I found that the biggest difference between grid/DCA and a single trade isn't the profit, but whether you can sleep well... For someone like me who needs to think for an extra 30 seconds before placing an order, once I go all-in on a single trade, I start mentally calculating liquidation lines, waking up three times at night to check the candlesticks, and feeling exhausted the next day.

On the other hand, with grid/DCA, even if the gains are slower, having the mental space of "I can add or reduce" clearly improves sleep quality.

Recently, the funding rates have been extremely volatile again, and the group is arguing over whether a reversal is coming or if the bubble is just being squeezed further.
Honestly, what I’m more afraid of now is myself getting emotional and chasing after the market, only to be taught a lesson by the funding rates and volatility...
This is the third time, so I’ll leave it at that for now. Take it slow.
