I realize my biggest problem isn't not understanding projects, but inability to hold: when spot prices rise, I want to cash out; when there's a pullback, I get itchy to add more; futures are even more ridiculous, I watch the market once opened, and a big fluctuation makes my mentality explode first, and finally my position blows up too. To put it simply, position management is just plain human talk: don't mistake the impulse to "make more money" for a strategy, first decide if you can sleep at night in the worst-case scenario.

Now I treat futures like chili peppers—if I can avoid eating them, I don't eat; if I must, I only take a little, and even if I lose, it doesn't affect my work the next day.
My colleague was still talking last night about that inflation + studio farming in blockchain games, the coin prices are a mess, and after hearing it, I feel even more that you shouldn't gamble with the market's temper, keep your position smaller, verify slowly, there are always opportunities anyway.
