Last night, I couldn't hold a single trade; after reviewing, it’s not really about the wrong direction, but I was drifting on the “order placement rhythm.” Staring at the funding rate flickering, I quickly jumped in at market price, and at that moment, the depth was as thin as paper, and the slippage directly pushed my stop-loss out of place. I had set discipline, but executing it still felt like rushing for tickets...

Thinking back, placing an order and waiting a second, splitting it into two trades, or checking if the order book is thick enough might have saved me. Forget it, to put it plainly: don’t fight liquidity when your emotions are high; it won’t indulge you.

Recently, everyone’s been hyping AI Agents and automated trading, which look “smart,” but on-chain interactions with all those authorizations, slippage, and retries—missing the details on safety makes a huge difference. Anyway, my night-shift security guard routine is still the same: first, think through the worst-case scenario, then press the button; otherwise, I won’t even have time to wash my face.
