Today I forced myself to "pause" first, instead of scrolling through the market while placing orders. As for options, honestly, the time value is ticking away every day: the buyer is using time to exchange for potential, and even if the market stays still, it will be worn down; the seller, on the other hand, is collecting this "wear and tear fee," but once it really moves, the loss can be quite sharp, like picking up coins casually or encountering a steamroller occasionally.

Recently, the "profit stacking" of pledge and shared security systems has been criticized as a copycat scheme, and I also have some sympathy: stacking many small-probability risks together looks stable, but in reality, it’s just selling time, selling the tail. Anyway, my current approach is very simple: first stop scrolling, draw a small diagram, and ask myself—am I really buying time, or am I selling time? If I can't figure it out, I just stop for now.
