In plain terms, not holding spot is just because your hands are too idle, and getting liquidated on futures is because your hands are too heavy. A straightforward way to put it: split your "want to make" into several parts, keep one part as air and don't touch it; keep another as bullets, add more if there's a real pullback; only the remaining small portion is for you to get itchy and tinker with. Futures are simpler: first accept how much loss you're willing to tolerate, set your stop-loss and don't change it, and don't use leverage to "average down and turn a profit." Recently, Meme + celebrity calls that attention rotation, experienced players watch who’s taking the other side, not how touching the story is... Anyway, I only look at position size and risk control on my end, don’t be the last to drop the baton.
