Just now my hand got itchy again. I saw a certain pool with green candlesticks floating all the way and wanted to chase, but I forced myself to stop for three seconds and ask: Did I really get any new information, or am I just being pushed along by the K-lines and the emotions in the group? To put it plainly, if there’s real information, at least it should be able to clearly explain “why buy now,” and “where I’ll admit defeat if I’m wrong.” If you can’t explain it, then don’t add to your position—at most, go check the on-chain transaction flow and how deep the routing is. Don’t rush in and get educated by slippage.

Recently, the new L1/L2s have started issuing incentives again to boost TVL. Veteran users complaining about “mining to sell” also isn’t without reason… When liquidity heats up, there are more failed trades + bad price impact. As a DEX crowd like me, I hate the moment when you place the order and everything morphs. My roommate even adds: Every time you say you’ll only add a tiny bit, in the end it all turns into a pot of porridge. Forget it—I’ll lower the slippage tonight instead. Even if it means getting filled more slowly.
