I often can't hold onto spot positions, and I get itchy with contracts, which easily leads me to get liquidated... Later, I realized a piece of advice: don't let any single trade become "must win."


Now I get into the habit of first determining how much I could lose in the worst case (even if I really lose it, it won't affect my sleep), then work backwards to set my position size, and leave the rest to the market—don't try to force it.

Recently, the group has been talking about stablecoin regulation, reserve audits, and various "de-pegging" screenshots. It's true that there's some panic, but the more panicked you are, the more you should avoid heavy leverage and all-in bets, especially don't gamble on news with contracts.
In plain terms, position management isn't a talent—it's a habit: pause for two seconds before each order, set your exit strategy (stop loss/partial), avoid slippage and sandwich attacks if possible, and survive a bit longer before talking about making big profits.
