Just now, I got a bit itchy and wanted to chase a move, almost pressed the keyboard down, then suddenly stopped: was it because I saw new information, or was I just being pushed along by the excitement of the market? Honestly, many times I think I am "judging," but really I am just finding reasons for my emotions, then conveniently raising my position.

Recently, L2 traders are competing over TPS, fees, and subsidies, arguing quite fiercely. I also get caught up in this "narrative is coming" atmosphere. But having traded in small pools, I know that paper gains can be very deceptive; slippage, volatility, and impermanent loss stack up, and in the end, you might not have made anything.

So my current clumsy method: before placing an order, write down a sentence—what information am I actually buying? If I can only write "everyone is rushing," then forget it for now, and check again later.
