I am increasingly convinced that with grid/DCA strategies and such "slow and steady" approaches, the biggest benefit isn't how much you make, but being able to sleep peacefully. I used to try to swing trade once in a while, and it was really exciting, but the first thing I did when I woke up the next day was to check my phone, look at the market like checking body temperature, and my mindset was directly hijacked by trading.



Recently, AI Agents and automated trading have become popular again, and everyone is talking about "fully automated on-chain interactions." Honestly, what I fear most is that it will place impulsive orders for you and sign on your behalf... No matter how appealing the narrative, once permissions are granted and the contract is triggered, it’s that kind of gentle rug pull: not blowing you up immediately, but slowly draining you.

My simple method to avoid impulsive trading: first, close the trading interface, then check whether the contract permissions, token issuance, or internal wallets have changed; then set a "calm down for ten minutes" alarm for myself, and only consider buying again if I still want to after the alarm rings. Anyway, what I care about now is whether I can make money or not—whether I can keep my sleep intact is another matter.
