I just looked at the funding rates and they’re starting to get a bit extreme again, a bunch of people in the group are shouting "Open the counterparty position," I also feel itchy, but honestly I’m more afraid of those nasty fluctuations where they first hit your stop-loss to shake you out and then move in your direction... I just placed a small $20 order to test the waters, didn’t add more.

Recently, someone has been interpreting ETF capital flows, US stock risk appetite, and crypto market rises and falls as interconnected, which sounds quite reasonable, but when the market suddenly turns, it still proves them wrong. Anyway, my current approach is more about "hiding": when the rates are too exaggerated, I’d rather wait 15 minutes, place a small buy order at the floor as a placebo, earning less is better than being dragged around by emotions. I don’t chase highs in words, but my hands still tremble—sigh.
