I find that grid/DCA strategies are more like “buying sleep for yourself,” especially for someone like me who is impatient and has OCD. I’m most afraid of being yanked awake in the middle of the night by a needle and thread to change parameters… Instead, it’s a nice, smooth shove-all-in feeling, but you have to accept that position fluctuations will act like RPC is randomly glitching—just unpredictable. And you don’t check the market right before bed, and you don’t give in to impulsively changing orders. Recently, the testnet incentives and points expectations also feel pretty similar: everyone wants to throw the whole thing into a “will the mainnet actually issue tokens?” bet with a single shove-all-in, but in reality it’s often signature failures, gas spiking, tasks not being recorded, and your mindset falling apart first. To put it plainly, only strategies that let people sleep soundly are truly correct.
What I don’t regret is… handing execution over to rules, so I don’t have to stare at it all the time—after all, watching more doesn’t necessarily make you earn more; it only makes you more annoyed.
