I’ve found that the way you trade isn’t really about who’s “more advanced”—it mainly comes down to whether you can actually fall asleep. Grid/DCA is pretty friendly for someone like me who loves to complain about gas fees: a slower pace, running orders on L2, so the fees don’t end up killing the vibe, and your mindset doesn’t get yanked around on the rollercoaster of the K-line chart. On the other hand, “all-in in one go” is basically trading sleep for stimulation—if you win, you feel like you’re the chosen one; if you lose, you end up tossing and turning at night, refreshing your wallet over and over.
Recently, the airdrop season is the same too. The point-based system makes it feel like clocking in for work, and the task platform sometimes goes as far as doing “anti-witch” measures… so I’m even less willing to stack my emotions on top of my positions. Anyway, my conclusion is pretty down-to-earth: what lets you stop staring at the charts is what suits you best.
