These days, I got itchy again and wanted to chase a trade, staring at the candlestick charts more and more like "I missed out, so I have to make it up"... But honestly, my position is driven by emotion, and if I lose money, I can only blame my stubbornness. Especially now, with L2 arguing over TPS, fees, and ecosystem subsidies, it looks lively, but if it falls into governance budgets, it’s about: who gets the subsidies? How long do they last? Who verifies the KPIs? If no one is doing the work, don’t expect results.
Am I adding to my position?
No, I’m paying for my anxiety.
Anyway, my current approach is pretty simple: if I want to add, I first write down a sentence about "what new information I know," and if I can’t, I go brew a cup of water. I wait until the impulse passes before acting.
