I realize that my biggest problem isn't that I can't read charts, but that I can't hold my positions: when spot prices go up, I want to sell; when contracts pull back, I start adding more; in the end, I either miss out or get liquidated... To put it simply, position management boils down to one thing: don't bet with "money you can't sleep at night" on the market direction. The part I can relax about should be treated as savings, and if I really want to do swing trading, I should only take a small portion, so losing it won't affect my mindset; as for leverage, it's even more important—before opening a position, assume the worst-case scenario and ask myself if I can accept it. If not, don't touch it. Recently, there's been talk about increasing taxes and tightening regulations in certain regions, then loosening again, causing deposit and withdrawal expectations to fluctuate, which makes people more impulsive. So I simply reduce my trading frequency; moving slower makes it less likely to make mistakes.
