I tend to not hold spot positions for long, as soon as it rises a bit I want to take profits, but then I turn around and chase the high again; futures are even more ridiculous, clearly agreed to try small positions, but when I get itchy I add until liquidation, emotions stretch even more than the candlestick charts… To put it simply, position management boils down to one thing: don’t let any single trade flip your mindset.
Now I’ve set a rule for myself: only use a small amount of funds to “play around,” the rest should be treated as nonexistent.
Last night I also checked on the chain, a new wallet made three consecutive small transfers of USDC into exchanges (like 0x7c…a1), I knew someone was getting emotional again, but I held back anyway.
Recently, in the group, there’s been a heated debate about privacy coins, mixing, and the boundaries of compliance—some see it as freedom, others fear a one-size-fits-all approach, and after listening I think it’s better not to commit to a single narrative…
That’s it for now, slowly adjusting.
