Last night I was again too stupid: thinking "just one trade, quick in and out," but then I slipped and opened a big position, the depth was thin again, and I chased and fought twice, the more I fought, the more expensive it got. Finally, I looked and saw that the average transaction price was quite different from my expectation... To be honest, it’s not the market trapping me, it’s that I was too hasty with my order timing, seeing no liquidity on the order book and forcing my way in. From now on, I really need to be more honest—either split orders into smaller parts and place them slowly, or just avoid pools with poor liquidity altogether, to prevent emotional lessons from paying tuition.
Airdrop season is the same; the task platform’s anti-witch hunt is getting stricter, and the points system makes people feel like clocking in at work. It’s exhausting to watch. Anyway, after I muted the group, it suddenly became much quieter, fewer "who just jumped in" and "last day" urgings. My mindset stabilized, I waited until my emotions settled before acting, and if I missed out, so be it. That’s all for now.
