Just reviewed the failed order from last night. To be honest, it’s not that I misread the direction; I just mistook “slippage” for decoration... Seeing the candlestick move quickly made me anxious, so I didn’t check the order book first and went all in, resulting in the execution price being pushed absurdly far away. Then it got more chaotic as I tried to average down, and my order timing completely collapsed.

What’s even more annoying is that in the group, these days, there are repeated screenshots about stablecoin regulation, reserve audits, and various “de-pegging” warnings. When emotions run high, my hands tremble even more. Clearly, I should slow down my order splitting and wait a bit, but I force myself to chase that one quick move.

From now on, I’ll set a silly rule for myself: check the order book first, then talk about slippage. Better to miss a small profit than rush to water the plants. Slippage, this thing, is really not something to be scared of.
