Whenever a hot trend shifts, I tend to get itchy easily. Honestly, I'm afraid of "missing out" on the most lively narrative during that period, even though rationally I know most of the time, the excitement equals liquidity moving around. Recently, I saw someone complain about on-chain data tools, lagging label systems, and even being misled. I’ve become more calm: even "seemingly objective" dashboards may not keep up, so why should I use them to boost my confidence when placing orders...
My current simple approach is: first, shift my attention away from coin prices, and look at whether the underlying things have really improved, such as node/DA costs, data availability indicators, whether RPC is acting up again, or if the adoption of certain modular components is increasing. If I really want to chase hot topics, I can, but I set a "delay of one night before deciding" threshold for myself. If I still want to buy the next day, then I go ahead; many impulsive decisions just fade away on their own. Anyway, I don’t chase every wave, so I won’t be taxed by emotions every day.
