These days, I’ve been carried away by the excitement of memes again. Honestly, when the narrative comes together, my brain automatically mutes the risks. On the blockchain, I’ve noticed a few large transfers and some activity in exchange hot and cold wallets. The group immediately starts interpreting it as “smart money coming in,” but I see this more as a thermometer of sentiment now… not a compass I dare rely on.
My stop-loss method is simple: first, think clearly—if this position gets cut in half tomorrow, can I still sleep? If not, then cut the position down to a level where I can sleep. Then, pre-write my “price/condition to admit defeat,” and leave when the time comes—don’t bargain with myself.
I thought I could ride the wave of that large inflow for a while, but it turns out they might just be repositioning or changing addresses. I got a bit excited and almost chased the high, but luckily, the stop-loss I set earlier pulled me out. Anyway, memes tell stories, not contracts. Live to fight another day.
