I just screwed up again: I wanted a small rebound, hesitated, and went all-in at market price, only to find that the depth was as thin as paper, and the router even looped around three times. The moment I executed, the slippage completely wiped out my profit and even caused a loss. To put it simply, it’s not the market tricking me, it’s my poor order timing: I got anxious when I saw the candlestick move, didn’t split the order first, didn’t check the pool depth, and didn’t place a limit order to wait. What’s even funnier is that in the group chat next door, people are still chasing the drama of “on-chain large transfers = smart money entering,” treating every move of the exchange’s hot and cold wallets as an order… Anyway, I’ve learned my lesson now. I’d rather earn less than keep giving my slippage as liquidity for others. That’s it for now, going to sleep.
