These days, I can clearly feel that liquidity is a bit dry, and when the market depth is thin, I get itchy to "pick up bargains," but honestly, at times like this, it's better to survive first and talk about bottom-fishing later.
In the group, there's also a debate about whether the extreme funding rate is about to reverse or if the bubble will continue to be squeezed; hearing that makes me even more hesitant to act...
My current habit to prevent impulsiveness is: first close the order placement page, then check the cold wallet addresses and authorization records, reminding myself "Better to miss out than get swept away."
If I really do it, I only allow myself to test with small amounts in several tries, then wait overnight to see, and ignore the impulsive rush that makes me act recklessly.
For now, that's the plan—saving my life is the priority.
