That little bit of money actually hasn't lost much, but my brain automatically adds drama to it: what if it keeps falling, should I sell early, did I make a mistake... Unrealized gains instead feel like "not counted until it's in the pocket," so looking at a loss before bed is more intense than looking at a profit. To put it simply, losses force you to make decisions immediately, while profits only make you procrastinate.


My current clumsy method: before placing an order, write down the "worst-case scenario" (how much I could lose, what the trigger conditions are), then set the stop-loss/cancel order line, and don't rely on midnight emotions to change strategies. Recently, the discussions in the group about privacy coins, coin mixing, and compliance boundaries are all the same: when uncertainty rises, people are more likely to think of risk as infinite... Anyway, I only focus on the part I can clearly explain, sleep is more important.
