Recently, with network testing points, it’s really starting to feel like it’s shifting from “practice” to “I should be earning.” Once you default to expecting gains, it’s easy to get more and more hooked, ignoring Gas fees, time, and opportunity costs.

My stop-loss is simple and straightforward: set a total budget (money + time), and stop once it’s reached;
then set a “maximum number of tries” for each chain/each project—if after that you still don’t understand the rules or the interactions keep changing, just give up and don’t waste time on it.
By the way, many on-chain data tools and tagging systems are being criticized for lagging behind and being misleading.
I also don’t dare to take “what is a certain address doing” as a conclusion, at most as a reminder: don’t chase, don’t copy.
Honestly, I’m most afraid of mistaking practice for a task and losing control of the rhythm.
Light positions, staggered entries, set stop-losses properly—that’s how I’ll start.
