I often can't hold onto spot positions, and futures are even worse; as soon as I get a little itchy, I send myself to liquidation... Later, I tell myself a piece of common sense: don't let any single trade determine your mood today. Only when your position is small enough for you to sleep well can you talk about "holding on." If I hadn't gone all-in right from the start and still thought I could turn things around with one trade, I probably wouldn't keep getting educated by the market.

Recently, I've seen everyone complain about miners/validators' income and MEV causing unfair ordering, honestly, you're racing for those few seconds on the chain, and the odds of winning aren't really on retail traders' side. Anyway, I now prefer to miss out rather than fight machines head-on; take it slow.
