Lending and borrowing, it's not really about whether the market goes up or down happily, it's about how many steps away you are from the liquidation line. When I'm three steps away from the red line, I usually don't hold firm: first, I pay back a little on the borrowed side, even if it's just moving some idle funds in, to bring the health level back to a range where I can sleep peacefully; if I really don't want to pay back, I reduce leverage, cut down my position, better to earn less than be forcibly liquidated. Anyway, I trust the process, not "this time will rebound."
Should I wait and see if it pulls back?
If I don't wait, I don't know when the market will give me face.
Recently, modularization and DeFi layer storytelling developers are having a blast, users are confused, I’m about the same… understand first, then talk. For lending and borrowing, I only keep an eye on one thing: don’t touch my liquidation price, don’t let me be the one publicly executed on the chain. That’s all for now.
