I realize that my tolerance for unrealized losses is much worse than for unrealized gains. I haven't even sold yet, but my mind automatically treats that small loss as "already lost," tossing and turning at night thinking about whether to cut my losses; conversely, unrealized gains are easily seen as luck, and I worry about them disappearing after a night's sleep. To put it simply, losses feel more like a hit to my self-esteem, while gains make me hesitant to believe them.



Recently, everyone has been arguing about data tools on the chain, lagging label systems, and even the potential for being misled. I also feel a bit of empathy: watching the "smart money" labels moving in and out, it actually seems more like chasing a playback with high delay, making emotions more easily pulled along. Now, the "backup" I do for myself isn't about opening more positions, but rather pre-writing where I will accept a drop and where I will admit fault, leaving some redundancy for my mind. Otherwise, every fluctuation feels like rewriting the script in real-time, which is too draining on sleep. Let's leave it at that for now.
