Lately, I've been torn between grid/DCA and going all-in on a single trade, wondering which one suits my sleep better... To be honest, I'm impulsive; when my hands itch, going all-in is the most satisfying, but after that, I end up staring at the charts until 3 a.m., and the next day my brain feels like mush. Grid/DCA is like putting on an insurance strap for myself—whether I make money or not is another story, at least I don't treat every candlestick as a life event.
AI agents and automated trading are also quite divided: on one side, there's the narrative of "letting robots make you money" flying high, and on the other, the reckless opening of on-chain interaction permissions, signing without even looking—I find that terrifying. Anyway, my current principle is: the less authorization, the better; if I don't recognize the contract, I won't touch it, even if I miss out.
There's just too much information, which really causes anxiety. My filtering method is simple: first, map out wallet relationships to find out who is pumping blood into whom, then see whether I'm following the trend or following people. Sleeping well is better than anything; at least when I review, I won't curse myself too harshly.
