I've been debating again these days whether grid/DCA or a single swing trade is more suitable for sleep... Honestly, a grid looks like reflections on the road after rain, like walking steadily but also like stepping on the edge of a puddle. Whether it makes money or not, at least the heartbeat isn't so frequent; a single swing trade is truly an all-night player. Opening a position feels great, but every time I check the funding rate afterward, it feels like waiting for a verdict. What's more annoying is that the on-chain tagging tools have recently been criticized for being laggy and misleading. I initially wanted to boost my confidence with "whale movements," but the more I looked, the more anxious I became. Anyway, I now lean towards small-position DCA plus a small amount of grid, and if I fall asleep, I just pretend I didn't see anything... and deal with it when I wake up.
