Is unrealized loss really easier to keep you up until dawn than unrealized profit?


Anyway, that's how I am... When I make money, my brain automatically acts like nothing happened; when I lose, every candlestick seems to mock me, clearly just "not sold yet," but my heartbeat feels like I've already lost everything.
To put it simply, unrealized losses force you to make immediate decisions: cut or hold, add or not, pretend to be dead for how long; unrealized gains can be dragged out, since not selling isn't considered a mistake.
Recently, someone linked ETF capital flows, U.S. stock risk appetite, and crypto market rises and falls all together, and after reading it, I felt even more annoyed.
The more lively the macro narrative gets, the more I want to check on the chain to see if there's real withdrawal or accumulation.
Tonight's approach is still the usual: set a mindless stop-loss line, don't let emotions leverage themselves... for now, that's it.
