Last night I paid my tuition again... I originally wanted to add to my position during a small fluctuation, but I ended up stepping into my own trap: I saw what looked like volume on the order book, and with a quick move, I swept at market price, but the slippage suddenly turned out to be more than I expected. After the trade, I realized the depth couldn't really support that amount, in plain terms, I was just too impatient.

Looking back, there are really only three things: don’t just look at the price, first glance at the depth; don’t throw all your orders in at once, split them into two or three, slow down the rhythm; if you really want certainty at that moment, just use limit orders honestly, don’t fantasize about fast and good.

Recently, a new L1/L2 incentive launched and boosted TVL to a shiny high, and veteran users complain about “mining, selling,” I get it... liquidity looks lively, but in reality, once you withdraw, it’s empty. Anyway, I still sound pessimistic, but I still believe: at least real users and retention won’t lie. That’s it for now, next time I won’t let my own quick hands trap me again.
