I just reviewed a failed trade, and honestly, it wasn't the market that embarrassed me, it was my own impatience. At that time, I saw the price was going up and rushed to buy, with a pretty big slippage, and as a result, the pool depth wasn't enough at all. I threw in my order, and the price was pushed away by my own action... The trade was executed, but my mindset was instantly shattered. Later, I thought about it and realized that my order timing was really a step slow: first check the depth, place multiple smaller orders, don’t go all in at once. Recently, I’ve been talking about certain regions increasing taxes and tightening regulations, and with tighter expectations on deposits and withdrawals, the market becomes more fragile, and people tend to get emotional more easily. As an old lady, I definitely need to keep my hands in check. Anyway, remember one thing: a wallet is not a wishing well, and slippage is not a talisman.
