Just woke up and saw someone saying "spot can't hold, futures get liquidated," basically it boils down to one thing: you're not trading a position, you're trading emotions. Spot traders always want to go all-in, afraid of a pullback if it rises a little, afraid of going to zero if it drops a little; futures traders open too large, don't have time to set stop-losses, and get their character flaws exposed by the candlestick charts... I'm a bit slow now: I only allow myself to lose a small amount each time, the rest I pretend I didn't see, exit when I hit my preset loss, and take profits in batches, don't expect to catch the very top in one go. Recently, hardware wallets are out of stock, phishing links are everywhere, it feels like everyone's security awareness has improved, but that little confidence of "I'll hold on a bit longer" in trading is still pretty dangerous. Anyway, I prioritize just surviving first.
