Lately, the more I watch, the more I feel that the most exhausting part of trading isn't the profit or loss, but the year-end record reconciliation... I usually talk about structure and net inflow with my mouth, keep an empty position and observe with my hands, and occasionally get itchy to make a couple of trades, but I’m too lazy to even save screenshots. Later, I think it’s pretty funny. Now I’ve learned my lesson: every time I deposit or withdraw funds, I first put the platform transaction records, on-chain transfer hashes, and reconciliation statements into a folder, and casually note down "Why buy / Why sell," otherwise later I’ll just be left wondering "What was I thinking at the time?" Also, I heard that some regions are increasing taxes and tightening compliance, which makes my expectations for deposits and withdrawals more sensitive. Anyway, I’d rather spend an extra two minutes gathering evidence now than get angry at myself at the end of the year. That’s it for now, leave the positions empty if possible.
