The funding rates have been drifting to some ridiculous levels these days, and a bunch of people in the group are shouting "go against the order book." I used to love to fight back, but honestly, in extreme situations, the market doesn't play by the rules, it first wears you down until you doubt everything, then it moves in the direction you want... Now I mostly focus on whether I can withstand the volatility, if I can't, I hide, even if it means earning less.

Plus, recently, the staking unlocks and token unlock calendar are being dug up every day, and the selling pressure anxiety kicks in, causing emotions to suddenly amplify. Going against the order book isn't impossible, but I keep my position very small, admit when I'm wrong, and don't let the feeling of being "smart" steer the rhythm off course. Anyway, I pull up my hoodie, observe first, understand before I act.
