#SKYAI I died from frequent trading. Only now do I fully understand that when you trade contracts, it’s about “using small to win big.” Each time I open a position, the profit-and-loss ratio is severely out of balance. I don’t dare to hold the trades that are in profit; if I lose, I just stubbornly hold on. On the 2nd, my short at 0.38498 held all the way down to 0.418, just to get to break-even and close. Then in the afternoon, I started going long at 0.3809. When I saw it might drop again, I opened a hedge by shorting. The short got closed at the lowest point. I thought getting back to even was enough, so I cut the long. By evening, I went short again—I was afraid that if I kept holding, I’d end up adding a heavy position. It went from 0.386 up to 0.4089. It felt like every time I kept running into the same scenario: after adding more, it reached 0.4127. At that moment, I even thought about opening a hedge to lock the position in place. But in the blink of an eye, the hesitation time got wasted, and it surged straight to 0.44. After that, I was forced to reduce my position. Unfortunately, I was too sleepy and fell asleep. The next day I woke up and got liquidated. The next day it crashed to 0.32. I also went long at 0.33441, but it’s a pity I didn’t hold on.
