Today is a bit stuffy, and the traffic jam on the road made my coffee go cold... When I come back to check the market, there's a bunch of memes flooding the screen, it's really lively, but honestly what I fear most is my own itch to trade. Narratives come and go quickly, so I set my stop-loss very mechanically: first, think clearly about the maximum loss on this trade (a small part of the account), then exit at the target price, without adding to the position to "dilute" it, and without changing the rules just because the group is shouting loudly.



Recently, on the on-chain side, there's been more complaints about miner/validator income, MEV front-running, and unfair ordering—I understand, retail traders tend to get emotional and chase high when slippage is large. Anyway, I only watch two simple signals: when the funding rate starts to get ridiculously squeezed, or the basis between futures and spot widens abnormally, I remind myself not to be the last to hold the bag; if I really participate, I treat it like buying a lottery ticket—if I lose, I won't force it. That's it for now, discipline is more important than the plot.
