This meme cycle is really lively to the point of dizziness, but honestly, the louder the narrative gets, the more I put “how to afford the loss” right up front.
My previous self: seeing everyone spam the screen and rushing in, thinking I’d wait for a pullback and then go—but that pullback turned into a bottomless pit. Now, I basically set a specific price/time point before I open a position: if it hits, I leave. I don’t spin stories for myself. Even if it flies again later, that’s fine—I’ll just pay a little less in emotional cost.
The same goes for airdrop season. The task platforms’ anti-sybil measures make the points feel like clocking in for work; the more you grind, the easier it is to get carried away, go back in to top up, and chase the hotspots. I’m sticking hard to my budget now: meme trades use only small positions. If my loss reaches a certain number, I clear the position immediately—never adding to average down… After all, these are the steps that can be repeated; I don’t believe in mysticism.
