When the funding rate hits an extreme, the group starts arguing: is this a reversal or just more bubble squeezing? Honestly, I used to love fighting against the order book, thinking I could catch that one move, but most of the time the market teaches me: funding rates can be more outrageous, and prices can be even more irrational.

Now I prefer to "avoid volatility first," especially when my position is already comfortable, I’d rather cut a bit, slow down, than flip the whole position just to eat one more bite. It’s not impossible to take the other side, but I’ll wait until I can clearly write out a stop-loss reason; otherwise, it’s just emotional trading. Anyway, after reviewing, being able to listen to the next song alive is more important than guessing the chorus correctly.
