I am increasingly feeling that things like grid/DCA are not about earning returns, but about sleeping...
As someone who has been perpetually unlucky, I get itchy and want to make a quick move, and it feels really good in that moment.
Looking back at the liquidation records, I just want to slap myself.
Honestly, if you have shallow sleep and still need to work during the day, don’t fall in love with leverage.
Grid trading is slower, but your heartbeat will be slower too.
Recently, AI Agents and automated trading have been hyped up again, and I was tempted too.
But then I thought about all the authorization, private keys, and contract risks involved in on-chain interactions...
Forget it, I’m not destined to chase “intelligence” for now.
First, learn how to “stay alive.”
A couple of days ago, I followed some aggressive traders, and seeing them post daily profits made me FOMO.
My hand even reached for the open position button, but I calmed down and unfollowed them...
Not looking at it really helps with the itch.
Let’s leave it at that for now, and tonight I’ll try to get a full night’s sleep.
