These days, I see people getting caught up again as memes and celebrities call out signals, rushing in with excitement, and when it pulls back, they start saying "Wait a bit." Honestly, stop-losses are really like breakups: dragging it out without deleting or blocking, staring at it every day with a racing heart, and also paying some capital costs/opportunity costs as interest, the longer it lasts, the more painful it gets.

I'm not as worried about losses myself now as I am about stubbornly holding on even when I know it's wrong, eventually turning into an emotional position. Admitting defeat is embarrassing, but at least it frees up my mind to look for the next cleaner profit opportunity... The old players advising newcomers not to take the last hit sounds annoying, but when I think about it, they’re not wrong.

Anyway, I’ll cut off what needs to be cut first, and the rest… you know what I mean.
