To be honest, that trade last night was really a bit stupid: seeing the price move quickly in the pool, I went straight for market order, with loose slippage settings, and ended up realizing the depth was not enough at all, the execution was stretched out, and when I tried to recover, I chased the price down, getting more and more anxious, paying extra fees in the process... my mindset just exploded.
Looking back, it was still a rhythm issue: with this kind of liquidity, you really shouldn't swallow it all at once, split it into several trades, and place limit orders slowly. Better to miss out than to let yourself become "liquidity." Recently, everyone has been comparing RWA, or the yields on US bonds, to on-chain yield products. I’m not sure which is more attractive, but the more "stable" something looks, the more you need to be clear whether you're earning interest or just gambling on depth and exit. For now, I’ll do that, and tonight I’ll tighten the slippage threshold a bit.
