These days, memes are getting lively again, and I couldn't help but try a couple on DEX. To be honest, I didn't understand the narrative; I was just seeing if I could withstand the pullback. My stop-loss usually doesn't rely on "feelings," but rather sets a kind of alarm: before opening a position, think about the worst-case loss, and if it exceeds that, just cut it immediately—don't tell myself stories. Especially in pools with low liquidity, when slippage is amplified, losses can add up much faster than expected... If there's not enough depth, don't force it.
Another small observation: now there's a lot of noise about NFT royalties—creators want income, but traders say it affects liquidity. Meme tokens are pretty much the same; everyone wants "a narrative, some emotion," but when it comes to the secondary market, liquidity is everything. Anyway, I now prefer to earn a little less and prioritize being able to exit easily—that's the most important thing.
