Today I saw someone post a screenshot of "whales entering the market" again, and the comment section immediately started to get heated... I really don't dare to follow along now. To be honest, whether that whale's move was building a position or hedging, if you don't understand the context clearly, copying trades can easily turn into stepping stones for others' risk control. Anyway, I set a simple rule for myself: when I see a large order, I first close the order page, go pour a glass of water, and then check again if the on-chain transactions before and after are just moving back and forth, or if there's a pattern of opening opposite positions at the same time; if I still feel tempted, I try a small position first, don’t go all in at once. Recently, hardware wallets are out of stock again, phishing links are everywhere, and during times like this, it’s easier to get caught up and make mistakes... I’d rather earn a little less on snacks than choke on a bad trade. That’s all for now.
