These past two days, memes have been ridiculously hot again. With just a celebrity casually saying a single line, you can have everyone’s attention pulled over… It looks lively, and I get that itch too, but honestly, setups like this are the easiest way to end up losing track of your stop-loss. My approach is pretty old-school: first, assume that you’re the “last baton.” The moment you enter, you write the exit conditions in stone—if it drops below where you set it, that’s the point you accept. Even if it gets pulled back the very next second, you don’t change anything. Otherwise, you’re just dating your emotions.
I truly believe what veteran players tell newcomers—don’t take the last baton. Especially when attention rotates so fast: when it’s going up, everything is just stories; when it’s going down, there isn’t even so much as an explanation. In any case, I’d rather be laughed at for being timid than go through another night like that—the kind where you don’t cut losses, and it hurts even more. For now, that’s it. I’m going to get to work.
