Last night, there was a block on the chain, and my order was queued in the mempool, making me doubt my life... You think clicking it will execute the trade, but actually it's just like slipping a small note into a crowd's line; someone in front adds a tip to cut in line, and you're left standing still, with the price bouncing back and forth, your mindset being ground down to dust. Even more ridiculous is that when it finally gets packaged, the slippage has already taught me a lesson: either execute at a position I don't want, or just fail and pay some fees for nothing, it all hurts anyway. Outside, people are still arguing about ETF capital flows and US stock risk appetite being interpreted together, and I feel like I'm placing an order while watching a weather forecast... Forget it, I closed the market page, went to get a drink, and avoided FOMO taking over again.
