I’ve found that unrealized losses really are more likely to keep people up at night than unrealized gains… Even though during the day it only shows like -3%, -5%, in my head it automatically plays out: “Did I see it wrong?” “What should I do if it keeps dropping?” Basically, it’s loss aversion messing with you. On the flip side, when I have unrealized gains, I’m actually pretty calm—almost a bit skeptical—afraid that if I blink, it’ll all be given back.
Recently, the same thing is happening with this wave of AI Agents and automated trading. The hotter the narrative hype gets, the easier it is for people to treat the risks as “the system will handle it for me.” But every extra step in on-chain interaction is another pitfall—no one will do the security part for you while you sleep. My solution is pretty plain and simple: treat position redundancy as a “backup,” keep a few rounds of ammo, and don’t put all your strategy into a single script… In any case, having an exit route makes it easier to sleep soundly at night. That’s it for now.
