I’m the kind of person who usually likes to make checklists, but when it comes to trading, I actually care more about whether I can sleep. I’ll admit the “all-in, go for it” kind of thrill feels great—the moment you hit the button, my heartbeat really speeds up. But afterward it easily turns into waking up in the middle of the night to refresh the K-line chart, click again twice, and it’s still stuck—like I’m lining up to wait for fate’s verdict… Anyway, I don’t handle that very well.
Grid/DCA is like breaking your emotions into pieces. Whether you profit or not comes second—at least it keeps you from being yanked around by the market all day. Recently, Layer 2 has been arguing again about TPS, fees, and subsidies—who’s stronger, who’s better. To put it plainly, there’s too much noise. The more lively it gets, the more it makes you itchy to go for it. My approach is basically this: when I want to trade, I first write the plan into two lines. If I can’t write it out, then I don’t place an order. That’s my setup for now.
