Recently, someone has been watching large on-chain transfers and hot/cold wallet movements on exchanges and shouting "Smart money is coming," and I also get itchy to act. But after actually entering positions, I realize: unrealized losses are more frustrating than unrealized gains. When you're making money, the most you think about is "Should I take profits now?" When you're losing, your mind automatically starts writing audit reports: Did I overlook any risk points? Could the next move wipe me out? Then in the middle of the night, I wake up and open the app, even though nothing has actually changed...



Honestly, unrealized losses are like an alarm that keeps ringing without being turned off; unrealized gains are more like numbers on a screen—if you close them, it’s as if you never saw them. Next time, I plan to be more mechanical: set stop-loss/reduction conditions in advance and not change them based on emotional whims before bed. How do you prevent yourself from constantly staring at the charts?
