I just reviewed the loss from yesterday, and honestly it’s not that I misread the trend, but that I was careless: seeing the order book suddenly thin out, and still insisting on using market orders to “grab,” the slippage completely stunned me… When depth isn’t enough, pressing confirm one more time feels like giving others a fee.



Later, flipping through the chain was quite funny too, just happened to see a few large transfers and exchanges moving hot and cold wallets back and forth, and the group started shouting “Smart money is coming.” I’m just someone watching the surface, I really don’t dare to treat this kind of abnormal movement as a script; many times it’s just repositioning, consolidating, market making, and replenishing inventory, which has nothing to do with whether my order can be filled at a good price.

From now on, I plan to slow down: split into smaller orders, place limit orders, let the order book recover a bit before acting… don’t let my impatience get the best of me anymore, just start with this.
