These days, when I’m watching the market, I actually don’t obsess over the technicals as much—I’m paying more attention to interest rates and the market’s “are we willing to gamble or not” mood. When interest rates are high, money becomes even more picky, and my positions automatically get lighter: it’s not because I’m bearish. I just don’t want to be worn down by drawdowns until my mindset completely snaps. Either way, cash flow and sleep quality also count as returns.
What I fear most isn’t losing money—it’s knowing the risk appetite is shrinking while still hard-fighting, only to end up being forced to cut leverage at the worst possible point.
Recently, I’ve also been watching the “social mining” and “fan token” setup that goes with “attention is mining.” Put simply, it’s more like slapping emotions onto something you can price… It can be playable, but I’ll first calculate the cost, check whether the rules change, and whether the anti-bot (so-called “scammer”/“farming” actor) controls are strict. Otherwise, the excitement lasts for a while, and then all that’s left on the books is trading fees and regret. For now, that’s it—slowly, step by step.
