Lately I keep seeing people arguing about data availability, ordering, finality… a bunch of nouns. Basically, I just follow one line: I place an order, what order is it being inserted into the block, how long before it’s considered “really counted,” and whether it can flip if something goes wrong. If I can understand these three points, other tricks don’t really affect my risk control much.

These days, a certain region is again discussing tax increases / tighter compliance, and as deposit and withdrawal expectations change, market sentiment becomes very obvious: with the same volatility, people are more likely to panic early. During my night shift watching perpetuals, I’m even lazier to guess policy details; there’s just too much information, it really causes anxiety… My filtering method is pretty crude: I only look at funding rates, open interest, and on-chain congestion. I treat everything else as noise. When emotions rise, I go wash my face, then come back and reduce positions or set stop-losses according to discipline—anyway, don’t argue with yourself.
