Last night, feeling a bit bored, I tried a small swing trade, and ended up getting educated by a slip: the K-line looked pretty smooth, but the moment I placed the order, the depth was as thin as paper. I even split my order into two to chase in, which was like raising my own price... To put it plainly, my rhythm was off, the more anxious I was, the more I lost.

Why did this happen?
Because I was only watching the price, forgetting to check the order book and liquidity pools first. If liquidity isn't enough, don’t force the trade.

Now I’ve added a simple rule for myself: for thin order books, split even smaller and be more patient with my orders. Better to miss out than chase.
My position is like a potted plant—prune it a bit, leave some water.
By the way, I thought of the economic collapse in blockchain games too: inflation coming together + studio squeezing, if the depth doesn’t keep up, the coin price spirals out of control—no one can escape... Anyway, I’ll keep my hands steady for now.
