I tend to hold onto spot positions too loosely, wanting to sell as soon as it rises a bit; futures are even more outrageous, I get itchy and add leverage, then get liquidated by a single needle... Later, I summarized it into a simple phrase: don’t treat positions aimed at “making quick money” as “positions you can sleep soundly with.” If you can sleep well, keep the position small and slow, don’t check it frequently; if you want excitement, think of it as buying a ticket, set aside the worst-case scenario money first, stop when you’re wiped out, don’t add or top up.
Recently, AI Agents and automated trading are also quite popular, touted as if they can print money for you, but honestly, the more on-chain interactions and authorizations/signatures there are, the more pitfalls there are. I, who need to look at a transfer three times, really don’t dare to connect recklessly. Position management is actually also part of safety: don’t let one impulsive move shut down all your future options. We’ll chat again next time.
