I’ve actually been pretty calm these past couple of days, maybe because I set a stupid rule for myself: if I can’t sleep, I go read the “Pre-Trade Checklist” instead of looking at the candlestick charts. To put it simply, terms like data availability, ordering, and finality sound intimidating, but I focus on one main point—just because a trade is executed and shown on-chain doesn’t mean it truly counts in the end; the order of who goes first or second can also turn your slippage into a joke. Recently, that main public chain is about to upgrade/maintain, and everyone in the group is guessing whether the ecosystem might relocate. I’m instead only concerned about this: will finality slow down during this period, and will my orders be more easily squeezed/undercut/held up. First, I cut my position size and tighten my stop-losses—don’t gamble with myself that “it should be fine.” I’m not that smart; I just rely on this kind of small habit to keep my hands in check.
