I’ve found I can’t hold onto my spot positions, and my contracts always tempt me to add more—until, in the end, either I sell at the top or I get liquidated… To put it plainly, it’s not that the technical side isn’t good—it’s that my position doesn’t have “throttling.” Here’s one piece of plain human advice: first, lock in the maximum loss, then think about how much you can make. For example, before every entry, ask yourself: if I’m really wrong and the market goes against me, how much am I willing to lose? Once it hits the line, reduce or withdraw—don’t lean on willpower to force yourself to hold on.

Lately, memes and celebrity trading calls have been getting hot again. Attention shifts so fast that newcomers are the most likely to catch the last round. I’m not pretending to be calm either—I’m calm because I’ve trained myself into a habit: before going to sleep, I take a quick look at the on-chain or exchange alert dashboard, mark the “points that could blow up,” and then the next day I follow the plan. Anyway, I’m not going to change course on a whim. That way, at least I won’t go full send with a full position just because I’m getting emotional.
