I found that the biggest difference between grid/DCA and a single trade isn't the profit, it's really the quality of sleep... The thrill of a single trade, pretending nothing's happening during the day, but at night, a phone vibration makes your heart race—like falling in love or being chased by debt collectors. Grid trading is more like "I admit I don't understand this," letting it slowly play out, with much smaller emotional swings.
Recently, everyone has been interpreting on-chain large transfers and abnormal movements in exchange hot and cold wallets as smart money, right? I also get the itch to follow, but honestly, following with assumptions is the most exhausting. A couple of days ago, I finally set reminders and limits for myself, and the most obvious change was: I no longer refresh every five minutes... It feels a bit empty, but also more solid. Anyway, I now prefer to earn a little less than to wake up scared every day.
