My biggest problem these past two years: when spot prices go up, I want to run; when futures get impulsive, I add leverage; in the end, I either can't hold on or get wiped out right in front of you. To put it simply, position management boils down to one thing: don't let any emotion drain your account in one go. The little money you can sleep soundly with should go into spot; the rest, if you want to tinker, treat as admission fee, set stop-losses in advance, accept it when it hits, and don't tell yourself stories.
Recently, there's been a lot of hype around AI Agents and automated trading, claiming to make money for you and think on your behalf... I care more about what permissions they took from me, what they signed, and whether I can revoke them. The profits are other people's screenshots; safety is on my own shoulders.
What I'm most afraid of missing isn't actually the opportunity, but the next time I fail to learn my lesson again.
