Last night I paid my tuition again. I originally wanted to take advantage of small fluctuations to make a quick trade, but the slippage completely stunned me... To be honest, I was only watching the price and didn't check the depth first. I placed an order, ate one layer, then the price kept sweeping upward. I was rushing and greedy, and two consecutive trades raised my cost basis. When the stop-loss was triggered, it turned into "buying out of impulse, selling out of panic." Reflecting on it, there are three points:
Don't force market orders in a small pool, place orders gradually and slowly;
Check the order book first to see if it can handle your order before placing it;
When volatility is high, don't be overconfident—better to miss out than to lose.
Recently, everyone has been talking about testnet incentives, point expectations, and guessing whether the mainnet will issue tokens. I’ll just follow the rules for now—don't turn your position into a gamble just for a "possible airdrop."
Saved a screenshot as a reminder to myself not to get itchy next time.
