Lately, I’ve been so unsettled by floating losses that I can’t sleep soundly. My position isn’t big, but the impact of one red day and one green day on my heartbeat is completely asymmetrical. When I’m in floating profit, I just think, “Hmm, it’s fine,” and carry on with what I need to do. But the moment I’m in floating loss, I start imagining all kinds of worst-case scenarios. I pick up my phone and swipe for half an hour. To put it simply, it’s probably loss aversion—losing one dollar feels more like a warning bell than earning one dollar.
These past two days, there’s also been someone on-chain watching big transfers and spotting exchanges’ hot/cold wallet movements as “smart money.” I’ll glance at it too, but I quickly remind myself: you can watch the show, but don’t treat it like a compass. In any case, I’m still using the same approach: wait for confirmation, wait for a pullback, and only act after I’ve thought it through. Chasing pumps is really not my strength—wait it out. And somehow, my sleep comes back.
