I found that this "slow and steady" approach like grid/DCA is really like buying sleep quality... I used to love to go all-in in one shot, it felt great at the moment of entry, but afterward every candlestick seemed like a countdown, staying up late scrolling on my phone until my eyes hurt and still not willing to sleep, honestly it's a battle with my own impulses.
Recently, I lowered my targets, not aiming for a big turnaround, just following a daily checklist: placing orders at the set time, stopping losses at the line, looking at the market a little less. Surprisingly, I can stick with it longer, and my mindset is more stable.
By the way, hardware wallets are almost out of stock, yet there are still a bunch of people clicking on phishing links, it's really ridiculous... I now prefer to be more cautious, double-check the domain name, better to miss out than to send my "life extension money" away. That's all for now.
