You can’t hold your spot positions, and your contracts always end up getting overextended and blown up. To put it plainly, it’s not that you aren’t trying—your position is like a pile of dry firewood: if you pack it too full, it catches fire easily, and once it starts, you can’t put it out. I’m going to go with the “firewood approach” now: leave half aside so it stays put, and only use the remaining part to slowly add. If the market drops, you can still add more, so you won’t end up panicking just because you got knocked out by one misstep.
Contracts are even simpler: if you can avoid touching them, don’t. If you really have to touch them, only use that amount where, “after you sleep and wake up, even if you’re in loss, it doesn’t affect your life.” Don’t expect to turn things around with one comeback.
Recently, memes and celebrities’ trade call-and-follow recommendations have been getting hot again. It looks lively, but once your attention shifts, it’s gone. Newcomers, don’t rush to grab the last baton—take your time instead, and you’ll be more stable.
