Last night, I got a little impulsive and placed a small order, only to be educated by the slippage... Honestly, I trusted "it looks like there's volume" too much. The order was so thin it was like paper, and I even threw in a market order all at once, causing the price to be pushed up all the way. When I tried to fix it later, I was rushing to chase, messing up the rhythm, and the more I added, the more I lost. After reviewing, I realized three points: if there's not enough depth, don't force it with a market order; if you want to enter, split it into several parts and take your time, don't fight yourself; and also, during extreme times like high funding rates, the market sentiment is very fragile. Everyone is arguing whether to reverse or keep pumping the bubble, but I, as a low-frequency trader, should instead wait for it to calm down. By the way, my colleague glanced and said, "Aren't you just rushing to be the bag holder?" I was silent on the spot... For now, I’ll leave it at that, go back, brew some tea, and calm down.
