Lately, I keep seeing the group arguing again about grid trading versus going all-in. Me, I just pick the one that lets me sleep.

Honestly, I tried manual grid trading before too. I stared at the screen until 3:00 AM, and the returns still didn’t cover the cost of my eye drops. Now I switch to periodically throwing in a bit, set reminders, and then I don’t worry about it anymore. In the long run, the slippage that little bit causes isn’t as expensive as my loss of peace of mind.

I did see someone bring US Treasury yield products onto the chain to compare them. The yield rate numbers look pretty good, but I’m thinking—being able to hold safely until maturity is a completely different experience from having to get up in the middle of the night to see whether it’s de-anchored. Before choosing a tool, ask yourself which situation would actually make you crawl out of bed to operate.

I’m the kind of person who can fall asleep even when the market explodes. It’s not because I have a great mindset—it’s because I know that staying awake won’t help where I am.
