Lying in bed at night, I scrolled through a few of my recent trades and found that letting the stop-loss drag on and on ultimately ended up costing even more, and I even burned a bunch of fees for nothing. Turns out it’s the same as in relationships—being indecisive and dragging things out just makes everything worse. Cutting losses early actually saves capital and energy to make the next trade. In plain terms, a stop-loss is a cheap stop-loss; stubbornly holding on is what gets truly expensive. I’ve also been seeing the community talk about MEV and ordering fairness lately, and it’s pretty interesting—but for small retail users like us who just want to earn a bit of interest safely, we might care more about not getting inexplicably eaten up by slippage. Anyway, I’m slowly learning now: if I lose, I admit it, and getting a good night’s sleep matters more than anything. What do you think…
