Honestly, I don’t really feel like making a fuss lately. I’ve been watching gas jump around all night, and it’s not worth it—better to split my position into a few smaller grid runs. Going all-in on that thing? In the daytime, you charge into it and your adrenaline spikes; at night, once you start thinking, “what if there’s a liquidation waterfall tomorrow morning,” you can’t even sleep soundly. I compromise with DCA a bit: buy in batches slowly. Anyway, since I hold spot, I’m not panicking—if there’s a meme frenzy or some celebrity calls out a buy, the old-timers always advise newcomers not to grab the last baton. I just take it as entertainment; I don’t dare to really rush in.
Once you’re running grids, your position’s average cost naturally gets pulled down. The chance of waking up in the middle of the night because your phone is buzzing is lower than if you went all-in on one small bet. Put simply, what’s a strategy that lets you sleep well? It’s when you turn off the screen, and the next day you wake up calm and can quietly scroll through the gas charts, instead of first kneeling and begging for the break-even price to come back.
What I don’t regret is that year when I put most of my position into steadier pools to mine—I didn’t chase the hot spots and go all-in on that wild little dog that blew up.
