Honestly, position management in one plain, human-speak sentence: it’s not about how much you can make—it’s about how much you’re willing to endure before you obediently stop.

If you can’t hold spot, it’s usually because you don’t feel secure in your heart: you’re afraid it’ll drop back, and you’re also afraid it’ll rocket higher without you. For getting liquidated on contracts, it’s even simpler—you already know the probability is low, but you still somehow feel like you can power through it. In the end, it’s all emotions running the show, nothing to do with the market itself. Yesterday I even saw news about a cross-chain bridge being hacked and robbed—everyone’s learned to be more cautious now, waiting until it’s confirmed before making a move. Isn’t that another kind of “stop”? In crypto circles, sometimes being a little slower is safer than being a little faster.

I’m used to cross-checking on-chain data—for example, looking at fund flows and changes in positions—then comparing it with my own mental price levels. Basically, I set a line for myself: if it goes beyond my expectations, I stop, even if it goes up. Anyway, let’s do it this way for now—staying calm is never wrong.
