I was stunned right at the open this morning—my holdings from last night have already shrunk significantly. This is the daily reality of the crypto market; a big turn can happen while you sleep. The market is so volatile that it really tests your mindset. This time, I’ve learned some lessons: entering at the wrong time, not setting proper stop-losses, using too much leverage... any one of these can put your account in serious trouble. Sometimes I think, instead of obsessing over K-line charts and pulling my hair out, it’s better to figure out how much volatility I can actually withstand.

actually... the whole "woke up and got rekt" narrative is just proof people don't understand their own risk tolerance parameters. like, have you even modeled your liquidation thresholds? ngl the real issue here isn't the market volatility—it's the trust assumption you're making in your own discipline, which tbh is rarely information-theoretically sound

Sleeping and waking up to a shrunk account, this is my daily haha --- Stop-loss is truly life, without it, it’s an explosion --- Leverage, once used for fun, you can’t go back --- Instead of watching the market every day, it’s better to think clearly about your own strength --- It’s time for tuition again, and I’ve learned quite a few lessons this year --- Mindset, once the K-line jumps, it’s all gone --- How much can I tolerate volatility? I’ve become numb now --- Timing is too difficult, often the opposite turns out to be my rhythm --- The phrase “account in danger” sounds so smooth

Sleeping and watching your account shrink—that's my daily routine haha --- Leverage is truly devilish; once you start, you can't stop --- Instead of watching the market every day, just go all-in and then sleep --- If you didn't set your stop-loss properly, you deserve to be caught; this time is just tuition --- The market loves to cause trouble when you're asleep --- Timing, in essence, is just gambling luck --- Same old advice: if you can't handle volatility, don't play with leverage --- Wake up to your account being in urgent trouble—that's Web3 for you --- No matter how complex the candlestick charts are, you can't make money; a good mindset is key --- First thing in the morning, seeing my account makes me want to smash my phone
