When I get the itch to chase a rally, I now pause for three seconds first and ask myself: Am I following the information, or am I being dragged along by K-line emotions? Honestly, people who truly have information won't be so impatient; most of the impatience comes from me staring at the screen until my head heats up...
Recently, everyone keeps mentioning pledge unlocks, token unlock calendars, and the anxiety about selling pressure flooding the feeds. I can get caught up in the rhythm too. But when I calm down and think about it, these "known events" are the easiest to turn into emotional amplifiers: you think you're making a judgment, but you're actually just looking for reasons to add to your position.
I've developed a "backup" habit for myself: before placing an order, I first write down how I plan to withdraw or remedy if I get proven wrong. Without this backup, I prefer not to act; after all, the market isn't short of opportunities, what’s lacking is the patience not to send myself out.
