Stop-loss really is like a breakup; even when things clearly aren't right, you still drag it out, thinking "Just a little longer, maybe it'll turn around," only to find that the funding rate is deducted daily just like interest, and the longer you hold, the more it hurts. Honestly, I always wait until the last second to close, and my mindset has been worn down completely. When I review later, I realize: admitting defeat earlier would have let me sleep better.

By the way, hardware wallets have been out of stock lately, and the phishing links in the group are getting ridiculous. Now I always check the address and link before placing an order, even if it takes ten seconds longer. I’d rather miss out on a profit than lose my account over a scam.

As for "long-term," I’m not strict about it. For me, roughly a month to a quarter counts as long-term. Anything shorter than one or two weeks I mostly treat as emotional fluctuations—don’t argue with yourself. Anyway, surviving first is the priority, so there’s a next time to review.
