Spot holdings are hard to hold, and contracts are easy to get liquidated. To be honest, it's not that you're not working hard, but that your positions are too "serious." Here's my straightforward advice: treat every trade as if you're going to be wrong, and first write down the worst-case scenario in your mind—how much can I lose at most if I'm wrong? Can I sleep peacefully? If yes, then go ahead; if not, then reduce your position.



For spot trading, I now only keep two types: the long-term holdings that you shouldn't watch every day, treating pullbacks as saving money; the short-term positions that you can cut at any time, don't hold on stubbornly. Contracts are even simpler—don't treat leverage as courage; keep your position small enough that even if it goes to zero, it won't affect your rhythm. Place your stop-loss at the point of "I admit I was wrong," not at "I hope it doesn't hit."

Recently, the Layer 2 community's arguments over TPS, fees, and subsidies have been a bit tiring. No matter how loud your mouth is, I won't cover your drawdowns... Anyway, I just follow my plan. Moving slowly is okay; just don't send yourself out of the game all at once.
