Stop-loss really is like a breakup; if you drag it out without clarifying, in the end, both your account and your heart bleed together. I used to always think "wait for the rebound," but the more I waited, the more it felt like I was paying interest: opportunity cost, slippage, and constantly monitoring the market to drain my emotions. Now I write my exit points in advance, trigger them when hit, even if I admit defeat, I see it as buying a lesson, at least freeing up my position to build a more stable portfolio.

Recently, the airdrop season also feels similar; with a points system and anti-witching measures, the grab-and-go traders are competing as if clocking in at work. I actually prefer doing fewer tasks and watching where the funds move on-chain... Anyway, chasing hot topics on a whim usually ends with relying on stop-losses to close the position. That's all for now; I realized a little more on my commute today.
