Can’t hold spot positions, and contracts keep tempting me to add leverage—so the result is either selling too early or getting popped by a single price spike… Later I gave myself a piece of plain human language: cut down first the part that will keep you up at night. Don’t rely on faith for your position—use an emotional checkup: if watching the chart makes your heart race, it’s too heavy; if you start fantasizing about doubling, cut it back; and if you’re thinking “hold on a bit more,” you’re already over your limit.

Now I’m used to splitting it into three tiers: for the long term, treat it like a locked position and stop checking it all the time; for short-term trades, only use money where losses won’t affect your ability to line up and抢 mint; and for contracts, if I can avoid them, I avoid them—if I really have to touch them, I keep it so tiny it’s basically tuition.

Recently social mining and fan coins have been hot—attention can definitely swap for some stuff—but they also make it easiest to trick people into getting emotional and adding more… Anyway, I’ll first keep my position size under control, and we’ll talk about the rest later in terms of narrative.
