My biggest lesson in the past two years: I can't hold onto spot positions, and I keep wanting to "open more contracts" with futures. In the end, I either sell out of impatience or get liquidated by a single spike.

Position management, in simple terms, is—treat "staying alive" as the goal: only keep the spot positions I’m willing to leave untouched for a year; use futures as a temporary tool, and when losses hit a certain point, accept it and close out, don’t expect it to turn things around for me.

Recently, airdrop season feels like clocking in at work, with task platforms even turning against witches, and the points system making everyone more anxious and competitive. I also get tempted, but since I don’t make earning from airdrops my main job, missing out is fine.
And I no longer chase explanations; often, the market is just random. The only thing I can do is position myself so I won’t get kicked out easily.
That’s all for now.
