There was a bit of congestion on the chain just now, and my swap order was queued in the mempool to the point of questioning my life... Basically, signing your transaction doesn't mean it will be executed immediately; it’s just like slipping a small note into the "waiting room." At this point, either someone pays a higher fee to cut in line, and you wait patiently; or the price moves away first, and if the slippage protection triggers, it will fail immediately, but the fee will still be deducted, and the drawdown hasn't even happened yet—your emotions are already retreating.

What’s more awkward is that I also checked the labels on the on-chain data tools, only to find they update slowly, and some "smart money" labels look very intimidating, but in reality, they may have already changed addresses... Anyway, when the network is congested, I just play it safe: chase less, modify less, and prefer to wait for the next dip to act, rather than turning myself into a margin call standby.
