Lately, I've been debating again whether grid/DCA or a single swing trade is more suitable for people. After thinking it over, it really just depends on whether you can sleep well or not. Grid/DCA, to put it simply, is about smoothing out your emotions; whether you make big money or not, that's secondary. At least you won't wake up in the middle of the night scared by a needle.
A single swing trade is very satisfying, so satisfying that you start watching gas fees and the block production rhythm of the scheduler, and you can imagine "it's coming," then your sleep is directly shattered into small trades in L2...
These days, I've also seen people comparing RWA, US bond yields, and on-chain yield products, all talking about "more stable returns," but my personal feeling is: the more they talk about stability, the more I want to cut my positions into smaller pieces first, rather than betting my future sleep on it.
Anyway, I’m currently leaning towards DCA + a small, itchy hand-sized position, able to play the ecosystem without causing my heartbeat to race.
Which one are you? I’m off to work.
