Today’s weather is stuffy like a traffic jam on an overpass, my coffee cooled down after sitting for a while… Suddenly I thought of trading as the same flavor: if you want to sleep soundly, don’t keep thinking about flooring the accelerator and “full throttle.” When the network is crowded, there are a bunch of cars rushing ahead; rushing in isn’t bravery, it’s like forcing yourself into someone else’s navigation route.
Grid/DCA, to put it simply, is slowly moving the car, leaving yourself some braking distance; whether you make money or not is another matter, but at least you won’t be woken up by a pin piercing through you in the middle of the night. Conversely, full throttle is very exhilarating, like driving sports mode in the rain—pressing down at that moment really makes your heart race… but you have to accept that slipping can come just as quickly.
Recently, Meme and celebrity signals have become popular again, attention shifts like traffic lights at an intersection—when the green light is on, everyone crowds in, and the last car basically takes the blame. Veteran players advise newcomers not to take the final baton, and I think it also applies to myself: the strategy that lets you sleep is the strategy you can stick to long-term. For now, let’s keep it simple—don’t turn trading into a late-night speed race.
