Stopping loss is really a bit like breaking up; the more you drag it out, the more you want to "give it one more chance," but as a result, the losses not only expand, but you also spend more time and effort. The premium for contracts/options and the funding rate are quietly eating away at you. Today, I marked the "hesitation" box in the recap chart with black: it's not the wrong direction that's the most painful, but stubbornly holding on when it's clearly wrong. Recently, everyone has been talking about how expectations of interest rate cuts, the US dollar index, and risk assets are all rising and falling together, and I also find it overwhelming... Anyway, the more uncertainty there is, the more I reduce my positions. If I’m wrong, I admit it, close it early, and save some mental energy.
