Looking at the logic of the $LIGHT project, I still couldn't hold a heavy position in the end. Looking back now, the position size at that time was indeed too conservative. It's not that I didn't understand the project's direction, but I couldn't get a handle on the mindset. This kind of feeling is actually quite common — clearly judging the right direction, but the position size can't keep up, and later on, you can only watch helplessly. Maybe next time I need to be more decisive, or all the good planning will be in vain.

This is the moment when the Kelly formula fails; the variance of the mindset is always greater than the model's expected error.

Haha, this is my daily routine. Even if I get it right, I still can't make money.

Speaking of which, the mental state is indeed a tough hurdle, brother.
FOMO? Just go all in next time.
The projects you believe in, you can't bring yourself to act on them—that's a problem that needs fixing.
Being conservative is pointless; LIGHT really missed out on this wave.
You said you'd be decisive, but in the end, you chickened out.
Honestly, having the right direction doesn't help; you need the guts to follow through.
Next time, don't hesitate anymore—just trust yourself.

This is a typical case of knowing what to do but not taking action; in the end, it's your own mindset that holds you back.

That's the difference in execution; anyone can talk about plans on paper.

The mindset is indeed a powerful weapon; even if the judgment is correct, you can still end up losing.

This is a typical case of "choosing the right direction but not making money," so frustrating, brother.

The mindset is really a weakness; even if you get it right, it's still pointless.

Ah, this, my mentality really collapsed. It's truly tough to tell if I made the right call or just can't hold on.

Mindset issues are really incredible; whether you get it right or not, you still can't make money.
