I recently got caught by my own greed while doing leverage trading. I used 15% leverage to open the position, with a take-profit set at 2.37, planning to hold steadily for a day. In the morning, I saw someone else's post; they used 10% leverage to open over 1000, and started to profit at 2.14, which made me waver. At that time, the price was fluctuating around 2.22, and I kept debating whether to switch to full position and lower the leverage. In the end, I didn't dare to move and just went to work, which indirectly saved me. Later that evening, I checked the market, and luckily I didn't change anything. Still, I feel quite regretful—if I had followed the trend at that time, I could have gained an extra 2000 yuan. Although I didn't end up losing money, this was a real lesson—sometimes sticking to the original plan is more reliable than frequent adjustments.

This is a typical case of funding anxiety, changing strategies just by looking at others' holdings data. On-chain footprints show that most retail investors die like this.

Haha, this is a typical story of watching others make money while your own mindset collapses. I can strictly control my three kids, or I would have been wiped out long ago.
