We are all actually caught in the same dilemma.



In the information age, many people have sharp eyes. There are also many who can seize market signals early and discover investment opportunities. The key issue is not whether you can see the opportunity, but what to do after you see it.

Here, a real two-pronged dilemma is presented: one side is trading speed—handing funds over to a trading platform, where execution is fast, slippage is minimal, and fees are optimized, but you have to give up direct control of your funds; the other side is self-custody—assets are fully in your hands, providing a strong sense of security, but once you operate, you have to overcome delays, slippage, and complex processes.

In terms of thinking, we understand clearly, but in action, these practical constraints lock us tightly. Wanting to trade freely and execute quickly, wanting to protect assets and operate efficiently—often, you can't have both.

Where is the key to breaking this deadlock? Perhaps the answer lies in how to balance these two ends and find a trading method that belongs to you.

Basically, it's still a psychological game; knowing and doing are always worlds apart.

Honestly, it's really an unsolvable problem. Either get exploited by the platform or ruin yourself; there's no truly perfect solution in between.
