Recently, I opened three consecutive trades, and all of them broke even, which really made me feel frustrated. I was optimistic about Ethereum's recent market movement today; from a technical perspective, the structure hasn't been broken, so there should still be room for an upward push. But I ended up selling myself short and now I regret it a little.



It's also my own fault. When I entered the position, I set a 10% profit target to take profits quickly as a precaution, with the original intention of avoiding losing on fees. But because I set it too tight, the market bounced back immediately upon touching the stop-loss, trapping me. Bitcoin's recent volatility has also been quite intense; let's see if it can break out of this consolidation range. As for Solana, its current performance is okay, but overall, it's still in the observation stage.

Through this operation, I realized one thing: setting a stop-loss really needs to match your trading cycle. Setting it too tight can make it easier to be shaken out. I need to adjust my strategy later and leave more room for the market.
ETH-2,68%
BTC-2,54%

Was washed out again, and I paid the transaction fee for nothing.

This stop loss is set as thin as a piece of paper, no wonder it gets washed out. --- Once again killed by my own bumper, hilarious. --- Take profit at ten points, market: I haven't even started yet. --- Wait, are you teaching me how to perfectly miss the upward wave? --- I also have no good face with this BTC fluctuation, but at least I didn't fight with my own stop loss. --- This tight stop loss strategy should have been changed long ago. Playing like this all the time will eventually get washed out to tears. --- What's the use of just regretting? Next time, I'll still operate the same way. --- Saur is still observing, I'm so exhausted from watching.

Setting stop-loss too tight is really digging your own grave, I understand that very well. Even with three consecutive wins, breaking even is more frustrating than losing money. ETH definitely should have gone up this time, so why did it just come out?

Getting washed out again, so exhausting. Hitting three draws in a row is really torturous, which is why I now have a more relaxed stop-loss. That 10% setting is really funny; the market just rebounds with a scare, I've done that before. ETH can still go up, it's just that I didn't hold on, purely a technical issue. BTC has been volatile these days, need to be patient and wait for the range to break. Still watching Sol, no particular opinion, anyway, cutting losses is the stupidest. If the stop-loss gets stuck, it’s dead. Honestly, this lesson's tuition isn’t cheap.
