Today, alpha is totally quiet. No new contracts deployed on-chain, and no airdrops from old coins. What a bleak start to the week.
I’m seriously using @GeniusOfficial because it has native Stop-loss and Take-profit features, executing logic directly on-chain, not on some centralized server conditions. The reason I’m bringing this up is that I once dug up an old on-chain record, looked at it for three seconds, then closed it. That money actually had a chance to be saved. During the alt season in 2024, I heavily invested in a project on the BNB chain. My directional judgment was correct, and the price nearly doubled. I didn’t take profits. The reason was pretty dumb—"just wait a bit longer". Then I fell asleep. When I woke up, the price had dropped below my cost line by another 30%. I just sat there, didn’t curse anyone or get anxious, just felt quiet. That kind of quiet is worse than crashing, because I knew it wasn’t just bad luck. #genius
Writing this reminds me of that morning when my mom called to ask if I had breakfast. I was staring at the candlestick chart, mumbling, and hung up. Now it seems pretty pointless. Anyway, I’ve always thought on-chain stop-losses are for newbies; seasoned players keep their eyes on the market for that sense of control. It was this arrogance that made me give back all the profits I could’ve locked in. Relying on your position safety by never sleeping is a ticking time bomb. Taleb once said—"Fragility comes from single points of failure." This made me realize we are that single point. Later, I started using @GeniusOfficial for native stop-losses and take-profits. I care more about not relying on platform servers than I’m willing to admit.
But the first time I set it up, I was ready to sleep, yet I got up at two in the morning to check again. That awkward feeling of handing over control took me two weeks to slowly let go. I mention this beforehand; otherwise, you might set it up, go to sleep, and wake up in the middle of the night checking it, thinking you didn’t set it right. Now, when I enter a large position, I set the range first and then turn off notifications. It’s a complete turnaround from two years ago.
We’ll see if it’s right at the end of the year.
