Record this transaction. Seeing Ethereum surge, I felt internally that there would be a sudden crash, so I started shorting. I began shorting around 4560, with 100x leverage. However, the upward momentum was fierce, and my position was about to get liquidated. I had no choice but to hold. I sensed that there should be a pullback after 4800. I increased the margin and set the liquidation price to 4810. I was also very anxious. If it exceeded that, I would be liquidated. But I felt it would decrease; I just didn’t know when. As I was close to being liquidated, I continued to short, raising the shorting price. At the same time, I opened a long position to earn some money to offset the losses from the short. There were several times I wanted to close my position to lock in losses and restart. However, I was unwilling. The price fluctuated wildly, making it hard to control my emotions.
I kept holding on, keeping an eye on the candlestick chart. I told myself to trust my judgment.
Later, the Asian Basketball Championship match started, China defeated South Korea. The allure of this match far outweighed the candlestick chart. The match went relatively smoothly, and the Chinese men's basketball team advanced to the semifinals.
After the match ended, I opened the software and found that my short position was successful. A big player made a move. A 300% return is good enough. Time to take the profit.
Trading is a form of practice, a test of self-judgment, the balance of gain and loss, rationality and emotion, fear and desire.
Tonight, I won’t trade anymore, I’ll just sleep well. #美国7月PPI年率高于预期
