Looking at the trends of SOL and ETH, this recent dip has indeed been a bit tough. The total loss is less than 10%, but to be honest, this 10% tuition fee was worth it.

In these years of trading, the biggest lesson I've learned is: rushing to recover losses often leads to even more mistakes. I experienced this firsthand with CLO and DEEP—before the trend was clear, I forced my way in, resulting in repeated stop-losses, and the more I added, the more I lost. Now, looking at the daily chart of SOL, it’s still consolidating. Instead of guessing the direction, it’s better to let it give its own answer.

I used to think about bottom-fishing for bargains and entering early, but the market repeatedly taught me: acting without clear signals almost always results in losses. I particularly agree with a saying—losses are actually teaching you what true risk really is.

My current strategy is simple: when the trend isn’t clear, watch more and act less; once the signal is clear, follow decisively and cut losses without hesitation. Instead of relying on intuition and guesswork, it’s better to wait for the market to give a definitive direction.

So recently, I’ve mainly been in a wait-and-see mode. Opportunities will come eventually, and missing one move isn’t fatal; but making a wrong judgment might be irrecoverable.
