Recent trades have given me new insights into timing. This morning, I established a long position around 2.0666, expecting a smooth upward push. Unexpectedly, the market quickly retraced and hit my stop-loss level. Although I managed to control the risk, I still felt a bit dissatisfied. At 9:05, I found another seemingly good entry opportunity, but at a critical moment of chasing the order, I made a basic mistake—losing focus for a moment and being caught off guard by a large green candle. Now I am observing from the side, looking for possible rebound opportunities. This lesson was quite profound; it seems that besides technical analysis, mental resilience and reaction speed are equally crucial.

Bro, this round is really tough. Getting hit while distracted is truly deserved.

Dividing attention is truly the enemy of trading; it disappears in an instant.

Yeah, this wave really drained me mentally. Chasing orders and crashing is just routine now; I've experienced it countless times.

Uh... got stopped out again? Bro, you need to adjust your mindset. Getting distracted while chasing orders is too deadly.
