Finally cleared my position. To be honest, this time I really understood my own limits. From the afternoon when I started building the position until now, I’ve been nervously watching the market, and that feeling was truly torturous. A 56-hour holding period, every minute I was mentally preparing myself — not losing money is already a victory, that’s what I initially told myself for reassurance.

But I still couldn’t hold on. When I was doing contracts in the car, I thought I could adjust at any time, but in the end, I couldn’t endure it. However, looking at the results, after deducting fees, I still made about 1,000 yuan profit, so today’s trade was worth it. Sometimes admitting your limits is wiser than stubbornly holding on.

I’ve completely exited this ETH wave, and the remaining opportunities are left for friends who can hold on. I am truly exhausted now; I need to relax tonight and let myself recover from this tense trading state. Everyone has their own rhythm, and forcing change will only make things more exhausting.

Is 1000 bucks enough? Wow, this mindset is impressive, buddy. Watching the market for 2 hours really takes a toll, no wonder you can't hold on. Closing positions is good too, better than being trapped all the way, right? This wave of market行情确实折磨人，兄弟休息好就行 Admitting you can't hold on is better than爆仓, anyway it's all经验 Contracts are really a心理游戏, not everyone can play it. Profit of 1000 and you're out? I TM would lose four digits directly. 56 hours of market watching, buddy, you must be really resilient. Everyone's rhythm is indeed different, no need to follow the crowd and抗争. Getting out of ETH is the right move, this行情一言难尽 right now.

Surviving in 56 hours is already a win; those who understand themselves know this truth.

Me too, if you can't hold on, you just can't hold on. Forcing it only results in more losses. Knowing your own limits is actually the beginning of making money. A profit of 1000 yuan is not a problem; the real issue is sleep quality, brother. Trading contracts in the car definitely makes it easy to get carried away. Don't ask me how I know. You really need to rest well, or your mentality will break down if this continues. Staring at the screen for 56 hours is truly exhausting. I just stop watching to avoid feeling bad.

Haha, me too. Not being able to hold is really the biggest enemy. Getting a thousand yuan is enough, don’t struggle with yourself. Admitting that you're not good sometimes is more valuable than stubbornly fighting; you got that right. This wave of market fluctuations is indeed intense, getting out in time is not losing. If you're tired, just rest. Trading is all about mindset; if your mindset is broken, everything is useless. This is the fate of range traders; once you recognize it, you'll feel better. A profit of 1000 yuan is already a win; don’t compare yourself to those who boast endlessly. Honestly, there are too many people who can’t hold, but it’s good that you still reflect. Just exit if you need to; as long as the green mountains remain, you won’t worry about no firewood.

56 hours of almost blowing my mind, luckily I didn't lose, took 1000 bucks and ran, very wise If you can't hold on, you just can't hold on, why bother struggling with yourself Contracts are really addictive, it seems I need to learn to let go Knowing your own limits is half the victory, this kind of insight is pretty good Even if ETH rises again, I won't watch it anymore, life has other joys Everyone's tolerance is different, only when you understand this is it truly a win Staring at the market in the car every day, I advise you not to come anymore

I got off at 1000 yuan, my buddy, you really need to work on your mental resilience. I just can't hold on, I want to run as soon as I see the chart, that's my problem. Admitting that I'm not good at trading is much more comfortable than fighting hard, once I realize this, I start to profit. Spending 56 hours to get myself like this, what's the point? Isn't doing something else more enjoyable? I also avoided ETH this round, I’ve become more sober.

Haha, 1000 bucks just as a lesson, anyway no loss Speaking of which, this mindset game is the hardest, more torturous than technical analysis Staring at the screen in the car is really awesome, I just don't have that patience Your awareness is good, knowing when to withdraw means you’ve already won If you can't hold on, then you can't hold on, forcing yourself to endure will only make it worse, I totally understand Take a break first, there will be more opportunities later This time I was the same, about to break even and got scared, just like you Admitting your limits is actually growth, smarter than those who keep pushing blindly
