Yesterday I reminded everyone to pay attention to the opportunity with BNB. Now, let's look back at how I handled these two trades.
The first trade: entered at $802, exited at $872. At the time, I also placed a buy order at $845 hoping to get back in—but it didn't get filled, so I just watched it take off. For the second wave, my buy order at $844 was filled but I was stuck for a while. The night before last, during the US stock market rebound, BNB dropped to just over $810. My hand was on the buy button, but in the end, I hesitated and didn't add to my position. Just now, my sell order at $903 was executed, but now it looks like I might miss out on the $940 level again.
On paper, there's a profit, but honestly, the execution wasn't great. But then again, you really shouldn't expect to catch the absolute bottom and top in trading—want to capture every single move? That's only possible by building positions in batches. Playing spot like this at least keeps your mindset more stable.
I'll look for another opportunity later. Position management is much more important than trying to predict tops and bottoms.

Oh no, missed it again. This 940 move really feels a bit rough.

caught the 802-872 move but left chips on the table at 845... the pattern recognition screaming louder than my conviction, ngl. position sizing beats perfect entries every single time, yet here we are watching 940 like it's somebody else's wallet behavior

Oh no, this move is really a case of biting off more than you can chew out of sheer greed. You clearly made a profit but are still upset about not catching the whole move—this mindset needs some fixing.

Starting to regret it again, I was indeed a bit greedy this time.
