I recently realized that I am the type of person who is particularly suited for long-term holding. The problem is, as long as I hold, I want to keep watching it, and the more diligently I watch, the harder it becomes to hold. For assets with threefold returns, I get a bit anxious when it only increases by one time; when a dark horse project doubles, I still can't hold on to that final doubling, all because I check too frequently. I only later realized that the only way to truly commit to long-term holding is to avoid looking at the market as much as possible after buying, pretending to forget about this investment. Conversely, those positions that are bought in small amounts and easily overlooked tend to be the most stable to hold.

This is the legendary "eye-catcher," right? The more diligently you watch, the faster you lose, haha.

This is the inner demon. The more I look at it, the more it hurts. Not seeing it makes me feel at ease.

Exactly, those coins I almost forgot about are actually skyrocketing.
---
Haha, me too. I get itchy when I watch the market, I have to block the charts to survive.
---
Got it. Next time I buy, I’ll delete the app so I don’t see it and get annoyed.
---
Really, constantly watching the market is just fighting with myself. It’s too exhausting.
---
This trick is brilliant. Now I deliberately ignore those positions and hold on tightly.
---
Buying less and still holding? This psychology is quite interesting.
---
Yes, yes, yes. The key is not to be controlled by the K-line. When I see it, I want to reverse my position.
---
So true. Those who can hold on are never the ones who are most optimistic.
---
My method is to transfer to a cold wallet, completely out of sight and out of mind.

That's psychological preparation. In plain terms, you have to deceive yourself.

Damn, isn't this me? The kind who wants to cut losses after just five minutes of watching the market.

This is me. The more diligently I watch the market, the more I lose. Not watching at all, I make money very quickly.
