Last night before bed, I was happily looking at my unrealized gains, but when I checked this morning—$50,000 just evaporated??

This volatility is just too intense! 😱 I know the market never sleeps, but does it have to pick the exact moment I fall asleep to go wild?

Looks like I need to set take-profit orders from now on, otherwise my heart can't handle this... Holding positions overnight is like opening a mystery box. Can any of you still sleep soundly at night?

Haha me too, last time I overnighted and got wiped out immediately. Now I don't even dare to check the market before bed. --- That's why I only do short-term trading. Holding positions overnight is just asking for pain. --- 50,000 wiped out? I just want to ask, does anyone still dare not to set a stop-loss? --- The market is craziest at 3 a.m. What are you all doing at that time? --- How many times have I said to take profit and cut losses? Yet some people still choose to suffer this loss. --- My advice is don't hold positions overnight, or you'll wake up every morning with a heart attack warning. --- This is the joy of crypto. Sleep and wake up back to square one.

50,000 is just gone like that, oh my god haha This is why I never hold overnight, sleep is precious Holding positions overnight is basically gambling, every time you're betting on the market's mood Stop-loss has seriously saved me so many times Black swans love to show up when you're sleeping soundly Setting alerts changed my life, bro

50,000 gone, that's why I don't dare to hold positions overnight, haha --- Take a nap and your account just evaporates, this market is really ruthless --- Setting take-profit and stop-loss is the key, otherwise every day is a heart-pounding ride --- I learned long ago, sleeping in crypto = gambling. Anyway, now I always close out intraday --- Going to sleep with unrealized profits, waking up to bankruptcy—the feeling is something only those who experience it understand --- Take-profit sounds easy but is hard to do, greed really can ruin everything --- Overnight positions? Not a chance, my heart can't take it

Let the 50,000 evaporate, it’s fine. This round of decline is just paving the way for the next rebirth. Just be patient and wait. --- Another day of being taught a lesson by the market, but this is exactly when your mindset is tested. --- It’s normal to have trouble sleeping during a bear market. The key is not to get scared out at the bottom range—that’s when the real loss happens. --- Set a take-profit? I think it’s better to adjust your mindset. Learning to ride out the cycle is the real skill. --- What does this kind of volatility mean?—opportunity is brewing. The deeper the drop, the more valuable the courage to build a position. --- Woke up to a shrinking account, but as long as the faith is still there, it’s fine. The phoenix will always rise again. --- Instead of worrying about overnight risk, think about whether this is really the point you should be focusing on at the bottom range. --- The market runs 24/7, but right now, repairing our own emotions is the most important task.

Damn, 50,000 just gone like that. Same thing happened to me yesterday. Before bed, I checked and it was up 3%. Woke up, it got cut in half. This market is really crazy. Holding positions overnight is just gambling, should have understood this earlier. Bro, do you even dare to sleep now? I set an alarm to wake up every hour and check. Feels like take profit and stop loss are the way to go, otherwise your mindset will just crash. That's why I'm only doing short-term trades now, quick in and out. Holding overnight positions is just insane.

Bro, I totally get this feeling. The sleep tax is the most expensive tax. You can still laugh after losing 50,000, but I’d be completely devastated. What’s the use of setting take-profit? When BTC plunges, you can’t even stop your losses in time. Can’t sleep at night at all, my mind is full of candlestick charts. This is the life of holding crypto—sweet dreams and nightmares are just one night apart.

Damn, this is the so-called "sleep tax," right? Even in the middle of the night, the market still takes a cut. That's why I now liquidate everything before bed. I'd rather miss out than have to sleepwalk and check my account at midnight. 50K just evaporated, man. You really need to set take-profit orders, or you'll have a heart attack every day. That's just how contracts are—you go to sleep and tens of thousands are gone. How can anyone sleep soundly? How are there still people daring to hold positions overnight? I'm really scared now.
