Same routine, fresh reminder. Today's reality check: looking good on paper doesn't mean anything. Paper profits will fool you quick—that's the trap most traders fall into. Your positions only matter when you actually close them. Until then? It's just a number on your screen, nothing more.

Paper profits are all fake; only actual realized gains count. Too many people don't understand this.

Paper gains are all virtual; only actual gains in the pocket count. How many times have I said this, yet some people still don't believe it.

ngl this hits different when you've watched tvl drain and unrealized gains evaporate in like 6 hours... technically speaking, if you look at the data most degens never actually realize they're just bag holders until it's too late

The fake paper gains are real, I fell for this trap before. I saw the account skyrocketing, but then a sudden crash made it all worthless.
