Today at 4 PM, the dual-currency investment I tested matured, and the $63,000 low-buy bitcoin:native order was executed. Honestly, I was a bit torn about this decision. Normally, today is the last trading day, and weekend market fluctuations are usually not significant. If I wanted to maximize returns, setting a sell order at $63,000 would have been a good choice. If it got executed, I’d essentially earn four days of interest for free, with my principal unchanged. If it didn’t get executed, I’d still maximize the interest.
Especially considering that Trump tends to pull some stunts every weekend, which isn’t great for the market, $63,000 seemed like a solid choice. But on the other hand, I instinctively felt that selling at $63,000 might be too low. After all, I believe there’s still a chance for the price to return to $64,000 next week. And if Trump backs down today, tonight and tomorrow’s rebound could be pretty decent too.
After some back-and-forth, I ultimately decided to stick to my original plan and set a sell order at $65,000. The trade-off is losing the interest from the past three days. If I had chosen $63,000, the interest would’ve been quite substantial, but at $65,000, it’s almost negligible.
Also, my own position is set to expire next Monday with a $65,000 sell order. Even though the order is already placed, I’m still feeling a bit conflicted
