A trader's ETH long position has been steadily held for over half a month, during which it experienced multiple fluctuations—from unrealized gains to unrealized losses, and then a recovery from losses. At its peak, the unrealized profit exceeded 200,000, making it a rollercoaster of emotions. However, based on the current attitude, he has no plans to set a stop-loss for this position, demonstrating strong psychological resilience. From a technical and position size perspective, he offers a personal judgment: in the next ten days, ETH is very likely to experience a pullback, re-testing the cost basis. Such a long-term position facing psychological tests is not uncommon in the trading community. Whether the prediction will come true depends on the subsequent market movements.

Even with a floating profit of 200,000, I haven't sold. This mindset is indeed good, but I'm just worried that ten days later, it might suddenly drop below the cost line. At that point, even solid psychological preparation won't be enough.

Half a month of 200,000 in unrealized gains turning into unrealized losses—this mental resilience is real. I need to learn from it.

Unrealized profit of 200,000 and I haven't sold yet. My mental resilience is really strong; I would have sold early. A ten-day drawdown to test the cost basis? Then just take a gamble.

A floating profit of 200,000 in half a month, then a pullback. I'm truly impressed by such strong mental resilience. If it were me, I would have already exited.

A unrealized profit of 200,000 and still holding steady without stopping out—this mindset is truly exceptional. However, I bet that in ten days, he'll still be scared out by a pullback.

A profit of 200,000 in half a month, then a drop back down—this mindset truly requires deep cultivation. I can't help but sweat for him.

A profit of 200,000 in half a month and back to the break-even point—how strong must one's mentality be?

Haha, this mental toughness is indeed strong. I feel like this is just another way of saying gambler's mentality.
