Seeing a leading exchange's 30-day trading volume surpassing $20 billion, I didn't just marvel at "these numbers are huge."

Instead, I started asking myself:

Do I really want to operate at this speed?

Using this metric to compare with my own pace, I realized a question. The speed at which this industry operates is completely different from the rhythm most people are used to. Behind the $20 billion 30-day trading volume, what is there? It is the market's relentless trading pulse, the 24-hour battle between institutions and retail investors, and the price re-pricing happening every second.

The question isn't whether it can be done, but—whether it's worth it? What are the costs?

Can't keep going, to be honest. The 24-hour monitoring routine really isn't suitable for me.

It's really a bit crazy to go this far; how exhausting must it be to keep your mind working nonstop for 24 hours?

To be honest, I really can't handle exchanges of this scale. Monitoring 24 hours a day? I don't have the energy, nor do I have the heart.

It's killing people, this pace is really not something ordinary people can keep up with.

nah fr, 200B in 30 days sounds insane till you realize most of that is just weak hands capitulating & retail getting liquidated. the real alpha? it's in the accumulation phase when nobody's watching, not in chasing every tick. costs you mentally tho, that's what they don't tell you.
