The most easily overlooked yet most cost-effective habit in DEX trading is the "trading log." Many people move on after each trade, relying on gut feeling for the next, resulting in repeated mistakes: forgetting to confirm slippage, selecting the wrong route, or failing to reclaim authorization. The irreversibility of DEX amplifies these small oversights into real costs, so you need to make your process a reusable record, not a disposable memory.
A more reliable approach is to keep a minimalist log: which path was used, what was the slippage range, what was the authorization range, was the execution successful, and were permissions reclaimed at the end? Only change one variable each time, clearly documenting it so you can reuse the same configuration next time. The log doesn't need to be long, but it needs to be consistent. Over time, you'll find that trading shifts from "relying on intuition" to "reusing records," resulting in a more stable rhythm and clearer post-trade analysis.
Treat your log as a second layer of protection: it allows you to maintain consistent execution amidst volatility and quickly pinpoint mistakes, preventing repeated losses from the same errors. Long-term advantages often belong to those who are willing to keep records, because they distill their experience into reusable assets.
