Most traders don’t lose because they picked the wrong coin, they lose because they had no exit plan when the pump finally came.
It’s easy to hold $BTC, $ETH, or a hot $SOL position on the way up and convince yourself “just a bit more.” Then the chart pulls back 15-30%, profits vanish, and suddenly you’re emotionally trapped.
A simple risk rule helps: decide your trims before the move happens. For example, if a trade is up 25%, you might take a small slice off. If it runs 50-100%, you can secure more while leaving a moonbag in case momentum continues.
The danger is thinking “holding strong” always means being smart. Sometimes it does. But in crypto, unrealized profit is not real profit until you actually take some off the table. The market rewards patience, but it also punishes greed fast.
Are you still holding your winners here, or trimming into strength?
