Anyone following my journey toward **US$ 100** has probably noticed: the balance goes up, pulls back, tries to recover, and then falls again. And the effort doesn’t always translate into consistent growth.

📊 **Look what happened:**

💰 Balance on 14/09: **73,13 USDT**

🚀 Peak on 05/10: **85,11 USDT**

📉 Current balance: **73,41 USDT**

🎯 Goal: **100 USDT**

⏳ Remaining: **26,59 USDT**

We were more than US$ 11 above the starting value for this comparison, but then gave back a large part of our gains.

This raises an important question: **it’s not enough to watch the balance go up; we need to think about what to do when it rises and when it starts to lose momentum.**

🧠 I’m considering three options:

1️⃣ **Stick to the strategy:** give the positions time to recover, while accepting the volatility.

2️⃣ **Take some profits:** make the most of significant price rises by turning a portion of the gains into available funds, without necessarily selling everything.

3️⃣ **Reassess some positions:** identify whether any coin no longer justifies the risk it poses to the portfolio.

I don’t want to make decisions out of fear of a downturn, but I also don’t want to passively watch all my profits disappear. The challenge is finding a balance between giving my investments room to grow and protecting the gains I’ve made.

⚠️ The numbers show what’s happened so far, but they don’t guarantee the market’s next move. Any changes should take into account each asset, its risk, and the position’s actual performance.

💬 **Now I want to hear from you:**

👉 **Do you think I should change my strategy and start taking some profits when the coins rise significantly? Or hold everything and wait for the portfolio to reach US$100?**

I’d love to hear your honest opinions, especially from anyone who’s been in this situation. Let’s learn together! 🤝
