Do you regret when you miss selling at ATH followed by a correction

[gabbie2010]

almost everyone has experienced a situation like this where they regretted after selling or regretted not selling so my advice is better to set your profit target and don't care about anything that happens after you make a decision because greed often makes us regret

I fell into such trap of not selling at peaks on several occasions, infact even more as a crypto trader, it is an experience that is very annoying, atimes it's due to greediness on my part, however I had learnt my lessons and seek more knowledge to avert an occurrence and to determine the appropriate period of selling at peak with the aid of some technical indicators like RSI and Bollinga Band.
Moreso it's quite unfortunate that some newbies buys at the peak consequently the price dump and they ended up losing after a massive dump in the price of that particular crypto.

I do not have any such regrets, but mind you that it could be as a result of the fact that I hodl Bitcoin, and I do not plan to sell in the close future, and also because it is a long term project that thus if there is a correction, I just accumulate more and watch it rise back up again. But all that can only be applicable when you're holding a long term sustainable coin, but if it's for pump and dump or low value coins, I'm pretty sure I'd regret if I don't sell when I ought to, and that's only cause many of such coins pump then dump later and could possibly not rise again, so if you're in possession of a coin you do not so much believe in, best thing to do is to sell when you have accrued profit.

It often become a good opportunity when you sell at a peak and after that the correction come and you buy again with low price but many people miss that opportunity who then regret but I do not regret when I miss that opportunity because I do not do greed and remain satisfied with my current amount of coins and I know in the future the price will grow again to another ATH and my current coins are enough to give me enough profit. With this thought I keep myself tension free.

What is your views and conditions at that time?

No one knows what the peak is going to be, so what's  there to regret? What if you thought that the price has reached ATH, you sold, but then you see that the price is going for another ATH. Will you be regretting? Don't. Instead, set a profit goal. Keep holding until you reach your profit goal. Doesn't matter if the ATH is going to happen or not. If you have made your profit and you are ready to sell, then sell. Reinvest if you want (and if you are able to afford), hold and then sell again. Keep doing this and you will be making some good profit. Remember, you should only regret if you make a loss because you sold when you didn't have to.

As long as you decide to sell at ATH or under ATH as long as it is profitable without any regrets,

Of course, if you could sell your coins and got enough profits, doesn't matter whether in ATH or under ATH. The problem is when you bought in ATH, then you still hold the coins till today. I also experienced it, and I guess there are many people who have the same problems. For the people who experience it, they must regret NOT selling in ATH. But surely we must have another chance to sell it as long as the coins are good coins. At least, the chance probably comes in the next Bullrun that people predict in 2025. How about you? Do you experience it or not?

It's not easy to buy at the bottom and sell at the high. Because, our calculations do not always give accurate results. Luck doesn't always smile on us. Best: Buy incrementally and sell incrementally (continue to buy as prices fall, continue to sell as prices rise). So you make the best sales on average.

[TelolettOm]

What is your views and conditions at that time?

Of course, I will regret it, moreover when the price dropped very suddenly and missed the chance to sell in the ATH because of my greediness. What I regret is because:
- Why I was so greedy
- Why I lose the chance to take profits with a higher amount
- Why I should panic when the price keeps dropping and then take profits even the amount is small

Regret will be always there. That is why we are learning from our own experince, not to be greedy again, always set a target, not really wanting to get higher and higher prices again. If it is enough, just take profits because we don;t know even it will rise up again or not.

I am that person as always! I don't know if there's a magic on it that whenever I sell, after that, the price of rises. Isn't that a type of sorcery? Just kidding.
But that's the reality that when I sell, price rises. Whether it would be from the price of ATH or not. And whenever we sell, it's always to catch up the ATH so that there's no regret since after that the price will start to fall.

As long as you profited from your selling position it's not bad even the value continue to rise high, profits still a profit as good traders always look for another opportunities and never to look back, it will just delay the progress if you continue to dwell with that miss opportunities, try to enhance your knowledge it will broader your anticipation and in the next ride you'll be able to maximize your benefits.

Learn and keep learning. That's how we should treat this venue of investment, keep moving forward for more profitable trade to achieve.

It shouldn't matter much if your are investing for a long term as your investment most likely will be profitable at the end putting into consideration the type of coins you invested in  coins with utilities like Bitcoin, Ethereum and maybe BNB can always be profitable on the long run but those only been hyped are not to be held or you will regret it because they usually will get dumped after getting so hyped up so newbies rush into it with fomo meanwhile early investors are taking profit.

There are many coins that are yet to reach their previous all time highs and I do not think they will ever reach that price again because they have lost the momentum they had when they were just been hyped, with that in mind, know coins you should trade and that you should hold.

Sometimes I regret it when I didn't sell my tokens when the new ATH happened also I regret when I didn't buy when the price was very low. But as long as I hodl my current tokens and not sell them I won't regret much more because I believe cryptocoins will get their new ATH, it's only a matter of time. Don't let greed take your self to make the wrong decision.

It totally depends on oir financial situation and the track record of our coin in the portfolio, when someone invested for long term and also they can afford to lose some capital if the market becomes extremely bearish for long time.

What you are doing is the mindset of long term investor and for sure you will be getting the enough rewards.

[coinsycrip09]

yes of course it would be great if we could sell it at ATH, but only a few people might get lucky.
some people are successful at selling at ATH because they bought in the middle. and a holder from the outset is likely to rarely get the peak price (myself included).

maybe like you, because i'm not greedy, the important thing is that i've made a profit, so there's no problem with the new ATH.

[aylabadia05]

No one knows when the price has increased whether the coin price will increase again. There are several times that I have experienced that I often sell tokens or coins when the price is increasing. After I sold, the price of the token decreased.
For me, it's just luck.

Its quite normal having regrets for not selling at peaked price then the price suddenly had a huge dip. It happened to me many times in the past and all I can do is to accept what happened and be patient for the next opportunity to sell. For a greedy investors, this situation is often happening because they're thinking of bigger profit, so not taking advantage the peaked price is a choice. Well, there's nothing wrong with that as long as you can handle yourselves, its likely we all have preferred target price to sell. But lets not forget to take profit at times because we'll never know the future of our coins.

Even if you did not sell your coins at high, then after a certain time you will see that the coin has adjusted below your sale price, giving you the opportunity to buy it at a lower price. So do not worry about it, because few people can sell at high and buy at low.

The coins which reach all time high and retrace becasue people book thier profits who have bought at low prices. However, if you fail to sell those coins at all time high prices, you need not to worry. The coins will again reach ATH and even make new highs. So if you are able to hold the coins, you will be able to book better profits. Also it is almost impoosible for anyone to sell the crypto coins at all time high. No one can predict the exact top.

[MFahad]

Yes alot, i missed ATH on Cifi coin when it was 380$ and i sold at price of 100$ after smart correction.
Similarly i didnt sell Slp at Ath and the sell after corrections. I think now we should not wait more for coin to book profit. When our coin make 2x For us we should sell 70% from this coin.

[Vaculin]

I find this problem very common, where different returns and investments will give different strategies. I am comfortable with what I have planned, and no matter how it turns out, the original decision should be respected. It is possible that complicated developments cause psychological fluctuations, but if you are a decisive person, you will always see new opportunities better and do not appear wiser than others when achieving success in a short time.

Well, i don't see myself regretting from this situation because i always believe that there will always be another bull run so why not invest more and hold again before its new ATH. Though regrets are sometimes unavoidable, but it will only lost your focus on the goal that you want to achieve so its not really helping. And the fact, that you don't lose your coin that time, i think there's no reason to regrets. Just invest more and set your ideal price when to sell so you won't be losing another opportunity to make profits.

[bhadz]

This happens to everyone

Yes, it happened to me not just once but many times.

I'm also like that. Like if I've decided to sell at $45k for the price of bitcoin, that's already profit. But when it has reached $60k, I've felt a bit sorry to myself.
But nevertheless, that's already profit that I've taken and there's no need to regret if I have to rethink of it.

[ethereumhunter]

I'm sure many of us would regret it if we missed the opportunity to sell at the peak and saw the price slowly drop downwards. If that happens to you, maybe you can only be patient to wait for the price to rise to another price peak. There's nothing we can do but just keep holding the coin until it's time to go up again.

If you see an opportunity to sell at the peak price, you better sell it immediately because after that, a correction can come and you will have a chance to buy again but this time, the amount you bought will be more than before.

[gurunanakji777]

I believe most of the traders miss such opportunities because it's quite hard to predict when the market will reverse. Yes, we should not regret if we miss the chance because by experience we all know the market will give us many chances. Satisfaction is the most important thing if one is satisfied with his profits that is what is important for a trader or investor.

Did you sold cifi and slp coins in profits? If not, it would be better if you had hold these coins as they would have recovered. That;s one of the biggest mistakes we do is that we sell our coins in a loss. If a coin is dumped after reaching all time high, it does not mean it will go to zero. After the correction, it may continue making new highs.
