Take Profits! Its important!

[adpinbr]

Exactly. This is the most problem of some traders and people intending to make profits from their little coin and I can gladly tell you that this has happened to more than 50% of traders. Yes it has happened to me last year and I became so upset after making a profit of $300 and I was thinking the market is still pumping And I couldn’t take out my profits I lost about $150 out of what I have made so it was so sad. It is always good for you to take out Profit  as soon as you see something, this is actually greed I was so greedy. If not, I would have possibly get something.

When we are at Extreme Greed you need to be taking some profit off the table. Most people in crypto fail to keep the money they've made. They either sell too late or they selfishly watch all profits fall back to zero.

You are right and I have seen that happening as well, with myself and with others too. I always tell people that I know are holding that they should take profit if they know they have enough to sell a portion of it and keep the rest. What happens is that they don't feel satisfied with the profits and expect the price to go higher so that they can get more profit from their assets, but when that doesn't happen and the market starts going down, they realize that they should have done it but they still don't sell because they feel that it might be a small correction and the market will go up again for sure .

This is the reason why many people say that it is not easy to hold because you will sometimes be in situations where you will need to make some decisions that are hard to make.

I've seen this happening each cycle.

We all need to understand that 1st priority in crypto is surviving. Profits are in 2nd place. Yes that sounds counterintuitive, but it's really simple. The real skill is not in making money. The real skill is in keeping it.

I hope you found this useful. Keep up the flow, and may the force be with you.

I have seem many of my friends, and even myself to think that because they missed ath, and while they are still up 1000+%, they count that as a loss and refuse to sell because it could go higher. Not only selling the absolute top is statistically nearly impossible, we still beat ourself not doing that. We beat ourself not doing optimal decisions no matter what. I still keep thinking some ATHs that i have missed as a loss, even when i sold, roi of them were insane and nothing you could ever do with stocks.

Talking profits is also hard because everyone around you will say you are crazy to do so. They will say this is nothing and it will be on top 10 marketcap easily or something. Obviously everything can moon, but when nothing is enough and exit targets are as delusional as "think this like investing to bitcoin at the start". We are most likely losing.

But i am glad i took profits, even now, when i sold lots of bitcoin in 2015. Because i used it for making my life, and my kids life better.
If i hadn't do that and i kept my bitcoins and eth, i would be rich for sure, but if i keep hitting myself for that, and all i see is mistakes in my life, i end up hating myself. But if i see them as lessons that i paid that much bitcoin worth, i just make sure that those lessons were worth it. Because i wouldn't like to pay for something that i already know.

And it's not like i didn't do well. Just in hindsight i just would have done better if i had known the future.

My first experience was when I bought btc, I didn’t realize I had to take profit I literally allowed the market take all it gave to me. Now with better experience and knowledge, I either take 50% of profit or all profit leaving the capital. $COQ and $WEN my Favourites Memecoins at the moment has give me more than 100% profits, every night I open my bitget app and look for buy or sell opportunities and also re-entry positions…

That's the way to go.. in this space, except you've taken profits, you've not made anything. Same knowledge I apply in trading futures on the platform you mentioned. I DCA in and I DCA out. But I make sure to always leave a moonbag. NFA..

You are actually right on the aspect of surviving first, most traders fail to understand that risk management is one important thing we as traders have to masters first, before venturing into trading, because if you capital is in tact, you can still try again, since opportunities comes every day, and every minute, so I believe that managing your risk properly helps you stay in the market.

Secondly, as a trader, it's very important that before venturing into it, you must prepare for your entry point and exit point, wether it's going your way or not, where you will take your profit if it going your way, and where you will cut your loss if it's going against you, with that, I believe that if you are discipline enough to keep to your rules, you will be more successful in trading than you thought.

We don't sell when we have profit but when we lose our capital we expect to sell our coins when our capital comes back. When in profit we should sell and wait for next trade. Whenever we expect extra profit we lose our money instead of profit. Excessive greed never brings desired results for an investor or a trader. Setting a specific target first is very important in business. If we have planned in advance what amount of capital and what amount of profit we will sell, then if we get that amount of profit, we can sell our coins at that time without being extra greedy. It is better to be satisfied with a relatively small amount of profit than to lose all the profit by being overly greedy. Those who are content with small profits are seen to make good profits overall.

You're right there; that's where they often have problems with how to take a profit or exit when they see that they already have a profit in this matter. What is the problem? Of course, the main reason for that is the presence of "greed.".

This greed is like a back-and-forth disease that only transfers to others when it is gone from another person. That's why we don't let it be that we have it, or if we have a target plan for when it will be sold, it should really be once it's even sold without thinking about it as if we're thinking twice.

In trading, regardless of the amount of profits, as long as you are seeing profits, the best action would be to sell your coins. You could sell even just a small portion of your whole storage, the important thing is you take time to sell and make decent amount of profits. While others continue to hold to satisfy their greed, but hodling will never make you profitable, but selling is.

Know when to trade and make profits and know when to hold continuously your coins. If you have specific plans on when to sell and when to hold, you will definitely make a positive outcome from your investment. Long term planning and good preparation prior to investing will really help you to achieve your goal in the end.

Well, you are right but it's not always going to be like if you invested $100 as capital and take $100 straight in one or few months will not be possible at all so how they need to take out the profits is from small range let's break into 5 times so taking 20 is quite possible and realistic too and if you manage to do that 5 times then now you recovered your capital value and everything that left is profit and even one more cash out is made out of complete profit.

One of the causes of losses on trading platforms is excessive profit. Those who are overly greedy on the trading platform cannot earn profits from their trading and thus lose their profits quickly. Especially those who trade on futures trading platform, you need to avoid over greed because if you don't avoid over greed on future trading platform, you will lose yourself from success at any moment. I have found from my own experience that whenever I went to gain more I lost my excess gain. Currently I am connected to the trading platform but I am not very greedy I now sell with small profit and wait for the market to dump if it is dumping and from there I trade again. When it is again a little more profitable then sell again this is how I currently trade I am taking profit.

Greed is the key to lose, not a winning solution. If you ignore small profits, you will definitely miss the bigger profits next in line. This is why always appreciate small profits and always take time to sell irrespective of its amount. It’s better to take small profits than to never profit at all. While trading outcome can be uncertain, but if you take time to sell every potential profits you’ve seen, then losing will be lessen and reduced. Always take profits, because that is always our original goal from the very start.

[johnsaributua]

I was once in that position because I thought the coin I bought was very cheap and the potential to go up so much, but the zone dragged me down in price, my mistake was that I didn't buy again when the price was deep/base between the confirmations, good projects will be in demand no matter how low. because the news is also so influential as a community driver and crowds the queue. but I'm not too sorry because some of these assets I bought bitcoin and stable coins.

You view yourself as a scalper so it is possible to buy assets and sell as quickly as possible when the target hit you reach exceeds the daily limit, so that you get multiples faster and spend it back into other coins is a good solution, but don't you want to sell coins partially? Because it could be a good price, although not so bright but there are 2 possibilities when you can buy at a low price and sell the remaining assets when the pump is suddenly.

I don't want the assets I bought to plunge cheaply but some people are waiting for that moment, so I think in two conditions

You would definitely be losing up big time if you wont really be taking up profits and this is something that you should always bare it on mind on the time that you are dealing up with this
space on which you would really be needing up for you to secure profits as much as you could. We do know that this market is really that truly upredictable and there's no way
that we could really be able to know on where it would be heading and on the time that you do see greens then secure it out as much as you could.
Dont make yourself that being too greedy when it comes to money because if you wont really be that mindful much then you would really be that on subject into
that missed opportunity which would really be giving out that huge regret into you.

It did happen to me countless number of times. The last one that I remember that caused me significant loss was when I was winning $45 already but I set TP at $50. The market later went down and I lost money a lot. As a trader, it is good not to be greedy.

This topic reminds me when I joined this space exploring spot trading to take little profit. Greed can be crazy you know. I remember trying to take advantage of of the early listing of DOT on Bitget and instead of taking profit with the little profit realized I decided to wait for the unrealistic short term profit. The good new was it was on spot and I just had to sell a little amount at loss and hodl the rest.

Whenever a trader covets extra money, he must face losses. In the crypto world, I have seen many individuals who get overly greedy lead to doom. Start trading with a small target, then sell when the target is met and buy when the price moves within your target. But there are people who take a trade with $500 and want to sell it for $1000. These people return their assets to zero. Because their greed is too much.

[God bless u]

I think the strategy of keeping the money can't be taught to someone.Greed is a built in fault in human beings and it only washes away from someone's heart once he or she is deceived by the negatives of being greedy. These are mostly the problem of newbies mostly.

What happens here is actually that on someones saying they buy a certain coin and then they get some profit from it but because of inexperienced knowledge they get greedy and even after getting good profit they still want more. Now they either wait for it to pump more or they invest in some other meme coin now every meme coin can't give you profits so in this cycle they lose their profits.

Our trading purpose is to make profit but sometimes we think that the profit will be more double than the profit which is enough condition we don't sell our coin at that time but wait more. But if you sell at that time and wait for the market to come down again, then there is a possibility of making two profits at the same time. I have noticed in the case of those who trade that they can't make a profit by waiting for a long time. If short trading can be done to get profit in multiple trades then that trading is definitely good for traders.

That's why being able to follow the goal you already set should be important. If you are a knowledge trader and analytic, then you should be able to measure or plat the money you can only get, the approximate amount of money you can earn, and the limit of your analysis. Even though you want a higher profit, you should set the previous TP into the SL, meaning that, for example, if your first TP is equivalent to $100 profit and you see that your trade could get more profit, you should adjust the SL into the $100 position in order to earn even if you hit the SL. That is the most logical and practical way to trade. You should be wiser and think of securing a profit if you want more. We all sometimes can't help ourselves to stop our greed from taking over, so if you want to be more greedy, you should always have security in your profit.

It is time for them to make a profit they will want to wait a little to see if the price might increase and even if the coin is little as far as your profit is there I don't think is a bad idea because you can still invest as little as it may be.  but the problem I have is that as you are making a profit you can be taking profit one after the other. and leave your capital you can also reinvest depending on the decision that the trader wants to make.  there is one thing in Bitcoin never assume what will happen in the market if you notice you are making a profit take it. if not you want to hold for a very long time. if you hold for a long time then you have to hold. and I know how it feels when you lose profit the best thing you can do is to know what to do at a particular period in the market if not you will still lose profit.
