Everyone thinks buying the dip on $SOL is an easy way to make quick gains, but actually, jumping into a trade without a clear safety net is how most accounts get wiped out.
It is incredibly frustrating to watch a position turn red immediately after you enter, leaving you trapped because you did not plan your exit. This usually happens when FOMO dictates our entries instead of calculated risk.
First, you need to treat your entry zone like a shopping budget. If you are looking to long $SOL between 75.00 and 78.50, you must set a strict stop loss at 71.00. Think of the stop loss as a circuit breaker in your house that shuts off the power before the whole system burns down.
Second, do not try to hit a home run on your very first swing. Instead of holding for a massive pump, scale out of your position at key milestones like 85.00, 92.00, and finally 100.00. Taking partial profits along the way, just like you would when trading $BTC, ensures you actually lock in gains instead of watching them evaporate.
How do you manage your risk when the market gets this volatile?
