STOP FALLING IN LOVE WITH YOUR BAGS 💔📉 TAKE THE DAMN PROFITS!
Real talk: I made one of the dumbest mistakes in my trading journey — I got emotionally attached to my coins and didn’t sell when I should’ve. I watched massive gains vanish because I was waiting for that mythical 10x. Don’t do what I did.
Here’s what happened:
• $SOL ran from $106 → $270, then crashed right back to $106 🤡
• $DOGE doubled from $0.18 → $0.40, then rugged back to $0.18
• $PEPE pumped to $0.000016, then sliced in half like a sushi roll
Lesson? A pump isn’t permanent. TAKE PROFITS WHILE YOU HAVE THEM.
Let’s turn paper gains into real gains.

🔑 6 Profit-Taking Rules That Actually Work
1. Know When You’re Out
Pre-set your exit points: +25%, +50%, +100%.
Use limit orders. Set ’em and forget ’em.
2. Sell in Pieces, Not All at Once
Take profits in chunks: maybe 30% at +25%, 30% at +50%, 40% at +100%.
This way, you secure wins and stay in the game.
3. Protect the Bag with Trailing Stops
Trailing stop-loss = automatic safety net.
No need to babysit charts 24/7.
4. Rebuy Like a Pro (Not a FOMO Ape)
Took profits? Nice.
Now wait for 10–20% dips to re-enter with that dry powder.
5. Don’t YOLO the Portfolio
No single coin should be more than 10% of your stack.
Diversify across categories: blue chips, memecoins, L2s, real utility plays.
6. Review Monthly. Yes, Every Month.
Skim some profits off the top, rebalance, and shift into stablecoins when alts look overcooked.
Bull runs end. Bags don’t always bounce back.
