“I should’ve sold earlier.”
“I thought it would go higher.”
“Now I’m back to zero.”
These are the voices of traders who lived through a bull market… and learned the hard way.
If you're new to crypto or waiting for the next run, here’s the truth nobody tells you about bull markets — until it's too late.
💸 1. Everyone Feels Like a Genius in a Bull Market
📈 You buy anything, and it goes up.
🚀 Your portfolio triples. You think: “I was born for this.”
But here’s the trap:
Bull markets reward risk-taking — until they don’t.
You get overconfident. You don’t sell.
Then the music stops.
✅ Survival tip:
Profits aren’t real until you take them.
🧠 2. You Won’t Feel Greedy — You’ll Feel “Smart”
You don’t think you’re being greedy.
You think, “I did my research.”
“ETH will go to $10,000.”
“This is just the beginning.”
Until one red candle wipes out 40% — and you freeze.
✅ Survival tip:
Create exit points BEFORE your coins pump.
Not after.
💬 3. Nobody Rings a Bell at the Top
There won’t be a sign.
No influencer will say: “That’s it, sell now.”
In fact, they’ll be more bullish than ever.
You’ll see:
“New ATH incoming!”
“This is just wave 3!”
“You’ll regret selling!”
But by the time the top is in, it’s already too late.
✅ Survival tip:
When your bags hit 3x–5x, take partial profits — no matter the hype.
🧘 4. You’ll Regret What You Didn't Do — Not What You Did
You’ll never regret selling too early if you made gains.
But you’ll regret holding a 10x token that becomes a rugpull.
It’s better to leave some gains on the table
than to ride the full rollercoaster back down to break-even.
✅ Survival tip:
Set your targets. Stick to them.
Even a 50% gain is a win.
💣 5. The Dip You’re Waiting to Buy… May Never Come
Everyone says: “I’ll buy the dip.”
But when it dips, fear takes over.
You hesitate. It drops more. You freeze.
Then it pumps — and you’re back to FOMO.
✅ Survival tip:
Use DCA (dollar-cost averaging).
Have buy levels ready before the panic hits.
📊 Bull Market Survival Checklist:
✅ Take profits in layers (20%–30% at a time)
✅ Don’t wait for the “perfect top”
✅ Don’t chase coins after a 300% pump
✅ Rotate gains into BTC, ETH, or stablecoins
✅ Remember: The bull won’t last forever
🔔 Final Word
Bull markets are exciting. Profitable. Euphoric.
But they’re also dangerous — if you don’t have a plan.
Don’t aim to time the top.
Aim to exit with profits, peace, and purpose.
