💸 Take Profits, Not Screenshots
There’s a well-known trading tale from a pro called The Cheer Hedge. After years on trading floors, he noticed a strange pattern: every time someone celebrated a winning trade — shouting or fist-pumping — the market would often immediately reverse. 📉
🔁 He began trading against those emotional highs — and it worked. The louder the celebration, the more likely the top (or bottom) was already in.
💡 In trading, emotional extremes often signal the end of a move, not the beginning. That moment of overconfidence — when someone posts a 500% gain or a profit screenshot — is usually when the risk is highest.
This isn’t luck or magic. It’s crowd psychology. When everyone feels euphoric, the smart move is to stay calm, not get louder.
🧠 Next time you feel the urge to brag, consider booking profit instead. Discipline > Emotion.
✅ Smart traders scale out, not show off.
