The Art of Holding Profits
It’s not just about buying and holding on forever; that’s not how to effectively "hold profits". Holding profits effectively means you possess assets of true value and have a reasonable exit strategy. Here are a few important principles:
🔸 1. Analyze carefully before deciding to hold long-term
Do you know why you entered the trade?
Is the project truly good? Is there strong growth momentum?
Are the capitalization, cash flow, and news supportive?
If the answer is “yes”, then don’t rush to exit when you’ve just made a little profit.
🔸 2. Take partial profits – don’t be greedy, and don’t rush
Don’t hold on forever hoping for an absolute peak. Take partial profits: 30% at the first target level, 30% at the next wave peak, and the remainder to run long if the trend is still strong.
This way helps you preserve profits while maintaining a position to benefit if the market surges.
🔸 3. Move Stoploss according to the trend – gradually lock in profits
When a coin has surged significantly, move the stop-loss point up to the profit zone (trailing stop). Even if the price reverses, you still exit with a profit.
Big profits are not for the impatient.
One of the secrets of successful investors in crypto is: patiently sitting still while profits are rising, and not breaking a good position just because of temporary emotions.
Holding profits is an art, and artists are always calm.
If you’ve chosen the right asset and the right trend – then don’t let impatience ruin a big win.
Maintain discipline, take profits wisely, and let the market do the rest.
