The hardest part of trading is not making money, but holding on to it. Every day, there are people entering the market to follow the trend, and others quietly exiting. I can understand that feeling. My goal is very clear: to double my gains and then double again, reaching 400% and then doubling to 800%. However, often I miss the best exit opportunities because of sunk costs. Therefore, I never rush to place orders; a clear mindset, avoiding greed and impatience, is my bottom line. I place extra importance on risk control because my account contains not only my hard-earned money but also the funds of friends who trust me. Currently, the real economy is generally sluggish, and I dare not take risks chasing huge profits. Earning steadily is enough. How much can I earn specifically? I can't guarantee. But what I can promise is that on this day next year, I will still be in the market, with bullets in hand, continuing the fight. This is my promise to myself and my supporters.

Honestly, being able to hold is truly a skill; most people lose at the moment of greed.

honestly the sunk cost fallacy bit hits different when you're actually managing other people's capital... that's the real test ngl. most retail traders talk about discipline but crack the second they're up 3x lmao. the network effects of trust are underrated in this space tbh

I've heard this kind of rhetoric too many times. The key question is, can you really hold on? Over the years, I've seen too many people while raising three kids. When it hits 400%, their hands start to shake, and when it reaches 800%, they've probably already sold out. The point about opportunity cost is well said, but most people can't tell whether it's due to psychological accounting or truly reaching a technical top. But to be fair, if friends have funds invested, they should indeed be cautious, and I agree with that. There are still bullets left for next year, provided they haven't been trapped this year, right?

To be honest, I've heard quite a few arguments like "there are still bullets to keep fighting"... How many will actually make it to next year?
