📉 Everyone knows how to buy the dip, but few know when to sell the peak📈
The real profit in the cryptocurrency market does not come from timing the entry only, but from knowing when to exit.
Most traders lose their profits because they do not have a clear exit plan.

🔁 The market moves in psychological cycles
😱 Fear creates bottoms
😈 Greed creates peaks
When you see everyone celebrating and saying "this time is different", think about selling, not buying.
Euphoria is not the beginning of a rise, but a signal of the end.

🧠 Set an exit plan before entering
✍️ For each trade, write three exit points:
🚨 Emergency stop: if the hypothesis changes or the market collapses
🎯 Main target: to secure part of the profits
🌕 Moon target: for the remaining part if momentum continues
Pre-writing removes hesitation and gives you clarity in execution.

📊 Trade size management is key to survival
Don't enter with a large size that forces you to wait 10x for a reasonable profit.
If a profit of 50–100% isn't enough, you're risking too much.
Capital protection is more important than chasing profits.
---
📈 Gradual selling is better than trying to sell the peak
Reduce a portion of the trade at +100%
Reduce more at +200–300%
Leave the rest as a free bag
If it goes up, great. If it collapses, no problem.
I locked in my profits earlier.
---
⏳ Momentum does not last
If prices stop making new highs for several days, this is not a relief but a warning.
Parabolic moves end suddenly.
Better to exit early than to regret later.
---
📉 Use trailing stops to protect profits
I rely on ATR or percentage for dynamic exits.
Example: If the price closes more than 2xATR below the peak, exit.
With this, I ride trends without worry, and exit when the move actually ends.
---
📢 Collective sentiment is a strong indicator of a peak
If platforms are filled with new "experts", funding rates become crazy, and your cousin asks about currencies, know that euphoria has peaked.
I don't sell first, but I also don't sell last.
This is the perfect timing.
---
🚩 The first lower peak is an exit signal
In an uptrend, higher peaks are normal.
If the price fails to make a new high, that's my exit signal.
Waiting for confirmation often means losing half the profits.
---
💥 I sell on strength, not on weakness
If trading volume doubles and the price barely moves, that's a distribution sign from major investors.
Better to sell in high liquidity than to panic after the crowds disappear.
---
🌀 Avoid selling during BTC or ETH chaos
When major currencies move ±10% in an hour, altcoins become unpredictable.
Spreads widen, fills become bad, and panic creates noise.
I'd rather miss 10% in calm than lose 50% in panic.
---
📌 The final rule: profits without an exit plan = illusions
In previous cycles, I learned the hard way that greed takes everything back.
In this cycle, I will reduce my positions, follow my rules, and lock in profits.
The goal is not to sell the highest point, but to preserve the gains.
