Bobbi Hill 511

I’ve been trading crypto for six years, but the experience that shaped me the most happened back in 2019. That year didn’t just test me it rebuilt me. It taught me the kind of lessons only real money, real risk, and real regret can teach.

I still remember buying $SOL when it was trading quietly around $30-$70. It was just another experiment back then, nothing special. But three months later, Solana did the unthinkable it exploded toward $60, and my account was flashing nearly 70× in floating profit.

Every morning I woke up checking how many zeros had magically appeared in my balance. I even started imagining myself pulling up in a Porsche. Life felt unreal… surreal even.

But I didn’t sell.
Not at $160.
Not at $200.
Not at $240.

I kept waiting for “one more leg up.”

And then the market turned.
$SOL retraced violently, dropping back near the $140 range… and just like that, more than 85% of my unrealized gains evaporated.

That Porsche dream?
It became a second-hand BYD in my head.

But that pain taught me something no bull run ever could:

Anyone can buy.
Masters are the ones who know how to sell.

Ever since that moment, I changed the way I trade not to chase perfection, but to protect myself from myself.
When a coin doubles, I take out 30% of my principal.
When it triples, I remove another 30%.
The remaining part? I let it run with a moving take-profit, usually selling automatically if price retraces 15% from the peak. No emotion. No hesitation. No stories we tell ourselves.

This approach lets me capture the main trend without trying to catch the tip of the candle.

Now about stop-losses…
I treat them like the seatbelt of trading.

I never allow a single loss to exceed 5% of my principal.
If I invest $10,000, I’m out the moment my floating loss touches $500.
After entering a trade, I immediately place a conditional stop buckle the seatbelt before the engine starts.

Opportunities always come back.
Lost capital does not.

And here’s something that took me years to understand:

Lowering your profit target can actually increase your profits.
Trying to sell at the absolute top makes you miss more wins than any correction ever will.
Catching the middle the “body of the fish” is what gave me stable, quiet, consistent returns this year.

To my Square family, this comes straight from the heart:

In these markets, I’ve seen people become legends overnight…
But I’ve seen far more people lose everything because they refused to take profit or refused to take a loss.

The survivors the ones who stay long enough to win are the ones who execute discipline like robots, even when emotions scream otherwise.

I once hit a stop-loss and the coin doubled shortly after.
People laughed at me.
But a few months later… that same coin went to zero.

No regrets.
Just clarity.

In crypto, staying alive is more important than any temporary moonshot.

I used to walk blindly in the dark.
Today, I carry a light shaped by my own mistakes.
And I’m offering that light to you so you don’t have to fall into the same holes I once did.

Stay disciplined.
Stay sharp.
Stay alive.

Your future self will thank you.
