Do You Have Your Own Take-Profit Strategy or System?
Take profit too early? Regret.
Take profit too late? Regret.
Take profit at the exact right time, at the exact right number? No regret… but also, almost impossible.
Sell early, and you’re the guy who left the party just before the fireworks.
Sell late, and you’re stuck sweeping up empty bottles while everyone else is gone.
Sell perfectly? That’s once in a blue moon.
That’s trading. You think you’re being clever locking in gains early… then the stock rockets 20% the next morning. You hold a little longer, trying to squeeze out just a bit more… and suddenly you’re watching your “profits” turn into “what the hell just happened.”
The truth? Nailing the perfect exit is basically a myth. Nobody consistently sells at the top. If you do, congratulations, you should probably buy a lottery ticket too.
So in the end, the real skill isn’t selling at the perfect moment. It’s learning to live with being slightly wrong every single time.
