Is there an experienced trader to give some tips? I feel like my strategy can't keep up with the market rhythm at all.

My previous approach was very simple and crude: hold coins until zero or skyrocket, anyway, just ride the wave until it takes off. Later, I learned to be smarter and set a doubling target to take out the principal, at least ensuring the safety of the original investment. But now I see everyone in the group discussing breaking even at 50%—selling half of the position once it gains 50%, leaving only the pure profit.

Honestly, I really can't learn this kind of operation... The pace is getting faster and faster, the take-profit lines are set lower and lower. Who is truly right? 🥹 I feel like a newbie always a half beat behind.

Stop messing around. The more you adjust your strategy, the more you lose. Just stick to your own.

It's just changing the take-profit line, why are you so tangled up? You can make money and you're still pondering. I think the idea of a 50% recovery is purely a psychological game; it should have been seen through long ago. To put it simply, you're not slow; you just haven't figured out what you want. Nowadays, people all want quick gains, fine, keep grinding. As for take-profit, what's suitable for you is correct; don't be swayed by the group's momentum. Follow your own pace, really, as long as your mindset isn't blown, you've already won. Actually, doubling your investment and achieving 50% are no essential difference; both are just bets. I don't know who is right either, but as long as you get off the ride, don't regret it—that's the core.

nah man this is just the copium cycle talking. everyone thinks they cracked the code until liquidity cascade hits and suddenly that 50% exit looks genius in hindsight... or completely rekt in the next one. the real alpha? knowing when you're bagholding vs actually accumulating. honestly the speed isn't the problem—your risk management is just catching up to reality

Based on historical data, this is the market cycle filtering players. The 50% return line is actually a T-shaped thinking, suitable for high-frequency traders, but with a risk warning—once you miss the rebound, you could suffer heavy losses. Your logic for doubling and exiting isn't a problem; the key is technical support. Don't get confused by the fast in and out rhythm in the group, as that's likely survivor bias. Those who truly make money are often not the ones with the fastest pace.

Damn, a 50% return is just breakeven? I need to think about this logic the other way around...

Bro, you asked the wrong question. Did people who withdrew 50% really make money? I think most of them just gained a psychological comfort.

Bro, I think you're overthinking it. There's no such thing as a correct answer.

lmao the classic "opportunity cost anxiety spiral" — here's the thing tho, 50% pullback strategy is just capital utilization optimization dressed up fancy. you're not behind, you're just noticing basis points matter now. the real move? don't chase *their* rhythm, backtest yours and own it fr
