I have always hated selling coins when they’re down. It’s not even about the money, it’s about the feeling that i’m giving up at the worst possible moment. I’ve held some positions through every kind of market condition, from huge runs to brutal crashes, because I believed in what they stood for. They felt real, built on something solid, and that made it hard to let go even when the market clearly didn’t care.
Still, it’s hard not to question myself when other trades go wrong. My best trade ever was one I entered on a random hunch and it ended up being the biggest win I’ve ever had. Then came another one that turned into a disaster, just constant bleeding, new lows every week, and no sign of recovery. I told myself I don’t sell cheap, but sometimes holding feels like pretending something still has life when it’s clearly gone.
Lately I’ve been trying to see selling differently. Maybe it’s not about quitting or being weak, maybe it’s just part of staying sane in a market that never really stops moving. Some trades work out, others don’t, and the real challenge for me is knowing which ones still deserve my patience. I still hate selling cheap, even atm i saw aster trending on cmc i checked on bitget and saw it added to my portfolio. But the price still looks cheap in my eyes but I’m starting to think that holding for pride costs more than taking the loss ever will.
