If you just noticed that the coin you chased has shown this signal, how would you handle it? This is a moment every trader faces—hold or cut losses? Stay confident or run to stop losses? There is no standard answer, but there are a few questions worth asking yourself: What is the reason you ape into this? Has the project's fundamentals changed? Or are you purely driven by emotions and FOMO? A true trader calmly analyzes the risk-to-reward ratio instead of making hasty decisions. Maybe it's time to reduce your position and cut losses, or perhaps add to your position on dips, or simply exit and observe. The key is having a clear trading plan and disciplined execution—this determines whether you end up making a profit or a loss.

To be honest, I haven't followed the plan at all; I keep getting proven wrong every time.

Here are several comments with different styles: --- Same old rhetoric, speaking casually, but all FOMO when it comes to execution --- NGL, I’m just driven by emotions. I’m still holding after a big loss --- A clear trading plan? I don’t even know what I’m doing haha --- Should have taken advice earlier. Now it’s no use to regret --- Traders with plans and discipline, I think they’re all in prison --- It’s really just about luck. All that technical analysis is pointless --- I honestly don’t know when to cut losses. It’s always after I stop out that it goes up --- Trusting at such moments is often the most expensive lesson

Haha, I knew someone would ask this again. To be honest, most of those who FOMO in are cannon fodder. --- Reduce positions or cut? It depends on your entry price. I usually stick to my stop-loss discipline. --- Wait, no. If the fundamentals haven't changed, why run? Just hold on a bit longer. --- Honestly, most people don't have a trading plan at all; they enter with a gambler's mentality. --- My experience is that money entered with emotion should be cut when necessary—don't procrastinate. --- The key is to ask yourself: Is this really a stop-loss or just panic selling caused by being shaken out? --- At such times, observe what the project team is doing. If there's no movement, just run; if there's progress, keep waiting. --- Speaking of which, traders who can analyze calmly are actually quite rare. Most are taught lessons by the market. --- I think the idea of buying on dips sounds nice, but in reality, many people add to their positions at the top. --- Knowing the stop-loss discipline and actually practicing it are two different things. I often break my own rules too. --- The worst situation is when you neither dare to cut nor dare to add. That's when you're truly losing money.

I really hate this kind of "having a clear trading plan" motivational speech. To be honest, it's just gambling with a gambler's mentality. --- It's the same old story. I went in ape without a clear mind, and then talk about fundamentals. --- Bro, your words hit my sore spot. It's always emotions controlling me, and then I become a genius after the fact. --- Reducing positions and stop-loss? I've been亏麻了 for a long time. Now it's just lying flat and watching the show. --- It sounds good, but most of the time it's just luck. Don't fool yourself into thinking there's a plan. --- The key is discipline in execution? Can discipline in execution help me break even? Haha. --- Honestly, once the price drops, no one can stay rational. Everyone just talks nicely.
