That feeling when the chart keeps climbing but you held on too long. Price rockets, conviction stays strong, profits sit right there—and then boom, correction wipes half of it out. Every trader's got that one trade where timing the exit matters more than nailing the entry. The lesson hits different when it's your own capital dancing between conviction and regret. Profitable trades turned into near-breakevens because you slept on taking profits. Sometimes the hardest part isn't making money in crypto—it's knowing when to actually pocket the gains.
