Bought a coin and achieved +40% profit? Now is the time to sell and take profits; don't wait for a bigger rise and the peak.

The real benefit lies in compound gains. When you accumulate profits and reinvest them, the multipliers come to you while you're still at the beginning. This is the secret.

Regarding trading goals, true speculation ranges between +5% and +25% per trade. Anything more than that? That is actually medium-term investing, not short-term speculation.

From experience, my latest trading moves have doubled and a half the principal. Praise be to God for that. But even with these positive results, the most important lesson remains: know when to exit, set your goals clearly, and don't be greedy beyond reason.

40% profit and then run? Oh my, this guy is right. Compound interest is the way to go, slowly rolling the small money into a snowball... sounds right, but I’m still greedy. The key is knowing when to flash, I really haven’t done enough in this regard. 5-25% waves one after another, it sounds boring but stable. I, as a gambler, hate this approach the most. But they’ve already multiplied 2.5 times, and I’m still losing... that’s a bit heartbreaking. Greed is easy to talk about, but actually doing it is deadly.

40% and you're out? I thought it was going for 1000% haha... But on the other hand, it does make sense. The greedy ones all died; taking profits when it's good is really... forget it, I'll wait a bit longer. Why is it so hard for me to stay within the +5 to +25 range? I always go all-in or paper hands. This guy is right, but executing it is deadly. Every time I try to go for a big move, I end up wiping out. Compound interest is the way to go, but unfortunately, I can't seem to play it smart.

According to the database, another suggestion of "take profit after 40% gains" has appeared... How many days have passed since the last similar advice? I need to check my records. The dream of compound interest is indeed enticing, but those who can consistently sell at 5-25% targets should be recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records.
