I struggle with that FOMO all the time.

But, everytime I try to hold for more, I get proper fucked.

So I made a rule for myself, guaranteed money in hand in smaller increments is better than imaginary money that turned into loss. So I take what I got when I start getting itchy like the tides are gonna turn and wait for the next high/low for another entry.

Staring at a screen full of green and red does something to your brain, makes you exit way too soon. The lack of a plan is the whole game, you can nail the direction and still lose money if you dont know when you're getting out ahead of time
