Copy my entry moves, but never copy my exit timing.

Lost money selling Lumen too early—if I'd held just a bit longer, I'd be sitting on a 1.5K gain right now. The regret? Real. And that's with just 3x leverage too.

This is exactly why position management matters. Sometimes the hardest part isn't knowing when to buy. It's knowing when NOT to sell. A reminder that a solid CA and proper risk alerts could've changed everything today.

Selling too early is really frustrating; I've been wanting to say this for a while... exit timing is a hundred times harder than entry.

Based on on-chain data, I have long seen through this. The mistake in this exit rhythm must conceal a deeper abnormality in trading patterns. Through multi-address tracking analysis, it is evident that this guy's stop-loss settings have systemic vulnerabilities.

If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have sold in panic. Losing 1.5k like this really hurts.

exit timing is literally the darkest art ngl... watched countless positions evaporate bc ppl got emotional on the 5m chart. that 1.5k gain coulda been mempool alpha if you'd just set proper alerts instead of doom scrolling. classic toxic flow behavior tbh

Selling early is like this; regretting it won't help... Set a take-profit order next time for automatic execution.

Selling early is really frustrating; I totally understand what's going on with this Lumen situation.
