2. Have a strategy. Every month, on a particular day you have chosen, take 50% of your profits in fiat. No ifs, no buts, no waiting for the market to get better or for the price to rise because you "know it will rise 100%". And when it comes to the other half, invest 50% of it in assets you believe in for the long-term (Bitcoin, ETH, Neo, etc.) and leave the other 50% for speculation (alts, shorting).[/color][/b]
This is a good strategy OP. A plan like this would make you not be stress when there is a bear market because you are able to cash out and you are assured that you can still put food in the table and if one follows this religiously then he would not become greedy especially if he makes trading his source of income since he knows what his target will be. We know for a fact that we are still in a fiat-dominated world so taking profits from time to time would be the ideal way of trading.
And finally, don't trade under the influence of your emotions:
FOMO
FEAR OF LOSING
GREED
These emotions are the reason why someone would lose a trade because he cannot control his emotions and after entering a position and losing, he would regret that he took that trade but then I think all of us have to go through to this so that we will know not to do it again in the future but instead learn from it because in trading, experience is still the best teacher to hone your skills and be profitable in the future.
