panic sell in trading this always happen not just in crypto but on every investment instrument that I know including stock and even a mutual fund, I know that one people and the other had different risk but if you hold a good coin like bitcoin or blue chip stock like apple you can wait for some moment or do DCA and in the long run is still gonna profitable
In crypto trading, panic sell often occurs when there is a big correction in the crypto market in general, even though before someone enters into trading or shares, they already know that there is a high risk. The best assets in crypto are holding on to Bitcoin and Ethereum. That's my opinion. The important thing is not to be too ambitious about making big profits, prioritize entering at the right time, if there is a correction, don't panic sell. Any investment in the long term will be profitable.
You are right in trading panic selling often occurs, especially for someone who is just starting to trade and they do not understand well how to make a profit from crypto, even though they understand the risks faced when trading, of course they will still feel panic when they see the price of the assets they buy decrease.
I agree with the choice you made to choose the asset to trade and continue to trade without being greedy even though the small profits we get can be enjoyed compared to expecting big profits that we may not be able to get and choosing to maintain in the long term would certainly be better.
