Holding period isn't easy for everyone. Some people have hard time waiting for it, and because of that we need to realize that things cold be very different. If we could end up with a much higher price in the future, and we fail to wait, then we will regret it.
So, the best case would be just assuming how this could change and how we could make more money from this. If we want to reach to a higher level while making a profit, then we need to be able to wait.
Panic, fear, anxiety, worry, none of that will matter and we will not make money from them.
Those are emotions that will cause you to lose money when you could profit. Which is why you should ignore those feelings, and focus on just holding no matter how bad things look.
Some people, even if they do manage to hold, choose to sell immediately upon seeing a small profit and realize their profit.
I can't blame them for taking the profit, but it actually means they don't believe Bitcoin will achieve much more or that it will become more valuable in the future, and they sell immediately out of this concern.
So, worrying makes you lose more, that's true.
I feel the same way because selling too quickly after just a small profit often shows that the person doesn’t really have faith in the longterm value of Bitcoin. I can not entirely blame them, because everyone has different levels of patience and different financial situations, but at the same time it is clear that worrying too much makes people miss out on bigger moves.. Bitcoin has always been about holding through the noise, because short term moves can be misleading…
If someone truly believes in what Bitcoin is and where it is going, then small gains or little dips should not be a reason to panic… Bitcoin has shown that the people who benefit the most are usually those who can hold with conviction and patience, not the ones rushing to sell at the first sign of profit...
