$HYPE just climbed 15% from my entry. Set stop-loss orders now since this is a swing position—price could easily retrace to entry or even hit my DCA zone.
Swing trading requires discipline. When you're up decent gains, protecting capital matters more than chasing pumps. I've learned this the hard way: secure profits, let stops do their job, and stay ready to re-enter if momentum shifts.
Risk management isn't sexy, but it keeps you in the game longer than FOMO ever will.

Run at just 15%? I’m still waiting for it to double, haha... But your stop-loss approach is definitely more disciplined—much more reliable than my gambler-style holding.

Uh, set a stop loss at just 15%? All the coins I was optimistic about got stopped out by me like this... and then I just watched them skyrocket.

Ran away at just 15%, that's really timid. I'm still waiting for 30.

Stop-loss sounds easy but is hard to execute, especially when you see the coin shooting up... But bro, this move was spot on. Surviving longer really is more important than living passionately.
