Day 10 · Design Your "Exit Strategy": Profit Taking Requires More Discipline Than Entry


Good morning, clear-headed strategist.
This is #币圈100天成长计划 day 10/100.
🎯 Most people spend 99% of their time thinking about "what to buy" and "when to buy," but use the last 1% of impulse to decide "when to sell."
The result is often: buying precisely at the breakout point, but vaguely giving back most of the profits to the market.
Entry tests your analytical ability, while exit tests your human nature and system.
Without a pre-set exit strategy, any unrealized gains are just a fancy IOU, which the market can reclaim at any time.
💎 Today's Construction: Your "Emotion-Free Exit" Framework
Exits should not be based on "feeling it's not moving up" or "fear of a pullback," but on objective standards you set before investing:
🔔 Exit Trigger Checklist:
▫️ Goal Achieved: Has the price reached your initial fundamental valuation target or technical target?
▫️ Logic Failure: Has the core logic supporting your investment (narrative, technical progress, data) weakened or been disproven?
▫️ Risk Escalation: Has the overall market risk (leverage ratio, greed index, macro environment) risen to an unacceptable level?
▫️ Opportunity Cost: Is there a potential risk-reward opportunity that is significantly better, requiring you to reallocate funds?
✨ Key Action: Immediately after buying, write down
Be sure to clearly note next to each investment record:
1. My Exit Condition A (Success): ______
2. My Exit Condition B (Failure): ______
3. My Exit Condition C (Unexpected): ______
Sun Tzu said: "The best warfare is to win without fighting; the first to be invincible, then wait for the enemy to be vulnerable." In investing, "being invincible first" means establishing and adhering to your exit discipline, ensuring you stay in the game.
👇 What was your most unforgettable "exit" (whether successfully locking in profits or stopping loss)? What discipline did you learn from it?

Agreed, profit must be realized; otherwise, it's just numbers.
