Selling to early

This is a problem for both traders and investors.

Part of the problem is the thrill of a winner, we've made money and we want to lock in that profit so the thrill doesn't go away, and we sell - but we sell way early.

The bigger issue is what are you trying to achieve?

  • As always know your strategy and know why you entered a position.
  • Be real about taking profits, that is why we're in the market.
  • But balance that with giving winners space to win even more.

Analysis of previous winners you exited early. Why did you do exit and what could you have done to stay in longer? What about some you exited at the right profit point?
