🧵1/10 Crypto Profit-Taking Strategies Here are some FREE tips that can help you take profits while staying invested! NFA. DYOR.
🧵2/10 Set Price Targets Choose when to sell part of your cryptocurrency. A method I was taught was to sell enough to get back my principal amount invested, and then let the rest ride and shave profits as it reaches targets. Figure out what style best suits your risk levels.
🧵3/10 Trailing Stop Losses Consider setting up a trailing stop loss to automatically sell cryptocurrency when the price drops by a certain percentage from its peak. This can helps to lock in profits and reduce losses.
🧵4/10 Dollar-Cost Averaging Out DCA isn't just for buying in, it can also be used for getting out of a crypto during it's climb. It involves dividing holdings into parts and selling them slowly, e.g. 10% per week/month, until the profit goal is reached.
🧵5/10 Take Profits in Commodity-Backed Stablecoins Consider trading out profits into commodity-backed(such as gold/silver) stablecoins. This means staying invested in crypto, but holding a token with the value of a tangible commodity such as precious metals.
🧵6/10 Rebalance Your Portfolio If you own multiple different tokens, consider shaving(taking small profits) from the ones that have done well and reinvesting the proceeds in coins with more potential. Example: taking profits from an altcoin to increase Bitcoin holdings.
🧵7/10 Hold a Percentage of Your Portfolio Long-Term It can be good to hold a portion of your crypto long-term, even if you are taking profits. This could help with market fluctuations and enable long-term growth.
🧵8/10 Utilize Technical Indicators Technical analysis can help you spot market trends and price targets. Use indicators like moving averages to decide when to sell or adjust your crypto holdings.
🧵9/10 Using Options If you know options trading, you can use options to make potential profits from your crypto holdings. Options give you the choice to sell crypto at a set price. This is good if you want to take profits while still riding the market's potential.
🧵10/10 Do Your Own Research Remember, taking profits from your crypto investments doesn't mean you have to exit the market entirely. No single strategy is best for taking profits in crypto. Do your own research, know the risks and only invest what you can afford to lose.
