There's a reason I exited that position way back around $16 instead of chasing further—I'd watched the hype spiral out of control for months. Everyone was screaming ATH this, $100+ that, the kind of euphoria that usually marks a local peak. And here's the thing: that's precisely when you step back. Don't get caught up in the noise. Let price action tell the story, not the crowd's FOMO. The hardest part of trading isn't picking winners—it's knowing when to walk away before the reversal hits. Take what the market gives you, stick to your conviction, and don't feel obligated to chase. Your future self will thank you.

Honestly, people who sell at $16 are really clear-headed. I was still hyping up to $100 in the group back then...

To be honest, this kind of top signal is really accurate every time. When everyone was hyping it up online, I knew it was time to sell.

Really, I've seen too many people see their $100 dreams shattered; it's about time to learn to exit at the peak.

I've already said it, the clearest sign of a top is when everyone is screaming "buy buy buy," and by then I had already run away.

Really, seeing that wave of FOMO, I knew it was time to exit... The key is having a take-profit mindset; most people get wiped out because of greed.

This guy is so right, the scream at the peak is the loudest and it's time to run.
