HOLD OR CLOSE ? You Have to Stop Asking This 🛑

Every day, I get the same panicked question: Hold or close? When I look at their trades, it’s often the same story—down -800% with 10x leverage, liquidation looming. And I think, Now you’re deciding? Trading isn’t supposed to feel like defusing a bomb. It should be stress-free, knowing that if a trade goes south, it’s just a small scratch—not a crater. You move on to the next trade, confident that over time, your edge will win out.

Statistically, if your strategy works, you’ll come out ahead. But here’s the catch: your brain isn’t wired to think statistically. It’s wired to panic, to chase, to freeze. So how do you reprogram that wiring? Here are a few things that will help you stop stressing about Hold or close?

1️⃣ Use Stop-Losses Religiously
Set them when you enter a trade and stick to them. This isn’t optional—it’s survival.

2️⃣ Size Your Positions Properly
If your trade feels like a make-or-break moment, it’s too big. Keep your risk per trade small enough to sleep at night.

3️⃣ Have a Plan (and Follow It)
Know your entry, exit, and stop before you trade. The market doesn’t care about your feelings; you shouldn’t either.

4️⃣ Detach from the Outcome
Focus on the process, not the result. A single trade isn’t your trading career—it’s just one of many.

5️⃣ Practice Emotional Discipline
Meditation, journaling, or even taking breaks from the screen can help you stay calm and objective.
