$GUN this small coin really knows how to play. The position wasn't large, but when it surged to 0.02898, it generated over 1600% return, and at that moment, I was holding a floating profit of 250U. Clearly, it was time to take profits, but I chose to gamble instead.
Thinking that since things were already like this, I might as well hold and see if it could hit a new high. And what happened? The market gave me a loud slap — the price directly returned to the starting point. That little bit of hope vanished in an instant. By the time I regained my senses, there was only a pitiful profit of a dozen or so U remaining in my account.
This round of operation clearly demonstrated the cost of greed. It seems that the long-term holding strategy doesn't suit someone like me who lacks execution discipline. If I had known to cut at 0.02898, I could have at least pocketed over 300U in profit. The lesson is clear — in the high-volatility game of small coins, you must take profits when the time is right.

This is a classic case of greed killing people. You get 250U and want to run immediately, unwilling to wait until everything is gone.

Greed is really poison. The unrealized profit of 250U was forcibly turned into just a few U. This move perfectly illustrates what "losing both wife and soldiers" means.

Damn, this is a classic paper hand. The unrealized profit of 250U was turned into just over 10U. Greed really can kill.

Greed is indeed the biggest enemy in the crypto world, going from 1600% back to break-even... This wave of losses was quite severe.

A floating profit of 250U is really gone, this is the curse of small coins—one second heaven, one second hell.

Greed really can be deadly. A floating profit of 250U was played down to just a few U, and this loss is well deserved.

Another story of taking profits when the time is right, but nobody can really do that, right?
---
A 1600% return was gambled all the way back to the starting point. I have to say, you must have a really strong mentality to keep playing.
---
Small coins are like this: you make quick money but also lose it the fastest. Without execution, you don’t deserve to play.
---
The moment it hit 0.02898, it should have been cut. But you insisted on gambling, and now it’s too late to regret.
---
Watching the account drop from 250U to just a few U is a lesson that runs deep.
---
Holding long-term with this theory is just a joke on highly volatile small coins.
---
Honestly, greed harms people. How long will it take this time to break even?
---
I just want to ask, if given another chance, would you dare to take profits at the high point again?
---
That’s why I say small coins can’t be played for too long. Once the mentality breaks, everything is over.
