That's the dilemma even if you commit not to sell any large amount but a small to sell at "high" and buy back "low"... you don't know when this will happen.... I have to confess here that when this year BTC hit $40k i did thought of selling "some" ... but I did not (thanks God) and however later sold "some" at $54k and $53k... just to buy back later.. i never cashed it out... but now I have been waiting since then to buy it back
in the past i have cashed out at price points thats were "good enough" as in you never do know when honey badger will decide to dig a crater, just for fun, and spend week or months playing down there. so i cash out enough for a couple years maybe, plus some extra. i spread the sell out over some weeks or months to minimize noise.
the extra. if the price does down generally rebuy with it.
my goal is to ride out the "who the hell REALLY knows where the price will be" parts in relative comfort. 70% crash for months? *yawn* 100% rise? sweet! just means whatever corn i might have left is worth even more.
thats staid i have left profit on the table at times. but in my goals and plans, redundancy and safety is a big factor. sit back and relax is my gig.
