Held for 3 months and turned a solid profit. That's when things got interesting.

The moment I closed the position to lock in gains, the vibe flipped instantly. People who were supportive while I was in the trade started questioning whether I really knew what I was doing. Respect turned into "seems like he's struggling" the second I decided to take my earnings off the table.

Here's the thing though—I'm not here to appease the crowd or prove anything to the community. When you're trading your own capital, you make your own calls. You don't answer to the narrative. You read the market, execute your plan, and move on. That's literally how this works. Not everyone gets it, and honestly, that's fine.
