    When To Sell a Stock

    Sell a long term position when one of these is true:   You already hit your “freedom number.” If the goal is reached and you are locking in lifestyle security, reducing risk, or shifting into more stable assets, selling can make sense. The fundamentals broke, not just the price. Revenue model changes, margins deteriorate, leadership issues, regulation, or the company loses its edge. If the business is no longer what you originally bought, it is not a “hold,” it is a new decision. They lost their moat and fell out of the top tier. If they are no longer one or two in the space, and competitors are clearly winning, that is a real reason to exit. Permanent capital loss risk is rising. Too much debt, weak balance sheet, dilution, shrinking market, or “hope” is the strategy. Risk rules were violated. If you use a stop-loss or max drawdown rule (example: 25%), you follow it. A long term timeframe is not an excuse to ignore risk management. Opportunity cost is too high. Even if it might recover, your money could work harder elsewhere in a stronger business or better trend.     In short: Do not sell just because you are scared or because the headlines are loud. Sell when the goal is met, the thesis changes, the moat is gone, or risk management demands it.   Subscribe and watch more videos here: https://www.youtube.com/@EarnYourLeisure Join the EYL community for deeper training and a more detailed approach:https://www.eyluniversity.com Join the number one stock club in the world:https://www.ianinvest.com Invest Fest | August 7-9, 2026Grab early bird tickets now: https://www.investfest.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    The Coinbase Trap_ Why Short-Term Trades are DANGEROUS Right Now!

    They used Coinbase as a real-time example of why short-term trades can be dangerous, especially around earnings.   The setup looked bearish: crypto was in a down cycle, other platforms like Robinhood had already shown crypto revenue weakness, Coinbase depends heavily on crypto (with a big chunk tied to Bitcoin), and Coinbase’s earnings came in with misses plus weak guidance and even analyst downgrades. A short-dated put seemed logical.   But after-hours price action flipped the script. Despite all the “bad news,” Coinbase popped hard, likely from institutional buying and a short squeeze, and the put got crushed because options traders can’t adjust positions after 4pm. The lesson: even when you’re “right” on the fundamentals, short-term options can still lose because momentum, squeezes, and liquidity hunts can override logic.   Their takeaway: if you insist on trading puts, give yourself more time (they suggested roughly 1 month, maybe up to 6 weeks), avoid tight stops, and account for volatility so you don’t get wicked out.
