Only aiming for a 2x profit before exiting, what is the underlying logic behind this?
Some say a 2x return is already quite substantial, and securing profits promptly is the best strategy. But others believe this is too conservative—assets that eventually double in a bear market might have deserved to be held for another round.
In fact, there is no standard answer to this question. Risk appetite, capital size, market cycle judgment... every trader's situation is different. Some accumulate wealth with a stable 2x return, while others gamble for a 10x return only to lose everything.
What is your take-profit strategy? Do you exit once the target multiple is reached, or do you adjust flexibly based on fundamentals and technical analysis?

Run when it's double, it sounds stable, but what I fear more is missing out... During the bear market, watching others multiply by 10 times really broke my mentality.

Recalling the preservation paradox of medieval manuscripts—some carefully collect them, while others rush to cash out. Doubling out is actually a rational "antiquity pricing," knowing when to let go.

Running away at 2x is really conservative. I've seen too many people miss out on 10x coins this way.

I just say that people who run after 2x are either unstable or have never really seen a bull market.
There are quite a few who gamble 10x and lose everything, which is why I never go all in.
Focusing on fundamentals is the real key; multiples are just illusions.
Honestly, greed harms people. Isn't holding steady at 2x better than dreaming of 10x?
Sometimes getting out early actually earns the most, think about it.

Running away at double the amount shows you lack confidence in your own judgment—that's the real reason.
