You bought a silly cat coin. It's up 5x. You're a genius! Now what?
The Golden Rule: Take initial + profits.
Sell enough to recover your original investment. Let's say you put in $200. It's now worth $1,000. Sell $200 worth. Now, you're playing with "house money." Even if the coin goes to zero tomorrow, you didn't lose a dime of your original capital.

The promise of a "fair launch" for meme coins—no pre-sales, equal access—often hides a familiar trap. We repeatedly see a pattern: massive hype and a price surge at listing, followed by a swift crash. This "peak at launch" is a major red flag.
