A trader has gained quite a bit in this ETH market cycle, with unrealized profits reaching 230,000 USDT, but has yet to choose to take profits. Does this decision to hold without closing reflect confidence in the future market trend, or overconfidence in their own judgment? Market opinions on such persistent holding traders vary—some admire their boldness, while others worry about their risk awareness. From a trading psychology perspective, when faced with such unrealized gains, the temptation to take profits versus the desire to hold continues to be a game of strategy. So, the key question is: will Ethereum continue to rise, or face a correction? This not only tests technical analysis but also the trader’s psychological resilience and risk management skills.

$230,000 unrealized profit, and you’re reluctant to cash out? This guy is really ruthless—either a genius or a total disaster.

Alright, a floating profit of 230,000 and not taking profits? My buddy's mental toughness is really strong, I need to learn from him. --- Honestly, this is a game of psychological resilience versus risk awareness. It's a bit addictive. --- There are no traders who exit with half their position; sooner or later, they'll pay the market tuition. --- I just want to know what happened to that guy later—did he blow up or really make big gains? --- Unrealized profits are just on paper; I've been trapped by this before. --- But on the other hand, among those who stick to it, some do end up making a lot. --- Having a good mindset is great, but ETH could spike at any moment. I would have already exited. --- Is this confidence or gambler's mentality? It all depends on how the market moves afterward. --- In my opinion, if floating profits exceed 10%, you should take profits in stages; the rest can be held. --- From the looks of it, this guy is really optimistic about the future; otherwise, he would have closed his position long ago.

Is 230,000 not enough? Bro, is this a gambler's mentality or do you really have confidence?
