Scaling out of $FORM positions while protecting profits? Here's a solid approach: lock in gains on partial positions first, then slide your stop loss down to break-even once you've secured some wins. This way you're running the upside with risk-free capital while locking in real profits early. Classic risk/reward management that lets you stay in winning trades longer without sweating the volatility.

Old timers, this move is indeed a solid strategy... but the prerequisite is that you actually make a profit, otherwise it's just armchair strategizing.

ngl the break-even stop loss thing feels theoretically sound until you actually backtest it across different volatility regimes... insufficient validation on execution slippage there

Bro, this strategy is indeed reliable. Taking profits in batches is truly a rare wisdom to witness.

NGL, this move is indeed old but effective, locking in profits while leaving some risk-free... it's just that most people can't execute it and always want to be greedy.

The key is to keep a steady mindset and not be scared away by the fluctuations.
