Noob investor here: now that everything is really high, how do you book your profits? I want to make a profit right now and wait for a downturn to buy again.

A year ago I said to myself, “$900 BTC is really high, let me pay off my student loans first...” not saying you should throw in all your income, but I feel like no one can ever answer the question...

So sell right now and buy again when it's low.

^^ This?

I mean.. do you sell to usd via coin base or something? The fees are like really high (like1.5%) and so it’s like I’m losing 3% just booking profits. I was just asking if there’s another way to do it.

I feel like if you’re really disciplined and can force yourself to not fold during downturns or fomo buy during upticks, the move is to set low buy orders and then wait it out.

Use gdax. No fees. Then transfer to your bank. Also no fees

I use asset allocation I have a set amount of money for Crypto, I keep 20% bitcoin, 60% eth, and 20% cash, is the percentages get more than 10 percent off I make an adjustment

I'm a young professional finishing my first year of my career. Last month I opened a brokerage account & invested $4000 in the stock market.

How did you get started?

$530k HHI, $250k cash on hand, $1.2M investments/retirement. Plan to buy $800-900k house as our first home, but thinking of the best approach given rates today. My thinking is that we (i) put $200k+ down and get a 5/1 ARM. (ii) put everything we save moving forward toward paying down the principal (after maximizing retirement accounts). Should be able to do $100k per year. (iii) If rates go down below 4.5ish % for 15 year fixed, refinance and stop aggressive payment. Thoughts on this approach?
