It depends. 1. Sell too early

It depends.

1. Sell too early but never get profit or only break even, and then price surge. That's a bad feeling. Horrible. You will tell yourself why never wait.

2. Sell too early but already got profit, this one feels better. At least there was profits. Also, if you had reinvested, and the other asset increased in price. You wouldn't think too much. If your reinvestment drops, then maybe you feel bad too, like in Option 1 above.

3. If you totally missed out, normally I don't care. Since I'm not in the game.

Is Selling Too Early More Painful Than Missing Out?

Masayoshi Son once came close to becoming $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$’s largest shareholder, holding nearly 5% of the company. However, a few years ago, he sold all his NVIDIA shares for less than $4 billion. Had he held on until now, those shares would be worth approximately $180 billion—far exceeding his investment returns from Alibaba.
