Finally going to lock into my strategy

Been trading options for about 4 years on and off. My main issue is that I will get up 20-50% or more, and I don’t sell because I believe in my conviction, then I slowly (or quickly) get melted. I just did the math for if I would just get out at a 20% profit every trade, and I guess I didn’t realize that I could be really good at this if I just de-risk. Being completely honest, it’s rare that my trades don’t get to +20% at some point within the trade. This seems easy enough right? I’ve been doing this for 4 days now and I have made a good amount of money. I guess I’ll start doing this all the time lol. People always say the best way to consistently make money in options is to not treat it like a casino, but I think I just realized just how big a 20% profit can be if compounded. I will update when all my money is gone. 😁
