3:43 PM – Selling half my GPN position here and locking in a solid gain. I have been in a selling mode today because I currently own too many stocks and may be carrying too much exposure in an increasingly shaky market. With my personal trading account at all-time highs—up 20% YTD and 60% YoY—my priority is protecting those gains and reducing unnecessary risk.

James’ Trader’s Tip: Reduce Exposure From a Position of Strength

  • Trimming a profitable position allows you to lock in gains while maintaining some exposure if the stock continues higher.

  • When portfolio exposure becomes excessive, reducing positions can lower both market risk and margin pressure.

  • Protecting an account at all-time highs requires discipline—not complacency.
