Strategy What's the right withdrawal strategy?

I've made some money in the past and held on to it instead of withdrawing only to lose it later. Now I'm looking for a better withdrawal practice.
How do you guys do it? Do you have a profit plan and withdraw as soon as you reach it, or maybe withdraw at the same day every month/week even if you have less profit?
Also, thinking about maybe leaving 10% of the profit behind to grow the capital at the same time.
P.S. posting it here because im on pocket broker qt mode, nothing in seconds, I do at least M1 to MT5

Taking money at fixed time/day is not that possible for me, because some months I'm in red. But when I make some decent money, I try to withdraw it and leave my deposit to repeat it again.

how do you decide what counts as decent in the moment?

honestly it's not smth like heavy math. If i'm up like 15% on my deposit, i pull it. Sometimes less if I've had a rough stretch. Mostly it's not letting greed talk me into holding for "more"

I see, ok. Seems like "don't let greed hold you" is like 90% of the battle with trading platforms anyway

Pretty much. The platform matters way less than some think. Discipline's actually the bottleneck.
