I just took profit on my long position, so I’ll review it while the memory is still fresh. At the time, the market was moving sideways, with the moving averages on the hourly chart converging tightly and volatility narrowing further, clearly indicating that positions were being compressed. I judged that the direction would most likely break upward, so I first accumulated part of the long position near the lower edge of the range. The move started slightly later than I expected, with even several false dips along the way. However, none of the dips broke down the range structure, and the key levels were actually rising. This type of movement usually suggests a significant amount of shakeout, so I not only held my position but also increased it. When the market officially broke out, volume provided good confirmation, and the price surged directly upward. After the floating profit reached +1441.17%, I followed my rules: first secured 70% of the profit, then set a protective level for the remainder and let the profits run. The price did continue to rise on momentum afterward, but as momentum slowed, I found an opportunity to close the remaining position as well. Looking back, the key to this trade was not chasing the move, but being willing to hold the position through the consolidation. Going forward, I’ll watch that breakout platform and continue looking for long opportunities if a pullback confirms its validity. If the price falls back inside the range, that would indicate a failed breakout, so I’ll simply avoid entering again. $XRP $ZEC

This was purely the market being in a good mood and casually tossing out some gold coins—one just happened to hit me on the head. While everyone else was running, I was instead watching for a fake move. $IN surged sharply and aggressively, but the volume simply didn’t match up, making it look like a bull trap no matter how I looked at it. I didn’t rush in; instead, I placed a short position around 0.09355. Being out of the market is not a sin; opening positions recklessly is. After the sentiment cooled and the price slowly returned to 0.03503, +3011.48% was secured—what a rush. In terms of execution, I first took 80% off the table, then followed the stop-loss plan for the remaining 20%. Don’t let profits ride a roller coaster. The money you earn is the realization of your understanding; the money you lose is the flaw in your understanding. This move has already been realized. I’ll call it again when the next structure emerges and looks promising. Don’t be jealous if you missed the entry; blindly chasing trades is the start of losses. There will be more opportunities, so don’t rush. Keeping your mindset steady is more important than anything. $XRP $BTC

I originally wanted to cut my losses and sacrifice to the heavens, but the ritual never happened—the meat cooked itself. When the price plunged intraday, the market action had not fully kicked off yet. I watched the volume for a few minutes: no matter how hard the price tried to surge, it could not break through, while sell orders kept coming in wave after wave. This kind of market is just handing points to the bears; hesitation only makes it easy to miss the opportunity. I would rather miss a limit-up than catch a falling knife and end up covered in blood. So I placed a short order at 0.03226 first and waited for it to lose steam on its own. Looking again just now, the price had already reached 0.00939, with +3414.04% holding steady. The guys on board should have woken up laughing. For now, close 80% of the position and set the remaining 20% to breakeven protection—let the bullets fly a little longer. The prerequisite for compound growth is staying alive; the shortcut to getting rich overnight is often going to zero. To those who have not gotten on board yet, hear me out: this is not the time to rush in. Chasing shorts now could easily leave you stuck halfway up the mountain. Most of this move is already over, so do not get jealous—there will be more opportunities later. Wait for the next signal before making a move; if no signal comes, just sit tight. $XRP $LAB
