This is a detailed reflection on my recent DOGEUSDT Perpetual short trade, taken on the 1-hour timeframe with 10x isolated leverage. After a strong impulsive move to the upside, DOGE reached the 0.1329 – 0.1330 resistance area, a zone where price had previously struggled. At that moment, I reminded myself not to get emotionally excited by green candles and not to chase the market.
Before entering the trade, I spent time observing price behavior. Although the trend was bullish in the short term, the momentum near resistance began to weaken. Rejection candles and hesitation around the moving averages suggested that buyers were losing strength. From experience, I know that many losses come from entering too late, so I waited for confirmation instead of acting on impulse.
Emotionally, this trade was not easy. I felt confidence in my analysis, but at the same time, I was fully aware that the market can always move against my expectations. I accepted the possibility of a loss before entering. This mindset helped me stay calm, because once you accept the risk, fear has less control over your decisions.
I entered the short position at 0.13212, with a total size of 4,090 DOGE. I deliberately avoided using higher leverage, even though the platform allows it. My focus was capital protection, not maximizing profit. In my past trades, over-leveraging caused unnecessary stress and emotional mistakes, so this time I chose discipline over greed.
After entry, I consciously avoided staring at every candle. Watching the chart too closely often leads to panic exits or revenge trading. I told myself that whether the trade ends in profit or loss, my job was already done once the plan was executed correctly. This mental shift helped me stay patient and trust my strategy.
As the trade progressed, price moved slowly but steadily in my favor. There was no sharp drop, but the market respected the resistance zone. At the time of writing, the trade shows an unrealized profit of +3.55 USDT, with an ROI of +6.50%. While this may seem like a small gain, emotionally it represents a big improvement in my trading journey.
What I value most about this trade is not the profit, but the process. I followed my rules, controlled my emotions, respected risk, and avoided impulsive decisions. Even if this trade had ended in a loss, I would still consider it a good trade because the execution was correct.
This experience reinforced some important lessons for me. Losses are an unavoidable part of trading, and trying to avoid them completely only leads to bigger mistakes. Risk management is more important than win rate. Small, consistent gains combined with controlled losses build long-term confidence and sustainability.
My advice to other traders is simple but powerful: don’t rush entries, don’t chase price, and don’t let emotions control your actions. Always define your risk before entering a trade, accept the outcome in advance, and focus on consistency rather than big profits. Trading is not about being right every time, but about surviving long enough to grow.
