Single-day drop of 29%, $AIN fell from 0.115 to 0.0774. My short position now has an unrealized profit of 21%, with 4x leverage, and I haven't closed yet.

Let me make it clear first: this is a recovery trade. I lost 40% on another altcoin two weeks ago, and this short wave has pulled back half of my principal. I don't look at charts or indicators; I just watch the order book, pending orders, and funding rate.

Now it's stabilizing around 0.0801, but volume is still expanding, with $90M in trading volume, indicating that panic selling hasn't cleared yet. My plan is straightforward:

1. If the low at 0.0774 below holds, I'll keep the position and lock in profits, targeting a rebound to 0.083-0.085, which is the moving average resistance on the 15-minute chart. 2. If it breaks below 0.0774 with accelerating volume, I won't wait—I'll add a bit to the short position, targeting 0.072, with a stop loss at 0.081.

I predict two scenarios: Scenario A—Washout and recovery: Heavy buy orders near 0.078, large buy trades consecutively entering, price rebounds to 0.083 forming a small double bottom. In that case, the current level of 0.080 might be a good entry for a short-term long position, light at 1x leverage, take profit at 0.085, stop loss at 0.077. Scenario B—Continued crash: Once 0.0774 breaks, retail stop-loss orders get triggered in a cascade, short positions add pressure in resonance, seeing 0.072 within half an hour. Don't bargain-hunt in this scenario.

To put it bluntly, the fundamentals of this coin are garbage right now—it's purely speculative money and sentiment. If you want to follow, test the waters with small positions; don't get carried away.

Trade suggestion: Short at current price 0.0801, stop loss at 0.0825, take profit at 0.0775 and 0.0720. Position size should not exceed 2x leverage. Don't copy my 4x—I'm only doing this to recover my principal.
