This time, the market simply stopped pretending! 🔥📉 A few days ago, right before sleep, $NEAR was still grinding at a high level—unable to rise cleanly, nor fall decisively. But what concerned me most was the top-side resistance and the quality of the bounces.

Before the market had fully taken off, NEAR kept testing the area around 2.1626, but every attempt fell short—volume wasn't there, and the buying support was weak. 👀 My judgment at the time was straightforward: don't chase longs at this level; open a short and wait for confirmation.

Some money isn't made by impulse.

Now the price has hit 1.8521, with a gain of +1018.43%. This wave of shorts provided the answer, and the timing was well executed. ✅🎯💰

Don't get greedy with position size—first close 80%, and protect the remaining 20% with cost-level stops. 📌🛑 If it continues to drop, let the profit run; if it bounces back, don't turn a comfortable trade into a pivotal struggle.

Take profits when it's time to take profits. ⚠️ If you missed it, don't chase—chasing leads to a shaky mindset. Wait for a retest confirmation, wait for a more comfortable entry in the next round. 🔔
