The most interesting part of this $RUNE decline is not the final plunge, but the repeated opportunities at the highs when the longs had already shown weakness.

At that time, I looked at the order book around 0.4544. The rallies lacked continuity, while the pullbacks became more decisive each time. I'm very familiar with this rhythm; it's usually not just a quick washout but rather funds starting to push the price down to create space. Many people still thought it would go up again, but something was off here—the weaker the retracement, the greater the advantage for the shorts.

Now it's at 0.3989, short position profit +588.19%, the trend extension is obvious. The most comfortable part of this trade is that you don't need to guess the top at key levels; as long as you confirm resistance at the highs and then follow the breakdown, the odds become much clearer.

The current profit is already substantial. Handling it in 80/20 batches is more stable; keep the remaining position with a stop loss and continue to observe. If the subsequent retracement is strong, first lock in the gains; if it remains weak, then watch for a continuation. If you missed it, don't chase—the market doesn't lack opportunities; wait for a more comfortable entry next time.
