This short position has finally paid off. The pressure at the $AVAX high was not a fake move; there was real capital pushing it down.

I started watching this trade around 9.312. What really caught my attention was that the bounces were getting weaker—price would spike up but no one would buy, and the pullbacks were very sharp. Many were still waiting for another leg up at the time, but something was off. The structure had clearly changed, and the bearish rhythm began to take over.

Now the price has hit 6.685, and the position is up +2002.48%. This move released a lot of space quite satisfyingly. Simply put, direction is not determined by shouting; it's verified step by step by the charts.

For those holding positions, don't get too carried away. I'd feel more comfortable with an 80/20 scale-out plan—take partial profits first, then let the rest run with a protective stop. The worst thing in a short trade is getting greedy and letting a reversal eat away your gains.

For those who missed the entry, don't chase. Especially after the price has already dropped a lot—don't chase the trade. Wait for a more favorable entry next time.
