This $KGEN short position—what initially drew me in wasn’t the drop, but that it couldn’t keep rising. Many people like to wait until a big bearish candle shows up before reacting, but by the time everyone finally understands, the entry is often already uncomfortable. Put simply, opportunities are often hidden in hesitation.

In the earlier range, repeated attempts to push higher kept failing, so I started watching its rhythm. From 0.20275 it moved to 0.169, and there was a fairly aggressive pullback in between that nearly wore down my patience. The key was that after the pullback, it didn’t keep accelerating upward on volume—instead, it slowly started to bleed out.

That’s why I was willing to open a long—not because I was betting on a breakdown, but because I followed the confirmation of weakness. Now the unrealized profit feedback is +794.04%, and this pullback has already validated the judgment.

Going forward, I won’t recklessly chase shorts just because I’m in profit. I’ll handle it in batches first, and I’ll keep the protection level adjusted/followed up. If I miss it, then I miss it. In trading, living longer matters more than one move that looks really impressive.
