This wave of sell-off feels like an emotional counter-kill. Earlier, $ETH was oscillating at highs, and many were lured in by fake breakouts, only for the real direction to come later. As soon as the chart turned, all the key levels for chasing longs were exposed.



I had already noticed this level. Around 2185.21, repeated attempts to push higher failed—each spike was immediately sold off, indicating that the upside wasn't a breakout but rather a drain on chasing funds. After entering a short position, I focused on whether the pullback could continue. As a result, the price kept pressing down to 1739.4, with current profit at +3545.72%, and the range has opened up.

The most critical part of this trade was not being scared out by intraday bounces. In futures, many losses aren't due to wrong direction, but because short-term noise disrupts the rhythm. If you still have positions, don't just stare at floating profits. Use an 80/20 batch management, and set stop-losses for the remaining position to avoid giving back too much of the gains.

This is no longer the initial entry point. Don't blindly chase shorts at the lows. Don't chase trades; wait for a more comfortable entry.
