While many are still hesitating, $VIRTUAL has already started to weaken in this period. The real signal doesn't only appear when the price drops — it appears the moment the price repeatedly fails to hold at highs.
I entered this short at 0.7258. What I was watching wasn't a single candlestick, but the fact that every time it surged, it was quickly pushed back down, indicating heavy selling pressure above. Now the price is at 0.5178, with gains reaching +2034.42%. The trend extension is obvious, and this kind of payoff is very straightforward.
To put it bluntly, this move wasn't chased — it was waiting for confirmation and then following the rhythm. Many people earlier saw a bounce and wanted to go long, but here the structure has clearly changed. The weaker the bounce, the more comfortable the bears.
Now that profits have been released, if you have a heavy position, you can first split into 80/20 batches, set a trailing stop, and don't let the profits you've already secured be eaten back by a bounce. If you haven't entered yet, don't force it — the worst thing for a short is to chase at the tail. Wait for the next opportunity.
