This short position felt great. After $FIL was pushed down from the high, the chart finally cashed out all the earlier weakness.

Before the signal even came out, I’d already noticed changes. Multiple rebounds around 1.0505 failed to hold above that level. The price looked like it was still consolidating, but internally the rhythm had already turned bearish. Many people only focus on whether there would be a big bearish candle, ignoring the detail that the pullbacks were getting shorter and shorter. Simply put, once the buying power can’t push any further, it becomes easy for the shorts to follow through and break through.

Now we’re at 0.7629, and the current return is +1318.44%. The trend continuation is clear. I didn’t rush to act on those small rebounds in the middle; the key is that the protective level hadn’t been touched, the short (bearish) structure was still intact, and there was room for profits to keep rolling.

But once the profit is there, don’t let it get into your head. I handle it in an 80/20 split: first collect the bulk, then leave the remaining position to follow the chart. Losses-attractive profits may feel comfortable, but pullbacks are the easiest part to get scared by. If you miss it, don’t chase—this market won’t only give you one chance. Wait for the next time at a more comfortable level.
