This short position has finally paid off. $ADA came under pressure from its highs, and the pace has been more aggressive than many expected. Entry at 0.2438, now price at 0.1666, position profit has reached +2246.82% — this price move has been delivered directly.

At the time, I wasn't focusing on a single bearish candle, but rather the repeated failure to push higher, with buying momentum becoming increasingly weak. Many were still waiting for a breakout; what I saw was the speed of pullbacks after highs accelerating — something was off.

Holding this short until now, the most important thing is not excitement but managing the profits. My approach remains steady: handle it in 80/20 batches, lock in most of the profit first, then keep a small position with a protected stop to watch for further extension. When the trend extension is clear, the worst thing is to have profits reversed by a pullback.

If you missed this wave, don't rush. A miss is a miss. Don't chase trades, and don't emotionally chase shorts. Wait for the next more comfortable entry.
