This recent sharp sell-off was typical—it first wobbled upward, then directly pressed down the longs who were chasing. The high-range move of $FARTCOIN looked lively, but in reality, the follow-through was already very thin. The real change came after the short-term surge was swept away, without any further push higher.



I’d already noticed this area. Around 0.17378, I chose to open a short—not because I was calling it out loudly, but because the market gave confirmation: lots of upper wicks, weak pullbacks on the rebound, and a fast drop. Most people were still hesitating—should they wait for a higher price?—but then a single bearish candle came, and the momentum immediately flipped.

Now the price has hit 0.1467, and this short position is up to +1105.28%. The room for fluctuation has opened up smoothly. Here, I’ll first handle it in batches using an 80/20 approach—take some profit first, and use the protected level to manage the rest, so a sudden rebound won’t throw my mindset off.

The most expensive thing in contracts isn’t getting it wrong—it’s getting it right and still being unwilling to handle it. If you missed the move, don’t chase a short—wait for the rebound, wait for confirmation, wait for a more comfortable position, and make your move next time.
