$FIL made that move, and the market vibe has completely changed. Shorts went from 1.0505 to 0.7822, now +1,230.42%. This isn't just a simple pullback — it's a concentrated release after high-level pressure, finally unleashing the volatility that was building up.

What I was watching at the time was the ability to hold after a bounce. The price tried to push up several times, but each time it got pushed back, showing the selling pressure above never left. A lot of people only focus on short-term spikes and ignore the structure weakening. By the time it actually breaks down, there's nothing left to hesitate about.

The worst thing in this kind of market is holding onto profits while making money, then letting a bounce eat it all back. Now that the short position has decent profit, you can scale out 80/20 — take profit on the main position, and keep a protective stop on the rest. Give the trend a little room, but don't let profits turn into a critical risk point.

Plainly put, when you're making money, stay clear-headed. If you're not in, don't chase just because it dropped. If the entry doesn't feel right, skip it. Don't chase, wait for the next opportunity. The market will give you another rhythm.
