This round of shorts is honestly pretty satisfying. When $EWY was surging earlier, a lot of people were still calling for it to keep going higher, but I felt this level was too crowded—when things get more heated, you have to be more careful. In fact, this level had already been noticed earlier: after pressure built at the highs, it never really gave a strong continuation.

I opened a long around 198.58. At the time, it wasn’t especially decisive, and there were also a few pullbacks in between that nearly ground my patience down. The real change happened right here: the rebound strength kept getting weaker each time, the buy pressure couldn’t hold, and the shorts’ momentum started to fall into a smoother rhythm.

Now, from the entry price to the current 184.88, the return rate has reached +169.17%. This feedback has been more than enough. To put it simply, after the market validates your take, what you fear most isn’t missing out on a little more profit—it’s getting carried away after you start making money.

For now, I’ll protect my profits first, and let the market play out the rest on its own. If you missed the move, don’t chase—going in after the fact often means you’re helping someone else close out. Wait for the next signal that feels more comfortable.
