The recent dump scared many people out, but I actually think this is the most comfortable stretch for short positions to cash out.

$TAO had been grinding high for a long time, looking like it wanted to hold on the surface, but each upward push was rejected. What really caught my attention were those fake breakouts near 270.4 — they pushed up but no one followed, and the pullbacks got faster. The structure clearly changed here.

So I held the short position without running away, waiting for the acceleration after the breakdown. Now the current price has come to 213.7, and this trade shows a +1009.82% gain — the volatility space has opened up quite directly. Many people always wait for the perfect entry, but when the actual move happens, they don't dare to pull the trigger.

I'm not going to put all the profit on the remaining position. An 80/20 approach suits this rhythm better — take profit on the bulk, keep a protective stop on the tail, and see if there's further room to release.

If you're not in, don't force it — especially after a sharp drop, don't act impulsively. Wait for the next opportunity, wait for a more comfortable entry.
