Many people were still hesitating just now, but this plunge under $CGPT has already answered the question. My short entry was at 0.02421; now it’s at 0.01914, profit +1010.5%. Once the room for volatility opens up, the chart rarely gives people time to slowly think things through.

The key is here: it can’t push higher continuously. Each time there’s a retracement, sell orders press it down. This kind of action looks frustrating, but it’s really draining the patience of the longs. Before a real trend change, what’s most likely to show up is fake strength—on the surface it’s still holding, but underneath it’s already loosening.

What I was watching at the time was the strength of the bounce and changes in order book support. Once the structure clearly changed, shorts stopped being a guess and instead followed the rhythm. Now that the profits have already been realized, if you have a position, you can take profit in batches with an 80/20 split, and keep a protective stop on the remaining portion—don’t let gains retrace too much.

If you can eat this move, take it and accept it first—don’t get greedy for the last leg. Don’t chase shorts if you missed it, and don’t chase longs on the rebound either. Wait for a more comfortable position.
