I want to say this directly: that part of the $ETH price action at the highs clearly shows someone is controlling the pace. On the surface, it keeps pumping to give hope, but in reality every time it surges up, it gets smashed down—money’s attitude is already written on the chart.

What really caught my attention was the rebound near 2185.21. The speed was very fast, but the follow-through was poor. It felt like they deliberately lured people in and then pushed it down. After I got the short position, I didn’t rush to close, because the structure was clearly changing. After a weak rebound, it just kept moving lower. Now the price is at 1799.09, with unrealized profit of +3070.9%, and the market’s room for movement has been fully released.

After taking profits, you should actually rein in your mindset—don’t start smashing just because one trade worked out. On my side, I take profit in batches using an 80/20 split; the remainder is observed with protective levels. As long as the rebound doesn’t reclaim the key zone, I’ll keep letting the profits run.

If you missed it, don’t chase the downside—you’ll easily get wicked out by a rebound. Don’t chase; wait for the next position with stronger confirmation.
