Many people are still hesitating, but this drop in $ICP has already written the answer on the chart. The short position went from 3.027 to 2.273, currently up +1199.57%. This isn’t luck—it’s the payout after earlier key levels were repeatedly broken.



What really caught my attention is that every time it pushes upward, it does so very aggressively, but the pullback is even faster, showing that the baton-passing buying up above is getting weaker. Back then it looked quite strong, but the structure had clearly changed already. The more the market pretends to hold up, the more violently it releases later.

What I’m doing on my side is to go long with the trend—not to chase every dip just because it’s falling. After the breakdown, I didn’t rush to close everything. I handled it in batches: 80/20 first. The priority was to lock in most of the profits, and then use the protection level(s) to keep following the rest. After the market’s room for expansion is released, what I fear most isn’t making less—it’s being greedy and throwing off the timing at the end.

The shorts are booking profits well now, but the closer you get to this kind of level, the more you need to stay calm. If you didn’t get it, don’t chase the downside. Don’t open shorts just because price moved down, and don’t chase based on emotion—wait for the next clean signal before moving.
