This short position finally paid off. The moment $BTC was pushed down from the highs, the chart was not a normal pullback.



This time, I was watching the overhead resistance that BTC kept failing to break through. My entry was at 76861.4. Back then, many people were still waiting for it to keep rallying, but what really caught my attention was that the bounce-back got weaker and weaker—buyers couldn’t hold it up, and the structure clearly changed.

Now the price is at 64121.4, and the short position’s profit is already up to +2880.75%. The room in the market has been released very directly. I won’t try to imagine taking it all in one bite—80/20 staged execution feels better. First lock in part of the profits, then keep the remaining position with the protection level set, and see whether it can continue extending further downward.

What trading fears most is not making less, but having profits come out and then getting swallowed back by volatility. Once the high-level resistance breaks down and plays out, handle it in rhythm. If you didn’t get on board, don’t rush—at this kind of level, chasing a short can easily get washed out by a bounce-back. Missing the trade and not chasing is fine; wait for the next time it offers a more comfortable entry.
