This short position finally played out. The order book went from stubborn resistance to a breakdown, and the pace quickly picked up.

When $MON pushed higher, a lot of people were still watching for continuation. At the time, I was focused on how strongly it pulled back after pressure at the high. What really caught my attention was that after the price reached around 0.02476, repeated attempts to break higher failed to open up any meaningful room—the buy side started to look thin, and the structure clearly changed.

After entering the short, I didn’t rush to declare the result; I waited for confirmation. Now the price is already at 0.02324. This move long enough to turn into profit has run to +295.63%, and the market room released fairly directly.

For brothers who are in positions, I think handling it in an 80/20 split is more comfortable: take part of the profit first, and use the protective level for the rest. Don’t let a single small rebound scare you out, and don’t go completely wild just because you’re in profit—contracts are most afraid of profit being given back.

If you didn’t get on board, don’t force the chase, especially after this kind of selloff has been realized—your entry is already not cheap. Don’t chase the trade; wait for the next opportunity.
