The hardest part of this $AZTEC drop isn’t the drawdown itself—it’s that it first lured a batch of people into the bounce back. At the start, the order book looked quite strong, and many people were hesitating whether to chase longs—this is the key point.

I noticed this spot earlier. When repeated overhead resistance showed up and price offered an opportunity around 0.02762, I chose to follow the short. What truly confirmed it for me was that after sweeping the liquidity above, the pullback accelerated noticeably, showing that active sell orders started taking control of the pace.

Current price is down to 0.01521, and the short position is up +1104.45%. The room for volatility has opened very directly. The moment panic shows up, the people who chased longs begin cutting losses, while shorts move along even more smoothly.

If you already have profit, don’t pretend you can’t see it. You can probably handle it in batches—80% first, and keep the remaining 20% protected at the safety levels. The biggest risk for profitable trades is turning from active to passive, especially after this kind of sharp sell-off—there could be a rebound at any time.

If you didn’t catch the move, don’t chase shorts at the low. And don’t get restless just because you see others making money. Don’t follow the trade—wait for a more comfortable position to act.
