This short position finally played out. The feedback from the chart was very direct: high-level pressure isn’t just something people say—it really pulls people down.



At the time, what I was watching was the repeated failed attempts to spike around 29,885.23. Every time price went up, it got pushed back down. People chasing longs were still waiting for a breakout, but things here were already off. After I entered my short at 29,885.23, I didn’t rush to obsess over short-term noise; the real key was the continuation after breaking down through a minor key level.

Now price is at 29,710.97, and the return is already at +54.2%. This stretch of market movement has released its room pretty decisively. For brothers with larger positions, you can handle it in batches with an 80/20 split: take some profit first, and then keep the rest with a protective level while continuing to watch. Don’t let gains get fully given back due to a single counter-trend bounce.

To put it plainly: this kind of trade makes money on timing, not fantasies. Once high-level pressure is confirmed, if the shorts manage to push out a continuation, don’t get rattled by an intraday bounce. If you missed it, don’t rush—don’t chase unit shorts. Wait for the next time at a more comfortable level to act.
