This short position finally paid off. The pressure at the high point of $XNO wasn’t a coincidence—it was an unmistakable weakening signal shown by the chart.



Back then, I wasn’t watching just a single bearish candle. After $XNO bounced to around 0.4404, it couldn’t break higher continuously; the more buyers chased, the thinner the order book became. What really made me pay attention was that the pullback speed started to accelerate. A lot of people were still fantasizing about another push up, but things were already off here—the structure had clearly changed.

Now the price is at 0.32. This short trade’s profit is already at +271.15%, and the market’s upside room has been released pretty decisively. For my open position, I’ll handle it with an 80/20 approach: take profit on most of it first, and keep a smaller remaining portion with a protective level to see whether it can extend further.

Trades like this are about timing and rhythm—not stubbornly holding on. If you didn’t get on board, don’t rush. Don’t chase orders, and don’t chase shorts either. Wait for the next more comfortable level.
