Some drops aren’t dumped all at once—they grind people down until they lose patience first. $KGEN is like that. At the beginning it looks painfully sideways; a lot of the time you don’t know whether it’s truly weak already, or just holding back for the next counter-rally.

I went short around 0.20275, and now I’m watching it at 0.16791, up +822.3% on the position. The most critical part of this trade isn’t the single moment you enter—it’s that you weren’t repeatedly shaken out by choppy oscillations in the middle. If you’ve spent enough time in crypto, you know what’s most terrifying: when you suddenly get emotionally impulsive.

The chart has shown a few moves that look like they might be a recovery, but since the resistance overhead never held, I didn’t rush to flip. For short-term futures contracts, a lot of losses aren’t from being wrong on direction—they come from you constantly tinkering and flipping yourself back and forth.

Now that the short has been realized, I’m not going to think about squeezing every last bit out of it. Getting your own slice of profit is already far better than chasing and slashing wildly.
