This time, $RESOLV , I didn’t handle it very well at first. After going long around 0.01885, the first pullback made me doubt myself. Back then, the market wasn’t moving in a “straight up and off it goes” kind of pattern—holding the position felt kind of awkward.

In the past, when I ran into something like this, I’d most likely either cut too quickly or open a reversal trade in a mess. Now I’m a bit better: I’ll first check whether it has really turned bad, instead of letting one or two wick candles drag me along. The worst part is when you suddenly get too emotionally worked up and mess up the rhythm that was still working decently.

Later, the price pushed to 0.01985, and the account showed +273.56% on paper. This trade is one I managed to grind out from that awkwardness. Not every profitable time is smooth—some money is won from places that feel uncomfortable.

My own takeaway is: admit it when you’re wrong, but don’t rewrite the script randomly before you’ve confirmed you’re wrong. In the short term, what’s worth the most is often not the judgment itself—it’s not getting scared and backing out of the trade.
