This wave was clearly wash first, then kill. The fake breakout that $INJ showed near the top looked like a surge—many people thought it would break out, but it was immediately pressed back down.

What I’m watching is the reaction around 5.542. After the price went up, there was no volume to carry it; instead it quickly fell back. That suggests the sell pressure resting above isn’t just a mirage. Panic usually doesn’t appear right away—it tends to concentrate and erupt only after the key rhythm breaks down. The key is right here.

The current price is already 5.048, and the short position shows a return of +441.43% with a clear extension in the move. If you can realize profits from this level, the core isn’t chasing bearish candles—it's that you already noticed this area beforehand and waited for it to confirm weakness before executing. Many people move late because they only look at up/down, not at changes in order-flow/holding.

If you have positions now, you can consider handling them in batches with an 80/20 approach: lock in most of the main profit first, and use the remaining smaller lot to hold with a protective level. If it keeps running, then hold your stance; if it can’t, don’t give back the profits you already have.

Don’t chase if you missed it. Don’t chase during the rebound; wait for the next opportunity.
