After this $BTC long position started moving after breaking out, I actually didn’t think about trying to guess the top. If you’ve been in crypto for long enough, you know the easiest way to lose money isn’t choosing the wrong direction—it’s when the market is clearly moving up, and you still insist on fighting with it.
This time, what I focused on was the range around the opening price, 59,591.4, that kept bouncing back and forth. At first it was painful too—pushed up and then pulled back again. A lot of people at this point feel like they should get off. Later, it was gradually pushed from there to the current price of 63,745.3, and the unrealized profit reached +1212.57%, only then did I get my patience back from earlier.
To put it bluntly, this kind of trade isn’t held comfortably all the way. There were several times in between when I wanted to run first. As long as the direction doesn’t go bad, what I care more about is not getting scared out by small pullbacks.
Now that there’s profit, I won’t get carried away and chase to add. I also won’t copy that rigid 70/30 split. I’ll take some when I should, and let the market do the rest. Respecting the direction is more reliable than trying to guess the top.
