This empty-position finally cashed out. The hard-stubborn highs during the intraday session finally gave the answer today.

After I went short $ETH from 2185.21, I wasn’t watching for just a single bearish candle—I was focused on the pullback from above that kept failing to hold. Many people at the time were still hoping for more upside, but what really caught my attention was that every time price pushed higher, it got knocked back; the structure clearly changed.

Now price has moved to 1879.82, and the unrealized position profit is +2428.9%. This isn’t luck—it’s the release of space after sustained pressure at the highs. Put simply, the more hesitant the bulls were, the more decisive the selloff becomes afterward.

On my side, I’ll protect the profits first. I’ll lean toward an 80/20 split for staggered handling. The remaining position will have protection in place as well, so we can keep looking for further extension without letting gains come back and get given up.

If you didn’t get on board, don’t rush. After a drop, the biggest fear is chasing with emotion. Don’t chase the order and don’t chase the lows—wait for the next more comfortable spot to move.
