$AAVE that I was watching finally delivered an answer. When it was grinding at the low, nobody wanted to watch; once it broke out, everyone started asking whether it was still possible to chase. On my side, my long position moved from 91.15 to 98.05, and the +537.51% is already reflected in the paper gains—its price action extension is clear.

Replaying this move is actually simple: first, the downside couldn’t be driven further; then every rebound could be bought back and reclaimed; and finally it pushed through the key levels on increased volume. Many people misjudged because they only watched for short-term pullbacks, overlooking that the support on the way up was getting stronger. What really caught my attention was those few “fake breakdowns”—the price looked like it was about to fail, but it pulled back quickly. This kind of tape can’t be treated as weak anymore.

Now that it’s profitable, the operation actually needs to be even more clear-headed. For those who are in positions, you can manage it with a 70/30 split: first realize part of the gains, and use the remaining position with a protective stop to follow. Don’t let a good trade turn into an emotion-driven one. The long-side rhythm for this AAVE move is still there, but the higher it goes, the more you need to hold back your hand.

If you didn’t participate, don’t chase. The market has fluctuations every day—wait for the next opportunity, and trade again at a more comfortable level.
