This short position finally paid off. The market shifted from hesitation to acceleration, and the change was very direct. Before $OPG tested the high again and again, it couldn’t break through; what I was watching wasn’t a single bearish candle, but the fact that after each rally, the follow-through kept getting weaker.

Back then, around 0.2047, the opportunity came. My take was that high-level pressure had already been established. People chasing longs were still waiting for a breakout. What really caught my attention was that the rebound volume couldn’t keep up, while the price started to press downward instead. Now at 0.1139, the profit on this short is already +870.51%, and the room for movement has been released pretty cleanly.

The most critical thing here isn’t how much you make, but whether you held the rhythm. A lot of people see a drop and want to chase, and when there’s a rebound they get afraid of getting blown out—basically, they’re being led by the order book. If you have a position, you can consider taking care of most of it first, and keep a smaller portion with a protection level to continue watching for further extension—don’t let your profit get eaten back by the rebound.

If you didn’t get on the train, don’t rush. Don’t chase during the rebound—wait for the next, more comfortable entry.
