$CTR After this cut, the entire market feel changed completely. “Heavy pressure at the highs” wasn’t just talk—price has already given the answer.



The core I looked at was very simple: around 0.02080, repeated upside attempts failed. The funds didn’t keep pushing higher; instead, every rebound got pressed down. Many people were still waiting for a breakout—the key is right here. The more it looks like it’s about to surge, the more likely it becomes the distribution zone after a bull trap.

From 0.02080 to now 0.00814, this short has returned +1197.48%. The room for the move has been released very clearly. A truly good short isn’t about chasing and smashing into a red candle—it’s about waiting for confirmation at key levels and then letting the market loosen itself to the downside.

My current approach is more calm and measured: I’ll take profits in batches using an 80/20 split. Most of the gains will be protected first, and the remaining position will be based on whether it can continue extending along the trend. Don’t set the protection level too loosely. Once profit comes out, switch from offense to defense.

If you didn’t get in, don’t chase shorts—wait for the next spot where the certainty is stronger.
