Just now, this sell-off is most interesting not because of the size of the drop, but because it completely exposed that earlier fake strength. $SHIB churned at the top for a long time—many people thought that going sideways meant it was going to keep charging higher, but what I was watching was the speed of the pullback after the spike; clearly, someone was distributing up there.

When SHIB during the day approached 0.000005663, I didn’t rush to chase momentum. Instead, I waited for the rebound to fail. The key is this: in a truly weak market, it doesn’t necessarily dump all at once. It gets pushed back down every time it tries to rally, and the longer it goes on, the patience of the bulls gets drained first.

Now the price is at 0.000004162, +1880.7%, and the move has already played out—the trend extension is obvious. This result isn’t surprising. Since the earlier suppression couldn’t take it down, it’s naturally easier for the shorts to take over afterward.

If you’re in a position, be careful not to give back your floating profit. Handle it in an 80/20 staged approach, and the rest depends on whether the protective level can be held. If you haven’t entered, don’t chase shorts, and don’t chase orders—wait for the next time a more certain opportunity presents itself.
