After that morning pullback, the feel of the chart completely changed. $FIL It’s not that it hadn’t been pushed up before—there were several attempts, but it couldn’t hold. Every time price came under overhead pressure, it just pulled back. The buy side looked lively, but the follow-through was actually weak. A lot of people were still hung up on whether to chase longs; what I cared about more at the time was: could this level still hold?

The real change happened at the moment the follow-through broke. FIL gave shorts a window around 0.9335, and I didn’t hesitate—I followed through as planned. Basically, the rhythm changed. After it couldn’t be forced higher, the downside space became clearer instead.

Right now it’s hit 0.7675. This short trade is up +856.37%. Volatility has opened up, and the profit-taking has been relatively clean. Now is not the time to keep getting carried away. If you have positions, remember to move your protection level downward. Guard the profits first—more important than chasing fantasies.

If you didn’t get in, don’t chase the lower levels and sell off, and don’t chase the order. Wait for a more comfortable spot before moving.
