The most interesting part this time isn’t how much it dropped, but that most people misread the tempo. $FIL That high-level stretch looked strong at first; in reality, it was just a push that quickly went soft, then when it tried to rise it got pressed back down—like it was steadily sweeping away the patience of those chasing longs. The more lively the chart looks, the more I feel like we shouldn’t follow our emotions into it.

Back then I was watching FIL. The real key was the false breakout around 0.9335—price didn’t hold above it, and volume didn’t confirm either. Once it pulls back from a spot like that, it’s easy to trigger a chain of sell pressure. After that, it went straight to 0.7489, and my short position was up by +952.32%, with the room for volatility opening up very clearly.

Now I won’t start fantasizing about eating it all in one go after I’m in profit. I’ll take the main positions off in batches first, and keep a little remaining with a protection level to see whether there’s momentum for further downside. Put bluntly, the worst thing about trading is to get the win and still get greedy. If you didn’t catch it, don’t rush to add a short, and don’t chase entries either—there are opportunities every day. Wait for a more comfortable setup.
