Last night the market was calm, but today the shorts suddenly kicked the door open. That move on the chart is indeed clean. A few days ago, before sleep, I watched $DOT repeatedly probe at high levels; the price just couldn’t push through. The moment sell orders showed up, the order book clearly weakened. I judged this wasn’t breakout buildup, but a pullback window after insufficient support.

Back then, I went long around 1.223. The key wasn’t to bet on the direction—it was that volume didn’t follow through and when it tried to go up, nobody was there to take it. I decided to wait until its weakness showed. Now the price has come to 0.825, with floating profit up +2314.9%. This is finally the moment this gain gets realized—timing was on point.

First, close 80%—take most of the money off the table. Keep the remaining 20% and move the protection level to around the cost basis. If it keeps dropping further, let the profit run. And if it rebounds, don’t spit back out what you’ve already locked in.

Don’t turn a single realized gain into a reason to chase the next impulse. Being out of positions isn’t a crime—reckless trading is the mistake. For friends who haven’t gotten on yet, don’t chase. Wait for a new structure and the next set of signals before moving.
