Just as I was about to go to the forum and start cursing, I glanced at the chart—forget it. The market dad is always right. A few days ago in the early morning, the price suddenly spiked up. I kept watching the order flow, but the follow-through on support just couldn’t keep up. And at the same time, the sell pressure kept getting stronger. I figured this pull-up was more like a feint, so I flagged an opening short around 0.4076. Now the price is back to 0.3757, and my short position is up +555.31%—really satisfying.

This time, I won’t go head-to-head trying to squeeze out the last bite. First, I close 80% to lock in the battle gains. The remaining 20% stays at the protective level, placed near my entry cost. If it keeps dropping, I’ll just ride it and hold with the move. If it bounces back, I’ll still make sure the profit doesn’t get eaten up.

Risk management comes first—call it rational. Cutting losses after you’re wrong—call it “a heroic warrior’s last stand.” Have a plan before the trading session, keep discipline during the session, and only then do a review afterward.

If you missed this leg, don’t force a chase. This isn’t the time to surge—wait until the new structure is confirmed, then take another look. Only move when the next wave signal comes out.
