The most worth revisiting this time is that I didn’t chase shorts after the sell-off started. When the price fell back from the highs, many people already started panicking to get in, but what I cared about was whether that bounce around 1.0030 could hold. In the end, the price barely pushed up before sell pressure slammed it back down—the short side’s rhythm was actually clearer.

There was a quick pump in the middle that really made my stomach tighten; I almost thought my judgment after missing the move was wrong. But the rally didn’t last, and follow-through wasn’t there. After that, it surged again and then rolled over—showing that the chasing-long sentiment only appeared briefly and didn’t truly change the market structure.

Now the price is at 0.711. Record this outcome as +1402.48%. This feedback makes me even more confident in the original idea: it’s not about going short just because it drops—rather, the problems at the high end have never been resolved.

Missing the first move isn’t scary. What’s scary is trying to regain the tempo by catching flying knives. Wait without confirmation, follow only with confirmation—stay a little less impulsive, and trading becomes much easier.
