This wave wasn’t based on guessing—the order book itself exposed the weak points. When the price dipped during the session, $HBAR finally broke below the original sideways rhythm. Those rebounds that previously looked strong couldn’t continue once they reached the key level.

Before the market had fully started, I noticed that on HBAR the sell orders above kept getting thicker. The rally lacked a bit of energy to support it—when the price went up, no one stepped in, but the pullback was very decisive. Seeing this, my judgment was to first guard against the shorts and not chase fake strength.

Back then, I entered a long around 0.08855. Now the price is at 0.07056, and the ROI for the short position is recorded at +1441.54%. This time I didn’t chase randomly, and I wasn’t knocked off by short-term market chop—I managed to keep the tempo.

When it’s time to take profit, take it. Close 80% first, and keep the remaining 20% for trend-extension positions, with the protection level moved up to around the cost. If the market continues moving down, let the profits run on their own; if there’s a rebound, you should also prioritize protecting the gains you already locked in.

Don’t increase your position size when you’re carried away by emotion. Risk control done in advance is what you call rational; cutting after losses is passive. For friends who haven’t joined yet, wait patiently—before the next shot shows up, it’s better to observe than to rush in.
