This single didn’t start smoothly. After the price fell from around 0.4506, not long after it was pulled back by a sharp needle candle. At that moment, I really felt a bit panicked—like the short position was about to get washed out, and many people should have felt something similar.

I didn’t immediately change direction, because what truly kept me focused wasn’t that rebound itself, but the fact that after the bounce, there still weren’t any new key levels. Selling pressure remained, while buy-side support became increasingly weak. The market looked lively, but in reality it was more like consuming the people chasing at high levels.

Later, the price was pushed down from 0.4506 to 0.303. The shorts started hitting again and again, and the final result came to +803.24%. Looking back at the grinding period I held through earlier, it was actually the part that tested patience the most.

In crypto trading, the easiest thing is to get emotional during needle moves—when it ticks up you want to chase, and when it drops you’re in a hurry to get out. This time I was able to stay, not because I’m smarter than others, but because I didn’t let short-term volatility carry away my original judgment.
