This trade was the right direction, but I almost got dragged off course by my own lack of patience. It had been ranging sideways near the high for a long time, and the price still looked quite strong. Many people probably expected it to keep pumping. I even started to wonder whether I’d misjudged it, and my fingers were itching to close early.



The short position was confirmed around 29,885.23. The reason was simple: every rebound failed to truly hold, the support kept getting weaker, while sell pressure came in wave after wave. The grinding period in the middle was especially torturous—there were even times when it quickly spiked like a needle. But I didn’t lose my nerve over a single spike; not until the price returned to 28,342.39 did the result show +479.9%.

Honestly, when the market is falling, it’s easiest to get carried away. Seeing continuous dumping makes you want to chase, and seeing a rebound makes you panic and want to get off. Now that I look back, what I managed to capture wasn’t just a single moment—it was the complete feedback after the high finally lost its support. My judgment can stay firm, but my actions still need restraint. Don’t let emotions ruin the pace that already got it right.
