This short position trade at the start wasn’t easy at all. After opening, the price didn’t immediately drop; instead, it kept tugging back and forth in the high range. Honestly, it was pretty draining—constantly my mind would wonder whether I’d misread it—but the core I was watching hadn’t changed: there’s a price at the high end, but there’s no continuous follow-through.



After confirming the direction around 0.0197, the chart first poked with a wick, then surged higher and rolled back. A lot of people probably got shaken out right here. When the rebound strength kept weakening, the shorts started hammering the market in a row, and only then did the行情 finally give the real answer. When the price reached 0.0168, this trade ultimately ended up at +279.85%. Going from doubt to certainty, the emotional shift was especially obvious.

In the past, I often couldn’t hold on just from a few counter-rallies, only to find that the moment I got out, the market started moving. Now I understand better: being right on the judgment doesn’t mean the process is comfortable—especially for short positions under pressure in the high range, the real test is whether you can avoid being carried away by the noise. This time I didn’t chase the drop, and I wasn’t scared off by the rebound either. Keeping the rhythm matters more than the adrenaline of a short-term move.
