This short (sell) position can actually take a bite of meat. The key isn’t chasing after seeing the dump, but the fact that when the price was rising high and then pulling back earlier, I noticed the buy/sell support above just couldn’t keep up. The price kept ranging around 2111.63 for a long time. The chart didn’t look too bad, but every time it tried to push higher, someone was selling into it. That “feel” was already off.



What’s hardest to deal with is that middle stretch of a fake breakout—it nearly washed out the judgment I had in hand. Later, when the price broke below a key level, the shorts’ tempo clearly accelerated, moving from 2111.63 to 1881.32. The result of this post-trade review is already at +1895.75%. All that waiting finally paid off.

Honestly, in crypto markets, many setups don’t give you the answer right at the start—they first grind you down until you start doubting yourself. I’m glad I didn’t get panicky and jump ship because of a short-term rebound. Having the trade idea verified by the market matters far more than any momentary volatility.
