After I opened this short position, the market didn’t give an answer right away. The price kept grinding back and forth around 1.0030, and after a few rebounds, it almost wiped out all my patience. To be honest, during that period, watching other people chase the market while I stuck to my bearish judgment made me a little uneasy—so uneasy that I even started to wonder if I’d taken the wrong direction.

But every rebound’s volume and momentum were off. When the price pushed up, it was quickly slammed back down, which showed that real support above hadn’t actually formed. I wasn’t thrown off by this fake display of strength. Only when the price kept getting pressured down to 0.7 did I finally and fully verify the earlier waiting—+1454.82%.

If you stay in the crypto space long enough, you’ll know that many market moves don’t go your way from the start. What truly tests people is often this middle phase of grinding. Whether you can hold on doesn’t depend on how emotionally stable you are; it depends on whether you see the order book hasn’t broken the original logic—so don’t get scared off just because a few pumping candles make noise.
