This time, I didn’t rush to chase after the drop in the first leg just because I missed it. Instead, after the price bounced back to around 0.05794, I observed again. The earlier dump was fast, and many people may have already started panicking. I know that taking on a “flying knife” at a time like this isn’t comfortable, so I waited for the emotions to cool down and see whether the pullback would actually have support.

As it turned out, the rebound was only a brief pause for breath. The price couldn’t break higher, and the selling pressure soon pushed it back down again. I was still a bit hesitant at the time—after all, I entered the short position late. Even a slight rise can trigger panic—but the market didn’t provide a real signal of strength. The price then moved from 0.05794 on to 0.0428, and only after that was I able to get my timing right.

In the end, the trade left me with +513.14%. What’s most worth reviewing here isn’t the result, but the fact that I didn’t go into a frenzy and chase just because I missed out. There have always been opportunities in crypto. Missing one move doesn’t mean you have to buy back immediately. When the rebound loses steam and the shorts regain control, that’s when to act—and your mindset is actually steadier then.
