Didn’t do anything—just went to the restroom. When I came back, the K-line had already done the work for me. After I finished lunch and checked the chart, $APT had already pulled back from the highs, and the speed was even more decisive than I’d expected.

Back when it was whipsawing repeatedly in the session, I noticed that every time it bounced, it was really hard work. The buy-side didn’t keep following through, and the volume couldn’t match either—once it pushed up near a key level, it weakened again. That detail made me judge that what looked like sideways action was more like a fantasy left for the bulls; the real follow-through just wasn’t there. When I saw APT fail to break through again around 0.9197, I executed a long position on the spot. I didn’t chase the red candles—I just waited for it to show its fatigue on its own.

At this moment, the price is at 0.5904. The post-trade review is already in: +2537.48%. First, sell off 80% to lock in the results, and keep the remaining 80% holding; move the protection level back to around the cost line. If there’s another drop, let the profits extend naturally; if it suddenly rebounds, I won’t turn the gains into a situation at a key level.

Panic is because there’s no plan. Loss is because you think too much.

Chasing orders can easily get you hung up at the mountaintop. Right now isn’t suitable for emotionally topping up short positions with more empty positions. Wait for the next shot—after a new structure is confirmed. The market isn’t short of opportunities; what it lacks is patience.
