This short position can be taken, and the key is not to chase just because you see the market falling, but that after the earlier rally to higher levels, the order book never showed any decent rebound/support. I started paying attention around 0.02762. That level looked lively, but the sell pressure had already been slowly building up.

When I first got in, the price action kept chopping for a while, and there were even a few fake moves—I’ll admit I was a bit nervous. A lot of people probably feel the same way: the direction is right, but what you fear most is being shaken out early by a needle-like wick.

Later, when the price broke below a key level, the sell-off pressure noticeably accelerated, and the shorts’ timing was finally confirmed. By the time it reached around 0.01386, this trade corresponded to +1222.53%, and the waiting before it paid off.

If you’ve been in crypto long enough, you know the real difficulty isn’t just calling the downside—it’s whether you dare to patiently wait for confirmation when the market is under pressure at high levels. This time, I didn’t get impulsive chasing a short, and I wasn’t scared off by the grind down. Timing matters more than emotion.
