When the market suddenly rallies, it’s easiest to get carried away, but this time I didn’t chase. Instead, I waited for it to come back to around 3.050 and then observed. The earlier segment of volatility was really tormenting—prices would pump up, then suddenly spike down. Just when I started to build some confidence, the next second I’d start doubting my judgment again.

What truly made me dare to hold, though, was that during the pullback the selling pressure didn’t keep expanding. At the low end, there were buyers, and the price also didn’t drop back into the original weak range. This detail is more important than the bullish candle on the surface. Only when it later broke upward again did I finally feel truly settled.

Now the price is at 3.904. The outcome on this long position shows +1983.5%. From initial hesitation—almost getting shaken out in the middle—to finally capturing this run, the fluctuations in my emotions are more worth revisiting than the result itself.

Honestly, after making money, what I fear most isn’t a retracement—it’s suddenly thinking you’re unstoppable. The market has given me feedback. I’ll keep respecting the rhythm, but I won’t, just because this one worked out, start blindly chasing more trades. Staying clear-headed is what really means holding onto this experience.
