This time, I wasn’t fooled by the superficial strength. While the price kept rising earlier, and many people were discussing whether it was still possible to chase, I was watching the speed of the pullback after the peak. The higher it went, the harder the bids looked to sustain. Instead, short opportunities gradually became clearer.

After confirming that the high was under pressure around 29885.23, I stepped aside from going long. Then I didn’t panic and get off after just one or two rebounds. There was a quick needle-like spike in the middle that really made people’s hands itchy, and I even briefly wondered whether my judgment was wrong, but the price still never reclaimed and held the strong zone.

Later, when it fell to 27844.27, the sell-off pressure noticeably accelerated. Those who went long effectively caught this short-side market, and the result came to +638.18%. The most important feedback this time is that after a fake breakout, people who didn’t chase orders in the first place actually gave shorts a more comfortable space.

Many times, the market won’t reward patience right away—it may even shake people out with range-bound movement first. But as long as the original judgment isn’t overturned by the order flow, there’s no need to be led around by a few rebound candlesticks.
