Many people in front were still waiting for it to keep pumping, but I was drawn to that feeling at the high point that nobody was taking the bids. On the surface, the price still looked pretty strong; in reality, every time it surged higher, sell pressure was left behind. The more people chased in, the easier it became for them to get stuck in losses. This kind of seemingly bullish tape often tests your patience the most.

I didn’t get carried away and chase short after the first big bearish candle. Instead, I waited for a rebound and when it came back to around 0.2438, then only acted after confirming that the market could not sustain the support. The price action chopped back and forth a few times in the middle, nearly grinding my mindset down, but the shorts never truly reclaimed their ground. In the end, the price pulled back to 0.1606, and the result was +2424.36%.

This trade made me feel again: missing the best entry point isn’t scary. What’s scary is when your emotions rush you into catching a flying knife. A truly comfortable trade isn’t about nailing every move—it’s about waiting until the chart clearly tells you the direction, then following the rhythm.
