I only meant to open the order book and take a quick look, but that one glance completely wiped out my drowsiness. While everyone was still watching from the sidelines, $SHIB was already showing signs of fatigue near the highs: the rally was slowing down more and more, the rebounds getting shorter, and the moment the price nears the upper area, sell pressure comes pressing down.

Before the board fully kicked off, I opened a long around 0.000005663. My thinking was very clear at the time: a low-volume push can’t sustain continuation—if there isn’t enough follow-through, don’t force the chase; wait until it truly turns weaker, then follow. Now 0.000004642 has already delivered the result, with a return of +1281.78%—this short trade closed cleanly and decisively.

Handle the big part first: close 80%; move the remaining 20%’s protection level to around the cost basis. If it keeps moving lower, let the profits keep running; if it suddenly bounces back, also hold on to the gains you’ve already taken.

Don’t grind away your patience in a range while you’re trying to “win back dignity” in a one-way move. Compounding only works if you’re still alive—the cost of impulsiveness is often heavy. If you miss the spot, don’t chase; wait for the next round of more comfortable signals.
