To be honest, after this round of feedback came in, it still feels pretty good in my heart. During the intraday bottoming phase, it may seem like it keeps repeating, but in reality, the key levels above $XRP are getting heavier and heavier. Each time there were a couple of pushes higher, there was no follow-through, so the shorts naturally had more room to play.

My entry is around 1.1134, and I executed a long. The market didn’t unfold in the most aggressive way, but the price gradually pulled back to 1.072—+345.65% has already played out on this call.

Trades like this don’t need you to take part in every single fluctuation. The key is to see whether the rhythm has changed. After you become profitable, protecting gains in time and controlling drawdowns is more important than continuing to fantasize.

When the opportunity comes, execution matters more than hesitation. If you missed it, don’t worry—staying patient is more valuable than forcing a chase.
