$XRP saw another sharp drop—finally, the short position got the feedback it needed. The entry price was 1.1661; now the market is at 1.1501. Current profit: +126.75%. This leg of the decline was still fairly complete in how it played out. To be blunt, it wasn’t like nobody gave warning signals earlier. Every time price bounced back, it looked feeble—like it was trying to repair, but the moment it hit a key level, it softened. On the long side, they clearly started to lose support. Most people at the time thought it was just a shakeout. But looking at it in real time, the rhythm had already changed: the consolidation was not strong, the rebounds were not steady, and once the level below was broken, it was easy to accelerate. So I didn’t rush to exit this trade.

Now I’m handling it according to the short position rules: take profit on 80% first, keep 80% continuing to hold, and have the protection level move down accordingly as the price action goes. Once the profits are realized, the mindset should actually get colder. Don’t rush in just because you see the drop—at times like this, you’re even more likely to get swept out by a rebound. If you didn’t get on the train, just wait for the next rebound. $BTC $ETH
