This short order was realized very directly—after $GUA held up under pressure at a high level for a while, it finally came down. Entry was at 1.31292; the current price is 0.05766, +948.22%—it’s all right there. Not messing around earlier and holding steady was the right move.

The most obvious change on the order book was that the rebound strength kept getting weaker. On the surface, price was still propping sideways, but in reality the buy side no longer wanted to push higher. A lot of people only watch whether the price hasn’t broken down, but I care more about how fast it falls back after every push to a higher level. The key is right here. Once the structure changes, imagining that it can be strongly pulled up again will easily put you into a passive position.

This trade followed the plan to go long—now the profit has already been released. Handle it in an 80/20 split: take 80% off first, and keep the remaining 20% to see whether there’s further extension. The protection level must be kept up. The biggest fear for a profitable trade is turning from active to passive, especially the retracement after a sharp sell-off like this—it easily disrupts your judgment.

Now don’t get carried away just because you see gains, and don’t miss the move and then rush to chase. The short side taking this chunk is enough. If you didn’t catch it, don’t chase—wait for the next more comfortable position.
