Honestly, this kind of market is the ultimate test of human nature. When $XPL hadn’t moved, people said it was weak; the moment it bounced up to 0.09339, they started fearing missing out. My longs here were picked up from 0.08697, and currently they’re up +524.15%. Once the room for volatility opens up, the earlier waiting actually makes sense.

At the start, the price action was very choppy, and a lot of people lost patience getting repeatedly shaken out—some even felt it would collapse after a single small bearish candle. But things are already clearly different here: every time it gets hammered down, someone steps in to buy, and the speed of the rebounds is only getting faster. The key is this—places where people are most tempted to give up may be where the main players change tempo.

Now that the gains are in, there’s no need to pretend to be calm, but you also can’t get carried away. For those with larger positions, you can take profits in batches with a 70/30 split—first regain control, and then keep the rest with protection to watch for continuation. Profit has already been released; the most important thing is not to get washed back out by the next wave of volatility. Trading needs both offense and defense.

I won’t blindly chase longs from this spot. If you didn’t catch it, wait for the next opportunity—enter when it’s at a more comfortable level.
