This sell-off seems to have provided the answer. After BTC held high levels and moved sideways for so long, on the surface it looked like it was building momentum, but in reality it kept getting weaker. A lot of people were thrown off by the earlier rally and thought it could keep charging higher. Back then, I was instead more concerned whether there was real buying demand above that could actually hold it up.

When the price hovered around 75,691.9, what really caught my attention was that the rebound strength was weakening each time, while the pullback had become smoother. This is no longer right. After taking the short, it comes down to whether it can break through the key levels.

Now the price is pressing down to 64,837.9, with unrealized profit at +2,493.29%. This leg of the bearish move has been released very decisively. The profits are already in—don’t turn a good trade into an emotional one. For those with larger positions, you can take profit in batches with an 80/20 split; keep the remaining small position with a protective level in place and continue to monitor.

Put simply, the easiest mistake during a sell-off is to chase shorts too late. If you’ve already missed it, don’t force it. Don’t chase—wait for a more comfortable entry point and then move.
