The market is always the best teacher. This time, the account green light made me reevaluate my trading logic.
Yesterday, I publicly shifted to a bearish stance, thinking I had caught the rhythm, but the market delivered a heavy blow. The account indeed turned green, and that feeling was like being repeatedly crushed by the行情. Although I had the opportunity to cut losses early, I only closed half of my position and continued to hold the rest—this move, frankly, was driven by greed, and I was finally harshly taught a lesson by the relentless upward trend.
Why do I still choose to openly share my bearish view? Honestly, I could follow the common practice in the circle: either stay silent and pretend to be an expert, or set my short positions so far out of reach that I never have to actually execute them—if I can't reach it, just act as if I never mentioned it. But I believe that since I’ve spoken, I should be true to that sincerity—even if it means getting proven wrong in the end.
**Core judgment: This move is a rebound, not a reversal.**
For those asking me "When will the long-term shorting opportunity arrive," the answer is already in front of you.
From a technical perspective, BTC has already touched a key resistance zone. Combining previous highs and volume analysis, the $96,000 level shows strong resistance. Yesterday’s rally and subsequent pullback confirmed this again—this morning, Bitcoin broke above the $97,900 high but quickly retreated to around $95,391, oscillating repeatedly within this pressure zone.
**My trading approach is:** After breaking through $96,000, adopt a ladder-style shorting strategy, adding a layer of position every 100 points increase. This way, I can follow the trend while controlling individual trade risk. The key is to wait for a clear breakout signal and not be shaken by intraday volatility.
Market fluctuations are inevitable; what we can change is our response. Keep trading with humility and continue learning in the market.

Greed is really the poison in trading. Even after halving the stop-loss, you still get hit. This is the market's gentle reminder.

Greed is a trap; you have to jump over it every time to remember the pain.
