I recently took a short position on BTC during a period when the market was showing clear bearish divergence. The price was climbing, but RSI and MACD were telling a different story. Many traders were overly bullish, expecting another breakout, but I trusted my analysis. I waited for confirmation from a failed support retest, and then I entered my short. The price eventually dropped, validating my setup. While it wasn’t the biggest move of the month, it was a well-calculated one. It’s easy to follow hype, but learning to trust your technical analysis is what makes a trader consistent. This trade didn’t just bring profit—it boosted my belief in sticking to my system. Now I remind myself that the market doesn’t care about hopes or social media hype. It responds to data, trends, and momentum. That’s where my focus will always remain.
