This month, my most memorable trade came from following a news-driven setup on a low-cap altcoin. The project announced a strategic partnership with a top blockchain infrastructure provider. Instead of entering during the initial pump, I waited for the market to cool down. I watched for a flag pattern to form on the 15-minute chart — a sign that the price was consolidating before the next move.When it broke out with volume confirmation, I entered and managed risk carefully. The price surged again, and I took profits in phases. What I learned is that news creates opportunity, but only if you stay calm and trade with a plan. Reacting emotionally to news can lead to losses, but reacting strategically can give you an edge. I’ve made it a rule now: no FOMO entries on news. Always wait for the technical structure to form. Let others rush in — I’ll wait and strike when the timing is right.
