This is a detailed reflection on my recent short trade on DOGEUSDT on a perpetual contract, conducted on the hourly timeframe with an isolated leverage of 10x. After a strong impulsive rise, DOGE reached the resistance level of 0.1329 – 0.1330, an area where the price had previously faced difficulties. At that moment, I reminded myself not to succumb to the emotional excitement of green candles and not to chase the market.
Before entering the trade, I spent time observing price behavior. Although the trend was bullish in the short term, the momentum near resistance began to weaken. Rejection candles and fluctuations around the moving averages indicated that buyers were losing strength. From experience, I know that many losses occur due to entering too late, so I waited for confirmation instead of acting impulsively.
Emotionally, this deal was not easy. I felt confident in my analysis, but at the same time, I fully understood that the market could always go against my expectations. I accepted the possibility of losses before entering the trade. This approach helped me stay calm because once you accept the risk, fear has less control over your decisions.
I opened a short position at 0.13212 with a total volume of 4,090 DOGE. I deliberately avoided using a higher leverage, even though the platform allows it. My focus was on capital preservation rather than profit maximization. In my previous trades, excessive leverage caused unnecessary stress and emotional mistakes, so this time I chose discipline over greed.
After logging in, I consciously avoided closely watching each candle. Too much scrutiny of the chart often leads to panic exits or revenge trading. I told myself that regardless of whether the trade ended in profit or loss, my job was already done as soon as the plan was executed correctly. This mental shift helped me remain patient and trust my strategy.
As the trade progressed, the price slowly but surely moved in my favor. There was no sharp decline, but the market respected the resistance zone. At the time of writing, the trade shows an unrealized profit of +3.55 USDT with an ROI of +6.50%. While this may seem like a small profit, emotionally it represents a significant improvement in my trading journey.
What I value most in this trade is not the profit, but the process. I followed my rules, controlled my emotions, respected risk, and avoided impulsive decisions. Even if this trade had ended in a loss, I would still consider it a good trade because the execution was correct.
This experience has reinforced several important lessons for me. Losses are an inevitable part of trading, and attempts to completely avoid them only lead to larger mistakes. Risk management is more important than the win rate. Small, consistent profits combined with controlled losses create long-term confidence and resilience.
My advice to other traders is simple but powerful: don’t rush into entries, don’t chase price, and don’t let emotions control your actions. Always define your risks before entering a trade, accept the outcome in advance, and focus on consistency rather than big profits. Trading is not about being right every time; it’s about surviving long enough to grow.
