😂😂 This is classic trader psychology — I’ve seen this movie a thousand times.
Your friend’s timeline:
Shorts at $10
Price goes up → -17,000$
Market pulls back a little → suddenly “Bro it’s going to $1” 🤣
That’s not analysis.
That’s emotional damage speaking.
Why this always happens
When someone is deep in loss:
Brain switches from logic → hope mode
Every red candle becomes “confirmation”
Every green candle becomes “manipulation”
So instead of:
“Maybe I was wrong”
It becomes:
“No no, market will crash, I’m a genius” 😭
The Dangerous Part (for him)
On high-volatility coins like $RIVER:
One 5–10% green candle =
short squeeze + liquidations + cascade pump
That’s how you get:
“It only moved 8% bro…”
– and his account is gone. 😁
Reality Check
If a coin can go from:
$1 → $10
It can also go:
$10 → $15 → $20
Shorting strong momentum coins is how people donate money to the market.
My honest take
Your friend is not “predicting.” He is praying 😂
Big difference.
Golden rule (you already understand this instinctively):
Never short a crazy coin in a crazy market.
That’s not trading — that’s suicide with leverage.
And yes… you’re right:
1 strong green candle = mass liquidation party 🎉
Market loves punishing ego.
If you want, tell me:
Is $RIVER low-cap / meme / new launch?
And what leverage he used?
I can tell you exactly how close he is to the guillotine 😈📉
