$API3 just exploded, fam — and this wasn’t random.
That was a liquidity grab + short squeeze.
Price was compressing, sellers got comfortable, stops stacked above 0.47–0.48.
Once that zone snapped, algos kicked in → instant vertical candle, stops wiped, late longs trapped on the wick.
Notice the long upper wick?
That’s rejection. Smart money sold into the spike.
Now it’s simple:
Hold above 0.48 → continuation possible
Lose 0.48 / 0.47 → this was just a squeeze, not a trend shift
This is how markets punish impatience.
Wait for structure. Let the dust settle.
Stay sharp.
