BTC has smashed through its 20 day high so I'm again entering into a Turtle trading short. For full details on the methodology I follow in this trade see the IOT/USD Short Turtle Trade in the related ideas below. I'm no longer linking all of my Turtle trades below but you can find them all by searching my trades for "Turtle". A summary of their performance is provided below.

As for this trade:
P1 triggered as shown on the chart. P2 & P3 unit order in place.
Position Size: 1N per position
Stop Loss as shown (this is equal to 2N of P1). Note: If P2 & P3 triggers then the SL will move and I will show this in an update to this trade.
Exit: 10 day low as shown. If the exit moves above the SL in subsequent days I will provide in an update to this trade.

This is not investment advice. Please always do your own research. If you are interested in this trade or the Turtle strategy in general then please follow me and my turtle trades.
