BTC - Potential 20% Stop Hunt: Intraday Short

Bitcoin / U.S. dollarBitstamp

Description

Final 20% drop scenario in play

I'm now bullish and spot loaded after 8 months of shorting, targeting 18k.

My last short from 32k targeted 18k level with the aim of setting a leveraged long.
- Spot ALTs are in place
- The leveraged long is not in place as yet
- The leveraged long target laddering across $16 to 17k - the following structure needs to complete or is invalidated by a climb above 25K before any leverage.
- The risk for longs here is a 20% drop under recent $17,500 low

Final Local Bottoming process:
1. Price fails to break resistance @ $21,700. This process takes a few days, whales buying. ALTs begin to lose value. Calls for 13K return.
2. Price crashes & forms a new low. 24 hours at final low of 17k. Late entries to the rally in the last few days panic sell. Leveraged longs are stopped out + traders short the break of previous low creating liquidity for Whale longs.
3. Price rallies sharply above 25K on its way to 40k.

We hit my original 18k target inline with market structure so price could happily continue thus will not short. However, this is such a nice trap nd we haven't seen massive volume spikes as yet so I give this scenario 60% likelihood of materialising thus I am taking profits on some Spot to prep for lower entries

Best, Hard Forky

Final Short at 32k


Spot Long at $17,900

@BITZEROCOLA2 if you controlled the market where do you think the liquidity is? There are buy orders stacked at 21,900. Just need equities to push up a percent at the open to sell into the buy orders, then reversal. Hypothetically

@BITZEROCOLA2, I'm unlikely to short. there is potential to continue up. opportunity is the long at the new low. better odds

@hardforky, Wasn't it expected to be 17k starting with the 21700 short??? Are you watching Long?
