TAO: A directional setup still needs enough reward after estimated costs.
🔴 SHORT
$TAO /USDT · CRYPTO FUTURES
Status: Zone reached; confirmation pending.

The trade-off
Main risk: TP1 offers 0.26R after assumed fees/slippage at the worst zone edge; first-target reward is limited (funding excluded).
Watch also: Confirmed 1h support at 221.77 can interrupt progress toward later targets.

Why it remains on watch
The 4h EMA structure favors SHORT, but TP1 leaves limited reward after the stated cost assumptions.
• 4h bearish EMA50/200 stack; 1h bearish.
• 1h RSI 49.9: neutral.
• 15m DI+ 21.0 / DI− 25.4: leans SHORT; ADX 26.0 measures strength.

The levels
Entry: 222.76 – 223.11
TP1: 221.95 (-0.4% | 0.71R) [1h swing]
TP2: 221.19 (-0.8% | 1.25R) [projection]
TP3: 221.13 (-0.8% | 1.29R) [1h swing]
SL: 224.34 (+0.6%) [1h swing + ATR floor]
Percentages/R: zone midpoint, before costs. Projections are not observed S/R.
TP1 net est. 0.26R at worst zone edge; fees 5 + slippage 2 bps/side. Funding excluded.

Entry review: Zone reached; review a closed 15m candle; no confirmed entry.
Invalid: SL 224.34, 4h loses SHORT, or 1h turns LONG.
If triggered: exit 50/25/25% at TP1/2/3; stop to entry after TP1 (before costs).
