Hello friends, I haven't been around for a long time, some projects take a lot of time, but the current $BTC has caught my interest, my forecast, there was no normal rebound impulse, now I expect a drop to 80k, it will be there, and then there will be a very strong rise, 100k+ will definitely happen
The adventure with $BTC didn't work out, moved SL to break even and closed the order, well, nothing, had fun and it's good, wanted to test a small theory and checked.
Shorted at $BTC 🐻📉 The idea is simple: the market makes sharp "jumps", but I don't see a stable reversal yet — so I'm playing from local resistance.
Plan: if the impulse goes down — I'll secure part of the profit and pull the stop accordingly (to not give back profit on the pullback). If the price breaks the key level and holds above — the short idea will break, no heroics 🙃
PS. Sorry, I just can't decide which language to write in 🙃
Yesterday was a bit stressful 😅 Closed my $SOL trade — this time the market took it. That’s part of the game. The key is staying calm and keeping risk under control 🎯
Key notes:
✅ a stop-loss protects the account, even when it feels “annoying”
✅ in wick-heavy moves, it’s smarter to reduce size and wait for confirmation
✅ review, learn, move on — sticking to the plan 💪
The market gives and takes — discipline keeps us in the game 🚀
Two out of three positions got wicked out today 😅 On the one hand, a higher stop-loss protected the account — risk stayed under control. On the other hand, that same wick didn’t let the trade reach its full potential 🤷♂️
I was trading $SOL , $XRP and $ETH : one position followed the plan perfectly, while two reminded me that even a solid setup can be ruined by one aggressive spike. Still sticking to the plan, tweaking stop-loss width and targets — the key is to survive for the next trade, and this market always brings new opportunities 😉
Oh God.. I accidentally clicked the wrong thing while half-asleep and closed the order😁

After today’s BTC dump I decided not to catch the knife on Bitcoin, but to spread the risk across some alts instead 🚀
Opened longs on:
$SOL – pure volatility play, looking for a local bounce;
$XRP – classic news-driven mover;
$ZEC – quiet most of the time, but can explode when it wants 😏
Leverage is under control, stop-losses are set below key levels, and the plan is simple: catch the wave, take partial profits and then trail the rest 📉➡️📈
Not financial advice – just sharing my own setup and risk management: entry plan, SL, partial take-profit and then let the market do its thing 🧠

I’ve just entered a long position on $ETH after a sharp dump 📉. I fully understand the risk here: the price can still go lower – and the long lower wicks show strong selling pressure and high volatility ⚠️.
I accept this risk and I’m ready to add more if the market gives me a better entry lower 💰. But the current level is already acceptable for me: after a prolonged move down we finally see lower wicks and the first signs of buyers stepping in 🟢.
This is not financial advice, just my own plan: scaling in with small portions, ready to average lower, keeping a strict stop and position size under control 🎯.
Trailing stop did its job again 😅 My $ETH long got neatly taken out by the trailing stop while the market was shaking around the news and the post-FOMC move. Nice price action, but volatility is high — stop orders are getting picked up like berries 🍓
Instead of just watching it, I switched to $SOL where the volatility is even more fun. Caught a good move there as well, although the trailing stop finally closed that trade too. The main thing is that the plan was followed: risk control, partial take-profits and no FOMO ✅
I’m still looking for long setups on ETH and SOL, but now I’m treating my stops with extra respect. The market is alive, opportunities are everywhere — just remember that risk comes before profit 😉
How was your day? Is trailing stop your friend or just eating your nerves? 🤔
Waiting for the FOMC rate decision and watching the market:
$SOL is holding the 136–138 $ area after yesterday’s strong move up.
$ETH is consolidating around 3 320–3 330 $, still above the long MA on the 15m chart.
$BTC is ranging around 92k $ after a sharp pullback from the highs.
It looks like classic “calm before the storm”: lower volume, price stuck in ranges, everyone waiting for the Fed.
What I’m looking for:
1. A sharp volatility spike exactly on the news, in any direction. 2. Then the real direction after the market digests the FOMC statement.
My plan: start scaling into longs with tight stops near support (SOL 136–135 $, ETH 3 300–3 280 $, BTC 91.5–91k $), and add the main size after the market shows where it really wants to go.
Using leverage carefully (up to 20x), because even a good idea can get liquidated on news spikes. This is not financial advice, just my personal plan for the FOMC day.
I'm sitting long at $ETH from 3112, stop is at 3095, the market is choppy sideways, I was already preparing for another "it shot and flew without me"… And then in one candle: 3135 → 3150, both take profits trigger, the position closes completely ✅
Why did it shoot like that? My guess: classic short squeeze. Above 3120–3130 there were a bunch of shorts and stops, plus a thin order book — when the price was pushed through with market buys, shorts' stops/liquidations began to trigger, resulting in even more buying and an almost vertical candle 🚀
I followed the plan: entry, stop, two take profits — without greed, took my profit and now I'm out of position, waiting for a new setup. This is a reminder that even such a "random" shot is better caught with a plan and risk management, not emotions 😉
$BTC is approaching an important zone of 90.5–91k, but has not yet entered the 'comfort' zone – I still use it as a compass, not for entry 🧭
$ETH has already returned above 3 120–3 130 $ and looks the strongest among my watchlist 💎
$SOL is still just trying to bounce off the bottom near 133–134 $, but is still weaker, I will not rush here ⚠️
I am still in cash: watching to see if BTC can hold above, and ETH can maintain 3 120+ — then I will think about cautious longs. Not financial advice, just my plan 😉
The market has bounced a bit, but nothing critical has changed for me 😅 $BTC is still below the comfortable zone of 90.5–91k, so I have no positions, sitting in cash 💵
What I am watching next:
$ETH – either a normal rebound from 3080–3050 $, or a calm return above 3120–3150 $ 📈
$SOL – either accumulating liquidity around 132–130 $, or a breakout and consolidation above 136–138 $ ⚡
Until that happens – I'm just watching, I don't see the point in catching the knife 😉 #crypto #ETH #SOL #
