Today's trading mistake ⚠️
$BTC is moving sideways between $80.394 and $87.220 — currently at $82.880, right in the middle of the range, with RSI at 46 (neutral) and no clear trend.
The most likely mistake here: trading in the MIDDLE of the range.
Buying at $82.880 with a “tight” 1% stop may seem prudent — but in a market that moves $500–800 up and down every day without direction, that stop is just noise, taking you out of your position before any real move. And shorting in the middle of the range to “catch the drop” to $80.394 could get you squeezed up to $83.418 (today's high).
It's not just one trade going wrong — it's 3, 4, 5 in a row, bleeding your account through commissions and stop losses while the market goes nowhere.
The simple rule: there is no edge in the middle of the range. Either trade the extremes ($80.394 / $87.220) WITH confirmation, or stay out. Fewer trades, less bleeding.
Risk management: never risk more than 1–2% of your account per trade — and if the market isn't showing you where your setup is, staying out is also a position.
