$BTC Fire over Earth, Li above and Kun below. Fire rises from the earth, moving upward; the Jin hexagram is about waiting for a rebound into a resistance zone before shorting—if it doesn’t reach that level, don’t chase it.

Bitcoin is currently around 78,570, already hovering near the short swing’s 38.2% level at 78,425. The weekly close has just held above 77,500 by about +1.05%; the week’s key level has not yet been confirmed as broken. The macro backdrop remains cautious. I’m more inclined to short in stages within the zone; if it doesn’t get there, don’t chase.

I’d rather wait for it to reach the 78.4–79.1k zone and short in stages:
Entry: 78,425 / 78,756 / 79,093 (scale in only once it reaches the zone; no trade if it doesn’t)
Stop-loss: 82,200 (with a buffer beyond the structure)
Take-profit 1: 77,500
Take-profit 2: 76,261
Take-profit 3: 75,967
At the first take-profit, close half the position and move the stop-loss to breakeven. If the daily candle closes above 82,200, the plan is invalidated. The next key date is the Start of Winter on November 7; over the next couple of days, keep an eye on the midterm elections on November 3 and the nonfarm payrolls report on November 6.

Don’t chase the fire rising from the earth. Do you think Bitcoin will first run up through 78.4–79.1k and give you a short entry, or pull back to retest 77.5k first?
