BTC currently maintains a long position strategy. During entry, slippage was indeed encountered, and a front-run trade took precedence, ultimately forcing a $200 add-on at a high level, but overall the bullish layout remains intact.

The trading plan is divided into two layers: first, setting up a hedge short position as a risk management tool, which can be activated if the market pulls back; second, retaining the original swing long strategy as a backup, which will be reactivated if BTC breaks through a key resistance level. The original long-term bullish swing strategy will restart.

This combined approach both preserves participation in the upside and provides protection in case of a market reversal. The key is to closely monitor BTC's key support and resistance levels.
