My Bitcoin Intraday Long Plan
1. Market Review
Current BTC price is $79,807, down about 1.35% in 24 hours, with a clear pullback. The 24-hour high reached $81,314, and the low dipped to $78,758, with an intraday range of about $2,556. Volatility is moderate to high, providing room for intraday long operations.
Looking at the last 7 daily candles, BTC experienced a rise followed by a decline: starting from $80,196 on May 9, breaking through to $82,204 on May 10 (intraday high $82,474), continuing higher to $81,740 on May 11 (high $82,369), then on May 12 falling from $81,740 to $80,502 (high $81,783, low $79,848), and further dropping to $79,313 on May 13 (high $81,314, low $78,758), closing lower for two consecutive days, with increasing downward momentum. Early this morning, the price continued to decline, with the 4-hour K-line showing a drop from $79,640 to $79,044, with a low of $78,921, currently hovering around $79,800.
2. Technical Indicator Analysis
Technical signals show a short-term bearish bias but still hold medium-term bullish hope.
15-minute level: ADX at 25.36, trend momentum moderate; CCI at 96.51, approaching overbought but not overheated; WR at -16.93, in overbought zone; moving averages are bullish, indicating a short-term rebound; SAR at $79,375, acting as a stop-loss for bulls, with price above SAR, indicating an active bullish trend.
1-hour level: ADX at 33.60, trend momentum strong; CCI at 64.84, neutral to bullish; WR at -16.93, in overbought zone; but moving averages are bearish, indicating a short-term downtrend; SAR at $78,977, as a stop-loss for bulls, with current price about $830 above it, limiting bullish space.
4-hour level: CCI at -169.39, severely oversold, suggesting a high probability of a short-term rebound; WR at -91.40, also in extreme oversold zone; ADX at 24.91, trend momentum weak; SAR at $81,068, far above current price, with a bearish stop-loss above, indicating a dominant short-term downtrend.
Overall daily signals are bullish, meaning that despite short-term pullbacks, the larger trend on the daily chart remains bullish. The bullish arrangement and oversold signals on the 15-minute chart also support a short-term rebound view.
In summary, BTC is currently in a "daily bullish + 1-hour bearish + 4-hour oversold" pattern. The severe oversold condition on the 4-hour CCI (-169.39) is a key rebound signal; historically, when CCI drops below -150, a technical rebound often occurs. This suggests good long opportunities today, but entries should be made at appropriate support levels.
3. Key Levels
Key Support Levels: $78,977 (1-hour SAR bullish stop-loss), $78,758 (24-hour low), $78,500 (oversold rebound failure threshold), $78,000 (trend turning bearish threshold).
Key Resistance Levels: $79,375 (15-minute SAR stop-loss, bullish if held), $80,500 (near yesterday’s close, first target for rebound), $81,000 - $81,300 (resistance zone from previous highs), $81,314 (24-hour high).
4. Trading Strategy
Core Principle: Wait for oversold rebound, buy on pullback, never chase or panic sell.
The severe oversold condition on the 4-hour CCI is the main basis for today’s long trades. Historically, when CCI drops below -150, prices tend to have a technical rebound within a short period, usually 1%-3%. Currently, CCI at -169.39 meets the oversold rebound condition.
Today’s long zones are divided into three layers:
Primary Long Zone: $78,700 - $79,000 — the core support area of the past two days. $78,758 is the 24-hour low, $78,921 is the latest 4-hour low, and $78,977 is the 1-hour SAR bullish stop-loss. These converge in this zone, making support very dense. If price stabilizes here, the probability of a successful long is highest.
Secondary Long Zone: $79,200 - $79,500 — if price does not further dip and stabilizes in this zone, consider going long directly. $79,375 is the 15-minute SAR stop-loss; if price holds above this level, the short-term 15-minute bullish trend remains, and entry is justified.
Confirmation Zone for chasing longs: $80,500 - $81,000 — only chase after volume breakout above $80,500. This is near yesterday’s close resistance zone, with the first target at $81,000. Use smaller positions, quick entries and exits.
5. Specific Trading Plan
First Entry: When price pulls back to around $78,800 - $79,000 and shows signs of stabilization (e.g., two consecutive 15-minute candles closing bullish, volume picking up), go long with 40% of total capital, target $80,500, stop-loss at $78,500. Expected profit about $1,700, risk-reward ratio approximately 5.7:1.
Second Entry: If price stabilizes and rebounds in the $79,300 - $79,500 zone (without reaching the primary long zone), go long with 35% of total capital, target $80,800, stop-loss at $79,000. Expected profit about $1,500, risk-reward ratio about 3:1.
Third Entry: If rebound confirms and price breaks above $80,500, add a small position (15%), target $81,300, stop-loss at $80,000. Expected profit about $800, risk-reward ratio about 1.6:1.
Under oversold rebound plan, if the first trade succeeds, daily profit is about $1,700; if the second position adds successfully, daily profit about $3,200; if all three succeed, about $4,000. The key is to wait for stabilization signals after CCI is oversold, not to enter early during the decline.
6. Risk Control and Capital Management
Position management: maximum single position no more than 40% of total capital (can be slightly increased for bullish bias), and no more than 2 open long positions at once (batching entries). Daily max drawdown should not exceed 5% of total capital, and daily profit target is 2%, at which point reduce positions or stop trading.
Strictly enforce stop-loss rules:
First, technical stop-loss — close all if price drops below $78,500 confirming failed rebound; if below $78,000 confirming trend reversal, abandon longs. If 1-hour SAR at $78,977 is broken, reduce or hold off.
Second, time stop-loss — if holding for over 6 hours without reaching the first target at $80,500, reassess rebound momentum; if weakening, reduce to half position.
Third, capital stop-loss — if loss reaches 3% of principal, exit unconditionally; do not hold losing trades. Given BTC’s high volatility, a 3% stop-loss around $79,800 is about $2,394, roughly at $77,400, well below key supports, so technical stop-loss is primary.
Fourth, trailing stop — after 1% profit (about $800), move stop-loss to breakeven (cost basis); after 2% profit (about $1,600), move stop-loss to profit lock-in level (around $80,600), locking in gains.
Currently, pay special attention to risk signals: two consecutive daily closes lower, increasing downward momentum; 1-hour moving averages bearish, short-term trend bearish; 4-hour SAR at $81,068, well above current price, with a bearish stop-loss above, indicating a dominant 4-hour downtrend; volume increasing during declines, showing strong selling pressure. Although CCI oversold suggests a high rebound probability, the rebound strength and duration are uncertain, so prepare for stop-loss.
