Is LINK 8.313 a liquidity-sweeping trap or a real breakout?
$LINK /USDT - SHORT to sell
Trading plan:
Entry: 8.300 – 8.326
SL: 8.433
TP1: 8.223
TP2: 8.163
TP3: 8.073
Why watch this structure?
- The 4H direction is clearly bearish; RSI on 15M is 58.65 and not overbought, but the 1D trend is ranging, so chasing a rally is not advisable.
- The current price at 8.313 is near the 1H EMA resistance, and ATR volatility is relatively low—good conditions to set a SHORT.
- Why now? If it breaks below the 8.300 support, TP1 at 8.223 is achievable, and the stop-loss at 8.433 limits risk.
Discussion:
For this SHORT, should we go for TP1 at 8.223 first, or wait for a rebound before shorting?
