🚨 BTC SHORT SETUP — PATIENCE IS THE KEY 🚨



Don’t rush the short yet. ⏳

My current view is that BTC may still need more time to complete the upside move toward the 67,788 zone before the bigger short setup becomes interesting.

🎯 Key zone: 67,788
📉 Potential plan: Watch for bearish confirmation around this area before entering a short.
⚠️ No blind entries — let the market come to our zone first.

The biggest mistake traders make is entering too early because they are afraid of missing the move.

Patience is part of the strategy. 🧠

If BTC reaches the expected zone, I’ll be watching price action carefully for confirmation.

Wait for the setup. Don’t chase the market. 🚀📉

DYOR. Manage your risk. Never trade without a proper invalidation level.

To be honest, in market conditions like these for BTC, shorting in the short term carries considerable risk unless your position size is properly managed. For the 67,788 zone mentioned by the blogger, I would instead watch for a potential long opportunity—perhaps we just have different perspectives. In any case, waiting is a good thing, but don’t follow blindly; have your own plan. By the way, is that Gate ranking an advertisement?

Honestly, there’s nothing wrong with this approach. Many people go short not because their direction is wrong, but because they enter too hastily, opening a position before the price reaches a key level, only to get stopped out repeatedly. My own experience is that you must wait for the price to reach around 67,788 and see whether there are signs of a halt in the rise, such as a 4-hour candle close, a wick pattern, or supporting volume, before deciding whether to enter. This significantly improves certainty. In any case, I’m no longer chasing trades and I’m not afraid of missing out; I’ll only act after confirmation. The stop-loss must be placed in advance—if there’s no invalidation, I won’t take the trade.

Patience is indeed important, but many people simply can’t keep their hands off.

Wait until 67,788 is reached before discussing it. Until then, I won’t even look at it—I’d rather give up than make a wrong trade.
