ETH Three-Period Structure Projection: 15m Short + 1h About to Break BoS, Add Position or Take Profit?



Currently, ETH's 15m / 1h / 4h three-period structures are completely clear:
The 4H bullish trend remains unchanged, the 1H bullish structure is about to reach the key BoS support, and the 15m has entered a correction zone. Holding 15m-level shorts, now the most critical dilemma arises:
Once the 1H BoS structure is effectively broken, should we follow the trend to add more shorts or directly take profit and exit?

From the perspective of SMC structure logic:
1H BoS is the core defensive level of this round's 1H bullish trend. Once effectively broken, it indicates that the 1H trend shifts from bullish to sideways, or even begins to decline. The 15m short from "contrarian trial and error" directly becomes "trend-following position," which theoretically fully meets the conditions for trend-following addition;
But the risk is equally deadly: the 4H major trend remains clearly bullish. If the 1H BoS is faked out, it’s a typical trap for false breakouts, and adding positions will only deepen the unrealized gains into a trap or be violently pulled back by the bulls to liquidate.

Two completely opposing trading logics, which side do you stand on?
✅ Viewpoint 1: Break of 1H BoS = trend turns bearish, add to short positions, profit from 1H decline
❌ Viewpoint 2: 4H bullish trend remains, 1H break is likely a trap, directly take profit and do not add

Will you add to shorts after the 1H BoS break, or just take profit and exit?
