Looking to enter long in the low $18,100's level btc perp futures

Back again, long btc perp futures @ $18,789

Roundtripped again... $900+ profits to about break even, closed half position at $18,795 and $18,804

Was waiting for the Asian traders to get the party going but they never showed up, volume was flattish

Anyway, good day today, will go long again tomorrow morning

I'm really enjoying this thread, @johnarb. Thanks for taking the time to post your thoughts, trades, and charts. Very helpful.

Thank you, Axon. Very much appreciate your post. I stopped posting trades, mainly because volatility was crap on btc (perp futures) until recently

Today is a bad entry but I plan to hold the position for many hours. I think btc is going back to $20K but it may not necessarily mean today or tomorrow

Bad timing on my part, woke up and seeing that chart green candle after green candle on good volume. Still looking for the news that drove this move, but haven't found it, yet. Will update the thread if I see one

It may just be a bunch of leveraged shorts that keep getting liquidated and then new shorts pile on to higher prices. Saw a Twitter post that the funding for being long btc perp futures is negative(?) the market is too heavy on the short side they pay the traders to go long, but still not enough takers

Anyway, there are 2 charts I always post, the one on the left is from the crypto perpetual futures platform but the one on the right is the more accurate market chart - Binance Spot market with volume info

Position flipped to (small) profits rn. Actually happened a few times, but no plans to close
