BTC Short From Resistance Worked, But Upside Momentum Still MattBitcoin / TetherUSBINANCE:BTCUSDTTrader_Gemini Summary: BTC rejected several times from the red resistance zone. Because of that, I entered a short and already took partial profit around the orange arrow. However, the key point is not simply that the short worked. BTC is already bouncing again, and the short-term upside momentum still looks strong. That means short positions should be managed carefully and quickly. Resistance reaction: The red zone was the expected resistance area. BTC reacted from that zone several times, and a short-term pullback followed. That gave a valid short opportunity, and partial profit has already been taken. But I do not want to treat this as a large bearish confirmation yet. The market is still showing strength. Upside context: Even though my mid-term and long-term view still favors the short side, I have repeatedly said that BTC was in a zone where a short-term bounce could happen. The current upside move came after a wide one-week range around 62K–64K. When price builds a wide range and then breaks higher, that move can still have continuation potential. Bullish-looking structures such as cup and handle or inverse head and shoulders are also still visible. This does not mean I want to chase longs aggressively here. But it does mean I need to respect the upside risk when managing shorts. Trading view: Trying shorts at resistance can make sense. However, when bullish structures are still alive, shorts should be managed with tighter risk control. That means partial profits should be taken quickly when the move appears. If price continues to pull back, I will watch the blue zone for a possible long reaction. Conclusion: The short from the red resistance zone worked, and partial profit has already been taken. But BTC is bouncing again, and the short-term upside structure still looks strong. For now, I think the right approach is not to marry one direction. Resistance can be used for short attempts. Pullback zones can be used for long reactions. The key is to manage risk and respond to the market. This is a market structure analysis and personal trading journal, not financial advice.
