BTC and the weekend pump?

162
1) Huge drop at the start of the week from 18.9K to 17.6K
2) Price cooled off into a trading range and started to consolidate
3) BTC tested the lows again and rejected
4) Price then expanded the range to the upside!

Entry: 18.3-18.5K is fine
Stop: around 18K
Target: open
Expected holding time: 5-6 days has been the average in 2020
Note
Historical win rate for this trade is 40% with a profit ratio of 2.7.
Note
Good start so far. If you want to join in, there's a free script in my profile I use for retracements (Donchian Ichimoku Hybrid). Just catch a ride on the clouded green zone and ride it up!
Note
+5% so far. We can either put a trailing stop on it of $540, or wait until the trend changes. I prefer to ride it for a while since we're near all-time highs, but each trader is different.
Note
We're now in day 4 of the trade and it's going well. BTC is trending upward again and looking to break all-time highs!
Note
Day 5 update: +15%. Still in the trade!
Note
We're now in day 6: we caught a +25% move! It's possible to take profit here as BTC goes into a range, or you can let it ride. I'll still ride the trend as we're in price discovery.
Trade closed: target reached
That ended up being more than a weekend pump! The move comes out to +24%!

Taking profit now that the trend has changed.
