Ok. Lets make some changes: 1 - Cancel the bid order at $6354; 2 - Move the stop-loss from $6100 to $6770; Locking profits already. I'll think about adding more contracts to this position if I see any interesting opportunities.
[New change]
Move the stop-loss from $6770 to $7027.
Locking atleast 11% in profits (In the whole balance) if the stop-loss is reached

I am always talking about profits in USD. I'm a trader and not a holder, so what really matters to me is my USD balance. I keep a portion of my portfolio at bitmex for use in leveraged trade and the rest remains in USD on other exchanges.

[Update]
We still holding our beautiful LONG open at $6544, now with a stopgain at $7027 which already guarantees us good profits. Still seeing potential for upside, it looks like we're consolidating above an important support in the $7000+ range.

TOC TOC. Again in the channel's middle line.

An important moment, the candle broke up from consolidation as I expected. In this movement there was a large volume, the price was able to close above the middle line of the channel and is also above the MAs (20, 50 & 200). Nice point to the bulls, I see good upside potential for this week. We keep our target at $8520 and I will keep changing the stop-gain when needed to protect us.

In my opinion we will test the $7800 region soon (in yellow). How price will react in this range will be very important for continuing a short-term uptrend. I am quite optimistic and our $6544 entry was perfect!

Another question. Are you currently bullish or bearish on BITCOIN?
This survey was conducted when the price of Bitcoin was close to $6500, 8 out of 10 people said they were feeling BEARISH. It is for this kind of feeling that according to statistics 90% of traders are unsuccessful.
Being a trader obviously requires skills in interpreting charts correctly, but what is really important is to have emotional control and to be psychologically strong to act in the opposite direction to most traders. Without a prepared mind, the charts will NEVER be well interpreted.
If you look at the Fear & Greed index statistics for example, you will come to the conclusion that in the moments of greatest euphoria, when almost everyone believes the market will take off in an incredible way, this is where we are about to reverse. The same goes for when the feeling is that the market will "crash".
The human mind is full of pieces that need to be assembled like a puzzle, you need to think in a different way from most people to get results also different from most people.
Have you ever thought that charts are formed by feelings/attitudes of the human mind? If statistics indicate that only 10% of traders succeed, you need to think differently from most.
Think about it.

Well, the bulls didn't have the strength to push the price up to 7800, there was a strong rejection at 7700 pushing the price back to intermediary levels. Our stopgain is very well positioned and for now we have no changes in the trading strategy.

Ok guys, I apologize for the absence, I decided to stretch my mini vacation a bit, but in the next week full focus on the market again! Always try to have a few moments to relax and forget everything about the market for a few days, it is very important to maintain the psychological balance for those who trade daily in a market that is always under stress/pressure.

We recently had a formation of an Inverse H&S reversal pattern, the break up at the neckline was quite consistent, with large candles accompanied by good volume. Then the price made an almost perfect pullback on the neckline, where there was the possibility of making a very well planned and low risk entry.

It is not a perfect IH&S, but it has a satisfactory structure to be considered a reversal pattern.
Looking more closely, we can see that we are in a consolidation zone, squeezed between the yellow band and the green band.
In yellow we have an important support, which previously was very strong resistance and also the neckline of IH&S. As long as we are above this yellow band, I still believe in an attempt to break up the channel.
According to the basic principles of technical analysis, a consolidation below a resistance or trend line is a signal of strength and the expectation is of continuation in the previous trend.

According to the basic principles of technical analysis, a consolidation below a resistance or trend line is a signal of strength and the expectation is of continuation in the previous trend.
To be more objective, it was very unlikely that the price would break above the channel resistance on the first attempt of the current movement. A consolidation above the yellow band would be perfect for taking a breath for a consistent pull.
