One third of the trade closes at each target, and the stop moves to the entry after target 1.
The 1-hour trend is firmly down, and recent headlines regarding ETF outflows and a Binance hack are weighing on sentiment. On the 5-minute chart, Bitcoin recently formed a lower high at 75721.24 and is struggling to regain momentum. We place a limit sell order at 75705 to catch a short-term pullback before a continuation lower. The stop at 75815 is placed above recent 15-minute swing highs. Initial targets are the daily pivot support at 75588.35, followed by the session low of 75485.12.
