1. "Why haven’t we closed the ETH position yet, even though it hit the stop level?"
Because I believe that move was a manipulated bear trap 🐻⛓️ right after the 9:30 open.
Here’s why:
🟢 Price was showing clean accumulation pre-9:30.
🕤 Then boom — sudden drop at open, swept liquidity near the 4H FVG, and recovered fast.
🧠 Despite all this, ETH closed above Wave 2’s body, keeping the Elliott Wave count valid.
On the 1H and 4H charts, Wave 4 still holding in the expected zone ✅
To me, this was round 2 of manipulation — meant to shake out weak hands 😵💫
(Just zoom into the chart below — you’ll see it clearly 👀📊)
Also, look at BTC & TOTAL — both re-entered Monday’s Range after deviating below the Monday Low — 🔁 one of my favorite confirmation signals.

2. "Why didn’t we close BTC?"
Same logic applies here too:
📅 BTC loves a good Monday deviation and then jumps back into range.
Now, it’s trying to reclaim a major 4H S/R level 📈
And the 1H chart is showing slow but steady progress 🐢➡️📈
3. "Why are we taking a bigger loss than planned?"
It happens.
You could have perfect risk management and still face setups like this.
I’ve slightly extended my stop and increased risk to 2R 🔄
Why?
Because I trust my system and know it can handle it 💪
If you've been following my previous risk tips, you're in a good place too 📚💼
Don’t fear a calculated risk — fear bad habits 😬

4. "You’re about to hit stop but still holding… Why being emotional?"
This ain’t emotion — it’s pure risk management 🧮🧊
As I said above:
Even if I get stopped, it’s a 2R–4R loss. My system is designed to take that hit and bounce back 🔁
Your goal? Be in a position where these losses don’t shake your entire system 🤝

✅ I’ll ONLY close positions when I post an official update here.
Until then — stay sharp, manage risk, and check those charts 🔍📊
