### **Stop-Loss Strategy**

1. **Technical SL (Aggressive)**:

- **104,300–104,500** *(0.5–0.7% above entry)*

2. **Orderbook SL (Moderate)**:

- **104,800–105,000** *(1.0–1.2% above entry)*

- *Rationale*: Avoids liquidity sweeps above key psychological level ($105K).

3. **Time-Based SL**:

- **Liquidation Zones**:

- Shorts liquidated above **104,200** (1H Liq map)
