#PCEInflationWatch This strategy is a clever way to use leverage while mitigating risk—especially important for volatile markets. By hedging with a smaller position in the opposite direction, you can cushion the impact of market reversals. The key is being flexible and monitoring the price action closely.

Here's a quick breakdown of the steps:

Hedge with Opposite Positions: When you take a 10x leverage long, opening a 5x short simultaneously gives you a buffer if the market moves against you.

Confirmation & Adjustment: Once you see the breakout confirm, adding more to your long position (while closing the short) allows you to ride the trend up with maximized profit.

Reverse Setup: For a bearish scenario, the reverse approach gives you the same protection and opportunity to pivot quickly.

And yes, setting stop-loss orders is key! Even with hedging, leveraging without a clear risk management plan can still lead to significant losses.
