Last week, I encountered a BTC setup that perfectly aligned with my favorite pattern — the ascending triangle. I’d been watching the 1-hour chart for days, noticing higher lows pushing against a static resistance. Volume started picking up, and I knew the breakout was near. I waited patiently for confirmation and entered on the breakout candle with strong volume. Within a few hours, BTC moved exactly as expected. What made this trade special wasn’t just the pattern, but my patience. Before, I would’ve entered too early or chased after the breakout had already happened. This time, I followed my rules to the letter. That trade reaffirmed my belief that discipline beats excitement. Every pattern needs volume and confirmation. The technicals can only help if you stay calm and focused. I now look for confluence — pattern, volume, and sentiment. This trade was a great reminder of how BTC respects structure, even in volatile conditions.
