Today I placed a short trade on BTCUSDT using Smart Money Concepts (SMC). On the 15-minute chart, I saw a clear CHoCH followed by a bearish order block and fair value gap. I waited for the price to return to that area and entered the trade with 0.3 BTC at $69,300. My stop-loss was above the FVG at $69,600, and take-profit was at $68,700. The trade went well and hit my TP in under an hour. I use $USDC to hold profits securely after closing positions. Trading with clear confirmations helps me stay disciplined. I'm sharing this to track my journey and help others learn from my setups.
