Executed a short-term scalp trade on $SOL/USDT during the mid-day volatility window. Entry was taken at $42.35, following a confirmed 5-minute bullish flag breakout supported by RSI reversal and increasing volume.
Set a tight stop-loss at $41.95 (-0.94%) to limit downside risk and a target at $43.20 (+2.0%) based on previous resistance from yesterday’s high. Trade closed successfully within 45 minutes, hitting the target zone.
Used 2x leverage with 3% of portfolio size to manage exposure.
🧠 Key takeaway: Wait for confirmation before entry, especially during choppy market conditions. Will monitor $SOL again if it re-tests support with volume.
