30min OB Backtest Long

Context
A simple price action idea, when a 30min Order Block gets broken through impulsively, the first backtest of that same OB often gives a clean reaction. The plan was straightforward: wait for price to return to the 30min OB, look for a reaction, and keep invalidation tight. Alert set on the OB level, nothing to do but wait.

Setup
As price tapped the 30min OB, futures showed Open Interest building mostly on negative delta. Shorts were opening into a potential support zone. That positioning creates the fuel for a squeeze if the level holds.

Entry
Long taken on the OB backtest as shorts positioned against support.

Exit / Management
TP1 taken at the liquidity grab above the nearby highs from the previous drop, a quick +1% move. Stop moved to breakeven after TP1. Remaining position eventually stopped out at BE. A clean, disciplined outcome profits secured, no unnecessary risk held.

Bitcoin Channel SFP Long

Context
A well-respected channel on Bitcoin had been identified and the plan was simple, fade the extremes. Liquidity below and the prior week's equilibrium above were the two areas of interest. The channel mid and bottom both gave three clean reactions, but the main trade came on the SFP of the low. Discussed live on stream that limit orders would be waiting there overnight, SFP trades after ranges consistently give strong reactions and this was no exception.

Setup
The SFP of the channel low delivered exactly what the setup called for. Over 112 BTC new net shorts on Hyperliquid alone visible on the footprint chart with aggressive short positioning into the low while longs were being squeezed out simultaneously. That combination at a range extreme is one of the highest-probability reads the orderflow toolset offers. Limits were already set, alert already fired and the trade was taken without needing to watch screens overnight.

Entry
Long triggered overnight at the channel SFP low as limit orders were hit.

Exit / Management
Trade delivered a 5% move from the SFP low. Profits booked after 3%, stop moved to entry. Remainder of the position running with no risk on the table.

NY Open Deep Retracement Long

Context
New York open session live. A deep retracement was identified and the bias was long but patience was the key ingredient here. The low came in but the confirmation didn't arrive immediately. Rather than jumping in early, the plan was to wait for shorts to show up and give the trade its fuel.

Setup
A few minutes after the low was put in the picture became clear. Aggressive shorts on the footprint, negative delta printing, a clean CVD reversal developing, and liquidations hitting all the ingredients for a high-probability long. The MMT alerts had already flagged the retracement zone and when the flow confirmed, the entry was taken live on stream with the full academy watching.

Entry
Long taken after confirmation a few minutes after the low, aggressive shorts, negative delta, CVD reversal and liquidations all aligning.

Exit / Management
First TPs taken after the usual 1%. Target for overall profits was the VWAP above reached cleanly for a 2% total move from the entry. Textbook patience rewarded with a structured exit.
