The open short strategy for BTC released on January 5th, and I want to share the review results of this market move with everyone.

From the strategy release to execution, BTC retraced from a high of $94,700 down to $91,200. The price movement within this range may seem simple, but for traders looking to capitalize on short opportunities, a profit margin of 3,500 points is quite significant.

The most interesting part is that this strategy was published publicly before the market move started, fully prepared in advance rather than being reconstructed after the fact (in other words, absolutely rejecting hindsight analysis). From January 5th to just after 2 a.m. today, all the data on this timeline can be verified.

For highly volatile assets like BTC, the key is whether you can identify turning points in advance at critical positions. This short strategy execution happened to seize that window. For traders learning how to analyze BTC trends, this case still has some reference value—not to boast, but to demonstrate real data and execution results.

The 3500 points are gone just like that. I should have followed the order earlier.

Well... 3500 points are gone just like that, I need to see what's going on. The short position was really aggressive this time, but releasing the strategy in advance still shows some skill. It was released on January 5th, so it's definitely not a hindsight, I have to admit that. Wait, from 94700 to 91200, I can make so much profit? Did I misunderstand something? Identifying turning points in advance sounds simple, but only a few can really do it. This round of review looks decent, the data is verifiable, better than those who just boast. Talking about a profit of 3500 points, is it really earned or just selectively displayed?

A profit of 3500 points is not a small number, but to be honest, I’m more interested in how to bottom fish in the next market.

ngl calling out the timestamps is smart move... back in my mining days we'd kill for this kind of transparency lmao. 3500 points tho, gas fees alone would've wiped half that in the old network congestion hell. anyway the real question is did you factor in slippage or just cherry-picking the perfect entry nvm this is actually decent.

Is 3500 points all? I feel like some people are still just talking about plans on paper.

The data shows... 3500 points is indeed quite a lot, but can this window of opportunity be reproduced? Let's wait and see how the trading volume performs later.

Hitting 3500 points is indeed satisfying, but I want to see if it can be replicated.
