Going hard on a BTC short position right now. Planning my last DCA entry just below $98k—that's where I think it makes sense to add to the position. My target is $80k, mainly as a hedge against my spot holdings since those are still underwater. Got my stop loss set around $104k, so if it breaks that level decisively, I'm out.



Meanwhile, I'm trimming some exposure here. Offloading portions of my SOL and ETH positions to lock in some gains and free up dry powder. The way I see it, taking some profits off the table while BTC is this volatile just makes sense for portfolio balance. Let's see how this plays out.
BTC1.67%
SOL0.03%
ETH0.88%

ngl 98k shorting sounds a bit aggressive, just worried that the pullback won't come and instead breaks 104...

ngl this $98k bottom-fishing plan sounds okay, but I'm afraid BTC might turn around and give you a $110k...

According to research, there is a key issue with this hedging strategy: the 98k DCA entry point assumes a linear decline in the market, but actual data shows that BTC often forms a V-shaped reversal during high volatility periods. From a technical perspective, setting your stop loss at 104k indeed avoids black swan risks, but it also implies an acknowledgment of the uncertainty in short-term judgment—which is worth noting.
