Caught the bullish flip at $86k—now we're sitting at $97k. That's a solid move.

Managed to book profits across the $88-92k range. That was my primary target after the push from $120k, so the exit went exactly as planned.

What's interesting is how I handled the short positions: instead of holding, I DCA'd out of those shorts gradually and rotated into spot Bitcoin, bringing my average down toward the $77k level. The market rewarded that transition when BTC tested $80k—clean execution on the strategy.

It's a good reminder that flexibility beats rigid plans. You're reading the market flow, adjusting accordingly, and letting price action confirm your thesis rather than forcing it.
