Order Block Rejection with Channel Breakout, Smart Money at Work

29
🧠 BTC/JPY Smart Money Breakdown — May 17, 2025

This setup is a textbook bearish reaction off an Order Block right at the top of a rising channel. Let’s dive into what the big money is doing behind the scenes ⬇️

🧩 1. Context
Market was respecting a rising channel on 15m

Price made a final sweep of internal liquidity into a:

🔴 Red Order Block

📏 Premium zone above the mean

Now we’re seeing a strong bearish displacement candle closing outside the structure 👀

🎯 2. Trade Setup
Entry zone: 15,090,000–15,150,000 (Order Block zone)

SL: Above 15,150,000

TP Zones:

TP1: 15,000,000 (psych level + OB base)

TP2: 14,900,000

TP3: 14,829,228 (full imbalance fill + liquidity resting zone)

➡️ Risk-to-reward ≈ 1:3+, depending on exit

🔍 3. Smart Money Confluence
Order Block rejection: Institutional footprint

Break of channel support: Sign of displacement

Liquidity sweep: Retail breakout bait → SMC trap

Momentum candle shows no hesitation — bearish intent confirmed

If you want sniper trades that flip zones into gold, this is it.

📉 Wait for a possible retest if missed — price might kiss the OB again before further melt.

🧠 Final Thought:
The JPY strength + BTC weekend illiquidity combo makes this setup extra spicy. Stay sharp for potential retests or lower timeframe entries 🔍

💬 What’s your bias? Will BTCJPY keep dumping or fake the break? Let’s debate in the comments 👇
