💣 Bitcoin (BTCUSD) 30-Min SMC Short | May 9, 2025
We just caught BTC’s premium tap into a 30m bearish Order Block, followed by a strong rejection candle. This is a classic Smart Money play, where price fills inefficiency and instantly rejects the institutional footprint.
🔍 KEY CONFLUENCES:
📦 Bearish Order Block tapped at $101,752
📈 Strong bullish impulse followed by hard rejection
🎯 Short from premium into discount zone (~$99,114 target)
🔺 Clean Risk-to-Reward: ~1:5+
💰 High-probability Smart Money setup
📊 Setup Specs:
Timeframe: 30min
Direction: Short
Entry Zone: $101,752
TP: $99,114
SL: ~$102,000
RR: Approx. 1:5+
💡 Trade Logic:
Price made a liquidity grab + FVG fill before tapping a 30min Order Block. The sharp red engulfing candle at the top confirms SMC presence and intention to sell-off. This zone represents premium pricing, ideal for institutional distribution.
🎯 Chart Ninja Note:
“Smart Money never chases price… they wait for the retest where the fear begins.”
