BTC Short:
- Price was rejected at 31,150.
- Price currently stands below the SMA 140. Historically, such a position has indicated a 34-
60% drop in price.
- The MFI 140 is below 50.
- Trading volume is low.
- A divergence has been noted.
- A head and shoulders pattern has broken to the downside.
- If the price tests and then rejects the SMA at 27,200, I'll be looking for an entry point on lower
timeframes.
- Stop loss (SL) positions and targets are indicated on the chart.

- Date Planned:Aug 22, 2023, at 9:30 PM.
- Execution Criteria: I will proceed if the price retests and does not surpass the SMA at 27,200.
- Alarm: Set at $26,900 to pinpoint entry on lower timeframes.
