This ETH trade was a bit unfortunate. Shortly after entering, the price broke below the daily opening price on the 15-minute chart. I was scalping for a short-term trade and set a tight stop loss, so I exited early according to discipline.

To be honest, my directional bias was actually correct, but I was a bit too eager with the entry timing. However, looking at it in combination with the BTC long position setup, the overall strategy was still on track. Risk control was fairly well executed; although I missed out on the subsequent move, at least I didn’t let the losses widen.
