Why We're Shorting BTC, XRP and LINK
Real-Time Breakdown by Structure and Context
At the time of writing (Tuesday), BTC, XRP and LINK are breaking down across the board. These aren’t “could be” trades. They’re live setups confirmed by structure, bias, and level rejection — and we’re in.
This is not a recap. It’s a breakdown of what we saw, what the Framework confirmed, and why we shorted. Each setup follows the same logic, visible whether you’re on the 5m or the 4H — bias, context, confirmation.
🔻 BTCUSD – Monthly High Rejected, Structure Failing
Chart time frame: 4H
Bias: Bearish Breakdown
Entry: 117,352
Stop: 119,330
TPs: 115,374 → 114,780 → 113,791
🧠 Analysis
BTC attempted to break through the Previous Month’s High (123,217) last week but was aggressively rejected. What followed was key:
The first lower high printed right below 120K
Then a clear BOS/CHoCH on the 4H timeframe
The indicator switched to Bearish Breakdown and auto-drew a short box just above 117K
We shorted into that retrace because it aligned with:
Weekly Open rejection
Compression beneath key levels
Breakdown retest with no strength on the bounce
Now price is moving toward TP3 as we write this. There’s no need to predict — the bias, structure, and box were all clearly defined.
🔻 XRPUSDT – Weak Bounce, Trap Confirmed
Chart time frame: 4H
Bias: Bearish Breakdown
Entry: 3.025
Stop: 3.142
TPs: 2.908 → 2.873
🧠 Analysis
XRP looked like it might recover early in the week — it tapped above the Weekly Open (3.085) and started to consolidate.
But context mattered:
Price failed to hold above the Monthly Open (3.020)
Buyers were stuck under resistance for 24+ hours
Structure broke down again on the 4H and bias flipped to Bearish Breakdown
The short box formed between 3.02–3.04. It was a classic case of late longs getting trapped on weak momentum.
We entered on the retest — and now price is breaking below the Prev Weekly Low (2.977) live.
This is the kind of setup that often appears on the 15m or 5m as compression + breakdown. On 4H, it just gives you more room to breathe.
🔻 LINKUSDT – Stacked Resistance Rejection
Chart time frame: 4H
Bias: Bearish Breakdown
Entry: 24.192
Stop: 27.247
TPs: 21.137 → 20.220 → 18.693 (in progress)
🧠 Analysis
LINK was cleanest of all three:
Price pushed into a triple confluence zone:
– Prev Week’s High (26.345)
– Weekly Open (25.62)
– Unfilled inefficiency from prior breakoutInstead of continuation, we got a failed breakout and then a breakdown in structure.
The Framework marked it with:
Bearish bias
A clear short box at 24.1–25.0
Target zones aligned with previous support + Month’s High
We shorted the pullback and are now seeing fast movement toward TP2 and TP3.
The breakdown is accelerating as you read this, and it’s a perfect example of how bias + rejection + retest = trade.
What These Three Have in Common
✅ Bearish Bias Confirmed
✅ Rejection from HTF Level
✅ Market Structure Change preceded Entry
✅ Short box retested
✅ Breakdown in progress
These are not predictions. The structure already broke. The bias already shifted. The entries were all reactive, not anticipatory.
And if you zoom into lower timeframes — 15m, 5m — you’ll find the same conditions there too. You just have to move quicker.
The Framework works the same across all timeframes because the logic is the same:
Follow structure
Respect context
Don’t counter bias
When traders say “don’t guess, just follow the market” — this is what they mean.
You don’t need:
100 indicators
Oscillators
Prediction models
You need bias, context, and a clear entry zone.
That’s what the Black Tie Report Framework gives you. Whether you’re scalping on 5m or swinging on 4H — it’s the same formula.
Access the Framework
You get:
Automatic bias detection
CHoCH/BOS labels
Dynamic short/long zones
Weekly and Monthly levels
Presets for 5m → 1D
Webhook-ready alerts
Private Discord access
Only 2 spots left at $47/month before the price increases to $79.
