It changes nothing about the trade — your fills, fees and contract size stay BINANCE's — and the chart says where the bars came from.

Timeline

BeforeiWhy you took it, written before you were in it.

  1. Fri 9 Oct · 13:42

  2. Trend is down and price has bounced into the area it broke from. Waiting for the rejection, then I sell it. Stop above the high, target at the last low. Risk is one percent, no more. One entry only, I'm not adding.
