[Trade Journal] Bitcoin 67K V-Shaped Recovery: Resisting FOMO and Setting a Trap

 Hello. I am Couch Cappy , striving to survive by sticking to my principles in the rough waves of the market. Today, Bitcoin plummeted to test the basement near 64.9K, and then showed massive volatility by bouncing back vertically (V-shape) above 67K with strong buying pressure. Someone might have chased the pump with euphoria looking at the massive green candle, but I chose a strategy of strictly observing today and setting a 'trap' at my desired levels. [ Controlling FOMO: Why I Gave Up Market Buying at 67K ] The most dangerous thing when a chart violently rebounds is the 'Fear Of Missing Out (FOMO)'. I also had the urge to execute a Long position at market price, but I coldly controlled it. The reason is simple. The macroeconomic trend on the daily timeframe is still in a corrective wave, and a complete reversal to an uptrend has not been confirmed. Above all, if I enter at market price near 67K, the clear defense line (stop loss at 64.8K) becomes too deep, severely ...

[Trade Log] BTC 3x Long Swing Setup ♨️ Couch Cappy's 39°C Trading

 Hey traders, Couch Cappy here. 🦥☕ 

Surviving the crypto market isn't about stressing over the 1-minute chart. I let my compound interest grow lazily on the couch. My strategy? Fixed 3x leverage, relaxed swing trades, and keeping my mental spa temperature at a steady 39°C.


[ March 15, 2026 - BTC Futures Trade Log ] Current Position: No Position (Waiting for my trap to trigger!) Recently hit a small SL, so I'm resetting my entry. Limit order is placed.

  • Asset: BTC/USDT

  • Position: Long

  • Leverage: 3x

  • Size: 30%

  • Entry: $68,650

  • Take Profit (TP): Open (Trailing Stop)

  • Stop Loss (SL): $67,318 (-1.94% Spot / -5.82% Leveraged)


[ Trade Rationale ]

  • Entry: Aiming for a solid bounce at the daily Bollinger Band mid-line ($68,606). Setting a trap at the real bottom.

  • SL: Tight SL at -1.94%. If the mid-line breaks, the trend is invalidated. Keep losses small.

  • TP: Open. I’ll let the profit run. Once it's in the green, I’ll activate a trailing stop to lock in profits while maximizing the upside. If it doesn't drop to my entry? I let it go. No FOMO, no stress. ♨️


[ Market View ] BTC breaking 73K seemed like a classic Bull Trap. Over the weekend, low liquidity was exploited to drag the price down to 70.2K—a textbook Stop Hunt clearing out late longs. We are seeing a weak bounce around 71.4K, but I'm not convinced this is the true bottom yet. Protecting capital is more important than making quick bucks. Don't get shaken by weekend whipsaws. I'm just going to lie on the couch and wait until it steps into my trap!

Trade lazy, trade smart.
