BTC-USD Hedge Trade Plan

3 févr. 2019

I'm pursuing this trade on Bitmex and Bitfinex as follows
5x Leverage LONG as mentioned with BTCUSD Contract on Bitfinex
5x Leverage SHORT as mentioned with XBTUSD Contract on Bitmex
I'll be leaving 25% of the position open if/once all TPs get filled.
Chart is self-explanatory, I think.
Greens - Targets
Blue - Buy Zone
Red - Stop Loss

Note

Since the market is consolidating at the moment, this trade is valid until we see a big movement in either direction.
Shouldn't be more than a week wait.

Note

If you trade only on one exchange, assuming it's Bitmex, you could hedge using XBTUSD and XBTH19 contracts both.

Trade 2 -> Bitmex Short
Playing Short on Bitmex has paid off, as the pump on Bitfinex was crazier than Bitmex's pump.
It was crazy enough to fill our short orders but stayed much below the previous highs and our SL.
All entries filled.
Waiting patiently for a dump now.

Trade 2
Got Stopped! Loss (-) 4.15%

But the leftovers on Trade 1 are still going strong.
Long's 40% in profit at the moment. This is fun.
