Fed rate-hike fears and record Bitcoin ETF outflows — short the relief bounce
Created
Thesis
Bitcoin is showing signs of life around $60K, but the macro backdrop remains hostile. The Fed's Warsh explicitly stated a rate hike is on the table, and the US dollar is sitting at 40-year highs against the yen. The dollar's rejection from its weekly high is the only thing giving Bitcoin a tailwind right now. With $4 billion in ETF outflows last month and liquidity thinning, any relief rally is likely to be sold into. This is a fade-the-bounce setup.
Strategy approach
Build a mean-reversion short strategy on BTCUSD using the H4 timeframe. Entry condition: RSI(14) crosses above 65 (overbought) after price tests the $60,000 resistance level, AND the DXY (US Dollar Index) is trading above its 50-day moving average. Exit condition: 5% profit target or close above $62,500. Hard stop loss at $63,000. Max hold time: 7 days.
