📈 BTCUSDT Trade Breakdown: Harmonic x SMC Precision Entry

This analysis was originally shared around three weeks ago on my YouTube channel, and if you were with me live, you’ll remember I was closely watching for a Bullish Deep Crab Pattern to complete before considering a LONG position.

Let’s walk through the setup and outcome step-by-step:

🕰 WEEKLY TIMEFRAME:
Price was reacting to a Weekly Fair Value Gap (FVG) and had filled the imbalance.

As shown in the chart:

🔍 SETUP: Strategy Confirmation
Important Reminder:
Just because price hits a key level doesn’t mean we jump in to buy or sell.
✅ There must be a confirmed Harmonic Pattern that aligns with the key SMC level.

  • On the Daily Chart, we identified a valid Bullish Deep Crab Pattern:
  • B-point at 0.886
  • PRZ (Potential Reversal Zone) at 1.618 FIB Extension
  • This PRZ aligned perfectly with the key level identified on the Weekly chart.

🎯 ENTRY STRATEGY (15-Minute Chart):
We zoomed into the 15M chart for an SMC-based entry.

Supply-to-demand flip confirmed with a visible liquidity inducement—textbook confirmation.

Entry was just a few pips below the recent swing low to limit downside risk in case of invalidation.

Take Profits (TPs) were set using standard Deep Crab targets, based on FIB retracements from A to D:

✅ TP1 at 0.382

✅ TP2 at 0.618

✅ TP3 at 0.786

TRADE OUTCOME:
Entry was cleanly triggered and the price followed through as expected.

All three profit levels were successfully hit:

✅ TP1

✅ TP2

✅ TP3

We secured an impressive 13R on this single BTCUSDT trade—a solid example of what happens when Harmonics and Smart Money Concepts are aligned.
