$COIN 30% Pullback Confirms if we Fakeout Recent 15%+ Rally

104
🧨 COIN SHORT TRADE IDEA — FAKEOUT TRAP IN PLAY
Ticker: COIN
Date: June 20, 2025
Thesis: Breakout trap setup — expecting a rug pull / red reversal tomorrow to confirm.

🔍 Context
Price broke above range today with a big +18.8% candle to $295 — but...

Volume spike may signal exhaustion, not strength.

RSI = 68 → near overbought

MACD curling into a bearish cross — same signal preceded the last -30% and -40% drawdowns.

History: Same range-break setups in Dec and Feb collapsed hard (-30 to -40%) over 16–25 days.

💣 Trade Plan (Short Setup)
Entry Trigger:
🔻 Enter short if price closes below $277 tomorrow — confirms breakout trap.

Targets:
🎯 Target 1: $253 (top of old range)
🎯 Target 2: $235 (mid-range support)
🎯 Target 3: $208 (full breakdown move, matches last 2 cycles)

Stop Loss:
🛑 Above $297 (breakout highs)

Timeframe:
1–3 weeks (16–26 bars historically)

🧠 Bias
Bearish unless bulls hold $280+. If we get a big red daily candle tomorrow, fakeout confirmed — high-probability follow-through expected.
