Yesterday, MSTR sold some Bitcoin, so I went ahead and opened a small short position. Turns out the market slowly desensitized and wasn’t really affected. Bitcoin even dipped a bit and then bounced back. It’s good that there wasn’t a major emotional breakdown, but the downside is I have to hold onto my position. Luckily, my position size isn’t too big. As I mentioned before, Bitcoin still hasn’t broken through the $64-66 range, and the U.S. stock indices have also seen a bit of a pullback. Bitcoin can’t stay unaffected either. It’s just consolidating for now. As long as the market isn’t emotionally shaken by MSTR’s sale, it’s all good. Just now, with the geopolitical risks between the U.S. and Iran, oil prices have climbed back above $70. I’ve closed all my previous WTI short positions. If there’s another opportunity, I’ll continue shorting at higher levels. Plus, this rebound in oil prices might create significant speculation around next week’s inflation data release. The expected values haven’t been announced yet. Hoping next week’s data looks good and eases inflation concerns. Still keeping an eye on it.
