futuresTRADE BIAS (SNIPER VIEW)

❌ LONG: $HOOD

Late longs are dangerous

Poor RR + liquidity already taken

✅ SHORT (Preferred Setup)

Entry Zone (Scaling):

91.20 – 91.80

Aggressive Entry:

Breakdown from current consolidation

Stop Loss:

93.90 (above Order Block + liquidity high)

Targets:

🎯 TP1: 90.00

🎯 TP2: 89.20

🎯 TP3: 88.50 (major sell-side liquidity)

Risk–Reward:

~1:3 to 1:4 (clean setup)

📉 VOLUME INSIGHT

High volume on the big green candle

Volume decay on subsequent candles

➡️ Classic news spike → distribution → fade pattern

📰 NEWS CONTEXT (VERY IMPORTANT)

In assets like HOOD:

Sudden spikes usually come from headlines, rumors, or social buzz

Continuation only happens with strong follow-up volume

Here, no follow-up volume → high probability of a fake pump

⚠️ CONFIRMATION LOGIC (5m / 15m)

Take shorts only if:

• Lower high forms on 5m

• Bearish engulfing / displacement appears

• Volume spike on a red candle

• Acceptance below 91.00

🧠 FINAL VERDICT

This looks like a NEWS-BASED LIQUIDITY GRAB, not genuine bullish continuation.
