In this unfiltered video, The Art of Crypto walks through three recent crypto trades—two on CRV and one on Bitcoin—explaining the technical reasoning behind each entry and exit. He frames the analysis around the London and New York “kill zones” from ICT theory, using break‑of‑structure, order blocks, and imbalance zones to pinpoint entries. Fibonacci tools (including negative extensions) are employed to set targets, and he reflects on a missed opportunity to improve risk‑to‑reward by using a –0.5 level. For Bitcoin, he emphasizes the importance of higher‑timeframe context, noting that the daily high often forms at the London close, and he projects targets at the previous week’s high and a bearish daily order block around $42k. Throughout, he discusses risk‑to‑reward calculations (e.g., 4.5:1, 6.4:1), trade‑management decisions, and the influence of session dynamics (mid‑week reversal expectations). The video serves as a practical instructional guide for crypto traders seeking to apply session‑based analysis, order‑block theory, and Fibonacci confluence in real‑time trading.

What's up everybody? Just making a quick video to give you guys a little bit of a rundown. So this is the moderator lounge, and yesterday I posted at 11:04 that these were two trades that I took, and I did also mention at 11:05 that the high of the day should form during the London close today, which ends in. About an hour. So what ended up happening was high of the day formed literally five minutes after I posted this in the that was on Bitcoin. But you know, this video we're gonna talk a little bit about my rationale behind entering into these two trades. And honestly, it was just first question that I have to answer is no, I. Did not specifically pick CRV. It just happened to be the coin that I was looking at at the time, and I was like, "Hey, this coin looks pretty decent," so I got in. So on the first entry is during a London. So this is during, if I'm not mistaken, this is London seven. So nine a.m. London. This is sort of like the London kill zone from ICT, and I just saw that you broke structure from to the upside here. So this happened during the London kill zone. So immediately I just drew a fib from that swing low to that swing high, and I looked for the optimal trade entry. So usually that is the 0.705, but Just to optimize that a little bit more, I did see an order block over here. So that was my entry with my stop there. Now my target was the previous swing high, which in hindsight, in hindsight, I could have used the negative Fibonacci to give me like better TPs because obviously, you know, this really took off. So in hindsight, I shouldn't have taken everything here and I should have taken more at some at the -0.5, which would have gave— which would have gave me about 4.5 risk-to-reward ratio. But this is what ended up happening. And the second trade that I took happened during the New York kill zone. So ideally, because you've got a breaker structure— like, similarly, usually when London decides to go up, then the New York session tends to want to continue as well. It's just a very general rule of thumb. It is not— it is by no means like— it is by no means sort of black and white. And if I say so, it has to happen, for example. It doesn't have to work that way. So the second entry, which I missed actually because I was not at the PC, is over here on this order block here. When you break structure during the New York kill zone and then you come back down to fill in imbalance, then that's your entry. You could argue that you had a chance here it came back down into this point here, uh, but I missed this one, so we're not going to talk about it. So the last one is going to be the London close. So usually, usually, um, I'm going to speak from the perspective of Bitcoin because altcoins tend to just do fuck all. So from the perspective of Bitcoin, the high or low of the day tends to come during the London close. Usually, most of the time speaking. So, for example, if I go over to Bitcoin right now, you can see that the high of the day did come at right here during the London. No, no, no. London close was yesterday. Let me go back to the five minute. So, London close was yesterday, and this was when I mentioned it that the high of the day would form. And right there, the high of the day formed at eleven ten, which is. The London session, and it just so happened to form here on this zone of supply right here. So this is the importance of having like a higher time frame. You always want to have a higher time frame in order to just understand where are the areas of value that you might want to take some profit or whatever, or like, you know, for a short, whatever, you know, just stuff like that. And secondly, uh, and this is currently a trade that I'm taking at the moment. So I opened a long over here similarly during the London kill zone. I noticed that there was a break of structure to the upside, and so I— and also I noticed that there was imbalance, imbalance here, right? There was imbalance here. So I waited until price came back into a Sort of like an order block, and then just as we continued onwards, I was just like, I really wanted to short this because my knowledge is that hey, you know, today's Wednesday and probably a midweek reversal. But I was like, but you got like a break structure to the upside, and so I was like, yeah, let's just go long and. My target, um, I didn't make the same mistake from yesterday, which is to target the previous swing high, although that would have been a good idea. So I'll give you my rationale behind why my target is the previous week's high. So if I just draw a fib from that low to that high, which is where I sort of based the entry from, if you scroll up to the -2 Fibonacci, so just so I don't make the same mistake as yesterday I'm giving a higher target. So I'll give you the reason why I think that this target is the one that I'm using. So notice how you have relatively equal highs over there. This is on the 1-hourly, so this will be much clearer on a 15-minute timeframe. So right there, and just so happens to be the previous week's high. So it's multiple confluence factors, and I will definitely consider taking some at the previous day's high. So that's going to be TP1 for me. And I'm just going to let the rest ride. 6.4 risk-to-reward ratio, even though it's just 1% gain. But depending on how much you risk on your account, for someone risking $1,000 per R-value, this is $6,400 right here. So my target is the previous week's high. Do I think that is likely? I just go on to the daily chart, uh, to see if that's likely or not. And just so happens that you have a bearish order block on the daily. So then you have to figure out, hey, is it possible that price will go to $42,000 today? And based on this order block, I would say that's the target that the price is reaching for. And with that in mind, um, maybe I might change my target from the previous week's high to simply taking my profits, everything, at $42,100. Because that's where the order block, the bearish order block, sort of begins. But we will see. It just so happens also that the body of the candle, the body is at 42,300. So I'm, you know, for now maybe I'll stick to that target. Do I expect it to get hit today? I'm not sure. But assuming that, because London has showed us that it is bullish, so London has showed us that it is bullish, then I would expect New York to do the same. And if New York does the same, then why not, right? So it's just a small little analysis on the trades that I took from yesterday, how I was able to predict the top would come here. And for today as well, you know, I'm predicting that the top the London close. It's gonna come here as like— it's gonna come during the London close as well. So yeah, trust me, I really wanted to short this because today's Wednesday and midweek reversal tends to happen today, but I'm glad that I went long instead. Hopefully this video has been of some help to you. If you like it, let me know, but otherwise, bye. Bye-bye.
