He said that the market structure suggests that the market is weak and the price is retracing into a valid mitigation zone, with liquidity levels already swept. He noted that there was a weak bounce and no bullish momentum, which meant that downside was still favored.

Patel suggests an entry at $2.294 with a stop-loss at $2.423. The target prices are $2.20 and $2.08. Patel suggests waiting for confirmation of the entry through price rejection or displacement before entering the trade, taking partial profits at the first target, and trailing stop-losses aggressively.
