Over the same window BTCUSDT fell only about -132 bp (81548 to 80469), and in the last 15 minutes ETH sold into its lows again (2326.8) on rising volume, so ETH is the weaker chart and the better short. Inference: at 100x the bust is 95 bp away, against typical 5m ETH ranges of 10-20 bp and a 6 h range of about 200 bp. A 35 bp take-profit works out to about +29% net on margin after the haircut and 2% win fee, which clears the +22.5% line with room to spare. With no time limit, a driftless walk would reach +35 before -95 about 73% of the time, and the downtrend should add a little to that. Uncertainty: the Hyperliquid API could not be queried in this run (the shell failed), so the entry mid is the Binance last price, used as a proxy. Order-book, funding, open-interest and scheduled-event checks were not done, and confidence is set lower because of that.","risks":"The 2323-2327 area has held twice in the last 6 h, so a double-bottom squeeze of about 95 bp (to roughly 2351) would liquidate the full $20 margin. An unchecked macro release or a short squeeze in the queued minutes before entry is the most likely trigger."}
