- The entry is placed right after the price breaks above the upper trendline resistance and sustains above it, confirming the breakout.
- The take-profit level is set near a key psychological level and the next visible resistance zone at 4003.304, giving ample room for profit if the breakout captures momentum.
- The stop-loss is positioned below the most recent swing low and below the lower trendline, minimizing risk in case the breakout fails and the price reverses.
