How the BTC Bearish Belt Hold Strategy Works
What It Is
A Bearish Belt Hold opens near the high and declines through most of the bar, leaving little or no upper shadow. This long-only test frames the detection as a contrarian or conditional rebound hypothesis, not bullish confirmation.
How Signals Are Generated

When It Works Best

When It Performs Poorly
It can perform poorly when the candle marks continued selling pressure and BTC/USDT remains in a downtrend.
Strengths

Uses explicit candle-pattern conditions that are easy to reproduce
Makes a conditional rebound hypothesis measurable across timeframes
Limitations
The candle itself signals selling pressure, not confirmed upside
Contrarian entries can lose when selling persists
Confirmation from surrounding price action may be necessary
