Mate te this is a hung up and wind blown tree so compression and tension cuts are required do not cut 1 third on top then rest underneath as this will pinch the saws bar and chain my advice and I'm a qualified tree surgeon is look at the crown the top see what it is hung up on do not walk underneath the tree look and observe from a distance. My advice is get someone qualified to do it send me a pic and I will try help you.
