    81850 vs a 126198 high and they still say HOLD. been stacking since 2021, this read matches my own spreadsheet scary well

      same spreadsheet energy. from a 126198 high down to 81850 every backtest i ran says let the vol ratio climb back over 0.57 before deploying anything

      golden cross and 50d rising but you want to WAIT? been doing this since 2017, those two together usually pay you for the patience

        Gary, the 2018 golden cross paid the patient until MACD rolled over mid-year. Same mixed signals, same chop. The stop at 77525 does the deciding for you.

        the 2016 cross printed with obv rising and the 2018 one didnt. the volume split is the difference, not the cross itself

          exactly why tranche two waits for the obv flip. the cross without volume is just a lagging average doing lagging average things

      ADX 27.6 with OBV dropping is textbook no-edge. waiting at 81850 while the 200d decides is basically free optionality

      Reply
      1. adxdiary_

        same. free optionality is underselling it, vol ratio under 0.6 after a 35 percent drawdown has burned every early buyer i know since the 126k top

        Textbook is right. I ran the same ADX filter on 2024 data and it kept me out of three fakeouts. Happy to wait under 82k for confirmation.

    distribution plus vol ratio 0.57 while price holds above the 200d, someone is unloading into this. fade the strength imo

    Reply
    1. Silje Brag

      fade the strength is what the obv divergence says but fading into a rising 50d is how shorts get folded into the chop. stop at 77525 or nothing

        77525 is a full retrace of the last leg, thats 5 percent risk to wait for a signal. a tight stop under 81k makes the chop pay you instead

    mining margins at this price are getting thin. any deployment plan that ignores hashrate economics is half a plan

    Reply
    1. wattmeter_

      hashrate economics guy gets it. thin mining margins mean miners sell into every bounce, which is exactly what that OBV divergence is showing

    WAIT with a golden cross and the 50d rising is annoying but the OBV says distribution and ive been punished for ignoring volume before. 81850 is a coin flip

    Reply
  7. Torvald Brim

    35 percent off the high and a vol ratio of 0.57, HOLD is the only honest read here. deployment plans are for when ADX breaks 30 with OBV confirming

    Reply
  8. vaultwire_

    4 bull vs 4 bear factors and everyone in here already picked a side lol. the whole point of WAIT is that 81850 tells you nothing yet

    35k plan with 4k tranches at 81850 means the first buy is barely 5 percent of the stack. the deployment plan is just hodl with extra paperwork

    everyone arguing about the cross while the 200d sits right underneath price. one weekly close below and the whole 35k plan rewrites itself, thats the real level

    Reply

      the 200d deciding everything is the honest read. one weekly close below and 77525 stops being a stop and starts being a magnet
