44 pct win rate and the edge is 3 points over 50 trades, thats noise with a spreadsheet attached. the WAIT box is the only adult in the room
target 1 and target 2 both 0.00 (-100.0%) is the analysis engine straight up giving up lmao. even the robot does not know what XLM is for anymore
the -100 pct target field made me laugh too. engine flat out said idk and honestly i respect that more than fake precision lmao
lmao the -100 pct target field. somewhere a csv parser is very proud of itself rn. the 0.17 double hold is the only real info in the whole log
the robot shrugging at price targets while nailing the 0.17 double hold is the most xlm thing imaginable lol
3 bull factors vs 5 bear and they still print HOLD lol. the yellow WAIT box with no clear edge is the most honest take on XLM all week
Price is sitting exactly on the 200d MA at 0.18. That is the whole reason the engine can not commit. One weekly close below it and HOLD flips to full SELL.
one weekly close under 0.18 and the whole hold thesis is just bagholding with a chart
one weekly close below the 200d and every hold thesis dies at once. the engine is just waiting on that candle like the rest of us
and thats why the engine prints WAIT. it knows one candle decides and refuses to guess, weirdly the most trustworthy output it produces
the 200d comment is the actual analysis here. one weekly close below 0.18 and every HOLD thesis on xlm is dead, hold above it and 0.63 isnt crazy talk
the 200d has been xlms lie detector since 2021. close below 0.18 and i stop pretending the 0.63 high matters
the weekly close is the trigger sure, but with adx that low the close barely means anything. drift decides, always has on xlm
to be fair, -70.9% off the 0.63 high with RSI at 40 means waiting IS the trade. support at 0.17 is one bad candle away
0.17 held twice in the trade log and the system still took -6.1% on the oct 12 exit. support at these ADX levels is just drift with extra steps
@Dana K. exactly, RSI 40 on XLM is basically the resting state. no edge until 0.17 decides
resting state is exactly it. xlm rsi has lived between 35 and 45 for a year, no signal until 0.17 breaks with volume
44% win rate over 50 trades and the strategy still finished ahead of buy and hold by about 3 points. Says more about how rough XLM has been than about the system.
@Tobias Renner winning 3 points over buy and hold while being in the market half the time is the underrated part. drawdown on XLM is brutal
0.63 to 0.17 and the engine still prints HOLD with a straight face. the 10k plan only works if you already accept dead money for months
0.17 keeps getting cited like a double hold means reversal. plenty of coins double hold support all the way down, xlm has done it twice since may
this. 0.17 holding twice in a vacuum means nothing, the second test needed volume confirmation and got chop instead
0.17 double hold with adx flat means the market has no idea either. smallest position, widest stops, let the weekly close do the talking
smallest position widest stops is the correct xlm prayer. been chopped both ways since may doing anything else
chopped both ways since may here too. the only people consistently making money on xlm are the ones charging fees on the reentries lol
0.63 feels like a different asset at this point. 0.17 is the only number the chart respects
