-70% drawdown and they still got it as Stage 4 downtrend. anyone holding XRP since the 2021 highs is down catastrophic. SELL signal is 3 years late lol
70% drawdown from the high and theyre calling SELL? isnt that when youre supposed to buy the fear lol
death cross + price below 200d and youre quoting buy the fear? trend following says avoid, and the system is right here
MACD bullish divergence with OBV accumulation but still a SELL? thats the one thing that makes me think a bounce is coming. not buying but not selling here either
^ 2 bull factors vs 5 bear is pretty clear though. one green candle on the MACD doesnt fix a death cross and price below both MAs
$1.09 with a 52w high of $3.65 is rough. MACD bullish but everything else screaming downtrend, the OBV accumulation is a trap
$1.09 with a 52w high of $3.65 and they call SELL. 70pct drawdown is usually where shorts get squeezed but the death cross says otherwise
MACD bullish divergence with OBV accumulation but still SELL. that divergence is the one signal that makes me think a bounce is coming. not buying but not adding short here
Isolde M. MACD divergence on XRP has been a trap for 2 years. every time it looks like accumulation price makes a new low. trust the trend not the divergence
