  1. Target 1 and Target 2 both say 0.00 (-100%). even the analysis engine gave up lmao. actually tells you everything about XLM

    1. Stella O. targets at 0.00 minus 100 percent is the analysis engine literally saying this token goes to zero. ive never seen a more honest technical rating

  2. stable_yield_rat

    OBV up with vol ratio 1.45 but still a SELL? someone is accumulating while the trend is down. classic divergence that either moons or traps everyone

    1. on xlm it traps. same divergence printed in 2024 and the accumulation turned out to be foundation wallets shuffling. transfer counts or nothing

  3. Below both the 50d and 200d MA, RSI 40, -72% from highs. MoneyPenny and IBM partnerships did absolutely nothing for this token in 5 years

    1. strategy returned +3.7% vs buy and hold at -44.1%. thats the only stat that matters here, the trend system actually saved you from XLM

      1. Pedro V. strategy returning positive 3.7 percent while buy and hold lost 44 percent is the only argument here. trend following works even on dead tokens

    2. the trend system beating buy and hold by 48 points on a dead token is the strongest ad for trend following on this entire site

      1. math_nerd_mira 48 points of alpha on a dead token is also 48 points of whipsaw on a live one. trend following charges rent everywhere

    3. moneygram, IBM, five years of partnership headlines and a minus 72 percent chart. at some point you admit the partnerships were the product

  4. XLM at 0.18 down 72% from 0.63 and moneygram partnership did absolutely nothing for price. the utility thesis is broken for this token

  5. RSI 40.8 and stage 4 downtrend. even with accumulation signals you dont catch this until the 50d turns. anyone buying here is fighting the tape

  6. targets literally set to 0.00 and people in the comments still defending XLM. the analysis is telling you the token is dead and youre arguing

    1. 0.00 targets means the model ran out of precision decimals more than a literal zero call. still bearish tho, xlm at 0.18 with 35B supply needs real flows and the moneygram letdown was the last time anyone pretended it had them

      1. the moneygram history matters. same headline pumped it 48 hours in 2023 and the token round tripped within a week, twice shy now

      2. the 0.00 targets being a precision artifact is my favorite detail. the model literally ran out of decimal places for how bearish xlm is

        1. the engine literally ran out of decimals is the most brutal honesty a ratings model has shown on here. 35 billion supply and three red years, checks out

        2. bearish beyond floating point precision is my new favorite indicator lmao. the model literally ran out of decimal places for xlm

  7. 72 percent drawdown from highs and OBV is still rising. someone is accumulating bags that will never pump. fascinating

    1. obv rising on a 72% drawdown is usually one entity shuffling coins between its own wallets. call it accumulation when transfer count moves too, on its own its wash noise

  8. 12k deployment plan attached to a sell rating is the system hedging itself. if every indicator is red, sit in stables and wait for the 50d to actually turn. no plan needed

  9. vol ratio 1.45 on a stage 4 downtrend and they still printed both targets as 0.00. most honest sheet on this site, the model just refused to lie

  10. targets at 0.00 because the engine ran out of decimals. brutal but honest, xlm has bled three straight years on infinite supply
