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