86% drawdown and theyre calling it a hold? id need to see at least a reclaim of the 50d before even thinking about it
the MACD bear cross kinda kills the GC argument tbh. both can be true at once and usually the bearish one wins in stage 1
Henrik W. MACD bear cross killing the golden cross argument is the right read. in stage 1 distribution the bearish signal almost always wins. INJ needs to reclaim 6.50 before any bullish setup matters
vol_skim_ exactly. INJ needs to reclaim 6.50 before any bullish setup matters. golden cross in a stage 1 distribution is a trap not a signal
stage1_realist_ problem is resistance sits at 5.47 before 6.50 is even a conversation. two walls between here and the reclaim everyone is waiting for
Mats E. this. everyone chanting 6.50 like 5.47 isnt standing there with a wall of sell orders. first reclaim target should be the 50d anyway, the gc chatter is cope
the 50d on INJ has been flat as a pancake for weeks, even a reclaim there tells you nothing without volume. 5.47 is the only level that matters, its where the last two selloffs started
the 6.50 reclaim take ignores the staged part. 35k spread across tranches at 4.87 means a lower low just improves the average, no single magic level required
Sunny O. averaging down improves the average right up until the next leg. INJ printed 2.71 for a reason and nobody in this thread knows if thats the floor or a checkpoint
every level prints for a reason until it doesnt. give me one flow or on-chain datapoint behind 2.71 instead of chart mysticism and ill take the bear side seriously
stage1_realist_ INJ at 86 percent drawdown with a bear cross is the textbook falling knife. even HOLD gang has to admit the risk reward is terrible here
HOLD at 4.87 with a staged plan isnt the same as yoloing the knife. rating says wait for structure, tranches say slowly. read past the headline
helix_trader_ staged entries only help if the thesis has a floor. the article itself keeps 2.71 as the line, so its tranches toward a level nobody has tested twice yet
flare_catch_ 86 percent drawdown and HOLD is tough to swallow but the system isnt wrong. accumulating during a stage 1 distribution phase is how you catch falling knives. patience is the trade
Soren D. accumulating during stage 1 distribution is how you catch falling knives yes. INJ needs a higher low confirmation before any accumulation thesis makes sense
Golden cross already printed though. Last time INJ had a GC around these levels it ran 40% in three weeks.
golden cross on INJ last time ran 40 percent in 3 weeks per Dmitri S. but that was before the 86 percent drawdown. different context, same pattern. risky bet
Dmitri S. last golden cross ran 40 percent sure but INJ was coming off a 14 dollar base not an 86 percent drawdown. completely different market structure
Henrik W. 40 percent rally off 14 bucks vs 86 percent drawdown from ath. the golden cross bulls are comparing two completely different market setups
35k across tranches with support at 4.44 and the first real test below 4. the whole plan lives or dies on whether that 2.71 low holds, everything else is averaging into a maybe
everything in this plan leans on 2.71 holding. if that goes the tranche math just becomes averaging into a falling knife with extra steps. i want a higher low first
Tranches toward an untested floor is the exact critique the plan needed. I would rather buy the second higher low at worse prices than catch 2.71 with 35k.
the written plan stages entries so 2.71 breaking just lowers the average. your version needs a higher low, the actual plan needs a max pain threshold and a calendar. different instruments
HOLD on an 86% drawdown with a bearish MACD is a bold rating. even the plan risk table flags stage 1 distribution, this is a wait rating wearing a hold costume
a hold with staged buys below a 4.87 average is polite language for i might be wrong but im not capitulating. fixed tranches still beat vibes entries, respect that part
