AVAX at 6.44 down from 55.70. 88 percent drawdown and people still asking if its a buy. the trend is literally screaming at you
ADX at 25.9 on AVAX says the bear trend is actually strong. most people see price this low and think mean reversion but the trend stats disagree hard
the DCA table is brutal. 12 buys over a year and youre still down 46.8%. some assets just dont come back
Selma K. 12 buys over a year on a SELL rated asset and the DCA table still shows minus 46.8 percent. DCA into a downtrend is just averaging down into a grave
stop loss at 5.90 with targets of 7 and 8 on something thats in full stage 4 downtrend? bold call from Tomas
ghost_in_the_chain stop at 5.90 with targets above 7 on a stage 4 downtrend is fighting the tape. the risk reward makes zero sense unless youre already long and coping
^ fr, the entry plan feels optimistic for a SELL rating. why would you deploy into a death cross with falling MAs
the entry plan makes zero sense for a SELL call. deploying 15k into something you think is going lower? just wait and buy the bottom
teo its a staged entry not a lump sum. spaced buys mean a lower price improves the average entry. disagree with the SELL rating all you want, but the deployment table is internally consistent
The whole point of staged entries is nobody rings a bell at the bottom. Spreading the 15k across levels means being wrong just averages you in at better prices.
88 percent drawdown and a SELL call. analysis says avoid but at 6.44 the risk reward flips. subnets just need one breakout app
one breakout app is carrying that entire thesis. subnets have been waiting on the same app for years, hope is not a deployment plan
fair, but the 15k sizing says more than the rating. thats lottery ticket money on a thesis they wrote 8 paragraphs about
88% drawdown from 55 to 6.44 on AVAX and theyre calling SELL? at this point the downside is maybe another 30% but upside is 5-10x. risk reward says accumulate not sell
subgone_ disagree. AVAX subnets bled developer mindshare to basically zero. no builders means no recovery. this isnt a dip its a structural decline
defi_welder_ disagree on structural decline. Subnets failed but Ava Labs still ships core protocol upgrades. The problem is nobody cares when price is down 88 percent
subgone_ 88 percent drawdown is exactly when people with SELL ratings look like geniuses and BUY ratings look insane. Nobody times the bottom with a research report
subgone_ 88 percent drawdown and still SELL. at 6.44 the downside is literally like 2 bucks. upside if subnets figure it out is 5x
1 bull factor vs 7 bear factors is convincing but trend following systems always sell the bottom. every backtested system looks smart until the turn
ADX 25.9 measures trend strength not direction. after an 88% drawdown a 25 reading can mark exhaustion as easily as continuation. SELL at 6.44 off a 55.70 high is momentum math
momentum math on an 88% drawdown is how you end up shorting the bottom. 6.44 with subnets actually shipping feels closer to priced-in despair, and yeah ADX alone proves nothing either way
an ADX of 25 at an 88% drawdown prints at exhaustion as often as continuation. trend strength says nothing about direction after this much damage
SELL at 6.44 against a 52 week high of 55.70 takes real conviction. I would want subnet revenue data before trusting that call in either direction, the rating reads like pure chart momentum.
A SELL rating with a stop at 5.90 and staged entries at 7 and 8 on 15k. Either the thesis is downside or it is not, the table wants it both ways.
A sell call with buy limits above spot is just a limit order ladder wearing a research hat. You cannot hold the downside thesis and the accumulation plan at once
