34% win rate across 47 trades and people still wonder why trend following doesnt work on alts in bear markets
47 trades to lose 52% lol couldve just held and lost the same amount with zero effort
rekt_penguin lmao 47 trades to lose the same amount you would have just holding. trading fees and slippage are the real enemy on alts
1 bull factor vs 5 bear factors and people in the comments are still defending AVAX. the trend system is literally screaming at you to walk away
6.39 with support at 6.06 is a 5% buffer. stop at 5.89 means youre basically entering at the floor with no margin for a wick down. id wait
88.5% drawdown from the 52w high. i held avax through the avalanche summit hype in 2021 and im still in pain seeing these numbers
Marek J. 88.5% drawdown from the 52w high is brutal. AVAX subnets were supposed to be the narrative but nobody is building on them
88.5% drawdown from the 52 week high of 55.70 and the analysis says topping. AVAX bagholders from the subnets narrative are going to be holding for a while
the death cross signal on a 6.39 token that used to be 55 is brutal. anyone still DCAing into this needs to read the stage 3 topping call twice
Joakim F. DCAing into a 6.39 token that was 55 is the most expensive cope in crypto. you can buy the narrative or you can read the chart
depends entirely on the entry. a bag started at 40 is done, adding under 7 with a multi year view is a different trade than the chart screamers admit
sub6 narrative peaked and now AVAX is competing with L2s that have actual ecosystem traction. the subnet lockup was the bull trap
ETH up 13% and SOL up 14% over 3 months while AVAX bleeds 3.7%. the subnet narrative is dead and the data shows it
SELL at 10k target? Bold call. AVAX subnets narrative is solid but the token economics with continuous unlocks keep suppressing price. Institutional interest seems to have shifted elsewhere this cycle.
avax_perp_trader continuous token unlocks are the real tax on AVAX. subnets could be genuinely useful and the price still bleeds because inflation eats the demand
unlocks plus whatever the foundation wallets drip, you can watch the float grow on explorers every quarter. subnet fees paid in avax just recycle the same sell pressure
88.5 percent drawdown from 52w high and the SELL call is still the right move. subnets were supposed to compete with L2s and instead bled developer mindshare to base and arbitrum
the mindshare bleed is worse than any chart shows. every subnet pays its own validator set in AVAX while deploying on base costs peanuts. the incentive math was broken from the start
stop at 5.89 under 6.06 support is tight for something that wicks 8 percent on a random tuesday. the SELL direction reads right, the risk sizing is where id push back
exactly. shorting a 6 dollar alt with a stop one wick wide is just donating to the market. either give it room past one full ATR or dont bother with the signal
SELL shows up at 6.39 after 88 percent of the damage is done. Trend systems on alts are always late to the exit, the sellers who wanted out were gone at 30. Where was this signal in March.
SELL on avax at 6.39 feels late tbh. anyone who bought this portfolio above 20 is already down 60 percent, the rating just makes it official
ratings like this arent for holders, they stop new money from catching the dip. half the comments will be bagholders taking it personally, watch
10k portfolio on a SELL thesis is paper trading with extra steps. if the analysis is so bearish where is the short allocation, otherwise its just content
the 10k is just position sizing for readers, the rating is the product. but fair point on the short side, a SELL without a reclaim level is half a trade. price at 6.39 against a 55.70 52w high means the trend already did the talking
