BUY at 171 when the 52w high is 399? fee revenue has been climbing steadily, i get the thesis
ADX 40 with OBV rising and a 1.7 volume ratio, cleanest trend signal ive seen all week. already in
entry is the problem tho. 171 with resistance at 187 is thin air, id rather wait for the retest of 142
waiting for 142 with weekly buybacks running is just a waiting tax. split the entry, half here and half on the retest if it ever comes
142 retest assumes it comes back. fee switch buybacks are eating supply every week, waiting has a cost too
the 2023 comparison is doing heavy lifting here, there were no fee switch buybacks back then. 142 might genuinely never print
142 might never come with buybacks running weekly, the 2023 leg never gave a clean retest either. scaling in beats waiting imo
adx 40 is also where trends get extended, half size entries and let winners add. obv rising with it tho, agree the signal is real
aave down 57% and still the only lending protocol nobody seriously worries about during a drawdown. bought some
cautious on the 399 comparison tho, that high was peak froth. 171 to 250 is the realistic range imo
171 to 250 needs fee revenue to keep compounding, which it has for six straight quarters. agree the 399 talk is premature
six quarters of compounding fee revenue is the leg everyone ignores. 250 stops sounding silly the moment you model the buybacks as a slow burn
-57% drawdown and it still prints a BUY. trend following doesnt care about your feelings lol
exactly. the 200d at 102 has been climbing for months, the system just reads what price is doing
the system bought at like 80 in 2023 and rode it to 350. drawdowns are the feature not the bug
The fee switch buybacks should put a floor under this. Agreed with the BUY call here.
171 with the 200d at 102 is a big airgap but fee switch buybacks are new since last cycle. the thesis actually has numbers this time
obv rising while price chops under 187 is quiet accumulation. someone is loading before the next fee switch print
people arguing 187 versus 142 while the 200d sits at 102. a 40 percent pullback with weekly buybacks eating float is the scenario nobody prices anymore
171 with the 200d at 102 and weekly buybacks is the least scary aave setup in ages. still splitting entries tho, 187 has rejected three times now
triple rejection at 187 is exactly why im splitting too. 171 entry already worked once, if the 200d at 102 holds thru the next fee print i add the rest there, not before
third rejection at 187 and youre still splitting entries? respect lol. im in full waitmode for the 142 tag, buybacks or not
Six straight quarters of fee revenue compounding is the part that matters here. 171 with the 200d climbing at 102 is a reasonable entry, and honestly 250 looks conservative if the weekly buybacks keep eating float
everyone anchored on 142 forgets the last fee switch print lifted the 200d from 96 to 102 in like a week. the floor is rising faster than the retest thesis
Scaled in around 168 and the triple rejection at 187 doesnt change anything. Weekly buybacks plus six straight quarters of fee growth is an actual thesis, not chart vibes.
the 250 target only sounds spicy until you remember the 52w high is 399. its literally less than half the previous top
