88% down from the high and the call is HOLD? i bought at 40 and ive been regretting it for a year straight
you bought at 40 when it was already 70% off the top and youre complaining. the MACD bull cross is the only decent signal here, just wait for confirmation
Kira S. bought at 40 and holding through 6.59 is painful but selling at 88% down is how people miss the recovery. the 12k deployment plan makes sense if youre dollar cost averaging down
12k deployment plan only works if AVAX doesnt make a new low first. DCA into a dying token is still losing money just slower
chaewon_park DCA into a downtrend is just managed losses. the 12k plan only works if AVAX has a floor somewhere above zero
counterpoint, DCA into weakness looked identical in 2022 at 16k BTC and then it didnt. the plan only fails if AVAX actually goes to zero, which is the actual debate
price above the 50d but below the 200d. classic no-mans-land, could go either way
AVAX at 6.59 down 88% from 55. hold is the right call here tbh. selling at this level is just donating to shorts
subnet_ghost right that selling at 6.59 is donating to shorts. but the 50d below 200d means no confirmation yet. wait for the cross
Stage 3 topping at 88% drawdown is a weird classification. looks more like late stage capitulation, the sellers are exhausted
Lena Vogt calling it late stage capitulation is spot on. sellers are done, volume dried up. this is where accumulations happen not exits
Soren V. capitulation volume is real. saw the same pattern on SOL at 8 bucks before it ran to 200. not saying AVAX is next but the setup rhymes
subnet_bull_kep comparing AVAX to SOL at 8 bucks is a stretch. SOL had actual ecosystem usage, AVAX subnets are mostly ghost towns
bought AVAX at 8 dollars thinking it was the bottom. its been a long year
12k deployment plan for an asset down 88% from ATH. either you believe in mean reversion or youre coping, no in between at this point
drawdown_kep_ 6.59 with the 50d still below 200d is textbook distribution. the 12k plan works if you have 2-3 years patience but most people wont
AVAX at $6.54 with $55.70 52W high is not a hold its a prayer. 88% drawdown doesnt recover without a catalyst
holding from 40 to 6.59 is not conviction its sunk cost fallacy with extra steps. should have cut at 15 and rebought here
52 week high 55.70 and now 6.59. thats an 88 percent drawdown with a HOLD sticker on it. the 12k plan needs nerves of steel or a very long horizon
holding from 40 to 6.59 and calling it conviction is the most copium thing ive read today. cut your losses
cutting at 6.59 after holding from 40 locks the loss right before the cycle turns, thats how bottoms get sold. but yeah the conviction framing is cope
holding from 40 to 6.59 while calling it patience is just sunk cost in a nicer outfit. the cycle argument only pays if subnets ship real demand before the next unlock cliff
lol the hodl purists always show up in these threads. cutting an 83 percent loser and redeploying at the actual base is just basic trade management
