55.70 down to 7.22 and the verdict is still Stage 3 Topping with a wait. feels generous lol
Stage 3 fits the chart though, price above the 50d at 6.73 and climbing. Doesnt make the -87% sting any less.
54 trades to still end down 47.6%. trend following with 4.26% daily ATR, the chop alone eats you alive
down 47.6% across 54 trades is basically tuition at that point. with 4.26% daily ATR every stop gets wicked before it works
87% off the high and the system still says wait. ADX at 32.2 screaming strong trend while price sits at 7.22, classic trap where the trend is up but you are buying someone elses exit liquidity.
This. The 6 bull vs 4 bear split with low conviction basically means the edge is a coin flip. Sitting on my hands until the 200d sorts itself out.
nobody mentioning OBV up with vol ratio 1.18 while price sits under 8.30 resistance. someone is quietly loading imo
vol ratio 1.18 with OBV rising while price sits under the 200d at 8.10 reads more like relief bounce loading than a reversal. Need a weekly close above 8.30 before trusting it.
OBV rising with vol ratio 1.18 at 7.22 is the only bull case worth holding onto. everything else on that chart is scar tissue
RSI 55 with OBV rising and vol ratio 1.18 is the only thing keeping me interested. Stage 3 topping at 7.22 after touching 55.70 feels rough, that drawdown number stings to look at.
Target 1 and Target 2 both at 8.00 while resistance sits at 8.30 and the 200d at 8.10. Novak is aiming straight at the wall where sellers showed up last time. 6.17 support is the line that matters.
fair on the 8.30 wall but the staged 15k deployment is the actual point of a HOLD call. he sat out the slide from 55.70 to 7.22, thats the drawdown that matters. 6.17 holds or the plan gets rewritten anyway
targets at 8.00 sitting under both the 200d at 8.10 and resistance at 8.30 means novak expects the wall to hold. very conservative aim for a topping call
