stage 3 topping, price stuck under the 200d at 310.69, and a 6% daily ATR. yeah hold is generous, this is a coin that chops you both ways
the wait call is fair tbh, R:R of 1.45 at midrange entry is thin. backtest entry at 233.90 is already up big, taking that and sitting out is valid
1y chart is brutal, 598 down to 307. weird that it ran +45.6% in 3 months while still under the 200d tho. if it reclaims 310 this whole read flips
the backtest entry at 233.90 being up big is the whole story here imo, fresher entries get the chop
reclaiming 310.69 flips the whole read, until then this is a range coin. that 6 percent daily ATR chops both sides of the book
6% daily ATR is exactly why i stopped swing trading BCH. grufflode is right, it chops both ways, the 200d at 310 has been a ceiling for months
hold is generous, agree. thin 1.45 R:R at midrange. take the 233.90 backtest entry and sit out the chop instead
holding a stage 3 top with a 15k deployment plan is bold. i would have waited for a retest of 233 before committing anything
598 down to 307 on the 1y and the 200d at 310.69 is the only line that matters on this chart. everything else is noise
