HIGH conviction BUY while your own backtest shows -6.6% over 2 years? the honesty is appreciated but the confidence is confusing lol
Two different things. The backtest starts from 12k in 2024, this signal is stage 2 uptrend with ADX at 44.6. Trend following only loses in chop, and this is not chop.
38.7% drawdown from the 126k high and this thing still prints a golden cross with ADX at 44.6? That trend strength reading is no joke. Watching 62,487 support like a hawk before I add though.
MACD bearish while everything else screams buy is the part nobody mentions. 6 bull vs 2 bear factors still fine, but that divergence burned me in July. Half position, rest on reclaim of 82k.
Deploying at 77,365 with resistance sitting at 82,262 seems aggressive to me, but the last signal table shows these calls flipping fast. That Sep 7 BUY at 79,115 ended -2.2%, so sizing small on this one.
@Mareike Holt the flip risk is real but RSI 55.4 with room to 70 means trend entries have room. I ladder in at 50d MA 70,649 instead of chasing spot.
38.7% drawdown from the 126k high and resistance sits at 82262. lot of overhead bagholders between here and there, cautious buy at best imo
