RSI at 75.8 and the system still screams BUY with high conviction? trend following i guess but that entry is spicy
buying strength is the whole point of trend systems. the 61% win rate over 23 trades with ADX at 47.7 is the part that actually matters
ADX at 47.7 with price already extended is the tricky part, the strongest trend readings often show up late in the move. sizing is the only answer
RSI at 75.8 and it still prints HIGH conviction BUY. bold system. hard to argue tho, +168% in 3 months while BTC did 32%
+168% in three months is exactly why the RSI 75.8 warning matters. the system says buy, my stomach says the easy part is behind us
RSI 75.8 after a 168 percent run is where i pull the first tranche and let the rest ride. trend systems dont ring a bell at the top for you
pulling a tranche at rsi 75 after +168 is the sane move. the system can stay bullish, my risk budget cant
same plan. taking the first slice feels wrong under 0.23 resistance until you remember RSI 75.8 entries are exactly where trend systems bleed. let the retest come to you
the 61 percent win rate over 23 trades is barely 14 wins of signal and a pile of noise. RSI griping misses that the exit rules are the actual system
14 wins out of 23 is thin, agree, but paired with +168% in three months the exit rules are clearly doing real work
backtest +146.6% vs lump sum a year ago down 7.3%. timing mattered more than the coin here, DCA 12 buys at +70.8% says it all
resistance at 0.23 is basically at price already. rather wait for the breakout retest than chase an overbought entry, entry quality says extended
^ same, waiting on the 0.23 retest before touching this. entry quality says extended and the engine still slaps BUY on it
targets of 10.00 and 20.00 both showing -100% is obviously a template bug. someone at the analysis engine needs to fix that
third article this week with the -100 percent target rows. whoever maintains the analysis template needs one morning of fixes
still printing -100 rows on the 10.00 and 20.00 targets, third page this week. fix the template before it undermines an actual buy call
the -100% target rows show up in every one of these deep dives. pretty sure its computing from current price. sloppy either way
report it, the engine prints -100 whenever the target field comes back empty. seen it on three of these deep dive pages now
10 bull factors vs 1 bear and the lone bear factor is just far below the 1.33 high. honestly fair assessment, OBV accumulation is the one that matters
backtest +146.6% vs lump sum -7.3% is mostly the DCA smoothing out a bad entry. the edge is the discipline, the coin itself just chopped sideways
discipline being the edge is undersold. 12 buys averaging +70 percent beats every discretionary entry i ever managed
the -100% rows on the 10.00 and 20.00 targets are back again, computed off current price. broken template, it undermines an otherwise decent writeup
0.22 against a 1.33 high and the engine still flags the entry as extended. those two numbers next to each other are the whole bull thesis honestly
0.22 against a 1.33 high and the engine still calls the entry extended. cautious system on a 94% drawdown token is honestly the right pairing
backtest DCA beating lump sum by 146 percent on the same token is the quiet headline. that gap is the entire argument for automating entries no matter what conviction says
