RSI 79.5 at resistance 0.28 with price at 0.27. Love the trend, hate the entry. Waiting for the retest of 0.14 support.
You might wait forever on a pullback that deep. ADX 53 with vol 1.55x on the breakout candle, this is textbook stage 2 momentum.
0.14 from 0.27 would be a 48% collapse lol, you might as well wait for 0.07. 0.24 is the realistic pullback
0.24 was the last consolidation shelf before the break, watching that zone too. anything under it and the 0.22 crowd finally gets their fill
0.24 shelf is where my orders sit too. fine to miss the rest of the leg if it never pulls back, sizing discipline beats chasing RSI 79 at full size
RSI 79.5 and they call it a buy lmao. love the conviction but that is chase territory, i would wait for a pullback toward 0.22
0.22 retest in an ADX 53 trend? strong trends rarely give you the pullback you want. half here half at 0.22 is the compromise im going with
buying RSI 79 with ATR 7.4% a day is how you become exit liquidity, but ok
Counterpoint to the exit liquidity take: 61% win rate across 23 trades with 10 of 11 factors green. A hot RSI by itself has never been a sell signal.
61% win rate across 23 trades plus DCA beating lump sum by 76 points, the system is doing the arguing for you
61 percent win rate across 23 trades is a real sample. most of these writeups flex a 6 trade streak, this one at least shows the losses
those 23 trades also span both directions, long and short. a 61% win rate on a system that flips bias is rarer than people give it credit for
fair warning but the article shows 4 buy DCA at +107% vs lump sum +31%. entries are the whole game on a mover like this
chasing RSI 79 hurt worse on every runner i skipped in 2023. ADX 53 with 1.55x volume, half size here beat waiting for a retest that never came
skipped the 2023 runners waiting for retests and watched them all leave. half size on an ADX 53 trend is the correct tax to pay, the 0.22 crowd is praying for a gift
waiting for 0.22 on a stage 2 runner with ADX 53 is how you end up buying 0.40 or never. half size here, half on the retest
half here half at 0.22 only works if 0.22 ever shows up. ADX 53 trends punish patience way more than they punish FOMO
half here half on retest is the move. ADX 53 trends dont hand you 0.22, they hand you 0.40 and a lesson about patience
chase territory sure, but 61% win rate on 23 trades with vol 1.55x on the break is not your average top signal. quarter size and let it run
quarter size on a 61 percent win rate system is still the right call. been burned too many times full sizing breakouts just because the stats looked clean
+217% off the 0.07 low and still 79% under the old 1.33 high. ENA gives whiplash in both directions, size accordingly
+217% in 3 months and still 79% off the high of 1.33. Asymmetric if the trend system holds, and a 61% win rate with only 23 trades is clean.
The 4 buy DCA at +107% crushing lump sum at +31% is the part people skip. Even on a winner, timing still doubled the result. Good breakdown.
resistance at 0.28 is basically where price is now. clear it and the thesis works, chop under it and the 50d at 0.15 is a long way down
61% win rate on 23 trades is a small sample dressed up as statistics, but 10 of 11 factors green plus 1.55x volume on the break earns a starter tranche
the DCA table keeps being the most underrated part of these writeups. 4 staged buys at +107% vs +31% lump sum, entry discipline is the whole game
+217% off the 0.07 low on 1.55x volume. i remember when ENA was the airdrop everyone dumped on day one, funny how that turns
0.07 to 0.27 on ENA while everyone kept calling it the airdrop everyone rugs. 1.55x volume says the move has legs left
