RSI at 70.9 and they still call it healthy? the second that reading hits 75 the same system will flip to a sell signal and everyone acts surprised
gt held overbought for weeks during the exchange token run and the world kept spinning. RSI 70.9 with OBV confirming is trend health, not a countdown
thats the deal with mechanical systems, the rules are published up front so you cant cry manipulation later. id rather get flipped out at 75 than gut-feel my way through an exchange token
every system has thresholds, thats what rules are for. RSI can sit above 80 for a month in exchange token runs, ask anyone who shorted BNB in 2021
10 bull factors against 1 bear and the one bear is a 67% drawdown from the high. That single factor outweighs half the bullish checklist imo.
the 67% drawdown line is entry math, not a warning. anyone who bought GT at those lows is up huge, listing it as the lone bear factor is hindsight cope
calling the 67% drawdown hindsight cope is wild. it literally happened, GT at 25.95 was an actual price actual people paid
25.95 buyers existed and the system buying strength at 8.45 is the entire point of the drawdown column. both true, one is actionable
25.95 was the 2021 listing spike, barely any volume actually traded there. using it as the reference price makes the drawdown math flattery either way
survivor math. GT at 25.95 happened and the system still buys strength at 8.45. drawdown columns are context, calling them cope is selection bias
nobody forced the top buy, and the drawdown column exists so the 8.45 entry has context. both of those things are true at once
^ the OBV accumulation with vol ratio 1.84 is the only line here that matters, people buying the dip quietly while everyone stares at the RSI
ADX 48.3 on a Stage 2 uptrend is genuinely strong trend confirmation. Held GT since the exchange token run last year, this tracks.
Splitting the 35k across tranches instead of one entry is the right call with ADX at 48.3. Strong trend, but chasing a single fill at these levels is how you get wicked out.
agreed on tranches, but 10 bull factors on an exchange token is mostly one bet wearing ten hats. volumes up means everything else on that list goes up too
thats every exchange token thesis ever though. one variable, volume, wearing a hat collection. still outperforms most fundamentals bags i have held
fair, but buybacks funded by fee revenue means volume is the hat and the head underneath it. at least the cashflows are real unlike most bags i have held
cashflows are real until volumes dry up. the buyback is a promise sized off last quarter fees and fees can shrink faster than schedules do
fees shrink faster than schedules, exactly. volumes are the only real input and the buyback is downstream of everything
buybacks sized off last quarter fees is the classic exchange trap. one soft quarter on derivatives volume and the 75 flip target moves out two quarters
true that fees can shrink, but part of the buyback is funded from their derivatives volume which has been the one line item growing this quarter. watch that number more than spot
the derivatives funded part of the buyback is the detail. spot fees follow the market, derivatives keep printing through chop, totally different risk
35k into GT at 8.45 after that 67 percent drawdown takes guts. the buyback schedule is the quiet bullish line nobody quotes
buyback schedule plus recovering volumes and the system still waits for a 75 flip. patience is the actual position here
8.45 against a 25.95 high with real fee cashflows is at least a defensible entry unlike most exchange token theses. Still one bet on volume though.
