ADX 44.3 with a death cross just means the downtrend is old. i want a daily close over 0.04 before believing the BUY call on something 84% off its high
0.04 daily close already printed twice since this analysis went up. even an adx of 44 exhausts eventually
signal says BUY with HIGH conviction and the 2yr backtest did -37% with a -44.7% drawdown. and ppl wonder why nobody trusts signals anymore lmao
to be fair the backtest window includes the drop from 0.19 to 0.03, buy and hold got smoked harder. strategy losing less is kinda the whole point
-37% while the coin did -83% from the 0.19 high. i will take relative outperformance over vibes any day
-37 vs -83 is still bleeding, just slower. call me when the signal itself is green instead of less red
the backtest covers the 0.19 bleed so the -37% is the trend filter doing its job. judge it on the next six months, not the crash window
backtest window includes the whole bleed from 0.19, any long strategy loses there. -37% against -84% buy and hold is the only honest comparison
the -37% is vs a buy and hold that did -84% tho. signal still lost money, just way less. be skeptical but at least run the honest comparison
this is the take. minus 37 vs minus 84 is the filter earning its fee, ppl just see red and rage
ADX 44.3 on KAS is wild, that trend is strong. but death cross + MACD bear cross on the same chart? im waiting for the 50d to reclaim the 200d before touching this
reclaim already happened on the daily close last week tho, check the 3d chart. 0.04 resistance is the real gate here
death cross on something already down 84% from 0.19 is mostly lagging noise, you rarely get a second leg that size. the ADX 44.3 reading is the part that actually matters here
the 50d is miles under the 200d at these levels, you would wait a year for that cross. 0.04 flip or nothing imo
0.03 support holding with ATR at 6.5% a day is the only reason im not full degen on this. one strong daily candle and this moves on 0.04 fast
ATR of 6.5% cuts both ways though. one red daily candle and that 0.03 support is gone before you can react
6.5% daily ATR cuts the other way too, one red candle and that 0.03 support is a memory. half size until the 0.04 flip
half size is right. quarter until a daily close over 0.04, ADX 44 says when the move comes it comes fast
half size is generous with a 6.5 percent daily atr. quarter position and add over 0.04 or you are just donating to the market
a BUY rating at 0.03 with btc slipping under 77k is a bold call, respect it. if 0.04 breaks this goes fast and everyone suddenly remembers kaspa exists
BUY with high conviction on something 84 percent off with a death cross still printing. the 0.04 reclaim better come fast or this ages badly
0.04 printed twice since the call went up already. ghostdag handles throughput fine, the chart just tracks btc liquidity like every other pow alt
0.03 holding while btc chops under 77k is quietly the strongest signal on this chart. death cross on an 84 percent drawdown is old news
a 12k deployment on an asset 84 percent off its high takes guts. kas tx speed is real but it still follows btc liquidity like everything else
12k spread over tranches is less gutsy than it sounds tbh. worst case you hold some 0.03x bags, best case 0.04 flips and the fomo crew comes back
