kas up 52% in a month and entry quality says extended, R:R 0.79. chasing a 3x move with sub 1 risk reward is degen. wait for the pullback to 0.03 support
rsi 74.5 agrees with you but this ADX 47 trend has shredded shorts for two months. riding it with a trailing stop beats waiting imo
0.03 support gang. with R:R 0.79 the market already paid for this leg, no reason to fund someone else exit. let the fomo crowd chop around up there, my entry comes to me
agree on the 0.03 retest, but even then R:R 0.79 means your reward is smaller than your risk. only the 12 tranche schedule makes this tradeable at all
RSI at 74.5 and the signal is DEPLOY? KAS already did +52% this month, this is a chase not an entry
adx 47 trend is real tho. id just wait for a retest of 0.03 support instead of buying a 74 rsi lol
0.03 retest crew keeping me sane here. the piece itself flagged entry quality as extended, the banner just yelled DEPLOY anyway
0.03 support already held twice this month tho. and the DCA table averaged +17.6% across 12 tranches while lump sum lost 12%, you dont need to nail the top with a 10k split
rsi 74.5 + adx 47 combo is exactly when the melt continues and exactly when it rips your face off, no in between. i’d still rather long the 0.03 retest than buy a 52% candle
the 12 tranches only beat lump sum because the split bought the dips for you. the table did the work, not the coin, which is kind of your point
counterpoint, adx 47 trends rarely hand you the retest. half now, half at 0.03 is the boring compromise
half at market, half at 0.03 is how i run these ADX 47 trends. the 12 tranche table only beats lump sum if you actually respect the tranches
The DCA table is the whole article honestly. 12 buys at +17.6% while lump sum lost 12%, timing matters more than the signal.
12 buys averaging +17.6 is the only honest number in the piece. the signal is a vibe, the schedule did the work
aisha labeled this yield and staking focused then put 10k into a pow coin with -44.7% backtest drawdown. interesting portfolio theory
kas at 0.04 against a 52w high of 0.19, most of the damage is done already. tranche one only and let the 12 step schedule do the work
-44.7% backtest drawdown on a BUY rating is wild. imagine what the rating looks like on something it actually dislikes
Risk reward of 0.79 with a backtest drawdown at 44.7 percent. I like KAS long term but this entry math is just hope with extra steps.
Agreed on the hope with extra steps. An entry flagged as extended with R:R under 1 is the system telling you to wait for the 0.03 retest itself
the writeup itself flags entry as Extended and R:R 0.7, so at least it isnt hiding the chase. my issue is target 1 sitting at 0.00, someone fat fingered the take profit lol
lmao i missed the 0.00 target one on first read. maybe QA the take profit before the DEPLOY banner
the 0.00 take profit made it past editing AND the deploy banner, my brother in kas nobody qa checked this lol
a 0.00 take profit on a DEPLOY banner is wild. at least the entry quality column said Extended, the honesty saved it
0.00 take profit lmao. if QA missed that, what else slipped through the 12 tranche table. good catch tho, the honesty column saving a deploy banner is peak systems trading
0.04 against a 0.19 high and the whole debate is entry timing lol. the 44.7 percent backtest drawdown row is the most honest number on the page
