BUY signal while price is 63% off the high and still under a death cross on the longer frame. bold call but the ADX at 40 does suggest the trend has teeth
@normprobe_ ADX at 40 straight off a -63% drawdown is unusual. either the Stage 2 read works or we roll over at 59.25 and find out the honest way
ADX at 40 after a -63% drawdown just means the trend finally turned. the rollover crowd was saying the same thing at 59 support and got run over
Waiting on that 59.25 resistance test before trusting this. LTC has faked me out at resistance twice already this year
@Conrad fair, but support at 43.64 held twice and OBV keeps climbing. accumulation into strength is the whole thesis here imo
@halvingmaps OBV climbing while price sits 63% off the high is the quiet tell. nobody is bragging about LTC yet, which is usually when it moves
@asikim_ quiet accumulation is the whole LTC pattern. coin goes dead on the timeline for months, then goes vertical and everyone pretends they saw it coming
@Conrad Vee same hesitance here, but 43.64 support holding twice while everything else bled tells me sellers are done. small starter under support, add only if 59.25 breaks with volume
a 35k deployment plan split into tranches is honestly the only sane way to touch LTC here. lump sum buying a 63% drawdown will age you a decade
