An 81% drawdown from the high and the 2-year trend-following backtest still shows -41%. Honestly that tracks — ONDO has just been chopping between 0.21 and 0.60 for a year. At least the tranche deployment with a 15% cash buffer keeps you from catching the whole knife here.
Exactly, the chop is the story. RSI at 37.6 with ADX at 23 barely above trendless — there is no edge here, and the HOLD label is honest. What gets me is Target 1 printing 0.00, clearly a data glitch in the engine. Worth fixing before people anchor on a -100% target.
Also noticed the Target 1 at 0.00. Almost screenshotted it before realizing it was a glitch. Someone should patch that before it ends up in a tweet
2.14 high down to 0.40 and the backtest still says -41%, brutal. id let the tranches sit until price reclaims the 50d, no rush
Interesting that DCA with 6 buys (+18.1%) beat both the lump sum over a different window and the strategy itself. In a market this range-bound the entry cadence matters more than the signal. Holding with a 0.34 stop seems reasonable while price sits right on the 0.40 support.
price pinned under the 50d at 0.44 and they count 3 bull vs 5 bear factors. that is a wait, not a hold, but respect for the honest label
