the 170 retest crowd is right to wait. 9.3% off the high means nothing in QNT terms, this thing gaps more than that on a single exchange rumor
HOLD on a -9.3% day takes guts. 10 bull factors and ADX 41.9 i get it, but the death cross was flashing before this dump and everyone ignored it
death cross is lagging tho, price is still above the 200d. the OBV accumulation and vol ratio at 14.62 tell the better story here
stopped trading crosses years ago, by the time one prints the move is already done. 174 vs the 192 high says the trend guys got chopped
10.44x volume on an up day but the daily candle prints -9.3%. that smells like distribution into strength not accumulation tbh
10 bull factors vs 1 bear and the verdict is still WAIT lmao. thats QNT in a nutshell, always ticking up and never the exciting one
10 to 1 bull factors and a WAIT verdict is just quant maxis respecting the illiquidity. weekend QNT moves 5% on three candles
@overledger_og thats literally why i hold it. boring is the feature. been stacking since it was under 100 and slept fine the whole time
9.3% off the 192 high and they call it Stage 2 uptrend? The trend-following logic checks out but I would wait for a retest of support near 170 before deploying anything
170 retest crew checking in. QNT weekend candles are thin enough that the 192 high is one rumor away either direction, staging the 30k across levels beats guessing the wick
HOLD at 174 feels right. the 30k deployment plan being staged instead of all-in is the only sane way to play something this illiquid on the weekends
