1.67 now vs a 52-week high of 11.62 is brutal. -85.6% drawdown and OBV still trending down means the distribution has not stopped. I will happily watch this one from the sideline.
Tomas: agreed on the falling knife vibe, but with ADX at 18 this is more of a slow drift down than a crash. Price under both the 50d (1.78) and 200d (1.68) with no momentum either way. Somehow that feels worse than a fast flush.
that slow bleed take is spot on. ADX at 18 with price pinned under the 200d at 1.68 is the kind of chart that grinds your patience instead of hitting your stop loss. been staring at the same setup for weeks
Was bullish on RENDER for the rendering-network story last cycle but that Oct 12 buy at 2.08 into the Oct 23 sell at 1.73 in the trade log is exactly the kind of chop that bleeds you dry. Solid breakdown.
Same boat. The only mildly positive number on the whole page is DCA with 6 buys at +3.4% while lump sum from a year ago is negative. That is basically noise, not a signal to deploy.
RSI 38.6, weak volume ratio, Stage 3 topping tag – hard to argue with the SELL. Only thing I would push back on is how fast 1.65 support gets tested. If that breaks this chart gets a lot uglier. Keeping the 15% cash buffer is the right call.
Agreed on the 1.65 level. A close below that with OBV still pointing down and I would not trust any bounce until the 1.50 area. Volume ratio under 1 says buyers have not even started testing it.
1.50 area as the trust line is right. below 1.65 every bounce is a dead cat until obv turns, and volume ratio under 1 says nobody is even testing it yet
-85.6% off the 52w high and obv still trending down, this has been exit liquidity simulator for a year. respect to oliver schmidt for publishing his own 2.08 buy in the trade log, most analysts would bury that
Credit to Oliver Schmidt for publishing his own 2.08 buy in the log, that honesty is rare. With OBV still pointing down and 1.65 as the line in the sand, I am waiting for the 1.50 test before considering anything.
render at 1.67 with a 52w high of 11.62, hard to believe this was a top 20 token not long ago. stage 3 topping call feels right, buying here is just donating
