Trend-following methodology: 50d/200d MA crossover + RSI filter + ADX regime gate

buy signal on something down 64% with MACD still red is wild. system says 7 bull factors but that far-below-high bear flag is the one that matters imo
counterpoint: last time the 50d crossed up on this thing it ran toward 15. you dont need MACD green at the bottom, you need it confirming later
The accumulation read is what does it for me. OBV up with volume ratio 1.2 while price sits at 5.46, someone is quietly loading. Golden cross helps too.
^ quietly loading is exactly the vibe. RSI 57.7 also leaves room before its overbought
Stage 2 uptrend on something still 64% off its 52w high of 15.35, bold framing. RSI at 57.7 is healthy but resistance sits at 5.49 and price is 5.46. Three cents of room before the test.
three cents under resistance and the system still front runs its own entry lol. at least the stop logic is honest about it
the backtest log is just buy 5.45 sell 545 eight times in a row through august. system went flat for two weeks and still calls this HIGH conviction lol
flat for two weeks on a stablecoin strat is fine actually. the edge is the carry not the candles, HIGH conviction is about the deployment math
Honestly the Aug entries roundtripping 5.44-5.45 nonstop sum up the whole move. I want a clean break and hold above 5.49 before adding past the first tranche.
same, first tranche at 5.45 and nothing more until a close above 5.49 with actual volume. three cents of resistance means zero otherwise
