10 bull factors and 0 bear on a token thats up 949% in a year. these systems always look genius at the top
Running 3% below the 52w high at 31.98 with RSI at 65.2 is fine, but the entry is already extended. The article admits R:R is 0.87. Thats paying full price.
Anders the backtest log had three straight losing trades in May and June before it caught the run. System needs the trend, not a better entry
0.87 R:R is brutal for a trend system, the whole edge is letting winners run. Marisol had it right, the constraint is the trend staying alive
0.87 R:R only survives if you never tighten the stop. the day this system starts honoring quick exits the 61 percent backtest is gone, trend following is just pain tolerance with a spreadsheet
0.87 R:R only fails if you tighten the stop. the whole system IS the pain tolerance, honoring quick exits would have exited during the 2.96 to 0.95 drawdown and missed the entire move
Agreed, the system is the drawdown tolerance. Every trend backtest looks like genius until your own 0.95 moment arrives mid position.
stop at 26 is -16% on a 3k position. id rather wait for a pullback to the 50d at 19.84 than eat that drawdown
lump sum turned 12k into 43k and ppl still dca lol
that lump sum also sat thru the 0.95 low tho. survivorship math is easy after a 949 percent run, try holding it in real time
survivorship math is still math tho, the system bought 2.96 and rode it. holding thru 0.95 was the price of the 949%, you dont get one without the other
43k on paper sure. stop sits at 26 so the whole ride is one -16% candle away from being a story about giving it all back
one -16 percent candle from giving it all back is just what 3x atr stops look like on a coin that moves 8 percent before lunch. size accordingly and the math survives
from 2.96 to 31 in a year and people still calling it late. ADX 31 with OBV rising, this is textbook stage 2
buying within 3% of the 52w high with RSI at 65? id rather wait for a pullback toward the 50d around 19.84, that chart is stretched
that backtest section is wild, +61% on the sept 10 sell at 25.88. system caught every leg, but 10 bull / 0 bear factors is exactly when i get nervous lol
10 bull 0 bear makes me nervous too but ADX 31 with OBV rising is literally the stage 2 checklist. bear factors are for tops with divergence, this aint it
same, 10 for 10 on bull factors is usually when backtests peak. still respect the 25.88 sept exit tho
31.03 with a 52w high of 31.98, entering here is buying the exact top of a 10x. system logic is fine, entry timing is the actual risk
stop at 26 on a token that ran 2.96 to 31 means one bad candle ends the story. half here and half at the 19.84 50d seems like the obvious sizing
but if it never retraces to 19.84 you hold half through a 40 percent air pocket. 3x atr stops punish both choices lol
half at entry half at the 19.84 pullback assumes the retest happens. stage 2 runs dont always hand you the 50d, sometimes its a 25 break or nothing
the 949 percent from 2.96 is survivorship theater. the same rules applied across all similar setups would include the ones that rode from 3 down to 0.95 and never came back. still a clean stage 2 read tho
fair point, but the may and june losing trades are in the log too. the rule is the rule across every setup, you just never hear about the coins that never came back
survivorship point is fair but the piece does print the may and june losers in the log. more honesty than most analysis articles give you
