a SELL on a gold token is a first for me. 6 of 7 factors red dont lie tho, below both averages at 4344
first SELL ive seen on XAUT too, but 6 of 7 red below both averages at 4344 is pretty unambiguous. topping stage aint a buy the dip stage
1.46% daily ATR is basically flat, thats why conviction is high. no volatility, no reason to deploy
1.46% daily ATR on a high conviction SELL is funny. system says run but also theres nothing to run from lol
6 of 7 factors red at 4344 and barely any ATR to trade around. closing it is the only rational move here
bought near the 5597 top, still down 20% on my XAUT. lesson learned, even gold punishes chasing
same boat marguerite, except i averaged down at 4800 like a genius. taking the L on this one
down 20% from the 5597 top while spot gold flexes on X. chasing tops hurts even when the asset is gold
Elena parking the 12k somewhere else while XAUT chops below both averages is just opportunity cost math. weakest thesis gets cut first
