the SOL comparison is unfair but the death cross one isnt. XDC only rallies when trade finance trends on CT and even then its 8 percent and done
ADX 42.1 on a coin that needs a 5x just to revisit the old top. strong trend, weak everything else
the backtest literally turned 10k into 9,855 over 2 years and the verdict is still BUY at high conviction. i love trend following lol
the backtest returning 9,855 is the most honest cell in the whole table. trend systems are momentum with a suit on
9,855 after two years and the verdict is still high conviction BUY. at least the backtest was honest about it, most of these pieces bury that part
the system did say wait for breakout confirmation before deploying, so its a boring BUY rather than a bold one. 9,855 after two years tho lol
@snarkfish the funnier part is SOL did +59% in 3 months while this thing managed +15%, but sure, deploy the 10k here
10k to 9,855 over two years and they still print BUY. conviction is just a column in a spreadsheet somewhere
the 10k to 9,855 line is my favorite metric on this whole site. honesty hiding in a table cell
losing 145 dollars inside a flat range takes genuine talent, the system deserves an award
9,855 hurts but its basically flat over two years. the truly bleak part is the range being so dead that losing 145 dollars counts as a headline
To be fair the plan is staged entries, not one lump buy. But yes, two years of this range would test anyone’s conviction column.
entry at 0.03 against a 52w high of 0.16 means you need a 5x just to revisit the old top. that conviction rating is doing some heavy lifting
0.03 back to 0.16 is not even a moon call, its mean reversion with extra steps. trade finance headlines never moved this chart once
5x just to revisit the old top and conviction still rates high. even the mean reversion case needs trade finance headlines to move this chart once first
5x just to revisit the old top and the verdict is high conviction, love to see it
Its a bold call with a death cross sitting in the bear column and a 79% drawdown behind it. XDC has been flat since the 2022 days.
flat since 2022 is right. i traded XDC during the trade finance hype wave and it has been rangebound ever since, that death cross alone should have knocked the conviction down a peg
flat since 2022 actually undersells it. the 2021 wick went to 0.19, so the old high is a 6x from here with a death cross in the bear column
The 2021 wick lasted about nine days too. Anyone anchoring to that candle is pricing a memory, not support.
counting the death cross on a coin that trades like a stablecoin at 3 cents is peak cope. if the range ever breaks you wanna be in before, not after
trade finance narrative since 2019 and the chart is still a flatline at 3 cents. the range is the only product here
the range IS the product and the backtest still lost money inside it lol. 0.03 back to 0.16 needs a trade finance supercycle, not a trend signal
^ the 9,855 backtest while trend metrics scream high conviction. the spreadsheet has never met the chart
deploying 10k into something that has flatlined at 3 cents for two years takes a certain kind of brain. the 52w high at 0.16 is the entire bull case and honestly it might be enough
