10 bull factors and 0 bear, sure, but RSI at 72.9 while buying a pullback? thats chasing strength near the 1521 high imo
ZEC from 376 to 1488 in a year and nobody in mainstream finance talks about it. privacy coins quietly ate this cycle
aggressive AND contrarian AND deep value all at once lol pick one
1488 from 376 in a year and finance media still ignores it. agreed, privacy quietly ate this cycle
@Ravi trend following systems buy high RSI, thats literally the point. ADX 55 means the trend is strong, waiting for RSI 40 here means missing the move entirely
torben nailed it. ADX 55 with 10 bull factors and zero bear, the system is doing exactly what it was built for
2.2% below the 1521 high with RSI near 73, this entry is basically chasing. trend is real but so is the pullback risk
