Today's read, in plain English

What's working: price sits above its rising 20- and 50-day averages; the weekly trend gate is open (weekly close above its 10-week average); RSI sits in the healthy 50–72 trend band. What's missing: the 50-day average is still flat or falling; the latest pullback undercut the prior low; it is lagging Bitcoin over the last 90 days. Momentum context: RSI(14) is at 70 with positive MACD. The breakout trigger sits at $75.21, about 1.8% above the last close.

The 10-component rubric

What's working (7)

  • ✓price sits above its rising 20- and 50-day averages+3
  • ✓the weekly trend gate is open (weekly close above its 10-week average)+3
  • ✓RSI sits in the healthy 50–72 trend band+2
  • ✓up-days carry more volume than down-days+2
  • ✓the latest swing high broke above the prior one+1
  • ✓MACD momentum is on the positive side+1
  • ✓price is within 3% of its breakout trigger+1

What's missing (3)

  • ✗the 50-day average is still flat or falling+3 missed
  • ✗the latest pullback undercut the prior low+2 missed
  • ✗it is lagging Bitcoin over the last 90 days+2 missed

Each component is weighted by how much it historically improved forward returns; the weights sum to 20. The full methodology — including what we tested and rejected — is public on the daily read.

What would change our answer

  • → the 50-day average itself is sloping upward
  • → pullbacks are bottoming higher than the last one
  • → it is outperforming Bitcoin over the last 90 days

The map behind the pair

Each square is one fast/slow combination, coloured by what it returned per year holding QNT only while its fast average was above its slow one. The chart on the left is the white square, traded for real — every whipsaw included. A fast average this short is classic noise-chasing — expect far less out of sample.

Honest math: 97 round trips at 0.2% fees per side turns ×3.5 into ×2.4 — still ahead of buy & hold's ×0.6. Right now the rule is long (since 2026-09-21). This is an educational backtest, not a strategy we sell — our product's regime gate works on the same principle, one deliberately slow pair, validated out of sample.

Every trade the rule made — 97 round trips, newest first
