So, we've got a buy box on GMX between $20 and $24. 

This is a price range where we've noticed that momentum to the downside has started to slow down. 

If we look at some of the swings GMX has made to the downside, they've actually been decreasing over time, which is a good sign. April 17th, 2023: 

We set a swing high around $90. September 4th, 2023: We then dropped to $30, a 67% retracement. Next Swing: We went from $30 to $60, a solid 100% increase. From here, we then dropped from $60 down to $25, a 60% decrease. 

Recent moves

The following swing from $46 dropped about 50%. The key thing here is that the downside swings are actually getting smaller. They're not expanding to the downside as aggressively.

Educational insight: The Crocodile's Mouth

Here's a bit of an educational nugget for you. 

If a trend is continuing with strong momentum to the upside, the channel or diagonal levels of support and resistance will be wide open, like a crocodile's mouth when it's wide open. 

But if the trend is slowing down, it starts forming a triangle, like the crocodile's mouth closing. This descending triangle pattern we're seeing here suggests that momentum to the downside is slowing, and demand is holding up at higher prices as we move down. 

Now, we've actually flattened out a bit and found support around the $25 and $20 price points, which is why we've placed our buy box there.

Playbook 

Hypothesis

The retracement to $20-$24 offers a prime accumulation opportunity with a potential 360% return if GMX revisits all-time highs. The downside momentum is slowing, and support is strong in this range. 

Risk management

This is a spot buy strategy—no leverage. Allocate only what you're comfortable holding long-term, as this is a position play, not a quick trade. 

The play

 Accumulate GMX in the $20-$24 buy box. Focus on building a spot position with an eye on the long-term upside.

Cryptonary's take 

 GMX has flattened out and is finding support around the $25 and $20 levels. This consolidation supports our decision to place a buy box within this range, as it aligns with the observed slowing down in downward momentum and price stability.
