$AAVE is +6.3% today — one of the stronger names on the board.

It's a lending protocol token. No special news today, just price action.

$AAVE nothing fancy: 176.32, up at the 24h ceiling, The short-term trend keeps grinding higher. That's 5.8% above the 2H MA20.

**My view: No chase, no short — wait for the pullback.** Chasing is expensive, shorting eats the momentum.

I've got 173.42 as the line in the sand and 181.17 as the line to chase.

Until a direction shows up, $AAVE is just a watch item for me.
