Three straight green hours from $8.53 on rising volume, then an upper wick to $9.047 this hour. From what I've seen, when a crowded long meets the 4h upper band, the next hour or two tells you if buyers still have fuel.

**Recap ($AAVE, 13:50):** The short needed a 1h close below $138.64. The 13:00 hour closed $139.66 and the open 14:00 hour low is $138.67. **Not triggered**, stop $141.60 untouched, no position.

**$AVAX now**

- $8.934, +4.8% 24h. 24h range $8.396–$9.047.

- 1h RSI 78, above the 1h upper band ($8.86). 4h upper band $8.95. 1d RSI 43, daily MACD still below signal.

- Funding +0.0100%, **82nd percentile** of its last 90.

- OI 8.71M to 9.05M AVAX (+3.9%, 24h).

- Top traders 2.22 long, all accounts 1.62 long. Taker buy/sell 0.96 last hour, after 1.11 the hour before.

**Call: short only on confirmed rejection.**

- **Stop $9.10** (above the $9.047 high)

- **Trigger:** 1h close below $8.86 (back inside the 1h band)

- TP1 $8.60 (1h mid band) · TP2 $8.52 (10:00 low)

A 1h close above $9.05 kills this and opens the $9.17 area instead.

**Rejection under $9 or breakout toward $9.20? Drop your call below.**
