641 times (Jan 2024-Sep 2026), a Binance spot coin closed a day up 30%+.
30 days later, 74% of them were lower.
Buy that green close, and the median result was -22.3%.
Bad market? Partly. A random day's median 30-day return: -6.2%.
Mar 2, 2025: Trump named $ADA in his US crypto reserve plan. ADA closed +72% at 1.135. Next day 0.858. By Apr 1: 0.677, down 40%.
Waiting a day helped a bit: 68% closed lower next day. Buying that close still left a -16.3% median a month later.
Yes, 12.9% ended 20%+ higher. That rare win keeps people chasing. Delisted coins aren't in this data, so reality is likely worse.
Before you chase a green candle:
1. No entry on the +30% day
2. Waiting isn't a buy signal. You need a level and a reason
3. Still buying? Risk max 1% of capital, SL set before you click
