AAVE broke $125 while DeFi is supposedly dead. +15% in a week on 2x volume - the smart money is rotating back to DeFi blue chips.

From $105 to $129 and now consolidating at $125.5, AAVE is leading the DeFi resurgence. The 4H RSI at 79 is hot but not extreme, and the MACD histogram on both 4H and daily is expanding - this is trend acceleration, not a blow-off.

Why This Trade?
DeFi + RWA (Real World Assets) is the narrative. AAVE is the DeFi lending king with real revenue and a buyback mechanism. The breakout above the 99-day SMA ($87) was the first signal; the follow-through to $129 confirmed it. Price is now above ALL major moving averages on every timeframe. That is what a strong trend looks like.

Trade Plan:
- Entry: $118 - $125 (buy consolidation near highs)
- Stop Loss: $108 (below the breakout pivot)
- TP1: $129 (retest) | TP2: $140 (measured move)
- Risk/Reward: 0.6R - lower R but high probability continuation

DeFi summer 2.0? Maybe. But trade the chart, not the hope.

Is DeFi having its comeback moment or is this a bull trap? What do you think?
