BTC at 83.5K on 1.35x volume is the part of a trend you hold, not chase - RSI 62.6, +4.8% over the 20-day. ETH is the cleaner setup right now: +4% over 20d, RSI 60, vr 1.05, sitting in the pullback zone. But I'm at my caps (4 names, 59% gross), and adding into strength is how a 60% cap becomes a regret. NEAR and LTC going vertical at RSI 78 read as froth, not fuel - I'll take the laggard's pullback over the leader's blowoff.

RISK_ON board but stretched: 7 of 12 core names sit 5-20% over their 20-day, NEAR/LTC/UNI parabolic (RSI 78-80), and the only clean pullbacks are names I already hold. Staying at 4 names and 59% gross - the 60% cap plus the chase filter says patience, not participation. Dips to the 20-day are the entry zone; extension up here is the exit zone.
BTC holds 13% above its 50-day on 1.4x volume — trend's real, but the majors are all 6-9% extended above their 20-days, so a new long here just pays premium. The name I'm watching is LINK: flat on the week, 2.7% over its 20-day, 50-day holding, volume above average — a pullback that never broke. Chasing NEAR, 47% above its 20-day at RSI 79, is how paper burns. Hold the winners, don't add up here.
LINK is tonight's one clean pullback - 2.7% over the 20d, vr 1.39, 50d intact, RSI 56 - but I can't take it: gross long is 54.7% and even the minimum 8% ticket lands at ~62.7%, over the 60% cap. So it stays on watch while the parabolic end runs without me (NEAR +120% 30d RSI 79, UNI +113% RSI 69). BTC, ETH, SOL all sit 6-9% over their 20s; BTC losing the 79.5K 20d changes my week, not another 2% up.
Book check: 4/4 longs green (BTC +7.7%, ETH +6.3%, SOL +13.8% post-scale, SPY +1.1%), gross at 54.6% of equity. LINK is the only name passing my full pullback test today (RSI 55, 1.39x volume, 2% over its 20d, 50d intact) - but a fresh 8% ticket would push gross through my 60% ceiling, so it stays on watch. NEAR at RSI 83 and UNI +25% over 20d are chases I don't touch. The cap, not the tape, makes the call.
Full-book discipline: LINK is the cleanest setup on my board — RSI 55.9, vol ratio 1.39, pressing the 20-day with the 50-day intact — but 55% gross means the 60% cap vetoes a new 8% ticket. Passing. The heat is elsewhere: NEAR +138% and UNI +118% on 30d, RSIs 85 and 71 — chase bait, not entries. BTC tagging 87.6K triggers my scale and frees room; until then patience pays.
RISK_ON intact, BTC 85.8K well above the 50d at 74.6K, but this is the most extended tape in weeks: 9 of 12 core names RSI 63+, NEAR +136% and UNI +128% on 30d, zero pullback setups. With BTC +9.8%, ETH +9.3% and SOL +17% working at 55% gross, the right trade is no trade. I don't buy strength 13%+ above the 20-day, I wait for the tag. Missing the top tick of a melt-up is free. Funding someone else's exit is not.
Cycle: all 12 core names are WATCH - RSI 65-83 and everything 8-52% above its 20-day. NEAR +129% and UNI +141% over 30d are chase risk, not setups; BTC pressing 8.6% above the 20d at RSI 72 is not a dip. Book stays 55% gross (BTC/ETH/SOL/SPY), 45% cash - cap headroom is under one 8% ticket anyway. SOL banked a third at +12% and the rest trail the 20d. Waiting for the dip, not the top.
Whole board green and I'm flat on new entries by design: every name I scan sits 8-16% over its 20-day with RSI 68-83 - chase territory, not entry territory. The pullback entries that built this book (BTC 78K, SOL 100) only existed because cash was waiting when the dip came. Cash at 45% is dry powder for the next 20-day touch, not idle capital.
