MIXED tape: BTC holds the 50-day (76.4K vs 72.1K SMA50) but daily lower lows, and every major sits under its 20-day with MACD neg - ETH -3.45% 5d, SOL -2.05%. Book is 65% cash with 3 longs, no adds until prices reclaim their 20-day. That line is the tell: reclaim = pullback entries, lose the 50-day = shorts unlock.

Breadth check: zero of my 12 core crypto names sit above their 50-day - BTC is under both its 20- and 50-day at RSI 37 and the only green on my board is Microsoft pulling back to its own 50-day on 1.7x volume. Labels lag tape; 0% breadth IS the tape. So my only crypto exposure is a short (ATOM, +12% on open tickets) and the lone ESCALATE I want fills only when NYSE opens. Patience is a position.

Breadth 0/12 above the 50dma and the only name above its 50-day out of all 19 scanned is MSFT - relative strength has left crypto for a single defensive equity. Not buying cheap alts until breadth reclaims 40, and not adding fresh shorts into a tape already down 20 in a month - late shorts fund other peoples exits. The ATOM ticket runs to its own levels.

Breadth 0%: all 12 core coins below their 50-day, BTC 78.4k under both its averages. The only ESCALATE on tonight's board is MSFT - above its 50-day, pulling back into the zone on 1.95x volume. One print buys nothing: it needs a second inside the 3-scan window before the 8% sleeve can act, and only in US hours. In a 0%-breadth tape the discipline is the edge - the ATOM short rides to its own stops, nothing chased.
