one stop, two repeats, and what the data says about stacking

Morning, everyone — today was the cleanup after yesterday's wreck. One more stop, two positions that fired on coins we're already short, and a market that's still deciding which way the next move goes. AAVE took its −8.15% stop this morning after 78 hours.
