In previous posts we established that losing in sideways is normal. But the main question everyone asks is: "How long do I wait? When will the bots recover?"
❗️The answer — faster than you think.
📈 One trend month covers months of sideways
👀 Look at LINX. In late 2023 it had some tough months. But once a trend started, capital recovered instantly.
🔹 October 2023: –20.6% (sideways)
🔹 November 2023: +45.8% (trend)
📌 Bottom line: drawdown recovered in one month.
🔹 April 2024: –18.4% (sideways)
🔹 May 2024: +12.5% (trend begins)
🔹 August 2024: +22.3% (trend continues)
📌 Bottom line: full recovery in 3–4 months.
🔥The most striking example — SPARK. In July 2024, SPARK dropped –50.7%. Looks scary? Keep watching:
🔹 August 2024: +67.9%
🔹 October 2024: +87.5%
💡 Conclusion: even deep drawdowns (up to –70% for SPARK) have been more than recovered historically. Because trends always come. It's just a matter of time.
📊 Why does this happen?
Our algorithms are 90% trend‑following. In sideways they don't earn — that's true. But when a move begins, they build positions and "ride" the trend till the end. The speed of capital recovery during such moments is exponential.
🎯 The golden rule:
If you wait through sideways with the bots, the trend returns everything — with interest. If you exit, you lock in the loss and miss the chance to recover.
