ASTS Journey (May 2024 → May 2026)AST SpaceMobile, Inc. Class ABATS:ASTSTradeSentinelAppThere are many different ways to trade successfully. TradeSentinel focuses on trend and momentum which can be applied by retail traders with limited time and effort. This chart takes the reader through the approach. In the context of retail trading some "opinions" from the author. You may or may not agree which is fine. We are all here for the same purpose: earning at the stock market. There is no need to forecast prices. Listen to the data and structure. Manage your risk - this is the only(!) thing you control in trading and investing. This annotated daily chart tells the complete story of ASTS from first launch candidate to parabolic runner and fresh signal. May 2024 vertical line (left side): First clean launch setup. Relative strength turned green and supportive, volume spiked, and the SMAs started lining up and stacking — exactly the multi-signal alignment we look for. August 2024 vertical line: Relative strength flipped red (first warning), but the moving averages kept stacking and volatility remained high but was already easing. Still constructive, just needed patience. Early 2025 vertical lines (center): The “chop and dead money” phase. No persistent relative strength, SMAs compressed tightly, and volatility swung from normal to extreme. Price went nowhere for months — classic distribution / dead-money environment with zero edge. June 2025 vertical line: The game-changer. A powerful new launch ignited with relative strength returning green and SMAs stacking beautifully again. This alignment triggered the massive parabolic move from the mid-$20s all the way above $100. Late 2025 to today was characterized by phases where RS turned negative, SMA20 turned down. Not a clean trend but mostly staying above the SMA150. For a longer investment horizon this level (or a SMA200) woudl have kept you in the race. Mid April was a breakdown of the structure and calle for an exit. Today we see a repair attempt of the structure. Key takeaway from the full annotated journey: ASTS rewards patience through the dead-money chop (whether you hold or wait for your entry) phases and delivers explosive moves precisely when the multi-signal cluster (Relative Strength + SMA stack) turns green. The current structure is healthy, with the rising SMA cluster providing dynamic support on dips. This is exactly the kind of setup the annotations were built to highlight — clean launches after proven alignment, not during compression or failed RS. State of "today": INSGHT - Powerful surge: 3M high, Price above all SMAs, relative strength present, High volatility regime, SMA structure not clean yet and price is extended. TAKEAWAY - Mixed bag of individual signals. Price needs to hold, SMA structure improve and volatility ease for clear setup.
