Narratives don't die instantly. They fade slowly while most people are still holding the bags of the last one. When coins start going from outperformance and relative strength to the opposite, it is often a reason to reassess the thesis.

The old narrative dies in relative strength first, not in a single red candle. When the leaders start lagging $BTC the thesis is already leaking. Bags stay heavy because the story still sounds good after the outperformance is gone. That is when you reassess, not after the last believer sells

A coin can still be rising in dollars while losing ground to its benchmark. That makes the shift from leader to laggard easy to miss if the review only looks at the USD chart.

they don't fade, they get brutally murdered and left in a ditch.

Relative-strength deterioration is an early warning only when structure and spot flows confirm it. Recovering leadership after a controlled retest would invalidate the fading-narrative signal. #ZoneTrendPRO

Most people holding bags is not proof the narrative is fading It is often the reason they refuse to see it fading

True. The fade is often the trickiest part. Watching relative strength flip is key to catching the exit.

Narratives can survive on social media way longer than they survive on the chart.
