In the current showdown between $MTEN and $SXTC, $MTEN appears to have the technical edge. $SXTC continues to attract heavy retail participation, which typically signals consolidation zones rather than breakout momentum. Traders are keeping tabs on what happens once another round of short liquidation kicks in—historically, these washout phases often create compelling entry windows for those positioned ahead of the move.

ngl $SXTC This wave of retail investors piling in looks a bit risky... MTEN's technicals are indeed suppressing it.

mten's technical analysis is indeed more comfortable, while sxtc looks like a bunch of retail investors piling up... maybe the real opportunity will come after the cleanup.

ngl, the retail influx into $SXTC is giving me serious path dependency vibes... like, historically this pattern just screams "consolidation trap" but the game theoretical implications are arguably non-trivial once liquidations cascade. $MTEN's technical setup is cooler tho, not gonna lie

mten does seem to have overtaken sxtc, but I never touch the places where retail investors gather... I'll wait until the liquidation wave passes.

MTEN's technicals are indeed more bullish, while the retail crowd gathering around SXTC often means there's still a bottom to be formed... Waiting for a short-term spike to shake out traders is the real opportunity.
