# How to correctly explain the current price action in a trading chart with the Hurst Exponent found?

I watched this video tutorial to learn how to estimate the Hurst Exponent using an Excel spreadsheet and a time series sample of 1025 data.

I decided to use futures 1H markPriceKlines data from Binance Market Data to play around with those. I set:

• The Start Date as: January 2nd 2022 and the End Date as: February 13th 2022 for every trading pair
• ADAUSDT, BTCUSDT, SOLUSDT, XRPUSDT as the group of trading pairs to analyze with the Hurst exponent
• 1H Timeframe for every trading pair
• 1025 data in every single one of the time series of the trading pairs

My findings as well as the data I used can be found here if needed.

What I found was that:

• All of the trading pairs got a Hurst Exponent around 0.62

When

the time series used is a trending (persistent) series. In practice, it means that a high value is followed by a higher one.

So, here's where I get lost, when I look at the charts of those trading pairs all of them had a pump in the coming weeks subsequent to the time series I used before dumping even more lower than the prices of my time series in the end:

Does the above mean that I should consider opening short positions for these trading pairs when I get a Hurst Exponent greater than 0.5 and also its prices come from top to the bottom? Or did I miss something when interpreting my results from the Excel spreadsheet?

Feedback is appreciated.
