Read all of that carefully, then read it again.
Got much work to do on myself 🫡
Mental and technical characteristics
Whats helped me over the years is constantly mapping my mental and technical performance per trade over the years...
Its one part of the journaling process - for those that assume journaling is post trade - for me its pre trade, during trade lifecyle and post trade...
30-40K is giving me the same vibes as the 10-12K calls last cycle.
It became the consensus view, but it never happened.
So forgive me if I'm 10% early. I was about 10% early calling the top at 112K $BTC, and that still worked out in the end.
A lot of what I do today comes from mistakes I've made in the past. Mistakes that cost me a lot of money, mistakes I have no intention of repeating.
A lot of people criticize my trading style. They criticize the gradual TWAP entries. They criticize what they see as an "unreasonable" stop loss. The reality is that most of them simply don't understand the mathematics behind how I trade.
I use low leverage. I position myself accordingly and calculate the statistical probability of certain price levels being hit, using leverage as my invalidation point. I'm not a gambler, I'm a compounder.
I'm here to make money. I don't care about quick gains, and I don't care about the reckless trading people engage in for clicks and attention. I try to position myself the same way institutions and hedge funds do.
Slowly, gradually, with low leverage, and only when the RR is significantly in my favour.
I think a lot of people underestimate how much wealth can be built through compounding over a long period of time because they're constantly chasing fast gains.
The reality is that wealth is built over years, not weeks.
The longer you stay in the game, the more disciplined and patient you are, the more money tends to follow.
It's easy to develop a distorted perception of trading with the amount of crap you see on this app. People posting outrageous gains, bragging, and chasing engagement.
But they'll never show you the losses.
If that temporary ego boost gives you satisfaction, great. For me, not so much.
So, simply put, I'm here to make money, whether it's fast or slow.
If you don't like my passive approach, I couldn't care less. This is how the biggest players in the world operate. You can either position alongside them or against them.
I choose to play with them.
“Everyone is looking at the same thing.”
Who exactly is “everyone”?
There’s something important to understand here. People throw around the word “everyone” to sound insightful, like they’re outsmarting the crowd by second guessing what “the masses” are doing. In reality, 99% of what gets posted on this app is just noise.
Just because a scenario is widely discussed doesn’t automatically make it wrong. TA is TA. And hindsight is a b*tch. This cycle, everyone second guessed the obvious scenario and tried to outplay the market narrative, all of them were wrong. Why? Because they focused more on outsmarting the crowd than reading the chart.
Here’s the truth: I don’t care what anyone posts. Never have, never will. I care about my plan, my analysis, my observations. Everything else is background noise. It might come off as arrogant, but it’s not ego, it’s discipline. That’s basic trading fundamentals: stick to your plan.
So when you say “everyone is expecting the same thing,” you’re really talking about a tiny fraction of people on X, probably less than 5% of actual BTC volume. The real size operates quietly. Institutions, funds, advanced algos. they’re watching volume, liquidity, order flow, depth, risk/reward. They’re not scrolling timelines for validation.
They don’t care what you think. And neither should you. Avoid the noise. $BTC
Cancelled my X premium subscription, not worth it for me atm as I'm not trying to become a creator currently
Recently started concentrating on $BTC only and while at it I fell in love with hedge positioning in the current top region. Playing it safe

Life becomes much easier when you take your trade, set your stop loss, and walk away.
Risk is fixed. No overexposure. Just following your plan. Calm, disciplined, emotion free.
That’s exactly how it should be. Perfect the art of staying emotionless & you will outperform.

Often see traders showcasing impressive PnL figures, and while that’s great to see, the sustainability behind those numbers is what really matters.
If the path to those returns comes with wild equity swings or deep drawdowns, it’s only a matter of time before a few large losses wipe out the progress. I’ve been there before, and it’s not a place you want to stay.
Personally, I’d rather aim for controlled drawdowns, steady equity curve growth, and consistency over swinging for the fences.
Even when it comes to scaling into winners, the ability to size up while maintaining low risk can have a far greater and more sustainable impact on long-term PnL than chasing high volatility results.
For context, if I doubled my account but experienced a 40% drawdown in the process, I wouldn’t consider that a successful outcome. It’s not just about how much you make it’s how you make it that defines longevity in this game.
Compounding is very impactful, but have to put in the slow steady hard strides first which takes real commitment, dedication and above all a well tuned process.
You cant size up randomness.
Sold all week old crash spot buys yesterday in slight profit, $TAO 45% gain. Now waiting mode, sidelined but bearish thoughts..
