I talk about catalyst trading a lot, but it really is the best strategy for unknown/new traders Defined risk, you will know relatively quickly whether the trade is over, and it's pretty consistent Examples: Top blasting $ANSEM after Ansem started airdropping/tweeted to nuke the PVP to 0 Top blasting $ASTEROID after Elon said it would be the mascot of SpaceX Top blasting $CZ after CZ replied to that airdrop tweet

Catalyst trading is the second best way to make money if you're new to crypto It's one of the only strategies for untracked traders to have a solid edge onchain The best opportunities are rare, however the downside is clearly defined and its very consistently profitable

New pairs used to be the best way to make money if you just started crypto, but in the current market this is no longer the case Frontrunning and catalyst based trading are the best/most consistent ways to make money if you have a low portfolio now (Check QRT for more info on those) However, I do still think you should pay attention to new pairs since every runner starts as one. Just be careful with how much money you risk on them in the current market conditions

Too many people (myself included) freeze up or start fudding when a potential PVE coin spawns But the risk of being sidelined on PVE can actually be greater than the risk of having a position in it If you're scared, you don't need to size in. Even a small position is enough because if the thesis plays out, you'll still be thanking yourself for buying

ABS = Always be spending When I first started trading, I never spent my money I'd rather use spare cash to invest even more, but this ultimately left me overexposed when the market nuked Before I knew it, I roundtripped 80% of my portfolio by bagholding memecoins When I made the money back, I started spending profits on more than just DoorDash This made me appreciate the value of money and made it easier to take risks because, even if I lost the trade, I still had real life purchases and experience to show for the months I spent trading Discipline is important when it comes to spending, but always be sure to treat yourself and your family with at least a small portion of your profits (And also dedicate a bigger portion of your portfolio to security/long term investments, but that's for another post)

The biggest mistake I see new traders make is obsessing over PNL when they first get into crypto Crypto is not linear whatsoever, regardless of your experience level Some days you make nothing, other days you lose, and another day you make 6 figs There's no real pattern, so setting financial goals like "making $10k/mo" is useless Instead, you should focus on learning, improving your fundamentals, and becoming the greatest trader possible The opportunities and money will come, eventually, to those who stay consistent
