How do you think Bitcoin does over the holidays? I analyzed 7.35 million minutes of price action since 2012 to answer this historically
I'm a sucker for statistics and data, so I thought I'll look into what Crypto (Bitcoin, but that's pretty good indicator of what the rest of the market does these days) does during the holidays. Simple, obvious inefficiencies are things like Renaissance Technologies took advantage of, or in other industries, …
BTC Is Easy to Hold, Hard to Trade
I’ve noticed something interesting from my trading journey: BTC feels like a great store of value but a terrible instrument to trade. When I started small, I traded coins like $DOGE, $NOT, and other low-cap alts. As my capital grew, I moved to mid-cap coins like $SOL. Recently, I tried …
What tools do you use? Anybody using Nansen?
Hey guys, I have used Nansen in the past. Back in the day they would offer a discord community for all subscription holders (that was where the real alpha was... not the platform unfortunately).

# I’ve been trading for 5 years. I’ve **never blown an account**. Sounds like a flex? Far from it. Here’s the truth: I’ve also **never been able to keep an account alive**. Why? Because life had other plans. Bills, rent, unexpected expenses — I was **forced to take out everything**: …
How’s everyone’s portfolio look?
This is my trading portfolio where I position trade coins and different than my investing portfolio where I DCA into each week. How’s everyone else look during this flush out?

In the spirit of systematic trading, I want to share a mindset shift that's been crucial for me: **Treat every trade's risk as if it's already a loss.** Why? Because even with the best strategy, the market has randomness. Accepting the risk upfront helps you detach emotionally. The money you …
