shorted btc

it was only half a milly just two weeks ago still haven’t had any significant drawdown, should i keep playing ?

few tips on how to knife catching based on personal experience - create a separate acc that only trades during big red days or liquidation cascades - mark key levels (ex: PDL, PWL) where you think the price might have a mechanical bounce - when the price approaches your

thought process behind my HYPE short thesis: HYPE will stall at 45 round-number ceiling started punting at 44.8 and added aggressively when price pushed into the 45. upward momentum will persist as long as late longs are being rewarded, once this shift, the same driving force

this is my 6th year going solo as trader if you were truly willing to learn, you wouldn’t have tweeted this, it’s just an excuse go fuck around and find out yourself nerds, create your own edge, sounds harsh but its better that way

despite $doge underperforming compared to majors like btc and eth last week, I still believe this old doggo has a shot at outperforming in the near term if we’re heading into a mini altszn in fact, if you look at the price action between 03:25 and 03:35 AM (UTC+7), doge actually

fck it shorted price discovery

will try to write my thought process behind this trades tomorrow

today’s short on alpaca - got notif on tg about alpaca short squeeze, check the chart, patiently waiting for price to tag key level and start punting short once the price tagged short reason: price imbalance wasn’t came from healthy bids, s/r key level and deviation from avwap

my turning point was in oct 2023. tried to short the fake ETF approval news, held that losing position way too long and ended up losing almost half of my nw at the time i revenge traded hard on the way up, that moment ended up marking the beginning of my 4-7 fig degen run

fllowed u since early 2024, i wonder what’s ur turning point and what makes u kept going to keep taking massive risk like that ? i always respect ur straightforward call and ur balls, ride or die typa shit

to sum up june gambling strategy - only traded during extreme price deviations, especially around physiological round number floors and ceilings - bet moarr for EV+ setup (this is personal, we might have different EV for the same setup) - trigger was mostly when a retard got

- got bored, randomly checked alts tape - saw some familiar traits on the taker flow “wait i’ve seen this movie before, this is code whipsaw.exe and those sell walls were about to get cleared - start punting everything on my watchlist - tweeted 5 minutes later - punted even more

someone issa trying to frontrun code whipsaw.exe on this alt hmm ze tape getting juicier or am i look at it wrong ?

congrats, you just missed one of the quickest v shaped bounces because you were too pussy to press the green button grow some balls next time

the reason why i rarely do business in the middle be patient and play the extremes, take the money from the weak hands, the forced participants, the offisidoors, no need to rush

DON’T KNOW

still holding full size long, i refused to give my good entry they shan’t shake me

someone once said, liquidation are a forced transfer of wealth from overleveraged dumb trader to a less dumb trader but still overleveraged (like me)

shorted btc

this was one of the few reasons why i’m leaning toward trending summer over ranging summer since end of june, i’ve been noticing large delta being punted repeatedly at range highs, that aggression as if they were trying to frontrun some news

youre right, normally, i’d be positioned around aug and look to sell in dec. but the base case for this is, if we’re having a trending summer rather than a ranging one, then getting positioned now doesn’t seem so bad, especially if the goal is to capture some of that short-term
