If you are attracted to "Grind, Hustle, Execution", I just want to remind you that those basically mean:
Grind: Reduction to smallness; Dullness
Hustle: Roughly shoving or swindling someone
Execution: Put someone to death
If thats what you want your mind wrapped around, okay.
@Trader_Dante
The thing is - technicals are not supposed to be predictive tools, but risk management tools. And absolutely nobody gets why that is an insanely huge and important difference.
Nobody is humanly capable to watch all markets all open trading hours, and implying to people that they are lazy ineffective slobs when they don't is utterly idiotic and classic alpha male / turbocapitalism bullshit. Edge is knowing when to act where, not: being desperate or ngh.

@CryptoDonAlt
All I heard was "Hey, we won't tolerate money laundering for people who use crypto for ransomware crimes" and similiar stuff, which to me, normie brain that I am, rather sounds like a net plus for crypto rather than "black swan"...but what do I know, I'm just a du..oh..uh, dude.

If I were a cynic, then I would say "Thats a long thread for saying 'IT jobs can more easily do telework and have very big vacation and pay buffers, whereas most must-be-offline-and-show-up jobs cannot and do not'" even when accepting the different respect/recognition premise.
I'd rather people spend 4 hours of their day focusing on their phyiscal and mental health and emotional balance than add them to even more screentime, crippling their neck, back, social and emotional muscle.

Trading as cliff notes/spark notes:
1. Understand s/r
2. Understand 2-5 useable patterns
3. Understand risk management
4. Manage to not fuck up properly executing your plan; ideally ever, at least mostly
5. Research and review constantly, do not slack off
& Don't be a douche.

I have a lot of respect for
@Trader_Dante
not only for going balls deep on his bucket list and work/life balancing, but also for pushing his cardio.
I am happy after 12 months in from starting weights properly that I've moved from 40 kilo starter deadlifts to 95, a hair from 100.
@Trader_Dante
Kissed my mirror image, took myself to dinner and intend to stay the same handsome charming devil that I am in 2023 as well.
If thats not ready to roll, I don't know what is.
Gonna say something honest about
#Crypto
right now.
Rarely has there ever been a more ongoingly depressing, overwhelming in terms of choice/lost opportunity marketplace than this.
The amount of coins I can look at that went 5-50x that I only see in retrospect is unhealthy AF.
Frankly
@Trader_Dante
could make 4% a year and I wouldn't have any less recognition or respect of his trading ability. But sadly most people think returns tell you anything about traders. Which is why so many burn cash on "autotrade along with epic returns traders" platforms.
This weekend I have finally passed my own weight in my deadlifts. \o/
Now to get my squats and my bench presses there as well. :D
Also, after just 6 weeks, I have hit my personal 5% weight loss goal, which is really cool. Will continue at least another 2, likely more.
The funny thing about parabolic BTCUSD is that it doesn't give a flying shit about any technicals.
=> The majority of BTC gains happened in their own reality.
Yet in the phases where crypto consolidates or stagnates, everyone pretends like their TA matters on it.
People iz weird.
I feel super shitty for basically being live with the losses and then doing well while off of Twitter, but the honest part of that is that "trading out loud" on Twitter does fuck with my concentration. I felt a _lot_ better trading for myself the next few days. So I hope that..
@soonaorlater
From what I understand Telegram hit over 500M users in just two weeks or so as well.
This WhatsApp data share(which I think was from day 1 already) comes on top of the Parler shutdown. People are looking for something uncensored and ideally a bit "hidden" and anti-gov, I suspect.

Spoiler: Most of modernity is pointless unhealthy consumption, false promises and marketing, fear and enforced lockdown via capital obligations - instead of health, community, shared identity and purpose.
Everything we've grown to endorse is really just sick.
Have a great day!
@nope_its_lily
He has understood that you can buy 500m of something, then tell 1.2m people you did, and use their 10-1000 larger FOMO liquidity to create price distance profits, same as most crypto cheerleaders imho.
No hate, its the smartest capitalistic move.
That is the flood of charts for now.
Enjoy, peruse, and if you find yourself liking them, please show Twitter as well. :-)
I want to add: I am happy about everyone that already does follow me.
Many of you have known me/my account for YEARS and I appreciate it very much! ❤️🌞
For all the 20 of my followers that aren't fake/spam/bot accounts, I ask:
Please please please do your best to like and reply to these posts if you appreciate them at all.
Its just a thumb smudge.
Without engagement, these will just stay invisible and its super demotivating.
@KeithMcCullough
To add or paraphrase: What is the point of a store of value if it loses it at precisely the moment of crisis you got it for and would need it in(hello sub-14$ Silver)?
Dear followers: I really do appreciate all of you being here and giving me some of your very limited time of day. I sincerely try my best to put in mine to share relevant content and prove that there aren't just after-the-fact bozos in the world. So thank you! Have a great week.

Time for:
BTC tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter BTC had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter
Thanks for doing some live shows again
@Trader_Dante
- was nice hearing you go on about your passion as always.
For those that want the 4 "homework" points from the webby, here goes.
For the following week:
1. No trades that are not part of your edge / "system" / "approach"
..
People ask: What do you trade with?
I say: SARCASM.
They roll their eyes and walk away.
I chuckle and think "You shoulda asked".
Support
And
Resistance
Create
Ample
Systematic
Money
It is no surprise that a lot of people do not get sarcasm.
Provocative tweet of the day:
If you claim to "trade BTC", you're a laugh. You bought a thing that went sideways 3 years and then went vertical for 6 months, making anyone on it rich.
That's got as much to do with trading as bumper scooters with F1 racing.
Just say you got lucky.
I wish I could partake more in these thought exchanges with
@Trader_Dante
and
@NicTrades
but I am still confined to a life that involves lunch breaks. I really want to write some essays on a lot of topics still. A webpage will come eventually.
If you're gonna get high or try to kill yourself, do either properly, mate. :-p
Vape!
@trader1sz
If its just the nicotine you need you may as well get a fairly pure nicotine liquid to vaporize and save yourself the gajillion death-cancer-chems.
EURUSD
Now has hit the full 4R target (without me, c'est la vie).
I am not going to lie - I have always been better at pre-charting and analysis than absolutely flawless execution.
The trick is to still do well enough regardless.
@AdamMancini4
Are the three setups classics or very selfconfigured items?
I am quite curious what your three are today.
I agree completely with the one thing well approach.
I post these with sod all followers, while I watch the already 25k-100k++ crowd get cheered on. If you wish to champion people who understand price action and can draw up price plans in advance, then by all means, it is the season of giving: help give me a go at 10k! :-)
Cheers!

Good luck getting a country of peak entitlement without a memory of wartime to do anything but be even more toddler-level entitled.
Since I have very little time lately, I figure I should just show you an excerpt of my last Sunday thoughts and trade plans vs this Sunday's followup.
Sure, its a selected winner, but that is the point of trading plans. You get to keep the winners, and you mitigate loss. Trading.
#GBPUSD
To not just leave and because I really want to keep providing good chart content: here is the GBPUSD and why I liked it so much and why I felt it was prudent to not just take profit but then also get out completely at that swing low.
This was a really great intraday.
@Trader_Dante
To be fair, what worked for me was someone taking the time to calmly and logically explain how things worked so that I could go from there. It was abig change from feeling alone and unsure about everything, to having someone to show you what to focus on.Then you walk on your own.
@naravv__
Thanks for the above Nara and actually giving a very straight.
And yes, I was teasing a bit and being facetious with the refund part, no relation.
I have no experience with Nara's work, but from what I can tell she's a very serious operator and cares strongly about what she does.
I sincerely believe that one of the key differences between winning and losing traders isn't necessarily skillset or some kind of secret knowledge.
Its being able to sit on your hands for crucial periods at a time, while everyone tweets and talks ignorant shit & is overactive.
@JadeCapFX
Given that Jim also traded a lot of pure touches, raw price and retracements, plus people used price patterns on 5-15M and 1-4h, and NEVER without context, its a wee bit of a stretch to claim that moves are over when a setup forms.
See also: Oldschoolers trading on weeklies(!).
If you spend 70 hours a week watching screens because you feel like you "have to" or you might "miss something",the things you ARE missing is
- 24/5 markets are not 24/5 observable by 1 person and
- you are gaining just about zero advantage from working on your own
- inner calm
Soon as some1 launches into a whole "smart money"/"secret indicator"/"special reports" etc thing and there's more than 50 acronyms and other shit to learn first, they're likely just taking you - and eventually your money - for a ride.
IMO:Pay for education&service, not "secrets".
The thing I missed the most about

webinars:
[ ] Epically precise price forecasts
[ ] Cussing
[ ] Beautifully drawn levels
[ ] The best hair in the biz
[ x ] The way Tom says "heeeeeeere" when pointing at things 🧐
GBPUSD looks set to probe upside. Both UJ and EURUSD have pushed against the USD as well. This has come on the back of stock market retracements, oil selloff and xxxJPY action.
Spent eight years posting charts I wish I'd had access to myself early on = under 2k followers.
Shitpostcrypto accounts and girls posting cryptoblah 6-24 months old: 40-200k follower.

Not sure / regularly wonder why I'm still posting at all tbh.

Yes, the price is too low.

#cryptocrash
That move lower on $BTCUSD ..
Who could have seen it coming?
Oh, right.
The guy who doesn't have the 300.000 followers, because he's charting & trading instead of buying engagement boosting bots.😳
I'm never going to get over this, I think.
How to tell you are dealing with trending markets:
Trending markets are when you spend the current day thinking the entire day "This is already too far gone, there is no way I am buying/selling this late"..
..and then the next day you wish you had the prices of yesterday back.
@WhiteWolfTrader
It would be obviously valuable to find out what the key mistakes were and what key insights the trader provided. I would recommend making a post specifically about this, ideally with reference to the guy as well. If it was private, I would gladly accept a DM on the subject, too.
@Mozzi_analyst
If I reply now saying stochs and rsi have no meaning during strong trends I am just going to catch shit for it, aren't I.
So I'm just gonna nod and say "Could be, sure."
USDX
We have basically arrived +- whatever overshoot may happen.
Sure,
@ZFXtrading
already posted pretty much the same thing via rates, but mine has cool rock lyrics AND its done with a trading terminal chart that is likely older than anyone on cryptotwitter, so nyer!
NZDUSD
As promised, here is a detailed 1h post-mortem of the trade.
The initial short was something I had wanted ever since we started stalling at the secondary retest area/bull trap - and the USD strength across the board helped me to make the final go-decision. Target was lows.
What's that?
You'd love a video of me saying I am bearish on all kind of indices on weekly and monthly?
Say no more, I have one on the public side of my (quite undermaintained) website, right on the front page!

I wish everyone a hopefully happy, healthy and home-ly long weekend and that you all are and stay well.
I spent it going quite literally back to nature and walking 15k steps around a hill/"mountain", enjoying the reduced amount of people and rather breathable air.
Be well!
