Everything has lined up for us to range break to the upside. We didn't even flinch on CPI, and BTC has been ignoring any sort of bad news the last few days after ceasefire.

BTC holding despite breaches of ceasefire and back and forth from Israel. Beautiful Friday gentlemen.
Next boss: Big CPI miss that everybody is expecting.

We really need BTC to hold here, a retrace of the ceasefire news won't look good. As much as anyone I would love a 1-2 week window of an alt pump after such a long period of down and sideways.
The main tokens I like are:
$MON, $USELESS and $ENA
The TVL for MON constantly breaking all time highs.
USELESS pure speculation in a short window of risk on
ENA due to new product roll outs.

My current market thoughts:
I fail to see how we miraculously thoom meaningfully to the upside when this warstuff is very clearly not deescalating and trump is on the verge of carrying out ‘infrastructure day’… It just seems very unrealistic.
At some point trump is either going to have to cave, or he will have to go through with it. He won’t and can’t keep extending indefinitely.
People on the timeline talking about ‘max pain is up’… let’s be honest with ourselves for a second. Do you really think we would all suffer tremendously if bitcoin went up?

People try to force the same returns right now as in a bull market. Keeping the exact same tempo as back then and expecting the same returns.
There's a time to reap and sow, theres a season for everything. You can't expect to plant a fruit tree and harvest them in the winter time.
Now is the time to prepare the soil - so to speak. Refine your edge, keep an eye on the market, listen to the traders you respect. So that when next cycle comes you will be able to absolutely nail it.
Any profit you make now is just the cherry on top.

Live on Kick for the next hour. Jump in.

Out of the entire market, the only token that looks interesting to me for any trades this weekend is $EDGE
- fantastic volatility
- uptrending in a choppy market
- decent fundamentals with the $1m+ per day buybacks
- coming into it's first major pullback since the uptrend began. Usually these first pullbacks are worth buying

I think there is a decent chance that this is what catalyses the next leg lower out of this range
The flip side is if we hold bulls win and we break $80k
I go for the former

We are fucked
Brace yourselves for pain

Live on
Let's go over the market, answer questions and chat.

At this point in my trading career I have a negligible amount in crypto. I traded this bull market obsessed with withdrawing out profits so that when the 'hard' times came I would look back and have no regrets.
Now, I have diversified so that I can live off the interest the money makes me. People love to talk down on 'cash' until we live through the crazy things we are seeing now.
In my eyes there's no point right now to take on additional unnecessary risks in the markets.
I love to trade, and I want to be sharper by the time next bull market comes around which is why I still put in the time

The complacency on the timeline is palpable. Careful with the leverage

I remember trading last bear cycle. 12+ hours a day, 7 days a week and thinking to myself 'will this ever end? What if there's just no bull market again'.
... And then one day it did end. And all the 'locking in' during the bear market was worth it.
All you need to do is stick around long enough and have money left to trade with by the end of it.

The relative strength on BTC is just beautiful isn’t it 😭 brings a tear to my eye

The bottom is not when your favourite influencers release 30 min long videos as to why it's the bottom and how we've run out of sellers I'll say that much

I don’t know what to tell you guys but Trump actively sending thousands of troops to the Middle East and also saying He wants to end the war doesn’t go together
Trump usually says and does outrageous things after stock market closes on a Friday afternoon. That’s what I’m eyeing right now

Navigating the Bear Market:
Live on kick now.

The market is telling you everything you need to know about what is going to come next

People forget how long we drag on for in bear markets - even after bottoming out. Don’t tire yourself out in these conditions.
We likely have many more months of rubbish conditions. And even more so than now.
