One week timeframe and patience are among some of the greatest secrets I have found in crypto. I feel bad I closed my WLD trade I bought at the bottom, around 0.58+ and now it's $1.2. I went on Binance and read a post of someone saying lots of bad things about the coin (yeah, I know it has a bad tokenomics) and how it'll be delisted in the future because Altman, CEO of ChatGPT, is doing this and that and some countries are banning his WLD ATM blah blah blah. He spoke at length and I sold my WLD at 0.65. I projected to sell at 1 or 2 Dollar and that would've been lots of profit. The moral of story is, no matter how strong you are, you can be influenced by things you read online. Since we're all going to depart this world one day, there is no need reading every "words" you come across. An argument is happening up there, but I just skipped all of them. I have learned my lesson from the WLD guy. Better skip or get sucked in by emotions. I sold out of emotions. Make God punish that Indian guy wey make that post. Anyway, it's part of the process — you can't win all. |
Chilipepper:Higher timeframe trades have minimal losses that you might not want to consider a loss. Also, if it's turning to a loss, it creates an opportunity for a better entry with another account, which recovers the minimal loss. A pride of lions don't lose fights easily, but that doesn't mean once in a while, one of them won't sustain injuries or die in the process. |
For my weekly trading strategy, Friday against Saturday is my sell day, so I'll do it 2 hours from now. My strategies are boring and mechanical, but they work. |
Tolumiide:Sorry, it would be hard to retrieve, but keep trying to see if they'll reset your account. Just disturb them. |
Tolumiide:Is the 2FA Google? If yes, I though they have a backup system. |
SINisSIN:Shorted it at 200+% and haven't closed yet. |
LincolnOnyeabor:Yeah, volume is the boss. From info online, it works on Forex, but not as effective as crypto and others. Forex guys will surely find a way to work around it. |
To the government, she's just a woman and deserves more bullet, but if she wasn't a Fulani, they would've started investigating. |
Just watched this video and noticed this guy has exposed my style and one of my best strategies. He needs to be arrested. Too simple, too effective, but requires patience. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBsjqxEXdy8?si=RkBGawGNIJ8F9sCt |
digits69:Each writeup will appear in a book series and when it happens, some may not be able to afford it, so this is the only way for them to read the unwritten book in its raw form. Every kindness has an agenda and most times, that agenda is the motivation. |
The image below is the battle going on. Institution vs exchange. Institution bought at 80k down to 74k and now, they want the market to go to 99k or above 100k, but exchanges want the market to crash to 78k because there is more billions to be made if they dump it to 78k or even lower. If it goes to 100k, exchanges will make less, but 78k, they make more on liquidation. All I know is, they'll smartly orchestrate it where both will be achieved so that both longs and shorts will be obliterated. Wicked people, but it's fun if you understand their game. They're just waiting for a catalyst to pull the triggers so they can blame the pump or dump on that thing.

This image below was what made me realize that the best trades are after millions of people are crying or jubilating. So, have usdt for those days. It regularly happens when we least expect them.
|
digits69:Simplicity and staying organised is the secret. Even my best indicators are the simple ones. You only know this after you've used the complex ones. Whatever you love or addicted to automatically becomes easy to you even if it truly isn't. That's just how it works. I operate in an obsessive manner and this is why I don't fall in love with humans cuz it'll affect me the day the person dies. Zero emotional attachment to humans to save my mental health. So, I put all the love, emotions and effort in whatever skill I'm learning or improving and this makes it easy. |
I don't know if it's only me, but I'm not good at increasing my position except the new entry is lower than my previous. If I short BTC at 94.2k, I'm never comfortable shorting again except it goes above my previous short. Same for long. If I long at 74k, entering another long at 88k feels weird except after months of consolidation and starting a brand new trade with a new account or subaccount. I shorted Zerebro yesterday at 0.092 and saw opportunities to increase my position when it was going down, but couldn't, so I closed the trade at 0.072. Also, for coins not in top 100, I'm only comfortable shorting after 200% pump in a day. It used to be 130%, but now 200% or 500% for my first short. I'm becoming more rigid.

If this happens on a regular basis and the number of herders is from 50 and cow from 100, it'll put fear in them. Even if they retaliate, they'll also be aware that the other group will retaliate too and the process continues until they finally come to an conclusion that they too, the herders are not safe. Who's more at risk? The herders because they're easily trailed through the movement of their cow. |
Where are the CBEX people? You guys have been silent. ![]() The first time I heard it, I just smiled and kept quiet because I know it'll crash and if I advise people against it, they may not listen. I have engaged in such in 2021 and I got my money back before it crashed. Zero profit made.

A 100x on those three places is a cash cow, but please, don't do it. Do accordingly to your strategy and use 5x or less. After you've bought when it touches the white line, make sure your liquidation is the price you bought divided by 2 or 3. I bought at 75k, so 75/2 = 37.5k. Or 75/3 = 25k. So, those should be your liquidation. If market does a black swan crash to that level, then so be it. You're ready to handle it. It's just money that you lost, not your life. That's why it's good to risk only money you can lose and still be alive. COVID CRASH ANALYSIS You bought at 7,300 (refer to the arrows in the picture below), but market crashed to 3.8k. Using 7300/2 = 3.6k. You're still safe by a tiny margin of $200. That means even the crash won't affect you except it's a real bear market crash.
|
Every cycle, excluding bear market year, have 0-3 buying opportunities that favour 100x leverage. As I earlier said, don't do it, it's risky, but I do it because I'm stubborn and I have strategies to back it up and I use multiple exchanges incase of unforseen liquidate as it happened in 2020 COVID crash. So, from buy-more year to sell year, there are 3 irresistible buying opportunities you must never miss. The images below outlined them for 2013 cycle, 2017 cycle, 2021 cycle and now 2025 cycle. It has already printed the 3rd buy at the price of 74k. I go hard at these 3 opportunities.

9japride:Most people use the financial market open as their entry, especially what they call Silver Bullet time or killzone. It's a period in Asian, London or New York time where volume is high. For me, I use weekly VWAP on daily timeframe. I'll first of all know the year we're in and the trend of the market, then I buy on Tuesday or Wednesday and sell on Friday against Sat. Rinse and repeat. Sometimes, I let it run for some weeks. If the dump on Monday has so much volume, then I'll buy on Monday and probably skip the Tuesday or Wednesday buy because in most of such cases, Monday has already done the damage. The Vwap helps me know if it's short or long and I use volume and sentiment to make my final judgement. Other times, I don't trade, but watch the market pump or dump without me while I take notes of what I should've done. This video below is similar to what I'm saying, but hers is a little different and detailed with extra info. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQegoIjmG0w?si=o5WYTQpr700qFDis |
SmallDick99:My trading style is boring, mechanical and mathematical. It doesn't always make sense. Since the short started with a value of 9, that is 94k, I'll close it when it starts with the value of 8, like 84k, 7 like 77k or even 6. If I'm sure we're finally entering bear market, I won't sell till November or December 2026. I'll look for more good entries. With this projection of 84k, 77k, etc., I find what agrees with it on the chart, coupled with the day it'll do a 10% dump. I have a checklist. I'm more into long term trades. Or at least, weekly. I'll sell my long on Friday, against Saturday because I know after exhaustion, which is already happening, comes a dead cat bounce spike before some corrections, then we consolidate and try to continue the uptrend weeks or months later. To answer you straight up, check the chart below, the yellow circle on The Wall of China, 78k, it always retested it in every cycle, except if this one is different. I pray it doesn't, but based on history, it always does. This is why I said my method is boring and mechanical. The blue is where I'll sell my long and probably enter another short. I trade in a way I'm willing to miss a bull run, but I don't want to miss a bear market — it's where the real money is made, when everyone loses interest and they're all selling at loss while my shorts are gathering profit. I'm not really a trader, I'm just an opportunist and it works more than 80% of the time. QT hasn't ended and QE hasn't started, so every pump is risky and has a high probability of going down until the coast is clear and the trade war is over. Why did I short? It was above 7% in a day and went a little above The Wall of Jericho, hence I entered a trap short, not my main one yet.

Ballzproblem2:Not a bad advice, but remember, if Musa was on a 100x leverage or even 50% on SUI with a million Dollar and he's a famous influencer or has a big following, he'll also make that post. |
What I'm about to say, I strongly discourage newbies from doing it. In this life, there is something our great grandfathers call sacrifice. If you want to succeed in life, you must sacrifice something. I've learned this, and I always take advantage of it. I always try to give something to Caesar, just to catch a fish. If Caesar refuses, I will eat it. So this short trade I entered, 100X, which will liquidate me at 104,000, is a trap. The money is a sacrifice, not too big. I'm ready to lose that money, just for everybody to be happy and see some greens. I have this mentality that as long as I don't quit crypto, I'm a winner even when I lose a trade. In summary, I can only lose a trade, but I can't lose the game. That is the mindset anyone who's serious should have. Yes, I was supposed to enter this short when we reach 95.5k or 97.5k, but I chose to offer an early sacrifice. Why? The weekly volume isn't strong enough. Though, we have 4 days left.

Currently 7-8% up in a day. The reason I use high leverage on this kind of trade is cuz of how I have studied the entire BTC chart from 2011 to 2025 over a trillion times. History repeats, but most times, it makes your heart skip first a couple of times before it does. What do you do? Be more prepared for bad days and be good at handling them. For a newbie, trade more to have experience, but as you grow, trade less and have checklist of what needs to happen before you buy or sell even if it takes weeks, months or years. My advice: find a way to be a patient specialist at any strategy you develop or use. It's just a matter of time and things will begin to go your way. I'll be entering a temporary short soon.

Below is Yellow Top info in a concise picture. I realized the first time I made this post I didn't include the setting of changing 30 to 40 in the indicator. YT has never failed yet to call the top, since 2013, but it doesn't mean it's the final top. Everyone's believable top comes after 20th of October of sell year. Selling at YT is good enough if you bought in No-DJ months of buy year, that is, Nov, Dec. of 2022 or even Jan of 2023. Do the research yourself and you'll see it has never failed. Zoom the image and read the instructions on white text.

twosquare:I want to confess something, but I hope it doesn’t discourage you—so please, don’t stop. Whenever I’m anticipating something, I either become restless or feel like time is moving painfully slow. Sometimes, twelve hours can feel like twelve days. My worst moments are when I order things from China. If it’s coming by air, the 5–7 days feel like an eternity. If by sea, the 1–3 months feels like three years. Why? Anticipation. At first, when you began posting that picture, I genuinely liked it—it served as a reminder. But then it started triggering that anticipation in me again, which slows down my perception of time and makes everything feel dragged out. I just want to reach a stage where I completely ignore American news until it has already played out and reflected on the chart. I feel more prepared to deal with whatever shows up on the chart—good or bad—than to deal with the constant noise from America. It’s draining. I’m at a point where I no longer want to know about U.S. macroeconomic news until minutes or hours after it’s released. The anticipation messes with my mind. It’s like this: I’d rather hear someone is dead than be told they’ve been battling something for years. That drawn-out pain—the endless prayers, the mounting hospital bills—only for them to still pass in the end? I’d rather just feel the pain once and be done with it. So, what I’m trying to say is—I love your updates. Please keep posting them, because many people genuinely benefit from them. But as for me, I’m gradually growing indifferent to America and their FOMCs. I’m more focused on how their manipulation reflects on the chart. I’m already prepared for the worst—and I have strategies in place for it. But keeping up with their endless updates is becoming increasingly frustrating, not just for me, but for a few others too. This is the main reason I don't watch the market anymore. I have voice alert for updates on the price of BTC and others. For beginners, you can watch, but after a few years in the market, you'll get bored with American news and you'll finally relate with this post. For a 5-30 mins day trader, this may not apply to you. |
Why I Chose to Specialize in Bitcoin I decided to take crypto seriously and become a Bitcoin specialist because in life, rewards follow mastery. Whatever you specialize in—with consistency and diligence—is where you'll be rewarded. Crypto, at its core, is a game between two types of people: the emotional and the manipulators. The manipulators have the money and the patience. The emotional have smaller capital and are desperate not to lose it—so desperate to multiply it quickly that, ironically, they lose it all. The manipulators—institutions, big players—wait for the perfect moment. And if that moment doesn't show up, they manufacture it. By the time they strike, the emotional participants have already FOMOed in or are trapped at a loss. So I chose a different path: I decided to master my emotions so I wouldn’t end up among the impatient. And I committed to studying the manipulators—so I could follow them quietly from behind. Crypto operates on a four-year cycle. I break it down like this: The Buy Year, The Buy-More Year, The Relax Year, The Sell Year. The Relax Year is the year of the halving—it usually happens in Q2 of that year. The smartest move? Develop a unique strategy for each of these years. That’s what I’ve done. Now, every year is a year of opportunity. I don’t fear the space anymore—I understand it. If you truly want to succeed in this space, develop patience (most important), have backups (second most important) and build a strategy tailored to each year. That’s how you take this industry seriously. Though, in the beginning of your journey, it's always from meme to meme, alts to alts, etc. As you grow, you'll understand it's time to switch to BTC and top 20 or even top 10 from experience. |
This is not about crypto, but listen to this and know where you belong. It will change your perspective for good for the rest of your life. Thank me later. Ihedi. Ihiedi Light of Africa: The Spectrum of Human Existence: https://www.tiktok.com/video/7472727022742031621/ |

This is my formula and I want to improve it. What should be added? Maybe, it's perfect already. If so, nice. By the way, graphic designers should look for another job. They should better start learning crypto and other forms of digital skills. Your job is to make sure you live a life where government doesn't have more than 10% control of your wealth, health, the place you stay, the food you eat and the life you live. 10 years from now, any youth that has access to computer isn't supposed to be poor except they chose to.
