Mr. Anderson

Everyone screaming “this move has just begun” is ignoring reality. #Bitcoin bottomed in November 2022. Since then, it’s already done an 8x. We are not at the start. We are much, much closer to the end. If we’re lucky, there are one or two more glorious pushes left. But that’s it. This is the stage where traders either: -lock in legacy gains, or =get drunk on euphoria and hand it all back. The truth? The bear always comes. And when it does, it won’t be a dip. It’ll be a 12-month purge designed to rug every late believer. So settle down. Get serious. Mark your invalidations. Respect your levels. Be ready to seize the subsequent one or two runs… Enjoy whatever form of Alt-season we get and then brace yourself. Because when the rug finally gets pulled, only disciplined traders will survive the dark side of this cycle.

The middle of the range is where bad trades are born. Edges are where decisions get made. The middle is where people invent reasons. If you want clarity, trade where something actually matters.

A poetic moment in Bitcoin’s story: we’re back at $69k. Think about how iconic this level really is. For years it wasn’t just a price, it was the ceiling. The number everyone memorized. The line the entire market dreamed about, joked about, argued about, and obsessed over. We hit it in 2021… failed… and then spent three long years wondering if we’d ever see it again. When we finally retested it, it took another full year of fighting, shaking out tourists, and testing conviction before Bitcoin actually broke through. Now,we return to $69k from above, not as an unreachable fantasy, but as a level we treat like any other point on the chart. That’s what makes this so poetic. A price that once represented the absolute peak of imagination… is now just a waypoint on a much larger journey. If you needed a reminder of how far this asset has come and how wild this space truly is, this is it. What a time to be alive.

Breakouts are easy to see. Acceptance is the hard part. A level getting pierced means little. A level getting reclaimed and held means everything. That is the difference between a move and a trap.

In 1999, I turned my trading bankroll into 125 times what I started with and thought I was a trading genius. In 2000, I lost every penny. The profits, the original bankroll, and my confidence. But my story did not end there. That was where my real journey began. Never quit!

Gratitude changes everything. It shifts you from, “Why don’t I have more?” to, “Wow… look at what I’ve been given.” Suddenly: • Stress lowers • Relationships deepen • Sleep improves • Joy returns You don’t need a new life. You need a new lens; gratitude.

Life becomes simpler when you stop resisting it. Rain will fall regardless of your complaints. Traffic will be present whether you stress about it or not. People will behave as they choose, no matter how much you worry. Concentrate on what you can change, and let go of what you cannot.

🚨 Officials confirm: the most secure, free, and fair election in North Korea’s history.

Most people won’t dedicate 3 years to building their own dream… but they’ll dedicate 40 years to building someone else’s. It’s not patience they lack, it’s perspective.

The paradox of trading: At first, you work hard to learn everything. Later, you work even harder to throw most of it away. Getting started is about gaining knowledge. Getting good is about removing noise, bad habits, and useless beliefs. A lot of trading growth is not learning more. It is unlearning what is hurting you.

“When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive, to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.”

Trading is mostly a mind game. If you cannot control your emotions, you will never control your risk. If you cannot control your risk, the market will control you. Protect your money. Follow the plan. Master yourself first. After that, the charts get a lot easier.

#Bitcoin has done many things, but Bitcoin has NEVER, in its entire history, closed a monthly candle back below a prior cycle’s monthly closing high after confirming a breakout above it. $61,359 is that level (Oct 2021 monthly closing high). If we close below it, it's the first confirmed monthly cycle-level top-side breakdown in history. We'll know soon.

Markets don’t move when you’re excited. They move when you’re exhausted. Consolidations exist to drain belief, to break the greedy, the leveraged, & the impatient. When most people stop believing in the next rally… that’s when the rally begins.

All war is a symptom of man's failure as a thinking creature.

A happy life is usually a simple life. A family you love, and who feels that love from you. A healthy body built through sleep, movement, and better choices. A clear mind shaped by reading, thinking, and curiosity. A purpose that gives peace, not pressure. And above all, a walk with God that steadies your heart when life shakes. Happiness is rarely found in more. It is usually found in finally valuing what matters.

Sometimes the farmer dreams of flying, while sometimes the pilot gazes down at the farm, wishing to return home. The truth is this If wealth guaranteed happiness, the rich would be dancing in the streets, but it's often the poor kids who do that. If power ensured safety, leaders wouldn’t need bodyguards. Meanwhile, it's the simple people who sleep peacefully at night. If beauty and fame could create love, celebrities would have perfect marriages. Live simply. Walk humbly. Love deeply. That’s where a good life begins.

@joekent16jan19 Joe, when did your view change?

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.

If you cannot control your emotions, you are easy to control.

Iran is stronger now than befor the war? There is barely any point trying to talk about war online. It is 24/7 propaganda, emotion, and people repeating whatever side they already wanted to believe. But the idea that Iran is somehow stronger now is insane. Stronger, except it now has almost no leadership, almost no navy, almost no air force, almost no air defense, a badly damaged Kharg Island, less of China as a sponsor, and less of a censorship grip on the internet than before. But other than that, they’re thriving. 🤷‍♂️
