@Gold_Cryptoz @puffy_trades Very tight stops way to go!

@Gold_Cryptoz @puffy_trades Analyse why the markets have been behaving so negatively - price of oil. If the US are indicating they will not do much re Hormuz. Initial reaction buy as US war front winding down, but predicting market down, why? Who will sort out hormuz.....more to this coming up soon!

A change of language from Trump here after market close. ‘We are close to meeting our objectives in the ME’

@Gold_Cryptoz Glad you're safe bro.

I hate to say it but equities, commodities and oil are trading like the worst in this war development is yet to come. I drove 8 hours over the border into Oman and after an insane 24hr hours I’ve now departed the UAE and arrived elsewhere. The ideal ended in a 10k fine + loss of vehicle for my driver. There was no upside in me staying and many unknown variables - as a trader I had to think in terms of probabilities and manage my risk. I love Dubai, and I will be back when things simmer down a bit. Til then I will lay low and recoup

@Gold_Cryptoz Stay safe

Guys, not great in Dubai right now. Not really sure what’s happening, as does everyone else. Constant barrage of missiles the last hour with one hitting / shrapnel hitting the palm. Obviously I want to get out as soon as possible, I had a flight booked to leave in the next 48 hours but obviously it’s cancelled Now that it’s night time you can clearly see the missiles across the sky. Very surreal

@0xmock Think robotics

I need your help 💕

@Gold_Cryptoz Wishing you a great Xmas - healthy, happy and prosperous New Year

Not much will happen next 1-3 weeks. Use this time of the year as a mental reset and recharge before we start the new year of 2026. 2025 was an incredible trading year overall. Use this period as a reflection on yourself and your trading… What you can improve on and what you are thankful about this year. The market is undeniably dogshit right now but there will be some amazing opportunities in 2026, be patient and get excited for that.

@Gold_Cryptoz Am seeing easier profit in equities.

Markets top on good news and bottom on bad news. Notice how we've had all of the good news we could possibly get come out yet the crypto market is still stair stepping down? I dread to think of what happens to Bitcoin on the first piece of bad news we get. The market has well and truly shifted and I for one refuse to be a part of it. I could care less about these intra day 1% bounces. I've traded enough last bear market and paid enough tuition to know that I simply to not want to be involved with it.

@Gold_Cryptoz @KeepinNatty Great seeing people do well in life - well done. Am up on the year too.

no im probably down like 10% from picotop (uPnL) ath's. I could care less about that though, I'm very happy with my result the last year... I paid my mums house off I gifted my brother a Rolex for his 30th birthday I paid for my whole family to go on holidays I paid all of my dads debts off I purchased the Patek 5711/1r i had my eye on for years And entered the art scene by buying a 200 year old painting in Monaco I retained 90% of my net worth and have it in money markets, real estate, gold and a few other things it's a win in my eyes so whatever

@Gold_Cryptoz You still in BTC long term?

First people said we are lagging gold then gold nukes and we do nothing Then people said to buy the pre FOMC dip and we nuked after the rate cut even further … If it looks like dog shit, smells like dog shit, feels like dog shit, tastes like dog shit Chances are it’s probably dog shit

@0xmock Am still in ETH spot from $1275. Once other staking ETF's hit, should break $5k

Genius season

@thedefivillain Never fight a market - always go with it.

$ETH almost at ATH $SOL already back at $240 $DOGE up +50% in a week But somehow I feel zero euphoria in the market Am I completely off on sentiment here ?

@Gold_Cryptoz @0xmock ETH ETF Staking approval should kickstart a break of $5K - should be announced any day now - one would think! DAT's holding firm.

@0xmock been twapping more into ETH today, looks good to me

It's gonna happen? Isn't it?

@Gold_Cryptoz @turnstyles88 Myself too - thank you once again

@turnstyles88 Trust me it helps me too

Outside of shorter term volatility I don’t believe the data released this week will have any lasting impact on the market. The economy is in a solid spot, I’m not expecting any surprises. We have Trump saying ‘I expect a rate cut’.. the market doesn’t believe him so no rate cut = non event, rate cut = max risk on We had $9b in BTC sales over an illiquid weekend and no Saylor TWAP into the market and we are back into range and consolidating Take things slowly, don’t get fudded out during the chop, believe in the trend

@Gold_Cryptoz @Kripto_Jo Thanks for you're advice - nice to see someone in a similar position. Institutions seem to be playing with the market and trying to buy back cheaper for the next leg up.

I see how market develops over time. At this point with my entries I just don’t believe it’s a good idea to close them, especially after already a -20% move on most alts + $1b in liqs these past 24hrs Everyone was screaming for $150k last week and now this week already doubt the intact trend.. get a grip, control the emotions and stick to the plan

In a volatile market like this, volatile pullbacks are also expected. These pullbacks can test conviction in your thesis and make you start doubting yourself m. It’s normal. If you believe this is the beginning of the next major leg in the market then use these opportunities to add or open the positions you believe in I firmly believe that if you are in from lower then it’s better to weather this pullback rather than sell your position out of feelings. You will likely just buy back higher and feel FOMO from the sidelines. I’m still holding onto all of my positions, sticking to my thesis. I’ve had 7 fig PnL swing on this move. Big uPnL swings are uncomfortable but it is expected on the way to Valhalla. Stay strong

@Pland__ Do you ever sleep?

I get a boner everytime I think about Saylor's liquidation (2026 maybe) It's going to be a generational short and long, BTC will be trading like a 100mil shitter

@thedefivillain Important to take into consideration the base trade. Any unwinding will cause a drawdown - perhaps not as drastic as the last time.

Do you think all ETFs will just stop buying and let $BTC go sub $50k, as well as all the treasury companies that still receive billions monthly to buy more ? Being bearish for few weeks and targeting 90s, why not, but thinking that BTC is around "its top for this cycle", no way

Let's say you had a bearish feeling because of the "bubble behavior" Let's say you sold your bitcoin, as a consequence Where do you then plan to buy again ?

@Pland__ @1xraccoon Crypto entities like this make it very difficult to argue against regulation.

@1xraccoon Governance has been a scam since day 0

Actually not a bad move keks The first option in any dao vote should always be "nothing", it’s mostly farming bots voting

@Pland__ @0xrooter What indicators/macro-factors did you use?

@0xrooter flip flopped again

Last 3 weeks I've been printing being short with puts Wen is this bull market everyone is hyped about going to start?

@Pland__ SOL and JTO, some of the best picks currently.

@DolphinMan004 friday looks miss priced but liquidity is crap

We need 0DTE for the ceasefire
