I was here when Mt. Gox collapsed. I was here in 2017 when FTC went to the moon and fucktupled my worth. I was here in 2021 when I almost became a millionaire. I was here in 2024 when I listened to the wrong crowd and lost it all. I am here today after adapting. 2026 new chapter.

@timheus Nah brother, had the first proper getaway holiday in about 5 years. So no screen time for me, but back into it as of tomorrow!

@SplendourBytes Love ❤️ Took a trade yourself this weekend?

bitcoin:native Amazing Wyckoff Model 2 to start the week. Price came back for the final supply, then aggressively broke structure back to bearish. Model confirmed. Red circle low below, with follow-through potential. And as always, pre-planned in The Compound.

@Moneytaur_ Once again, thank you for this horrible monstrosity burning irreversible ingrains on my retinas. Much appreciated

@kssb__ Formidable trader

@Larskooistra_ You are a very young but very wise young man. My hat down to you always

Everyone needs to find their own high-probability setup and commit to only executing on that setup going forward. I do not care whether you follow me for high time frame pivots, investment timing, risk-on/risk-off decisions, scalping, day trading, meme coins, stocks, or anything else. Whatever your niche is in these markets, your job is to identify the specific criteria that make an opportunity high probability for you. If you are a meme coin investor and you are extremely good at identifying memes with serious potential, then define the exact criteria a meme needs to meet for you to consider it high probability. Those are the only memes you should be investing in. Nothing else. If you are a day trader like me, and you have specific variables that need to align before a setup becomes high probability, then you should wait for those exact variables to align before taking a trade. Not almost or close enough, no, you want the exact confirmations. If you are a stock investor who focuses mainly on fundamentals and partly on technicals, then only invest in stocks that meet your high-probability fundamental criteria. Do not force opportunities just because you want to be involved. I do not care what market you trade, invest in, or pay attention to. The principle is the same: only execute when the opportunity meets your high-probability setup. The problem is that high-probability setups are not frequent. That is what destroys most people in these markets. They do not have the patience to wait. You can take one great high-probability trade, make money from it, and then ruin those profits before the next high-probability setup appears because you started taking lower-quality trades in between. This applies to every area of the market. Trading, meme coins, stocks, investing, fundamentals, technicals, it does not matter. High-probability setups happen less often. But if you have the discipline to only execute when they appear, and only take opportunities you are genuinely willing to lose money on because your conviction is that strong, you will outperform the person who is forcing trades every single day. I can guarantee you that if you were to go back in time and backtest the entire year of 2025 when only trading your true high probabilty setup --> the compounded results will shock you. Find your setup. Define your criteria. Wait for alignment. Execute only when it is truly there. And lastly, if you don't have a high-probability setup, your priority should be on learning one.

@barnc0re Facts

A realization i had about trading theory that i put in my journal recently, thought i'd share in case it helps anyone... The whole game of trading is about positioning yourself. That's it. It doesn't have to be fancy. It's not about accurately predicting the market. It's not about attaining some genius level identity. It's not about cracking the davinci code. It's about having enough restraint and control to selectively position yourself in ways where the risk is low and the probability is high, over and over. That's it. EVERYTHING in trading is a subcategory of that main purpose/intent. There's a lot of different strategies/ways we can go about slicing that overarching intent, but that's the crux of it. It's the thing most new/aspiring traders don't realize about trading (myself included), and i think it's because big wins get so glorified on social media. But the truth is it's simply about gaming the math. It's not glamorous. You set yourself up so the math is on your side over the long run. Your entire trading strategy should be filtered through that lens, and not enough ppl say that. Prob cos they have a holy grail to sell

@barnc0re Legend, thanks for sharing brother

For anyone using AI in their trading research who hasn't seen this yet, there's this new-ish workflow concept/idea called "Karpathy's Wiki" that's worth knowing about... Basically instead of the RAG-style of AI digging through your documents from scratch every time you ask a question (how NotebookLM or ChatGPT work when you upload files to them), you feed an agent your docs once and it builds + maintains a structured interlinked Obsidian vault out of them. New docs don't just get dropped in as files, the AI actually writes & updates existing pages in its own words with new info and re-links related concepts as it goes. Then you query the vault, not the raw docs. It adds, self-edits, consolidates, and can even scan the whole vault for contradictions and stale claims. So it ends up being this living breathing Obsidian vault that evolves & compounds over time as you feed it more knowledge. For trading the use-case kind of jumps out i reckon. Most of us have years of fragmented stuff (research notes, MT posts, journal reflections, spreadsheets, screenshots, transcripts, saved articles) sitting in folders and bookmarks doing nothing. This is a way to wire it together into something you can actually pull on. Could be really useful for structuring all the trading research you accumulate into an integrated actionable strategy, or catching where your methodology has drifted or contradicted itself over time. Haven't built one for trading yet (i just found it), but planning to. Sharing in case it lights a bulb for anyone else 💡 (i'll put the resources in the comments)

@kssb__ Crazy how nature do that

$NQ 23R Probably just random

@kssb__ Never traded tradfi but I'd be keen to get a piece of this action. This edge looks nuts! Joined 618ers but don't want to give discord my number. Can I reach out via PM about it?

$NQ 13.5R Same execution as yesterday (if you pay close enough attention) Left a limit order where price was supposed to reverse… and it reversed Couldn’t hold the full move because I messed up the position size lol

I've been seeing the numbers 54 A LOT recently, i'll be interesting to see if anything happens on 5/4...

@Albert_618 Nice post Albert. Straight from the heart

Why I refuse to learn more TA This is meant to help you not to attack you. When I started leaving the "I buy and hope it goes up" idiocracy and discovered MT I was consistently losing. So I looked for answers and more TA - it only got worse. Yeah some wins here n there but anybody can pull a win. Just need to click. So I went back to the only one that I know that shared a ton of free opportunities to make money. I just realized - if it's the real thing it won't be easy. The before and afters he shared made me a lot of money... There must be something so I looked into his whole feed - not comparable. What Moneytaur gifted - works perfectly for me and if you look at the public shared trades I gave... More TA doesn't lead to more Profit, but to more insecurity when you trade. Example "I don't like how price is approaching" "I was waiting for my entry model" - you just suffer fear. I learn more psychology. When I turned bullish at the bottom of the indices I've been alone - it was based on Psychology. Of bigger Accounts. And their followings. They don't make money trading. Everybody doubted and we had war - it wont get any more bullish. No TA needed. The majority will never be right. Never. But they turned bearish. Big accounts. Trusted accounts. It was logic that we see ATHs. Moneytaur connects dots - I use and trade YOUR Psychology. Look what you send out into the world before you get stopped. The Signals you give make me not enter. Thank you for that. And when you choose to go into another market and turn bearish - I long the f*ck out of it. (it's provoking I know and I don't want you to lose but you choose your way by yourself) To time a bottom I am sure it's not needed to look at a chart. A chart is a manipulative Language many don't understand and never will. Read the manipulated ones and cash will flow. More terms. More drawings - I don't need drawings. You just manipulate yourself and once I spot this - you become my Edge. I asked you to check something - but you didn't. You learned more TA. From those who either turned bearish or did other harmful things to their followers. You are trapped in your own psychology. You trust blindly. People witness me pulling high RR trades on a regular basis that nobody takes - besides those who trade with me and my Team. You could now say "but yeah I trade HTF" - yeah open your eyes what did I do there? My brain is different. I lost trust in the world when I was very young. Probably getting beaten up is helpful in that process. Trust is weakness. Weakness gets punished. "Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face" Your plans are based on paintings but the candles slice through it - or when you want to see your plan for an entry model showing on the chart, the voices in your head get loud and you cant enter.. The outcome of more TA. Remember the BTC range and my chart? It worked out 100% - yeah one single level was hard to make money on.. the rest was free and easy to handle. But because you look for (insert the new TA you acquired) you can't execute. You should learn critical thinking and don't trust instead of learning more TA. Did you count the RR of the trades I shared? Imagine you risked fixed 1% - what would be the gain? Tell me. Ah thats only Albert, no brand, no cool PFP, just random chihuahuas... I do that for a reason. Same with my clothing. I am still the guy from the streets. I want to attract people that are not blinded by fake Authority, by Social proof and a feeling of Unity in form of Stockholm Syndrome. My way and what I speak is uncomfortable - like the truth ALWAYS is. Facts speak. Many people never see the Facts that I see. Don't forget that the main teaching of MT is to activate your critical thinking.

@Albert_618 Tollezeit! Ja! I don't know much German, but I'm putting the little I know to good use lol. Thanks for sharing, it's an interesting way of thinking about self, however not too foreign

Complicated for me to get that thing between my ears quiet. After a good chat with someone I realized its Tolle Time for me again. Now. youtu.be/LcBC0Rt8mIs?si…

@ASX__Trader I want to respond to this post with another post made by Evan to raise awareness of Australia's condition. It goes hand in hand with why taxes increase and why instruments by which Australian citizens can save are systematically being removed. x.com/EvanWritesOnX/…

I’ve heard they’re weighing up either grandfathering the 50% CGT discount or giving people a 2 year window to sell before any changes kick in. Which option do you think makes more sense, and how do you see it impacting the market?

"Delay is the first proof that the dream is real. If your reward was meant to be small, it would have arrived by now. But the fact that you are waiting, the fact that it has not come yet, is not proof of denial; it is the first and greatest proof that the dream you carry is of substance. Delay is heaven's way of verifying whether your desire is a spark or a flame. Only flames are worthy of fuel. The size of your dream determines the size of your delay. A man who wishes for ease will be given quickly what he asks, but a man who dares to demand greatness, he will be delayed, not because he is forgotten, but because the structure must be fortified first. Too many lose heart in the delay, because they believe the silence means denial, but the silence is not opposition; it is refinement. It is the pause between planting and harvest." - Neville Goddard When I heard this quote, it really resonated with what I have been feeling at my current point in the trading journey. Sometimes I feel like I need to be farther along in the journey, but I have to remember it is a process, and I am exactly where I need to be. If you are feeling this at your current stage, double down on your faith in the process and your dream ⚡️
