@Peoplewish Big Liquid Winner is a good band name.

I’ve got a good project for you. One of the best ways to improve your pattern recognition is to study the stocks that made truly massive moves over the last 10 years and analyze what the charts looked like before, during, and after those runs; identify low risk (tight) repeatable patterns where price expands from. The real challenge is not just finding a few examples. It is building a clean, usable historical dataset of explosive movers, then organizing it in a way that lets you quickly flip through the names and effectively teleport back to that exact period so you can study the setup, context, and progression of the move. That is the assignment. Use AI to help build a dataset of stocks that made very large moves over the last 10 years. Focus on names with meaningful liquidity so the study list is made up of legitimate, high-quality runners rather than random illiquid junk. You will need a paid data source that provides historical split-adjusted OHLC data. There are several inexpensive options that can handle this, including Massive, EODHD, and FMP. The goal is simple: create a historical study list of big liquid winners, put it into a clean usable dashboard and make it easy to review the conditions that existed before the move, through the move, and after the move. I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

@iam_preethi Also works for adults.

One of the best remedies for a fussy baby is stepping outside. I have done this hundreds of times and it works almost every single time. They go from screaming to quiet and looking around within seconds. The sudden change in environment is a sensory reset for their nervous system. Their brain gets flooded with fresh input and it interrupts whatever loop they were stuck in. Your nervous system responds to environmental shifts. Temperature change, wind, natural light, new sounds, new things to look at, etc. If your baby is losing it and you have tried everything, just walk out the front door. It sounds too simple to work but it does.

A key component of success in life and entrepreneurship is developing the ability to eat glass and smile.

@ZeroHedge_ The templated structure of the outputs is a masterclass in manipulation, if you know what you’re looking at.

The more ChatGPT now agrees with me the more I’m conscious that it’s designed to always agree with you and build on your narrative vs actually giving sound advice. I’m starting to dislike the app because of this honestly. Kinda loses a lot of its value when you realize this.

@Andrew_Menaker Underrated post in my opinion. This is what doesn’t get talked about in videos and books, yet in my experience is the number one thing that brings it all together for you.

Most traders are looking for better setups. Very few are looking for a better fit. And that’s one of the most underappreciated aspects of sustainable success in trading. Because trading isn’t just about the market… It’s about the relationship between you and the way you engage with it. Trading, by nature, requires you to override deeply wired human tendencies: > FOMO > Loss aversion > Urgency under uncertainty > The need to be right > The desire to avoid discomfort Now layer on top of that: There are dozens of markets And within each market… Hundreds of ways to trade. So the real question isn’t: “What’s the best strategy?” It’s: “What actually fits me?” Your: 👉Risk tolerance 👉 Risk capacity 👉Time horizon 👉Ability to process information 👉Emotional reactivity 👉Level of self-control All of that matters. More than most want to admit. But here’s where it gets distorted: Social media. Influencers. Endless education. Everyone is showing you their way. Their "P&L". Their timeframe. Their style. And without realizing it… You start trying to trade someone else’s nervous system. This is what I see all the time in my 1:1 work. A trader struggling… Not because they lack intelligence or work ethic. But because they’re operating in a style that doesn’t fit who they are. And when we start doing the deeper work… Something shifts. They might: **Change timeframes **Adjust holding periods **Refine position sizing **Sometimes even switch markets entirely Not because they’re giving up, but because they’re finally aligning. As a coach with 25 years plus experience, I've seenthis over and over. Self-awareness is not the same as passion. You can be passionate about trading fast… And completely unsuited for it. ➡️You can be drawn to high frequency action… ➡️And lack the regulation required to execute it well. ➡️You can want a certain identity as a trader… ➡️That has nothing to do with what actually works for you. And even when self-awareness starts to develop… It often gets pulled off track by comparison. “What are they trading?” “How much are they making?” “Am I behind?” That noise disconnects you from your own signal. Real self-awareness is quieter. More honest. Less exciting. But far more powerful. It asks: 🔑What kind of environment do I actually perform best in? 🔑When does my decision-making degrade? 🔑What level of risk can I truly tolerate—not just intellectually, but emotionally? 🔑Where does my edge align with my personality? Because the goal isn’t to force yourself into a mold. It’s to find the intersection between your edge and your nature. That’s where sustainability lives. That’s where consistency starts to emerge. In the end, trading isn’t just pattern recognition on a chart. It’s pattern recognition within yourself. And the traders who last… Aren’t the ones who copy the most. ✅They’re the ones who see themselves most clearly. You don’t need a better strategy. You need a strategy that fits the operator. Because you’re not just trading the market. You’re trading your own Inner Market.

Lately I've been using AI chats to create alignment and clean up clutter in my own life... Ideas, projects, decisions... Talk it out with chatgpt, claude, gemini, etc, and it might just help you move forward a lot faster, a lot lighter, and with more conviction and peace.

@SJosephBurns @markminervini Worth keeping in your notes as a signpost for sure.

@SubRosaMagick At least 8 of them, yes.

@CFlanders7 What course is that?

Good to take breaks when the market is slow!

@markminervini Thin Lizzy unless I missed it.

@SamaHoole 👏🏼

The sun was free. They sold you SPF 50 and a vitamin D deficiency. Sleep was free. They sold you an app, a pill, and a wearable that tells you your sleep was bad. Walking was free. They sold you a treadmill, a fitness tracker, and a £180 pair of trainers. Fasting was free. They sold you meal replacement shakes and the anxiety that skipping breakfast would wreck your metabolism. Cold water was free. They sold you a £3,000 plunge barrel and a podcast episode about it. Silence was free. They sold you a meditation app with a premium tier. Animal fat was cheap. They sold you seed oils, then supplements to replace what the animal fat contained. Tallow was cheap. They sold you a seventeen-step skincare routine and a clinical trial proving your face needs ceramides. Meat was cheap. They are currently selling you the idea that you shouldn't eat it. The 20th century removed access to everything the body needs to function. The 21st century is selling it back, one subscription at a time. Your great-grandmother had none of the products. She had all of the things.

@GrantCardone I’ll take “What is breakfast” for $100, Alex.

What’s this called for $100

@AMAZlNGNATURE That’s not a bad bench. There’s a similar 10/10 bench in Lucerne, Switzerland in front of the music conservatory on top of the hill, overlooking the valley, city, and mountains.

Possibly the best bench in the entire world

@thebrianstonk … and you’re surprised? The power goes out more often on sunny days than bad weather.

No power in Puerto Rico… On the most perfect sunny day ☀️ the grid where we get our electricity from exploded? 😳

@cryptopunk7213 Sure sounds like a great idea. “Hey Claude, log into my bank account.” “Hey Claude, help my elderly mother take her important pills.” “Hey Claude, change the title of my home to be in your name.”

Anthropic fucking killed it (again). biggest ai product launch of the year so far. claude can now control your entire computer autonomously. anything you can do on a computer - claude can. your very own digital employee. - any app, browser, file, spreadsheet, tool claude can intelligently access and operate. - claude controls your entire screen (like a human), no connectors. this is a huge step-up in intelligence. - best part: you can text claude to do things from your phone and it'll do work on your computer! - in the last week anthropic has shipped 9 features that have built up to this: a fully automated digital human. unreal

@waitbutwhy Many such cases. Like why call an open door ajar when it’s a door? 🤷‍♂️

If we call the tip of the finger a fingertip, I think we should call the ball of the foot a football

@fincards_app … until it gaps down under support the next day on news.

When you finally find that stock worth holding

@Crowded_Mkt_Rpt @MagaGrunt1 I lol’d on that one 😂

@MagaGrunt1 It used to worry me. Now Im just thankful for it

🇺🇸Not trying to alarm anyone, but is anyone else worried about how fucking stupid everyone is??🇺🇸
