everything i touch turns to gold, just never on the first touch. pick it up. dirt. work it. still dirt. another week. still dirt. right where most people put it down, a little shine. then more. then people asking what i got lucky with. midas got his in a second and nearly starved, his bread turned to metal between his teeth
dems winning is probably the worst thing happening for ai tbh. every new model used to reset what you thought was possible. no way they keep shipping at this speed now.
im a massive fan of trial and error. as long as nothing wipes us out completely (dont think it will, im way too optimistic for that) we need the mistakes. same as crypto. every hack, every nuke, every exploit that gets exposed made this industry stronger. ai works the same way.
ok some infrastructure gets hacked, obviously that sucks. but we always come back. people find solutions to problems and grow through the solutions. been like that forever and its like that again now, nobody can tell me otherwise.
saturday, and once again i'd rather be working.
fresh squeezed orange juice. the feeling of something big coming ahead. some nice kefir. maximum social activities. the knowledge that you only need a few winning trades to make it all back. deeply analysing my mistakes. rabbit holes just for entertainment. grinding in the trenches. comparing the work i have made against the highest quality. just all for the love of the game.
reading this will change your life as a trader
every day i scroll through my timeline and see something "highly important" and "urgent" waiting for me on the next post.
binance hack. cyberwar fears. iran/israel/usa conflict. us midterms. trump. ai bubble fears.
so many things happen at once that you should get as much information as possible around this topic because these things have a negative impact on your portfolio, right?
you sit in silence and watch how freezers in luxembourg get hacked. you see that another oil tanker in hormuz gets absolutely obliterated, even a video pops up. and of course you have to watch it because of the oil prices in your country.
and then the big binance hack, the LARGEST hack this industry has ever seen. everything is down 5-15% in a matter of a few hours. scary to look at. some group pulled 6.3 billion out of an exchange in a matter of 20 minutes.
everything feels like a videogame.
let me tell you something about a concept called "cognitive overload". pretty sure you heard about this once or twice from a friend or a twitter post.
but you thought it's just another stupid "biohack".
your brain has a lot of different parts doing different jobs at the same time. for this you only need to know two of them.
the amygdala is your alarm system. every time your brain sees a "threat", it fires first. it doesn't check if the danger is real, a scary headline on your phone sets it off the same way a real danger would.
cognitive overload is what happens when too much hits you at once. your brain can only hold around four things at the same time, everything on top of that it just skims.
now add fear to it and you get the second problem. something called an "amygdala hijack".
the prefrontal cortex is the part that plans. it's the voice in your head that says "wait, let me think about this for a second".
thing is, once the alarm goes off your head gets flooded with stress chemicals, and the more of them there are, the less your prefrontal cortex can do.
alarm on, thinking off.
so WHY is this important?
if your prefrontal cortex can't do its job, you can't THINK rationally anymore. which leads to wrong and impulsive decisions. you know EXACTLY what im talking about don't fuck with me.
so what do you do about it?
the alarm is gonna go off anyway, thats just how you're built. your brain is literally 10,000 years old. the only thing you control is what you feed it.
everything that shows up on your timeline is one of two things. noise or signal.
next time you catch yourself watching another tanker video or war crime (of course it's horrible but what can you do about it?), ask yourself one thing.
does this post CHANGE your position or stance? does it have crucial information you need to know before you decide what to do?
if the answer is "no", it's noise. simple as that.
take the binance hack for example. did it actually change anything for you? for most of you no, your coins weren't even on binance. the only thing that mattered was the dump. THAT was the signal. and who still talks about the bitget hack from september? exactly. nobody.
the key is to ask the right question. this filters out most of it. the rest is even simpler.
DONT FOLLOW FIVE THOUSAND PEOPLE.
of course you get more bullshit if you follow bullshit.
remember when i said everything feels like a videogame? that's because it's built like one. the longer you play, the more someone else gets paid. the accounts posting every hack in caps know this. they're literally FARMING you.
everything in this world is against you. algos. large entities. elites. you HAVE to filter out noise. otherwise you ngmi.

i agree
like you guys know i am looking at this level for a long time now in our beloved tradfi markets.
nasdaq took quite a hit today.
probably because people realise that dems are not good for the ai infrastructure.
anyways.
for now best thing to do is just to wait for our levels to play out, not trying to rush or force anything.
protect your capital at all costs!
we will get our bull market in crypto soon i promise.

On today's stock market crash:
As an investor, on days like today, you have to ask yourself one question: What fundamentally changed over the last 24 hours?
The shift in the fundamental backdrop cannot be attributed solely to the Midterm Election results; markets had already largely priced in the outcome.
So, what changed between yesterday and today? What is the fundamental reason for today's decline?
One of the most likely catalysts is growing concern about a potential "ban" on AI, or at the very least, severe regulation of the industry.
Over the last 24 hours, Democratic lawmakers have publicly called for restrictions on advanced AI development, including an outright "ban on artificial superintelligence."
Frankly, an outright ban will not happen.
Such a ban, if even possible to enforce, would effectively mean the US surrendering its position in the global AI race to China.
Does this mean AI is "over" or today's stock market crash marks "the end?" Absolutely not.
Rather, we believe we are witnessing a sudden shift in sentiment colliding with excessive levels of leverage, potentially triggering forced liquidations by several major institutional investors.
Therefore, today's downturn is more technical than fundamental. This is not to discount the concerns around regulation, they are legitimate. But price action right now does not look orderly or rational.
We are in the midst of the biggest technological revolution in human history.
Zoom out and remain calm.
at least we have volatility back in the market
and btw how do people even have money left
we liquidated like 15 bil the last two months
i think you guys (and literally whole ct) is severely underestimating @MRTaruncrypto's and my analysis skills (i sometimes even underestimate them too lmao) and x accounts in general.
the amount of value we bring for free should generate you guys a lot of money, even in these tough times, if you act accordingly (i really wanna see you guys winning from the bottom of my heart).
not even exaggerating, just look at my streak the over the last posts, every box gets hit.
and if im wrong i say so!
show some love my beautiful followers 😁
