I started just before the 2021 Bitcoin top, lost money in the FTX collapse and had to rebuild from scratch.
Rebuilding my trading account taught me the order that matters: Process first. Risk managed. Profit later!
I'm Sem, a Price Action Trader from the Netherlands.
I worked weekend shifts for 2.5 years so I could trade Monday to Friday and build my trading process, all while raising a family with my wife.
I trade based on:
Structure • Liquidity • Risk.
Mainly Swing Failure Patterns (SFPs) on bitcoin:native and ethereum:native
On X I share my framework, charts, trades and the lessons I learned along the way. Let's talk about it!

There you'll find my full trading process (STOS) explained step by step, my journey, and 2 downloads: my E-book and the Excel trade journal I personally use.
Everything is 100% free:
No signups. No referral links.
No paywall, it's zero monetization!
When I started trading I learned from traders who shared openly and freely. This is me paying it forward.
Nothing I post is financial advice!
It's just the trading process that works for me.

The chart also shows that i take profit on structural points in the price chart based on previous levels.
Because now my take profit 1 is perfect resistance and take profit 2 is support where it bounced for this new local range.

So far it looks like i closed my Ethereum short on the pico bello bottom lmao, insanity! 👀
Fully closed my $ETH short! 🫡
Stoploss: 2388
Entry: 2355
Take profit 1: 2250
Take profit 2: 2175
Risk / Rward: 4.38 average
R/R TP 1: 3.23
R/R TP 2: 5.54
What a banger trade this was, my execution was spot on and i called what i would do before it actually happend in every post update.
Added 50% size when it came back to my entry and failed the retest of the high wick resistance pocket.
Took take profit 2 a bit earlier than plannend, because i could not actively manage the trade anymore and did not want it to reverse on me while afk.
Tbh im just super proud of how i managed this trade and called it live, its my best trade of the month.
If you want to know exactly how i trade with full on explainers, check my website.
There im sharing my entire framework for free, no strings attached, zero affiliation, zero monetization, not even an e-mail sign up.
Just my way of giving back to the trading community! 🫡
Appreciate you all!
A target can become a place to watch. It is not automatically the next entry.
When a long reaches resistance, a short there still needs its own failed push and its own risk check.
Do you treat your target as a new entry, or as a new question?
Where the work happens.
No signals. No predictions. Just levels, sweeps and the response at the retest.
That desk is where I mark the levels and wait for the retest.

GM.
You don't have to trade my setup.
But every plan should answer the same questions:
Where do I pay attention?
What must happen before entry?
What makes me pass or exit?
What stops the session?
How will I check the result?
If someone else can't understand your plan without seeing how the trade ended, it isn't finished yet.
Borrow the questions. Write your own rules.
Wow, 5,6 bilion stolen? 🤯
Like actually?!
BREAKING: World's largest crypto exchange Binance hacked with over $5.6 billion stolen:
• $1.45 billion $BTC
• $875 million $ETH
• $234 million $TRX
• $50 million $XAUT
• $1.57 billion $USDT
• $823 million $USDC
• $75 million $WBETH
• $88.5 million $RLUSD
+ $447.5 million additional cryptocurrencies
This is the largest hack in crypto history.
Oh shit, thats why we dropped 🫠
Hope everything will turn out alright.
INTEL: The Binance exploiter still holds 18,270.2 BTC worth approximately $1.44B across 19 Bitcoin wallets.
None of the BTC has been sold so far.
17 wallets hold 1,000 BTC each
Wallet 18 holds 832.5 BTC
Wallet 19 holds 437.7 BTC
Another $1.44B in Bitcoin remains untouched, alongside the exploiter’s substantial altcoin holdings. Any movement or attempted liquidation of these BTC reserves will be closely watched.

Maybe, im looking for this tbh, am already short from 2355. Stop above sweep 2390.
Lets see what we get 😏
Eth short TP 1 has been hit 😏
Doubled my size from the original short of yesterday when it came back to test my entry area.
Closed 50% on profit 1.
Now lets see if we get to profit 2 or reverse a bit here.
In a downtrend, a long can still make sense.
It may only target the next resistance. I don't ask a small long for a full trend reversal just because I want a bigger winner.
Do your targets fit the move you trade, or the move you hope for?
Such a hero, also best friends with Gandalf i heard, he will be missed on and off the screens, the end of an era!
RIP 🙏
All of us at Marvel Studios are deeply saddened by the passing of Sir Patrick Stewart. Sir Patrick brought Professor Charles Xavier to life with extraordinary grace, intelligence, and humanity, defining the character for generations of fans, from "X-Men" to "Logan" to "Avengers: Doomsday." He was a singular talent, a generous collaborator, and a true gentleman. Our hearts go out to his wife Sunny, his children, his friends, and the countless fans around the world whose lives he touched with his art.
