a brief pause for myself Started becoming profitable with a $300 solana wallet and less than 500 followers, around 2.5 years ago. Now I'm riding 6fig positions in another emerging bull market and somehow my follower count also grew over 100x in that same period, just from posting my trading journey and framework every single day. Thank you for following. It's becoming less about making more money now, trading the best narratives based on thesis work and posting this content have become part of what fulfills me in life. Whatever comes next in life, I feel happy and grateful for the opportunity the financial markets have given me. I'm 32 now and I have to say, in those two and a half years, I've achieved an incredible amount. For the fast paced new generation, my bank account hit zero at the end of every month until I was 29 and life was still good regardless. The perception of time here on CT is completely different from reality. People think everything has to happen instantly, within the same year. No. Just start posting, start trading, start building. Learn every single day, put in the hours and with time, compounding, and the learning curve, you'll find your own rhythm and naturally get better at reading market dynamics or building a lifelong skillset. I started this journey with the inner drive to prove to everyone that I'd make it in trading, that I could achieve financial independence and that everyone who doubted me would eventually see just how successful I'd become. Now I've arrived at a state of inner balance, of knowing what I'm capable of and the freedom that comes with it, free from external pressures and other people's opinions. This is my life and my focus is set on this path. All the negative emotions and thoughts that come at me from the outside no longer have any effect on me. Years of hard work built the personality and skillset to simply smile through it all now. And that's a good feeling. I don't have to prove anything to anyone and no one around me needs to know how successful I am. True success and this is something I've learned over the years, is being at peace with yourself, internally, on your own terms. I know this goal, becoming financially independent through trading, is a dream for a lot of young people, which is why I try to share as much of my framework as possible on this account. But you have to put in those insane amounts of work hours while your friends and family are enjoying their weekends. That part is non negotiable. Never give up. Hard work always pays off. Grind through the incredibly demanding, mind bending first stage. I genuinely hope you'll make it and if it's not through trading, then in some other area of life.

experienced it all myself i was torn up inside, caught in an emotional downward spiral. i traded my ports to zero more than once, watched countless onchain investments go to nothing and sat there desperate with an empty bank account. i've been through almost everything you can go through in trading, emotionally and financially. what mattered most was always to keep going, stay optimistic and not give in to my emotions or blame anything other than my own execution when things didn't work out. the moment you blame outside circumstances, you hand over responsibility and with it you lose the drive to make it, bc you'll always find something external to blame for what happens in your life.

the boring path is the profitable one in the age of AI, inflation and bad news every week, young traders constantly feel pressured to make money as fast as possible and break free from it all. but that pressure is exactly what makes them break their own rules and principles, work against long term profitability and undermine the very framework of building wealth through compounding. the hard truth is that this has been a generous and profitable year so far, but most of CT isn't attentive or patient enough. that's why sentiment is chopped into pieces. traders with capital aren't taking HTF spot positions and mostly rotate back and forth after the market has already legged up. those still in the capital building phase aren't profiting enough onchain, bc too many refuse to take profits and off ramp into the high liquidity phases we've seen on robinhood chain. they hold out of the urge to make more as fast as possible, driven by the need to change their lives in a single year. the lesson is to execute more calmly and build an always selling mindset into momentum phases. the disciplined approach is compounding smaller profitable trades into a growing stack of cash every year, not rushing to time it perfectly and trying to hit it big every time. after weeks of overtrading and rotating back and forth, feeling restless despite knowing exactly which rules to follow, it can help to take a breath and look at the framework from the outside. find where to slow down and be less aggressive. slow wealth building is more boring, but it's what brings stability to trading and wealth long term.

full bull #TOTAL (1D)

Gm ☕️ about a third of the S&P 500 reports earnings, including microsoft, alphabet and amazon. FOMC decision on wednesday, Q3 GDP and PCE on thursday. midterms follow next tuesday. watching crypto for momentum reversal have a profitable week

decision time $CASHCAT (1D)

basically, it’s always you vs you not trading into the weekly close expecting a more volatile week ahead, so I’m mostly observing for now enjoy the rest your sunday

would buy more $ONDO if this wedge resolves to the upside going to be a decisive week overall. time to pay closer attention again soon

my current thought process is simple. we’re in an uptrend structure, now correcting and the consensus is turning bearish. I’m not the type to be full bull at the highs and then turn bearish into the potential lows spot and chill #TOTAL3ES (1D)

a healthy body supports a healthy mind a healthy mind supports profitable trading that's why daily training is a key part of a solid trading mindset and pays off in the long run. it sounds like common sense and I've experienced it many times in my life, but a lot of traders still don't treat it with the discipline and consistency it deserves focus

if you have athletic goals for 2027, whether it’s your body or a race, now is a great time to start. no need to wait for january

very satisfied with my $CASHCAT trade so far let's see if this daily wedge resolves to the upside still holding a size I'm comfortable with and doing basically nothing after selling into the highs one or two trades like this a year can be enough if you execute them right. it's all about timing and having the guts to keep selling into momentum

full injective support with multiple bull posts for a 1m meme coin, a flag structure like this and the team meeting white house officials to push tokenization efforts further. that makes it one of only two onchain setups I feel relatively comfortable bidding right now, next to the CASHCAT wedge. next move probably depends on INJ, STONK and majors strength into the weekly close. onchain conditions are rough, so let's see if clean structures like this can still resolve to the upside once momentum turns $NINJACAT (12H)

my morning routine as a full time trader - crypto no alarm, I wake up naturally the first hour belongs to me, not my phone, water, some prep and time to think about training, trading, life goals and today's to dos. basically always a clear head first, screens later coffee, macbook and studio display. three tabs open, X, tradingview and fomo first I run through my tradingview watchlist to read the market. TOTAL, BTC, ETH, SOL... where's the strength, where's the weakness then X. with the market overview in mind I scroll my following feed over coffee to catch news, sentiment and momentum,sometimes I add bloomberg for the macro then fomo to see what the main onchain coins are doing right now and get a feel for the day's dynamics is there a trade? if the altcoin HTF shows a setup with relative strength, I drop to the LTF and build a setup that fits my framework if majors and sentiment are shifting, I look for the narrative onchain and maybe take a trade if neither, no trade two focused hours, done then I step away from the screens. good playlist on, first training session of the day. run, swim, bike or gym shower, dress well, start the day no overtrading out of boredom, no staring at screens all day. the market already gets my best two hours. more after lunch, but only if sentiment, momentum and dynamics line up with my framework with experience, less becomes more. what matters is staying consistent and close to the market every day trading like this keeps me focused, balanced and happy in body and mind on top of that, I create content like this almost every day to document and share my trading journey but the most important thing is building your own routine around your edge. one that keeps you healthy in body and mind and lets you trade sustainably for years
