@jainmitesh1985 Fair point

But it's already happening in practice. And regardless, the leverage is real.

Even if the hype settles, people who know how to use AI effectively will still outperform others.

Kaafi competitive ho gaya hai. AI is becoming the new baseline skill 🥲

At this stage, most people in this community already understand the importance of critical thinking, so this may not need to be said.

But when governments suggest keeping a few days' worth of essentials, it's usually wise to think in terms of weeks to months, not days. Resilience is rarely regretted.

Over the coming years, instability, whether economic, geopolitical, technological, or social, is unlikely to disappear. Systems are becoming more complex, more interconnected, and therefore more fragile.

That means disruptions can spread faster and last longer than many expect. Millions of people understand the importance of preparing for turbulence. Even if that sounds like a large number, it's still a tiny fraction of the global population.

Preparation doesn't require panic. It requires foresight. Practical steps are simple:

▫️Maintain a reserve of essential supplies [food, water, basic necessities]

▫️Keep cash, for when digital systems fail temporarily.

▫️Maintain a financial buffer and stay ahead on bills where possible.

▫️Reduce dependency on systems that require constant connectivity.

Modern society runs on continuous connections such as power, internet, banking, logistics. If those systems are disrupted, even temporarily, many people will struggle simply because they never considered the possibility.

Major cyber attacks on critical infrastructure are not a matter of if, but when. Preparation is simply choosing not to rely on everything working perfectly all the time.

@SK1onX Total 87 trades on 20th? Automated or you manually executed those? 😯

[Anurag @Anurag0618]

@iManasArora Hii

Could you give a few examples of the things/flows/process you'd like to automate? What are the pain points?

[Arpit Bhayani @arpit_bhayani]

Deleting a large number of rows (say, a million) in a single query feels efficient. It is not. It can crush your database.

When we run a large DELETE in one go, the database has to hold locks on every row it touches for the entire duration of the operation. If it takes 30 seconds to run, those locks are held for 30 seconds. Every other query that needs those rows is stalled, waiting.

On busy systems (high query or update load), this has a ripple effect. Reads pile up, writes get blocked, and your connection pool starts getting exhausted. This cleanup job will likely become a production incident :)

There's also the transaction log (WAL) to think about. A massive DELETE generates a huge amount of log data in one shot, which can spike disk I/O and slow down replication. Your replicas can fall behind, sometimes significantly.

The fix is pretty simple - batch your deletes.

DELETE ... WHERE ... LIMIT 1000, then sleep for a small interval, then repeat. It's slower in wall-clock time, but the locks are short-lived, the log writes are spread out, and your database stays responsive throughout.

Fun fact: Databases cannot protect you from yourself :) This is one of those things you learn once, usually the hard way. Don't ask me how I did :)

[ZERO IKA 🗡️ @IamZeroIka]

Financial markets open your eyes to the raw reality of how rotten this world is. (Epstein's files don't surprise me)

Take the 📘💊 blue pill and you keep believing that markets are neutral telling yourself that if price goes up it must "deserve it".

Take the 🔴💊red pill and you realize that price is simply the outcome of decisions made in private rooms where capital always outweighs citizenship.

1⃣In 2008, after the collapse triggered by toxic mortgage securitization, foreclosures in the United States surged into the millions.

Families were removed from homes by court order while the institutions that packaged and distributed the underlying risk were stabilized through emergency liquidity facilities and taxpayer-funded bailouts.

The calculus was explicit: systemic banks were “too big to fail” but households were not.

Stability of the financial architecture took precedence over the security of individual lives.

Evictions, bankruptcies, mental health crises, and documented increases in stress-related mortality followed in communities hit hardest by foreclosure waves.

2⃣During the European sovereign debt crisis, particularly in Greece after 2010, bond yields soared and bailout programs were conditioned on severe austerity.

Public health budgets were cut immediately.
Hospitals faced shortages of supplies.
Unemployment spiked above 25%, youth unemployment far higher.
Academic studies later documented increases in depression, suicide rates, and reduced access to medical care.

Fiscal consolidation satisfied creditor demands and stabilized bond spreads, but the social cost was measurable in deteriorating health outcomes and lost livelihoods.

3⃣Commodity speculation was no different.

In the run-up to the 2007–2008 global food price crisis, wheat and corn prices climbed dramatically amid supply shocks and increased participation in futures.

For investors, volatility in agricultural contracts represented tradable opportunity.

For low-income and import-dependent countries, food inflation translated into unrest and hunger.

Food riots erupted in multiple regions.

--------------------------------------------------------

The bottom line is that none of these episodes require a secret cabal.

When return is the only thing that matters, everything that doesn’t show up in profits gets ignored.

If austerity keeps bond markets calm but weakens public healthcare, the system still calls it a success.

If someone makes money speculating on food prices while hunger rises somewhere else, the profit is recorded, the suffering is not.

Human lives are rarely attacked directly, but they are often pushed aside.

The system is built to protect solvency, liquidity, and yield.

If that protection requires foreclosures, layoffs, cuts to healthcare, or less investment in public services, the mechanism doesn’t stop.

Markets can create wealth and growth but those who control the world will turn crises and vulnerability into profit opportunities.

The 4 Stages of Mastery (Trading Edition)

Unconscious Incompetence:

You’re gambling and don’t know it.
You blame “manipulation”, the government, and the news.
You lose consistently, with a few moments of random success, making you think you are close.

You are not.

Conscious Incompetence:

You’ve read the books and study the right sources.
You know the manual, but you still can’t drive the car.
You see your mistakes, but you make them anyway.

This stage is painful and hard.
You’re forced to face your inner demons and work through all the things you postponed your entire life. Most people are stuck in this stage, and the only escape is time, consistency, and intention.

You start to see the first light at the end of the tunnel, yet most give up here because of the immense rejection.

Conscious Competence:

Execution is a grind.
You still have to fight your ego every minute.
It’s exhausting and time-consuming, but you’re profitable.

Once you reach this stage, things become fun again.
You occasionally enter flow states, which are rewarding on their own.

Unconscious Competence:

Mastery.
You and the chart are one.
You no longer try to trade. You just execute.
Flow becomes second nature.
You don’t think, you act instinctively.

These four stages are applicable to every skill you want to master.
The majority is stuck in stages 1–2, regardless of the skill.
Only the most disciplined and consistent ever reach stage 3 in anything in their lives.

The gap between stages 3 and 4 is the biggest for most skills.
The jump from a competent athlete to a true professional or master is exponential.

Reaching mastery requires full commitment and sacrifice, and often comes down to whether someone is willing to give up other areas of life.

In trading, the most difficult step is leaving stage 2, because stage 2 feels like hell to most. There is no physical reward or sensation. It’s all mental. The reward comes from being able to see your own progress in the face of constant rejection. Once you’re in Stage 3, things start to flow and naturally push you in the right direction anyway.

That said, most don’t even leave stage 1 because of the immense amount of misleading information in this space.

Which stage are you in?

[Bull 👑 @altbullx]

In the early days of crypto, the market moved very cleanly.

Retail traders had real opportunities to make money. Volatility was high, manipulation was low, and even average traders could grow their capital.

$BTC went from $1k to $20k, and many altcoins did 20x–100x.

It was simple.

But after 2021, everything changed.

Governments, institutions, ETFs, and big funds entered crypto.

Regulations increased. Taxes came in. Exchanges became controlled. Algorithms and bots started dominating price action.

Now the market is no longer retail-friendly.

It is designed for professionals.

That is why:

Breakouts fail more often

Stop-loss hunting is common

Price moves are slower and more calculated

Emotional traders lose quickly

And most importantly…

Altcoins are not performing anymore.

Main reasons:

Institutional money goes only into Bitcoin, not altcoins. ETFs buy BTC, not small caps.

Too many new tokens – supply is unlimited, demand is limited.

VC dumping after every small pump.

Retail capital is weaker because of losses, taxes, and strict regulations.

Market makers control liquidity and rotate money much slower.

Earlier, money flowed from BTC → ETH → Altcoins.

Now, it mostly stays in Bitcoin.

That is why even in strong BTC rallies, most altcoins remain 60–90% down from their highs.

Reality is simple:

Crypto is no longer an easy money market.
It is a high-skill financial market.

And in the coming years, it will become even harder for retail traders.

The easy phase is over.
The survival phase has started.

@iManasArora @gchavda_tr This is a good beginner course if you want to try Python: Automate the Boring Stuff with Python https://t.co/OEPKHmVjtJ

[Anurag @Anurag0618]

@iManasArora @gchavda_tr For automation, you can start with no-code tools (Power Automate, UiPath, n8n) to get the idea of how workflows work.

If you’re okay learning a bit of coding later, Python is great for automation (Excel, files, emails, etc.) & makes using AI tools much easier.

[Anurag @Anurag0618]

@iManasArora What's your goal with this?
Learning for fun, or to build something specific?
And current level of experience with coding?

[Anurag @Anurag0618]

@MoneyTaura @tradingview Honestly, I don't have a song to share.

I prefer silence while charting and in the gym. I like the complete focus, whether analyzing markets or strengthening that mind-muscle connection during training. No distractions, just pure concentration.

Appreciate the opportunity! 🙏

[Anurag @Anurag0618]

@Tech_Tycoon Good for me. As I'll be coming back for that mentorship.
