Hi I'm Boris. I have two decades of experience in the financial markets and I am a level 69 shit posting wizard. I'm not your dad or financial advisor.

[Boris Macro @BorisMacro]

I don't post much about crypto on X, but that is where I made most of my money. But more importantly, crypto is also where I learned most of my technical analysis skills and met some of the most intelligent people I have ever had the privilege of speaking to.

Some of these people have become dear friends and have accomplished amazing things. Some have sadly passed away since. I could write a book about my years in crypto, but I will try to keep this as brief as possible.

I got involved with Bitcoin while the original Satoshi account was still actively posting on the Bitcoin talk forum in 2011. I was still very young, naive but mostly intrigued.

I started posting messages and exchanging thoughts with then still strangers on the internet. There were many IRC channels and infamous BBS forums back then, such as Totse and The Armory, where people were still discussing a variety of topics in a much more free and uncensored or narrative driven manner than we see today. Naturally even back then there were rumors of intelligence involvement, some of which I can confirm.

I received my first bitcoin:native as gifts from different people online that I considered anything between friends and strangers.

I had seen what the financial crisis had done and globally people seemed to be waking up to the reality of the power dynamic and systemic financial risks. Later that year the Occupy Wall Street movement started taking shape. Coincidentally this is also where we saw the uprising of identity politics, more foreign invasions and other divide and conquer strategies being deployed.

I believe that since then crypto started straying from it's original purpose so far that it's become exactly what we did not want. It's now a largely centralized corrupted casino. bitcoin:native supply is largely controlled by government entities and companies such as $MSTR.

The main advantage in crypto when it came to making money was that it was incredibly easy to have an edge on 99% of retail and institutions up until 2021. That combined with extreme volatility rarely ever seen made for a best case scenario for me.

I did buy back my positions and more in 2022, but I already found it much harder to track the enormous influx of new projects. The lifespan became shorter and the market became oversaturated.

Since 2024 I've been saying don't be the gambler, but rather buy the casino. Buying up shares in brokers and even companies like $CRCL seemed like the better Risk/Reward to me during the past two years.

What most people missed is that since 2024 retail has been taking over the majority of stock market trading volume. The last time I checked retail made up roughly 60% of volume compared to 40% of institutional volume. And this ratio is much larger in smaller companies.

Compare this to crypto where institutional volume has been starting to dominate the market. This is something we have never seen before in history. And this is also where the edge and volatility shifted.

That all being said I think the current price action to watch for bitcoin:native is as basic as below chart. Don't overcomplicate things and don't get caught up in the noise.

I started trading in oil when the second Iraq war had recently started in 2004. I have since then traded and invested in a wide variety of assets and commodities.

I was in crypto early enough to get MtGoxed and quit until 2016 when I started aggressively accumulating bitcoin:native and ethereum:native and trading highly volatile altcoins again. Since then I've been socialized on margin, hacked, rugged, scammed and anything else that's possible to lose your crypto as well.

I've seen crypto stray very far from what it was designed to do. From becoming independent of federal reserves and central banks to a casino at best and a largely centralized extraction scam at worst.

I sold off most of my crypto in 2024 and allocated those funds to my stock portfolio, and I'm glad I did. I've debated publishing my positions and strategy for quite a while, but never followed through in any meaningful manner.

It's now been 3 months since I joined X and I have been very pleasantly surprised. I did not expect to get this kind of engagement as a new account. Since joining I have had some great interactions and learned quite a bit myself as well.

As far as this account goes, I believe I've posted quite a decent track record already. I do not delete posts about trades and I post the support levels at which trades are invalidated for me. I won't bore you with overly long AI slop analysis but rather present the facts I believe are relevant for the position. If you have any feedback on my posts or questions please let me know.

Some notable winners since joining March 2026:

$P4O - AT LEAST 150% - 8 weeks (100% in week 1 and traded several times)
$KOPN - 250% - 7 weeks
$POET - 130% - 4 weeks
$ARM - 80% - 7 weeks
$CRDO - 70% - 7 weeks
$ART - 60% - 3 weeks
$USAR - 60% - 8 weeks
$ACUVI - 60% - 1 week
$MTRN - 50% - 8 weeks
$PARRO - 38% - 1 week
$4047 - 30% - 5 weeks
$SPCB - 17% - 1 week
$KGHM - 15% - 4 weeks

Others like $BX, $CZG, $CODI, $NAUT, $XLE and $ARGT.

I sincerely want to thank each and every one of you that followed or engaged with me during this period.

Just a quick update on Laser Photonics. The price for $LASE has respected the 0.382 Fibonacci extension which for now serves as very short term support amidst this very volatile move. Price still remains in the "golden zone" near the end of this trading session, which is typically bullish.

Levels to watch are unchanged I will be looking for a potential higher low to form in this support area.

[Boris Macro @BorisMacro]

@InvestifyDaily Well I posted about it April 16th and yesterday morning I posted it would break out and be volatile. I have posted an EOD chart too.

If we zoom in to the 15M candles we can see just how perfectly price action for $LASE moved and reacted along the Fibonacci extensions only for it to trade up another roughly 70% today.

All the support/resistance zones to watch from here on out are based are marked on the chart.

@jslamat Right and they also supply specialized equipment to companies such as $JNJ among others.

[Boris Macro @BorisMacro]

@Durrutius Yes correct, this and other Robo-Taxi and defense customers. They are ready for mass-production. It's not a company you can fully understand and analyze within an hour though so most people will be late as always.

[Boris Macro @BorisMacro]

$ARBE Robotics is back in my area of interest.

I see some similarities between $LASE and $ARBE. They are both have a very small market cap and benefit from strong tailwinds and macro conditions.

Arbe Robotics recently announced expanding their customer base to the defense industry, which has not yet seen any public follow-up announcements.

You can follow my trades on $ARBE in the series of quoted posts below.

[Boris Macro @BorisMacro]

I've been booking very consistent and predictable returns trading $ARBE so far.

The price rejected exactly at the diagonal resistance I have had marked since January. The 4H chart below has all S/R areas to watch based on volume profile. The 1D chart clearly shows the larger potential move setting up as this wedge pattern eventually gives in.

I've mentioned it before in DMs, but $ARBE $0.5 August 21 calls have been trading at or below premium for the longest time.

[Boris Macro @BorisMacro]

@Ud197601 I like it here, especially if it shows reaction in this support zone. But overall the market is red so it might not be the day yet. Once the wedge pattern breaks I'm definitely adding in size.

[Boris Macro @BorisMacro]

Well I did say Laser Photonics would be volatile when it breaks out from the patterns I marked...

$LASE is up another 45% in pre-market trading on top of yesterday's rally. The price is currently testing the 0.236 Fibonacci extension which also correlates with the S/R zone dating back to November 2025.

It's going to be an interesting day indeed.

[Boris Macro @BorisMacro]

@HedgebergCom Nicely done! I just noticed your original post. Looks like we were watching the exact same breakout. Great minds :P

Trading 101: Conditional orders

I want to be a trader but I also want to fuck my partner and raise my children. Did I mention I still have to file my taxes and I have a birthday this weekend?

Good. Me too.

Nothing motivates a person more than their family. Don't ever lose sight of what is truly important in life. Time is the only real currency we have, you can't assess it's current PL and it can not be bought back.

This is where conditional orders come in. I manage 50-60 spot and 5-10 option positions simultaneously at all times. Also, I do have a life and a family.

In the replies to one of my previous post I mentioned the "touch grass" strategy for this stock.

Conditional buys are one of the most underused instruments by Retail traders. While we all know about risk management I don't see many people talking about determining their entries ahead of time.

I will try to outline this as simple as possible, because there is no need to overcomplicate things.

Step 1: Confirmation

For $XFAB specifically I said that I would add to my position in size as soon as the price manages to cross over the diagonal resistance. For me this marks the confirmation point at which the trading setup becomes active.

Step 2: Conditional buys

In this case at the time of replying the confirmation would be when the price crosses the level just below $11. Hence I would be willing to add to my position once that level was breached. I enter a buy when price hits 11.xx order and also simultaneously enter it's stop loss so my risk is controlled.

Step 3: Touch grass

I don't keep staring at the chart. Instead I move on to the next position, or do something useful with my time.

Step 4:

Wife: Oh honey, the fridge is making those strange noises again?
Me: Fuck.... there goes my afternoon.

So just to update this: Technical wise the price tested the Fibonacci extension at 12.60. The weekly Support/Resistance area marked is based on Volume Profile Analysis and would be the main area to watch for support.

With @aleabitoreddit covering it, the EU Chip Act and other potential catalysts this could continue it's run once the price consolidates.

[Boris Macro @BorisMacro]

@napoleon21st I'm typically 80% spot and 20% options.

[Boris Macro @BorisMacro]

Laser Photonics, or $LASE. This company caught my attention on this breakout. Tailwinds are in the name alone but I'd consider this a very high risk/reward position in a micro-cap company.

[Boris Macro @BorisMacro]

Well for numerous reasons I won't disclose my total amounts in a public online setting. That being said this is the first time I posted about it on April 16. I posted about adding yesterday morning before it broke out.

You can imagine I might have hypothetically made some money on this company.

[Boris Macro @BorisMacro]

@napoleon21st I have a pinned post that I would consider a decent write-up about this if I may say so myself, being a very early crypto adopter.

@napoleon21st About to? Just wait until market opens today 😆

[Boris Macro @BorisMacro]

@Zackfisher I posted an updated chart. It'll be an interesting day.

[Boris Macro @BorisMacro]

My last post for today. $LASE finished the day up 160%, but is still continuing it's massive rally in after-market trading where it's up another 11% as of typing this.

June 12 $1.5 calls went up 10.700% in a single trading session from the bottom of a literal penny.

Let's see what the morning brings for Laser Photonics. The levels to watch are the Fibonacci extensions and longer term Support/Resistance zones based on Volume Profile.

I hope you are entertained.

[Boris Macro @BorisMacro]

As I said in my previous posts about $LASE trading options, especially on micro-cap companies is not for the faint of heart.

This does however illustrate why timing entries and technical analysis, also known to some people as magic crayon drawings, does in fact matter. It's not just which company you buy, but also when and at what price.

Regardless of whether your long term strategy plays out buying a stock at a good entry price gives you room to protect your capital as soon as possible. Also the relatively small difference in position size will compound over time if your thesis plays out.
