Financial Markets

[Alexander @TwelveEighteenn]

To achieve results — in boxing, business, love, art, trading, or any other field — you need the ability to work with focus and intention every single day, to grind like there’s no tomorrow, with genuine enjoyment and enthusiasm.

Sporadic, weak, half-hearted, miserable, inconsistent, and unsystematic actions lead either to mediocrity or to nothing at all — while draining a lot of energy. That’s exactly how most people live.

So before you commit to anything in life, understand this: you’ll have to do it a lot, often, systematically, and consistently. And for that, nothing should be allowed to distract you.

I’m back in the game
— back in the markets.

Balancing it with work and my thesis defense next month.

@jeeniuz It's really easier to say that than to explain what you actually do

@Globalflows A gun to shoot myself with

@jeeniuz Psycho

[Alexander @TwelveEighteenn]

@jeeniuz To be fair, the data varies, it’s often either overestimated or underestimated. But I also think it’s close to that

[Alexander @TwelveEighteenn]

@jeeniuz Sadly, it’s a fact

@fttcceo @wannabechamp 😂😂

[Alexander @TwelveEighteenn]

@jeeniuz Under your posts? Or just in general?

@theparthrastogi As a rule, these are also businesses with a high risk–reward ratio.
At the very least, I know this is definitely true for trading, as well as the hotel and restaurant industries.

I am starting my bachelor’s qualification thesis on the topic of the impact of cryptocurrency exchanges on the Web3 economy.

I am not deeply specialized in this field and my academic background is somewhat different, but the topic is genuinely interesting to me. In any case, it is highly relevant today and will likely remain relevant in the future.

So, the market crushed me and threw me out.
All I’m trying to do is get back in the game, but every attempt fails. Literally.
Trading doesn’t feel the way it did 2–3 years ago. Right now, for me, it’s just an endless cycle of failures, losing all sense.

The problem isn’t trading itself, of course. I need to get back that state of mind, that way of perceiving things, and then something will work. For now, though, I’m just swallowing crap.

I’ve got at least a month and a half to do a full reset: try to rebuild the base, go through all the trades, and sort everything out.

Скоро будет 24 февраля — 4 года полномасштабного вторжения в Украину.

Я считаю, что лучше оставить тот день для полной поддержки украинцев. Украине нужно много помощи — чтобы продолжать защищаться и чтобы минимизировать человеческие страдания от атак на жилые дома, энергосистему и т. д. Сегодня выскажу своё мнение с точки зрения будущего России.

Я смотрю на эту ситуацию частично с внутренней и частично с внешней перспективы. Я родился в России, моя семья вся русская, но вырос я в Канаде. Политическую ситуацию я всё время наблюдал. В 2017 году даже послал Навальному один биткоин, но сильно вовлечён не был. Я слежу за ситуацией через интернет, как все. И у меня есть свои политические инстинкты после 15 лет в крипте и всякой борьбы в Твиттере (Иксе?). У каждого есть право меня слушать или не слушать — как хотите.

Здесь напишу две части:

1. Почему я поддерживаю Украину и говорю, что эта война — преступная агрессия, а не «сложная ситуация, где обе стороны вели себя грязно», как говорят некоторые?
2. Про будущее: сегодняшний «тупик», идея «мира с народом России», и на основе каких идей может быть создано более положительное будущее России, и правильная роль идей «децентрализации», «цифровой демократии» и.т.д.

Holy fucking shit.

A Shahed drone with a warhead crashed like 100 meters from me, right behind the supermarket.
Haven’t run into this kind of shit in a long time.

@jeeniuzz Maduro is a real piece of shit,
— a dictator and a friend of the russians (which is not surprising)
The guys did a great job. Venezuela deserves a democratic leader.

[Alexander @TwelveEighteenn]

@jeeniuzz Well, at least in the video you look happy, haha

[Alexander @TwelveEighteenn]

@sam_kb_ This is so relatable haha

[Alexander @TwelveEighteenn]

@jeeniuzz It’s all one big machine promoting LGBT, gender-neutral, rainbow, eco-friendly, positive folks.
Netflix’s acquisition of Warner Bros is upsetting

@alexxo Pavel Durov’s morning process is literally 300 push-ups and 300 squats, haha
