$EDSA
Came across this stock in Feb and I did not buy..
February- $1.55
May- $17+
10x in less than 3 months!
Avoided market open, found an entry @ $11.99 on the 5min chart. Again, raised my s/l too quickly and got stopped out.
Profit- £500-ish and lost out on +£1k.
$CRML
3 entries, 3 lessons:
1) Entry on 5min candle high upon open, did not work (noise).
2) Made an entry on 30min candle (off 8EMA), but raised my s/l too quickly.
3) Made an entry again @ $12.59, but fat-fingered a limit sell.
Profit- £400-ish and lost out on +£1.5k.
Principles going forward:
- Max 1-2 trades/week, less over-trading
- Max 1% risk
- Theme-selective stocks
- Weekly chart for overall trend, daily chart for entry; top-down approach
- No entries in first 30mins-1hr of market open
- EOD entries ideally
- No journal? No entry!

YTD -20.6%
Need to change my approach to get a different set of results, so it’s back to multi-day/week swings, looking @ weekly charts to see the bigger picture and max 1% risk/trade.
SUNDAY UPDATE #80
- $IREN liquidated for a £200 loss
- $OKTA may also go next week
- $BMNR struggling to break the $23 mark
- $EOSE closed above 50EMA daily, so will probably pick up some more next week. $PBW/clean energy theme seems bullish too.
- $TSSI just keeps sending 🚀
SUNDAY UPDATE #79
- Finally DCA’d into $BMNR and $IREN *AFTER* the market turned bullish 🤦♂️
- $TSSI is too dench
- $OKTA might need to go soon, we’ll see over the next few weeks
$IREN looks ready for the breakout
-RS 98
- Solid theme- datacentre/bitcoin mining heating up; see $CRWV, $WULF
- 8/21 EMA weekly crossover
- 3 white soldiers forming on the weekly
$SIDU
Finally made an entry, after it first came to my attention at $2.
Peaked at +£1k profit, sold just under a 1/3 into strength (finally) and the rest hit breakeven.
$350million MC & 20%+ ADR, not for the faint-hearted.
SpaceX IPO approaching, potential 2-4x from here? 🕰️
Turns out that *WAS* the bottom?
- $QQQ 8/21 EMA daily crossover
- $VIX <20
- Extreme fear to greed in a matter of weeks
Today's pre-market looking red which just might be the imminent pullback that was bound to happen+ the Strait of Hormuz is closed again🤦♂️
@FootballCapsule Wa'alaykum salam,
Not keen to DCA just yet when we might even go lower
$VIX is @ 30+.. it peaked at 50+ last year
8/21 EMA crossover on the $QQQ my go-signal too
$BMNR the priority to DCA, others not so much (should've put S/L on!)
Best position in this market? No position!
$AXTI
The 8-weekly EMA pullback @ it again.
Missed a re-entry as it sliced through, but where did it bounce off? 50EMA on the daily.
+100% since that bounce in 2 weeks.
$AXTI
Bought the pullback to the 8-weekly EMA but I didn’t have the confidence to hold the risk overnight, a very volatile stock. Aggressive profit taking it is.
+£367.39 profit
The market keeps teaching me 3 lessons that I'm too stubborn to take heed on. Let me spell it out for you:
1. Never marry your bags.
2. Sell into strength.
3. Respect your stop-loss (especially once you're in profit!)
Space theme is just getting started imo.
$UFO HVE candle and RS new high on weekly.
Keeping an eye on the very low-mid market caps
$SIDU $ASTI $MNTS easy 2-4x from here till SpaceX IPO in June/July 2026? We shall see.
High-risk, high-reward.

$FSLY
Round-tripped +£1.4k profit to a -£3.5k loss.
Hindsight bias- increased selling volume+ sloping 8/21EMA downwards.
A decent entry on 30min chart, not daily.
DCA'd too soon on the 13th, but it sliced through the 50EMA day after anyway.
Poor trade, poor risk-management.
$CRML
Sold for a paper cut -£100 after the stock flew +40% on Friday.
My only annoyance is that I hawked the stock for weeks, waited for it to bottom and I didn’t pull the trigger!
Will probably go even higher but I’m content with recuperating the capital.

SUNDAY UPDATE #78
Took up a position in $FSLY on Thursday, was up by +£1.4k within hours but we are now -20%!
Some reflections:
- Massive sell-off following Claude mythonos news
- Did not sell into strength (again)
- 50% of position on S/L just above break-even hit.. (1/2)
