Halloween 2026:
👻 Coin ghost: "I'll be back next quarter"
🧟 Dead alt: "not dead, just resting"
💀 My portfolio: staring into the void
The real horror: someone posts "gm" at 4am
and 200 people reply "gm"

TL;DR:
R-multiple, not dollars
Time in trade
Context at entry
Rule violations
Emotional cost
The journal isn't for remembering trades.
It's for finding your patterns.
Drop a 🧠 if this hit home.
I write about trading psychology because charts don't need therapy — traders do.

Your trading journal is lying to you.
You track P&L. You track wins and losses.
But you're not tracking what actually matters.
Here's the 5 metrics that change everything. 🧵

Mark Douglas, "Trading in the Zone":
"Your beliefs become your results."
Most traders track results.
Very few track beliefs.
The journal should show you who you were,
not just what you earned.

Me explaining to my girlfriend why I lost money in 10 minutes
Me: "it's the market"
Her: "it's you"
She's been trading longer than me.
And she's not even in crypto. 😐

FOMC day.

"Cools will be decided by the candles"
Nobody knows. Nobody has ever known.
We just refresh and pretend we do.

494k $HYPE ($37.8M) just walked into coinbase. three linked wallets, 24h.

meanwhile the assistance fund bids every block. one side has a bag to unload, the other has a protocol printing fees into buybacks.

and abraxas is sitting on $1.29B in HL shorts as a hedge, already $353M up. not a bet on the dump, but it's supply that doesn't care about your narrative.

the chart is the only thing that settles it:

$75–77 has eaten 6 daily wicks since oct 18. lowest wick $74.36 on oct 24, bought every time.
same zone held in mid sep, then we ran to $97.8.
$82.5 has capped every bounce since oct 13.

close below $75 and shit gets ugly.

reclaim $82.5 and the whale sold you the bottom.

Books that changed my trading:
📚 Taleb → stopped predicting, started preparing
📚 Marcus Aurelius → stopped reacting, started responding
📚 Richest Man in Babylon → started taking profit
📚 Tarasov → started playing consciously
Charts teach you where to enter, books - stay

[Juninho | Trading Psychology @evgenvolken]

Tarasov: Most people live reactively. They react to what happens.
Reactive trader: sees red candle → sells
Conscious trader: sees red candle → checks rules → decides
The gap between react and decide?
That's where fortunes are made
It's a 2-second gap
Most people don't have it

Kelp announces 88% APY.
1.6 million views on CT.
Everyone's excited about the number.
Nobody asks: "Where does 88% come from?"
High yield = high risk.
Always. Without exception.
The question isn't: "Is this real?"
The question is: "What's the risk I'm not seeing?"

In football, you can't control the referee.
You can control your positioning.
In trading, you can't control the CPI.
You can control your position size.
Focus on what you control.
Accept what you don't.
That's not just trading psychology.
That's Stoicism 101.

The lesson isn't: "crypto is a scam."
The lesson isn't: "this one guy was bad."
The lesson is: when someone promises guaranteed returns in crypto, run.
Guaranteed returns = guaranteed someone else's exit liquidity.
