The 5 Stages Of A Trader’s Development

From Mark Douglas, Trading in the Zone. Reply with what stage you honestly think you're in.

🧵(1/5)

[Daye @traderdaye]

Ever wondered how ICT got the times of his killzones?

18.00 - 00.00 (Asian Session) 6hrs*
00.00 - 06.00 (London Session) 6hrs*
06.00 - 12.00 (NY Session) 6hrs*
12.00 - 18.00 (PM Session) 6hrs*

24hrs added together.

Now... if you divide 6hrs by 4 you'll get 90mins.

Q1: 18.00 - 19.30 | Q2: 19.30 - 21.00 | Q3: 21.00 - 22.30 | Q4: 22.30 - 00.00 (90min Cycles of the Asian Session)

Q1: 00.00 - 01.30 | Q2: 01.30 - 03.00 | Q3: 03.00 - 04.30 | Q4: 04.30 - 06.00 (90min Cycles of the London Session)

Q1: 06.00 - 07.30 | Q2: 07.30 - 09.00 | Q3: 09.00 - 10.30 | Q4: 10.30 - 12.00 (90min Cycles of the NY Session)

Q1: 12.00 - 13.30 | Q2: 13.30 - 15.00 | Q3: 15.00 - 16.30 | Q4: 16.30 - 18.00 (90min Cycles of the PM Session)

Do you see the sequence? Q2 - Q3 are where the killzones are for every 90min cycle.

Why? Q2 is mainly used for manipulation, Q3 is mainly used for distribution.

"Rule No. 1: Never lose money. Rule No. 2: Never forget Rule No. 1."

— Warren Buffett

This quote is often taken literally, which misses the point entirely.

Buffett did not mean you will never have a position go down or that losses are somehow avoidable. He has had plenty of investments that declined. What he meant is psychological and structural: never let a loss become catastrophic, and never let ego or emotion turn a manageable mistake into a permanent destruction of capital.

The real lesson has two layers:
Avoid permanent loss of capital. A stock dropping 30% is recoverable. Betting everything on a bad idea, using leverage recklessly, or holding a collapsing position out of pride can wipe out capital you can never get back. That kind of loss breaks the compounding engine entirely.

Protect your ability to stay in the game. If you lose 50% of your capital, you need a 100% gain just to break even. Buffett understood that avoiding large drawdowns matters more than chasing large gains. Compounding only works if the base is protected.

The second rule drives the point home with irony. Rule No. 2 is just Rule No. 1 repeated, which signals that most people hear the advice, nod, and promptly forget it the moment greed or panic takes over. The repetition is the lesson.

In short, Buffett was really saying: capital preservation is not just a defensive strategy, it is the foundation of every great offensive investment strategy.

[MARKET INSIGHTS! @IManghaila]

Your ego has no place in the market.
The market doesn’t care what you think.
It doesn’t care what you want.
And it definitely doesn’t care how “smart” you believe you are.
The moment you stop trying to prove yourself
and start listening to price,
your trading changes.
Pride blows accounts.
Humility protects them.

ALTCOIN SELLING BROKE A 5Y RECORD.

But isn't that bullish when you think?

Sellers are exhausted when it comes to Altcoins

$TAO is at $240
$ONDO around 30 cents
$SUI just under $1
$INJ at $5
$SEI bottomed at $0.05
$NEAR still in bullish mode

Majority of the room for Alts is now on the upside and your convictions cannot go much wrong in the long run here.

So what happened really? 👇

The buy versus sell volume difference for altcoins, excluding Bitcoin and Ethereum, has fallen to its lowest level since 2020.

That means altcoins have now faced almost 15 consecutive months of net selling pressure.

Most traders see this chart and assume the market is collapsing.

But there is one important question:

Why is the capitulation bigger than 2022, even though sentiment felt equally disastrous back then?

There are three reasons.

→ THE ALTCOIN MARKET IS BIGGER

There are now more tokens, more trading pairs and significantly more liquidity across the market.

A larger market naturally creates larger raw selling numbers when capital exits.

The chart looks worse because the system itself has expanded.

→ THE RALLY WAS ALSO BIGGER

Altcoin buying pushed the cumulative volume difference into positive territory throughout 2024 and early 2025.

That created more profits, leverage and speculative positioning that eventually needed to unwind.

Bigger expansion and flush.

The mechanics remain the same.

→ LEVERAGE HAS INCREASED

Altcoin derivatives volume has grown massively since 2022.

More leverage means liquidations cascade faster, stop-losses trigger harder and volatility gets amplified in both directions.

The selling looks more extreme because the tools magnifying it are now much larger.

But here is what matters:

The last time this metric reached extreme seller exhaustion, it marked the final phase of the 2022 altcoin bottom.

Sellers had already spent months exiting at losses.

Eventually, the supply of panic sellers disappeared.

We may be approaching the same point again.

This does not guarantee that altcoins instantly rally.

But it suggests the market may be closer to completing its capitulation than beginning another one.

This is not necessarily an altcoin market falling apart.

It may be an altcoin market finally finishing the job.

[KING OF LUZANGA - Tola Joseph Fadugbagbe @connectwithtola]

Let’s learn about the SATOR Square.

I learned this as a kid and the words has never departed from my mouth till this day.

This ancient mystery was carved into Roman walls and no one has fully explained why.

Long before now, five words appeared on stones and church walls. The words are:

SATOR
AREPO
TENET
OPERA
ROTAS

In 79 AD, when Mount Vesuvius buried Pompeii (an ancient city in western Italy, south-east of Naples) beneath ash, one of these squares was preserved in time.

What makes it extraordinary?

The words form a perfect grid that can be read left-to-right, right-to-left, top-to-bottom, and bottom-to-top.

🔮 The early Christians are believed to have adopted it as a hidden sign of faith during periods of persecution.

Within these letters, they discovered a secret cross:

PATER NOSTER meaning Our Father.

Written twice, intersecting at the center.

The remaining letters are A and O which stand for Alpha and Omega. This has been a symbols of God’s eternal nature.

✝️ To many, just like myself, the Sator Square became more than a puzzle. It became a symbol of divine order in a chaotic world.

A reminder that God remains present from every direction, every season, every beginning and ending.

How to use the words during crisis?

When it seems that all hopes are gone, whisper them slowly.

SATOR
AREPO
TENET
OPERA
ROTAS

Whisper them but not as magic, but as a spiritual anchor.

This serves as a way to quiet panic, focus the mind, and remember that what appears chaotic may still be held within a greater design.

The square never changes, no matter which way you read it.

God’s order remains, even when our world feels upside down.

What ancient practice do you turn to when hope feels distant?

Tell me, I want to learn.

TON is now $GRAM !

Crypto has been here before. $AAVE, $S , $POL , $DASH all have undergone rebrands.

Which projects rebranded, why, and how it actually turned out 👇

1️⃣ Matic Network → @0xPolygon

Year: 2021 & 2025

Ticker: $MATIC → $POL

Reason: Outgrow the "single Ethereum sidechain" image and become a multi-chain ecosystem.

How it turned out: The name became a top-tier brand. Token-wise mixed, POL down sharply since migration, but lifetime returns still ~5,000%.

2️⃣ Fantom → @SonicLabs

Year: 2024–25

Ticker: $FTM → $S

Reason: A clean break after the bear market drained users, paired with a brand-new high-speed chain.
How it turned out: One of the strongest narrative revivals - 1:1 swap, fresh momentum, devs returning. The reset worked.

3️⃣ MakerDAO → @SkyEcosystem

Year: 2024

Ticker: $MKR → $SKY

Reason: The "Endgame" restructuring to simplify and scale the protocol.
How it turned out: Divisive. Community pushback, token roughly flat since. Still early days since the markets have not really picked up since.

4️⃣ ETHLend → @aave

Year: 2020

Ticker: $LEND → $AAVE

Reason: Pivot from peer-to-peer lending to the liquidity-pool model that defines DeFi today.
How it turned out: The gold standard. A rebrand backed by a real product shift, Aave became a blue chip.

5️⃣ BitDAO → @Mantle_Official

Year: 2023

Ticker: $BIT → $MNT

Reason: Shift from a treasury-focused DAO into a full Ethereum Layer-2 ecosystem.
How it turned out: Repositioned around the L2 narrative with one of crypto's largest treasuries behind it, it has been a successful rebranding.

6️⃣ Darkcoin → @Dashpay

Year: 2015

Ticker: stayed $DASH after the rename

Reason: Drop the "dark" association to shed the privacy-coin/illicit-use stigma and chase mainstream payments adoption.
How it turned out: One of the earliest rebrands in crypto, the cleaner "digital cash" positioning gave it real momentum and a long run as a top-20 coin.

20 hard questions that will transform your life

[lovefirst @goodlucklukas4]

@YouVersion Amen

[Mr. Czar @Mrczar_]

There are 200 Million Nigerians (at least)

More than 50 Million are actively online.

To build a mildly successful business in Nigeria what you need is just 1,000 people (out of an entire 50 Million) to buy from your business - in an ENTIRE year.

Think of it, if one thousand people spend 50,000 naira in your business in a year that is a 50 Million naira revenue.

If you capture just 30% of that amount as profit, you’d have a N15M profit.

Spread across 12 months that is a solid 1,250,000 a month income

People make this in a day, but let us not get ahead of ourselves.

Why am I sharing this with you? Simply to show you THE POSSIBILITY of what is possible.

You need to look at these things in these frames so you can get yourself out of despair.

The question is not ‘’where una dey see this money?’’ the right frame is: ‘’What can i sell to 1,000 Nigerians, repeatedly - such that each of these ONE THOUSAND persons can spend at least N50,000 in my business in one year’’

The right questions will set you free.

Waiting Well

Waiting can be hard. 

Most of us would prefer quick, efficient, and—when possible—instant results and answers. 

But waiting is a part of life. 

We must wait for seeds to grow into food, for one season to fade into the next, for babies to mature into adults, and for trees to stand tall enough to finally offer shade.

Like it or not, waiting takes patience.

We can wait days, months, years, or even decades for a prayer to be answered, for an overdue apology, for the timing to be right, or for a dream to finally come to pass.

Waiting requires courage.

King David lived nearly 3,000 years ago, but he knew what it meant to wait for God’s timing, to wait to be king, to wait to be rescued from his enemies. He wrote:

“Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord.”
Psalms 27:14 NLT

If David thought waiting on God was important enough to write it twice in one verse, we should probably pay attention. But waiting patiently for the Lord isn’t an excuse to do nothing. 

We can proactively wait on God by staying in communication with Him, by looking for His fingerprints in ordinary moments, by reading about His story and His plans in His Word, by worshiping Him no matter what’s happening across the globe, by serving the people both inside and outside of our circles, and by thanking Him for the gifts He’s already given us.

Just because a specific door isn’t opening, or a particular opportunity isn’t available at this moment doesn’t mean that God isn’t moving.

Even when we are waiting—God is working. 

Noah spent decades building an ark as he waited for God to do what He’d said. Ruth journeyed with her mother-in-law and worked in the grain fields while trusting in God’s provision after her husband’s death. Joseph stayed faithful in prison for several years before his promotion to second-in-command of Egypt. John trusted God’s ultimate will for his life, and wrote several books of the New Testament while sentenced to exile on the island of Patmos. 

So, no matter what you’re facing today, you can ask God for patience and trust that He is in control of your future. No matter what uncertainty lies before you, when you rely on the Lord, you can be someone who waits well.
