If you’re overtrading you can use a simple heuristic:

“If I were allowed to only take 1 trade on this day/this week - would I pick this setup?”

[Cred @CryptoCred]

Most people who made and kept a lot of money in crypto simply survived and stuck around long enough to hit a few big wins.

A specific coin, trend, meta, rotation, liquidation cascade, new launch, arb, news event, and so on.

It doesn't take much.

In order to survive and be there for those opportunities, your priorities are to:

1. Reduce existential risk (cross margin gambling without a stop, all-in a single coin or position, all funds on a single exchange, all funds on a single hot wallet, and so on).

2. Reduce the size of your biggest losing trades. Your trade history should be composed of small losses, break evens, small wins, and big wins - never big losses.

2.1. This is more nuanced but generally means not adding to losing trades without a plan, not exceeding your maximum position size or risk per trade, not overleveraging, not overtrading (many small losses quickly become a big loss), not trading when tilted, having clear exit criteria (for both winners and losers), and other basics.

There's no mystery here - 99% of the time you know when you're trading like an arsehole.

Most people have never truly dedicated themselves to a skill long term.

Anything they've accomplished has been thanks to luck, so anything they see other people accomplish they assume is the same.

“What do you do?”

“I’m a professional cryptocurrency trader.”

“What do you think of the market?”

“A cartoon duck is bearish memes and flipped his profile pic upside down, which he famously did in 2018 when he crushed the bear market. But Ansem, future Mayor of New York City, is fervently disagreeing. We’re running out of GCR permutations based on ethnicity so now we’ve called the cartoon Duck ‘Gay GCR’, named after the bird dude who has one of the best public track records and long-term predictions. Most people seem to think the cartoon duck is washed and are dunking on his takes based on meme outperformance relative to other sectors, but the confidence of the reply guys is worrying some traders as the very idea of the meme cycle topping is a prima facie non-starter for them. The WIF 1-second chart is a war zone. Also, Raoul Pal just came up with his fifteenth version of some macro liquidity thing called the banana zone and Huss is using the Saudi sovereign wealth fund to long ETH. So the market is trying to price upside down cartoon duck and militant reply guys versus memecoin strength, Ansem, and the banana zone.”

I’m not saying quit games.

I’m saying quit everything that raises your dopamine through the absolute roof. Including games.

You will quickly become very very bored and suddenly something like learning guitar or code will become euphoric VS a chore.

By all means remain disinterested in things that will make your life awesome and deeply engaged in things that drain/give you nothing.

If you want to keep your brain broken do it. Idgaf. Not my life your fucking up 🫡

Totes up to you.

Most men have logged 1000+ hours on a video game. Most have about 3000-10,000.

It takes about 1000 hours to
-get a purple belt in jiu jitsu
-get really good at guitar
-make 100k-200k+ a year in business.
-code at a very decent level

In short : you/most men clearly have the focus and ability to commit thousands of hours to something.

The issue is the dopamine threshold isn’t high enough to keep their attention like a game would.

If you lower that threshold you will unlock the world. You’d be able to woop ass, make money, talk to girls, look/feel great and learn any money making/creative skill you need.

Any man that can consistently commit thousands of hours to new growth/skills is impossible to stop.

The issue is again your “bar” to be entertained is (aka dopamine threshold) is impossibly high.

Only the highest level of human engineered dopamine drugs (games) can keep it.

Imagine if you could work at something that mattered like you could at a video game.

Fix that and fix your life.

Either you are getting better or you are getting worse, you are not staying the same!

If you got to the top of the mountain you were climbing, make sure you immediately start looking for yet another mountain to climb!

Stay hard!

What people think makes you a successful bull market trader:

- $SOL meme coins
- 100x Leverage
- Paid Signals
- Complex Indicators

Reality:

- Mastery of one narrative
- Consistent trading strategy
- Risk Management
- S tier Anime

Simpler than most think but not easy.

[Cred @CryptoCred]

Always use leverage.

Use it everywhere - no exceptions.

Funding is high, but I’m getting 5:1 in the shower.

Study capital efficiency.

Just casually waiting for the all time high. Not freaking out every time it pulls back.

Not desperate at all. Totally not emotional.

Overexposed and totally comfortable here. Not stressed. Totally okay if we reverse fr fr. In it for the tech.
