𝐌𝐲 𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐧 $ASTS
🧵
Let’s begin with the costs necessary to start continuous operations.
$ASTS needs 60 Block 2 satellites to provide continuous service coverage, with each satellite launch costing around $20 million. This results in a total launch cost of approximately $1.2 billion for the constellation.
Additionally, capital expenditures and other operational costs must be considered. Capex is expected to increase to about $100 million per quarter. Assuming operational spending slightly above current levels, total cash burn for 2025 is estimated at around $150 million per quarter, plus launch costs.
Assuming capex spending declines in 2026 but is offset by an expected increase in operational expenses as coverage expands, total cash burn over the next two years is projected to be around $2.4 billion.
The best investing book costs $2,500 and I read it so you don't have to.
It's "Margin of Safety: Risk-Averse Value Investing Strategies for the Thoughtful Investor" by Seth Klarman, a billionaire hedge-fund manager.
🧵10 lessons from a $2,500 book to make you a better investor:
How do you want to get better at trading but you’re living your life like it’s a damn game.
Did you hit the snooze button this morning? That’s an L
You didn’t exercise today? That’s an L
Didn’t do what you said you were going to do because you were tired and wanted a break? That’s an L
You can’t be stacking L’s everyday and expect your life to get better.
It’s just like compounding gains in the market. You have to compound your good habits everyday and prove to yourself that you deserve the life you dream of.
And if you think these things have nothing to do with trading, you’re wrong and you’re lying to yourself and just hoping you get lucky and hit it big while you’re not doing anything to deserve that.
Instead of hoping for luck I would put in so much work, develop such good habits on a day to day basis that it’s totally unreasonable that you don’t find success.
My American Dream is Freedom
Time freedom:
Do what you want to do when you want to do it
Location freedom:
If you want to travel somewhere, go
Don’t like where you live? Move
Financial freedom:
Spend freely, earn consistently with no limit
People will make $350 in 8 hours working for someone else at their 9-5 but then make 1k in an hour or two on their computer and it’s not enough. Then they over trade all day and give it all back or end up red because they got emotional and oversized just to try and get back to the profits they had to begin with.
This is a tale as old as time and I see it constantly. Stop comparing yourself to people online and put shit into perspective.
Lock in your profits and compound your account and start to watch what happens.

Are you chasing breakouts, stopping out and then seeing price move without you?
Stop CHASING and start READING price action! Breakouts are dangerous, always wait for a retest. I hope this helps!
Impatience and fear of missing out is not a trade setup. These are irrational feelings that put the trader in very bad situations. When price breaks out, you should feel NOTHING. This is no more than an alert for you to watch entries on pullbacks for continuation. Wait until the ball is in your court! Then, execute with no fear as long as risk is defined.
Trade safe my friends!

I only ever need 2 confluences to enter a trade, all basing risk off of a perspective. I look for midcandle retracements, paired with PA/Candle confirmation like a tweezer top.
This is the hardest part for most traders: Identifying risk. Everyone wants the PERFECT trade setup, but by the time it reveals itself you are too late and gun shy.
Following the Tweezer Top use the following 3m or 5m candle high to base RISK for ENTRY! Scale at pivot breaks to lock in gains and secure a profitable trade.
Manage your risk by trailing your SL #CandleByCandle and close (or leave runners) after a candle closes above your risk!
