Markets go through phases and most traders only have one mode
The trend follower who gets absolutely cucked in a range environment
The range guy who keeps getting run over in a strong trend
What these mfs need to realise is that their method isn't broken
All that happened is the environment changed and they didn't see it or adapt
Reading the environment constantly before you charge into big trades is one of the important skills in this game which i don't see many talk about
My good friend @kzuxbt always preaches this, he is EXCELLENT at knowing when to trench and then when to only trade perps
Knowing when the edge is lower in a certain environment is an edge in itself
It's the thing that separates traders who are good in one specific condition
From traders who can make money consistently across different ones
What is your edge in a trend
What is your edge in a range
What is your edge when the market is fully news driven
If you don't have clear answers to all three, I have some news for you buckeroo
You have a weather-dependent edge and should NOT be blindly trading every environment
Either level up and get better or sit out until it's your preferred conditions
Before every single trade you need to answer three questions
Where am I wrong (stoploss)
How much am I risking if that happens (dolla dollar bills y'all)
What does the reward look like relative to that risk (what colour lambo can i buy?)
If I can't answer all three clearly before I enter, I don't enter
Most beginner traders only think about one of these questions and it's 'how much can i make??"
They're focused entirely on whether the trade is going to work
They haven't decided what happens if it doesn't
They haven't sized it properly relative to the stop
They haven't identified the actual level that invalidates their thesis
And then when it moves against them they freeze and panic like a Somali at a Rupert Lowe rally
Because they never decided in advance what they were going to do
Decisions made before the market is testing you are almost always better than decisions made during
This is very interesting
Both $HYPE and $SOL could dip to to the $40+- range, and now they're trading at almost the same price (~$60)
The question is: what would you buy?
Which one has bigger upside? Which hits $300 first, and why?
It's gonna take a while for the markets to price into $HYPE how truly insane this is.
When Jeff said this will be the house of finance we were kinda like okay bro just pump the coin.
Today we are realizing his vision.
You've probably seen @AskVenice on the timeline a lot recently.
It's an AI platform that doesn't store your chats, doesn't censor prompts, and just added 2M+ users in 10 months.
Here's everything you need to know, and why it's working. ๐งต๐
people keep laughing at the idea of HYPE reaching SOLโs market cap
but if Hyperliquid actually becomes the main onchain trading layer for crypto
is $200 for $HYPE really that crazy?
that would only be around a 3.7x from here
feels less impossible the more volume, fees, and attention it absorbs every month
curious where everyone stands on this
