Fastest "make sure" blueprint to become poor: (financially and spiritually)

- Make sure to be incredibly scared of taking risks making sure to always remain inside your comfort zone.

- Make sure that your main priority is to get a lifetime subscription to Netflix, spending hours and hours to watch "the next series".

- Make sure to blame politicians, riches and external forces for your life's problems, not even thinking of finding a personal way to solve them.

- Make sure to avoid taking responsibility for your choices, because it’s much easier to say, “That’s just the way life is.”

- Make sure to surround yourself with negative, unmotivated people who drag you down rather than push you forward

-Make sure to always compare yourself to others and feel bitter about their success, rather than learning from them.

- Make sure to procrastinate on every opportunity, convincing yourself that “tomorrow” is the best time to start (spoiler: tomorrow never comes).

- Make sure to avoid reading books, learning new skills, or improving yourself in any way..after all, you already know everything you need to know.

- Make sure to spend every dollar you earn, or even better, spend money you don’t have by maxing out credit cards on things that bring zero long-term value but boost your ego in front of others eyes.

- Make sure to wake up late every day with no plan or purpose, scrolling endlessly through social media to see what other people are doing with their lives.

- Make sure to jump from one get-rich-quick scheme to another, always looking for shortcuts instead of putting in real effort.

- Make sure to seek approval from everyone, living your life based on what others think instead of what truly matters to you.

- Make sure to reject self-reflection..after all, if you never analyze your actions, you never have to admit you might be the problem.

- Make sure to view every challenge as unfair instead of an opportunity to grow, hardships are just excuses to give up.

[ZERO IKA 🗡️ @IamZeroIka]

This is what I would do if I had to rebuild myself after being used as exit liquidity during the whole 2023/24: (in order to not follow this path in 2025 also) -> 5 points

🎯1. I would start to create a list of creators/informational resource

I would stop consuming garbage content and be more mindful of who I follow.

I would block anyone flexing rented Lambos, selling “100% win rate” strategies, or making unrealistic promises of overnight riches because these are clear signs of a scam.

Real traders don’t waste their time selling dreams—they focus on trading and improving their skills.

Instead, I would seek out legitimate sources of knowledge, such as well-regarded books, experienced professionals and reputable people with a track record of credibility.

I would prioritize learning from those who have verifiable long-term success rather than influencers who thrive on hype and deception.

If someone can’t provide consistent, verified trading results spanning years, then they’re not offering real education, they’re just selling a lifestyle.

I would commit to filtering out misleading content and focusing on real, proven strategies that stand the test of time.

Shilling altcoins? Delete.
Promising sure targets? Delete.
Talking in absolutism terms? Delete.
Negative/cocky attitude? Delete.
Nourishing FOMO? Delete.

You are what you eat, physically but also mentally.

🎯2. I would build a budget

I would not even consider trading if I had no capital.

"Wow bro, it's logical.."

No it isn't as the desire to become rich overcomes the need of making logical plays and that's why people borrow money for investing/trading.

I would start by breaking down my income and expenses, identifying essentials like rent, utilities, and debt payments.

Then, I would cut out wasteful spending, unused subscriptions, excessive dining out, and impulse purchases.

I would set up automated savings and build at least six months of emergency funds before risking money in the markets.

But I wouldn’t stop at just saving, I would think bigger and focus on increasing my earning potential.

Instead of only saving money to survive, I would focus on expanding my income streams and creating financial freedom.

Sky is the limit and I would invest in skills, start a side hustle, explore freelancing, or build a scalable business.

My goal wouldn’t just be to live frugally (like many gurus say) but to create multiple income streams so that trading becomes an opportunity, not a desperate attempt to make money.

I would never trade with money I couldn’t afford to lose.

Instead, I would build financial stability first, create income beyond my paycheck, and only trade with excess capital.

Trading should be additional, not main.

🎯3. I would put in giga hours learning TA

I would dedicate hours to learning and mastering technical analysis before diving into the markets.

Fundamentals have only eroded retails' portfolios, nothing else.

Patience would be the key word: I would approach this with the mindset of developing a long-term skill set, not rushing for making millions in 1 year.

Expecting immediate results would just fuc* me from behind without vaseline.

A critical part of my learning would be backtesting strategies.

I would not just study theory but actively test strategies on historical data to see how they perform in different market conditions.

Backtesting allows me to gain a realistic understanding of how a strategy works and whether it’s reliable enough for the long term.

This practice would help me build confidence and refine my approach, making me prepared for various market scenarios.

In my learning journey, I would make sure to build a solid list of key concepts: SMC, S&D, Fibs, Liquidity, Manipulation.

Not turbodildogreen patterns that "zoom out" my view while my capital is being raped.

🎯4. I would master risk management

In trading, risk is the only thing I can control, and it’s the one thing that will determine my survival in the markets.

If I can’t manage risk, I simply won’t survive.

The market is unpredictable, and no matter how skilled I become, there will always be losses.

What separates successful traders from those who fail is how well they manage risk, not how much they win, but how well they handle their losses.

I would never risk more than 1-3% of my account per trade.

I would always have a stop loss, no exceptions even for spot positions.
I would carefully calculate my position size.

I would always focus on preserving capital above all else.

I would prepare a plan "in case of scenario A" and "in case of scenario B", no bias.

I would journal every trade.

I would trail every position when in profit.

I would treat my trading like Kintsugi, every loss is a crack in the surface, but with careful management, those cracks can be mended making them gold.

🎯5. I would put my focus in improving my emotional condition

The market preys on greed and fear, and my worst enemy isn’t the market itself, it’s me.

Emotions can cloud my judgment and lead to irrational decisions that will only hurt my performance.

I would accept that losses are a part of trading.

I would not fear them, and I would not try to avoid them at all costs.

The goal isn’t to never lose, but to minimize losses and ensure they don’t affect my capital or my mindset.

Every trader faces losses, and the key is to handle them with composure, not to let them dictate my next move.

I would never revenge trade.

If I lost a trade, I wouldn’t jump back into the market immediately out of frustration or the desire to "make up" for that loss.

I would walk away, take a deep breath, and analyze why I lost.

What went wrong? Was it my strategy, poor risk management, or emotional decision-making? I would learn from it, but I would not let a single loss drive my next decision.

I would also control my fomo.

If a trade opportunity passes me by, I wouldn’t chase it.

The market is full of opportunities, and if I start chasing trades because I feel like I’m missing out, I am playing someone else’s game, not my own.

By chasing, I risk entering trades that don’t fit my strategy, which leads to bad decisions and unnecessary losses.

I would remember that the market will always be there and that I don’t need to take every trade.

I would stick to my plan and only enter trades that meet my criteria.

Most importantly, I would stick to my plan.

If I break my own rules, I’m not trading: I’m gambling.

A solid trading plan is built on tested strategies, risk management, and clear goals.

If I deviate from my plan, I lose the structure that helps me succeed.

Every time I stick to my plan, I am making a conscious decision to trade with purpose.

That's it, this is what I would do.

@phoenix_cr47 What would you do if you were currently holding some coins and were in a losing position, and the daily close of USDT.D was above the 4.61% level? Would you cut your losses partially or even entirely, or would you just wait and do nothing?

[ZERO IKA 🗡️ @IamZeroIka]

Notion 2.0 is finally live.

The new layout has been successfully integrated: more organized and visually appealing, with structured knowledge tiers progressing from foundational principles to advanced concepts.

This is especially true for SMC, which, as you know, is my primary focus and approach.

The work done so far has been incredible, compiling a vast amount of knowledge gathered over the past eight years, through mistakes, lessons, and continuous refinement.

The current goal is to revamp all existing lessons, integrating them with advanced concepts to elevate their quality and deliver an A+ learning experience.

Naturally, this channel/database isn’t for those looking for a "magic formula" to turn $100 into $1M overnight.

Instead, it’s for those ready to shift their perspective, embark on a new journey, and stop being used as exit liquidity by classic influencers.

I've dedicated countless hours to writing and distilling this knowledge, and the overwhelmingly positive feedback confirms that this effort is making an impact.

Extra Note:

The Tools section, featuring an integrated trading journal, portfolio tracker, and risk management calculator isn’t live yet.

It will be fully operational by mid-March, adding the "cherry" on top of the cake.

While others launch memecoins, we launch knowledge.

Choose your side.

@TraderDune Im waiting on 0.122 to shorting and put my SL on 0.1395 if HTF closing above that price.

[ZERO IKA 🗡️ @IamZeroIka]

Every single day, the market is flooded with people, most of them completely lost, asking the same lazy, desperate questions.

“Are we going up now?”

“How low will we go?”

“Is this the bottom?”

They act like technical analysis is some magic formula that will solve all of their problems, but that’s not how it works, and that’s exactly why they keep losing money.

The brutal truth is that most folks out there aren’t actually trading, they’re gambling.

They’re not interested in probabilities, risk management, or strategy.

They just want certainty, they want someone to tell them exactly what will happen next so they don’t have to think, plan, or take responsibility.

And because they’re so fixated on finding a guaranteed outcome, they never bother to develop the skills they actually need to win in the long run.

They enter a trade based on a hunch, a signal from some random influencer, or a single indicator flashing green, and when the market inevitably does something unexpected, they freeze, hesitating or refusing to cut their losses because “it has to come back up”, until they get liquidated or they lose the “plot of the film”.

Then, instead of realizing that they had no plan to begin with, they blame manipulation, whales, the news, or the same influencer they blindly followed.

This is why 90% of people fail.

It’s lack of a strategy, of risk management and they don’t know when to exit.

They are entirely dependent on prediction instead of preparation, and that’s the fastest way to blow up your account.

Technical analysis was never meant to predict the future. (even if it’s possible sometimes).

It was designed to help you plan for multiple possibilities and react.

A real trader doesn’t waste time asking, “Are we going up?”

Instead, they map out key levels, define conditions for entering and exiting, and set clear invalidation points.

They don’t need to guess the future because they have already prepared for multiple outcomes.

If the market does A, they do B, If it does C, they do D.

There’s no hesitation, no confusion, just execution.

The ones who constantly ask, “What happens next?” will never make it.

They will always rely on others, always second-guess themselves, always enter too late and exit too early.

They will always be at the mercy of the market instead of in control of their own actions.

The traders who actually succeed?

They don’t ask what the market will do.

They prepare for what it could do, and they adapt accordingly.

So if you’re still chasing predictions, still waiting for someone to give you an answer, still hoping for certainty in an uncertain game, you need to wake up.

[ZERO IKA 🗡️ @IamZeroIka]

If you lost money this bull run or didn’t hit your targets, good.

Maybe that’s exactly what you needed.

Because let’s be real, you got comfortable.

You thought you had it all figured out.

You thought the market was easy, that you were just one trade away from changing your life and then reality slapped you in the face, hard.

I lost a lot of money in 2017 and thought I was a failure.

I convinced myself I was just unlucky, that the market was unfair, that I “deserved” to make it back, but the truth?

I was just another idiot who mistook hype for a strategy.

The market didn’t betray me, I betrayed myself.

Just like you did.

You can sit there and blame manipulation, influencers, “bad timing,” or whatever excuse makes you feel better.

You can tell yourself, “Next time will be different,” while doing absolutely nothing to ensure it actually will be.

Or you can face the truth: you lost because you played the game wrong.

Look at the choices you made.

Every single one led you to this moment.

You chased pumps without understanding what you were buying.

You listened to random Twitter accounts instead of thinking for yourself.

You ignored risk management because you thought, “This time is different.”

You held bags deep into a downtrend, telling yourself it would bounce.

You had no exit strategy, no discipline, just pure greed disguised as conviction and now you’re paying the price.

Good.

Feel that pain.

Let it sink in.

Let it burn into your mind so deeply that the next time greed tries to control you, you remember exactly what it cost you last time.

Because if you don’t fix yourself now, you will repeat the exact same cycle again.

And then what?

Will you still be making excuses in 2029?

Will you still be saying, “If only I had sold,” or “If only I had bought earlier”?

At some point, the problem isn’t the market, it’s you.

So what do you do now?

You stop lying to yourself.

You take a piece of paper and you write down every single mistake you made.

Not in your head, on paper.

Physically write it.

The trades you shouldn’t have taken.

The profits you didn’t secure.

The leverage you abused.

The exits you ignored.

The times you let emotions dictate your decisions instead of logic.

Write it all down, and then look at it.

That list? That’s why you lost.

Not whales.

Not influencers.

Not “bad luck.” You.

Now you have a choice.

You can ignore this and hope things magically improve next time or you can break the cycle.

You can choose to never make these mistakes again.

That means risk management isn’t optional, it’s your foundation.

It means greed no longer controls you, you take profits when you should, not when you “feel” like it.

It means emotions have no place in your trades, you have a strategy and you stick to it.

The market owes you nothing.

It doesn’t care how much you “need” to win.

It rewards discipline and punishes arrogance.

This cycle, some people walked away rich, and others walked away broke.

The difference? One had a plan, the other had hope.

Next cycle, you get to decide which one you’ll be.

Fix your game, or get played again.

[YONG @william74535781]

@phoenix_cr47 why not waiting for weekly closure?

[ZERO IKA 🗡️ @IamZeroIka]

- Market Update, Twilight Zone -

I'm calling this new market update "Twilight zone" because we're at a point where the fate of the market hangs by a thread.

Before reading this update however, make sure to check my previous one because it gives you more "completeness" and also acts as proof of my work (for the good and the bad, of course):
https://t.co/AR5lT8APai

Let's analyze:

- TOTAL 2 -

In the last update I added this 🔑 note:

"Ultimately, we're still ranging and that's true, but it's important to respect certain zones as breaking to the upside would also mean testing another time the BB on TOTAL 2, and given the fact that it has already been mitigated multiple times, this would contribute to weakening the zone."

As you can see, the bi-weekly BB that was holding as support has been violated with the last bearish impulse breaking the MS with an HTF closure below 1.31T and wicking into the 1T support which was not only a psychological level, but also a liquidity one present on the weekly TF.

There was a level I was monitoring which is the 1.19T that has been ignored at first time we didn't see any closure below and we're currently using it as support where we can potentially rise more, but pay attention to 3 levels:
- 10H at 1.3T
- Potential monthly supply at 1.39T
- Clean 3D supply at 1.42T

All of these levels constitute a partial de-risk and optimal zones to look for shorts on broken MS on altcoins, so bearish retests until proven otherwise.

With "proven otherwise" I intend retaking at least the PSH at 1.47T that would potentially confirm a MS shift, so do not FOMO into supply areas, please.

- USDT D -

This continues to be one of the most important charts (if not the most important) of the whole space.

If you paid attention to the last update, I was pointing out 2 clear levels: 3.97% + 3.93% where to de-risk and looking for shorts.

Look at the reaction we had from that area, almost perfect (no, it's not Trump's fault for this) and with this move we caught the liquidity highlighted months ago located at 4.87/5% which has provided a nice opportunity on most altcoins.

Have to be honest, I didn't expect it to be reached now, but as explained in this post https://t.co/3hkvlmfijb this is a good thing because for the concept of AMT we now have the fuel for pushing higher on the overall market especially because (at the moment) we're not having any HTF closure above the PSH at 4.54% which is key for determining further downside or upside.

For the downside:
- Observe the D PHOB at 4.10%
- Observe the 4.06% + 4.03% demand zones

If reached, you should be careful looking for at least a partial de-risk.

For the upside:
- Monitor an HTF closure above 4.54% that would imply at least a wick fill (50%) with potential taps into the 5.03% and 5.22%.

If this happens without an HTF closure above 5.51%, you'll likely have another swing long opportunity.

If this happens with an HTF closure above that swing, you'll have the official confirmation of bear market starting.

- BTC D -

Compared to the previous update the BTC D broke the MTF SH above 59.92% but not above the 61.53% one (key level) and this, as stated in the last update, has pushed ETH/BTC down to the 0.27/28 area, something I talked about in this post: https://t.co/rN3DszFY9z

We got a few levels below to pay attention at, not specifically talking about HOBs because I don't rely much on these things for such metric, but the HTF demands located at 58% and 57.45%, very important areas that could provide a bounce and logically, a temporary? correction on altcoins.

More details in the chart, work level by level.

- Final take -

The market as you can see is in full "Twilight Zone" because many macro charts have approached their key levels.

We have:
- ETH/BTC at 0.27/28
- ETH/USDT that took liquidity in the 2K area
- BTC D at HTF SH (61.53%)
- USDT D at HTF SH (4.53%)
- +1: Gold at 2870 (macro 1.618)

All together, these confluences might favor more upside and I would be extremely surprised to see further breakdown from these levels.

The most awaited question is: "Altseason?"

Guys, I think that thinking in "altseason terms" has completely ruined the operatively of many because they expect pumps left and right ignoring mid-levels and therefore sacrificing a lot of money in the meantime.

The goal, as I always say, is to extract and compound and not to "sit on your hands and do nothing" because this forces you to not take action.

You don't need "one shot life-changing money".

This market is evolving and past approaches don't work anymore, you have to be 10x more cautious and pro-active if you want to survive.

Adaptability, like a chameleon who's ready to change colors when he feels under pressure due to an imminent arrival of a predator.

If you lost money during this big swing it's ok.

It's ok to lose, it's ok to make mistakes and yes, it's also ok to feel like a complete stupid, there's no shame in this.

The only shame is not taking responsibility, giving up and complaining.

Regardless, Super Bowl is approaching and we might see, as stated, some good upside.

Look at the levels identified in the charts and you'll be fine, I believe.

[ZERO IKA 🗡️ @IamZeroIka]

I often receive "criticisms" about the length of my posts.

"Why are your posts always so long to read?"

You see, the work I strive to do is slightly different from that of most crypto accounts.

I've never been the type to draw two random lines on a chart or post an image with "to the moon" or "to the doom" just to chase engagement.

Instead, I enjoy explaining the reasoning behind an analysis or a life perspective (since I also discuss these topics) in detail since my goal is to create educational content.

I feel fulfilled when I can explain not just what I think but also why I think that way and even if this approach is often underestimated, I believe it provides real value to those who are willing to spend five minutes of their time reading what I write.

We live in an era where the only approach that seems to be accepted is the short-term one.

Short-term relationships, short-term goals, short-term thinking, and yes, even a short attention span.

If you can’t take five minutes to read something that took at least an hour and a half to write, yet you complain about not achieving results, then the problem isn’t the industry, it’s your lack of dedication.

Regardless, this is what I enjoy doing, and it’s what makes me different from the rest.

Otherwise, you can always follow the usual accounts promising easy 20-50x returns. No hard feelings.
