This is why I don't day trade anymore.

Swing trading = long term success

Normal people sell their freedom to earn money.

Traders risk their money to buy freedom.

Hyperliquid still the strongest crypto major while the rest of the market is consolidating.

50% win rate at 3:1 RR.

This means:

10 trades
5 wins (+15R)
5 losses (-5R)

Net: +10R

Simple math.

Life changing results.

Is XLM gonna save the entire crypto market? 🤣

You think losing means you failed.

Wrong.

Losing is the game.

Winners accept it.

Losers fight it.

The market doesn't care about your ego.

Take the loss and move on.

That's the only difference between traders who make it and those who don't.

If Bitcoin was gonna go bullish again it would be here.

FX majors currently low probability due to DXY consolidating between 2 Daily FVGs.

NFP on Friday will resolve it.

This is ICT's real trading terminal setup.

Amazing or sub optimal?

Losing traders need to know they'll win before they enter.

Winning traders know they might lose and enter anyway.

It's highly unlikely now for Bitcoin to recover till we dump past 60k.

We've dumped past equilibrium of the price consolidation.

If we were gonna resume the uptrend we would have done it higher than here when I said at 73k.

Basically, we tried to recover but it didn't happen. That gives a high likelihood now - given the price action - for us to take out Sellside Liquidity at 60k.

We have potential for a short term bounce here at 66k.

I believe it will be short lived though to build up more liquidity to the downside.

Worst case scenario there is a crypto bear market till Q4 2026.

Liquidity explained:

BTC down and past $60k almost guaranteed.

We are pretty much already there.

Trading will destroy you.

But a job destroys you slower while you smile and say thank you.

At least with trading the pain has purpose.

With a job you just die comfortably.

How to reduce stress while trading:

✅ Aim for 1-2% gain per week
✅ 6% per month
✅ 0-2 trades per day
✅ Max 1 loss per day
✅ Once you hit your goal, stop trading

Embrace discipline, watch your profits soar.

You used to open charts and feel lost.

Every candle looked the same.

Every move was a guess.

Now you read price action like a language.

Most traders quit before they got here.

You are not most traders.

The harsh truth about trading:

If you can be profitable on a 50% win rate with a 2:1 risk reward ratio.

Why do you need to be correct 100% of the time?

Seeing alot of panicking about the market on social media today.

EURUSD moved lower taking out it's major Sellside Liquidity as mentioned in this post.

Could be a good place to look for a reversal but all depends on if DXY wants to keep rallying from here.
