It’s pretty moving. I got into crypto and U.S. stocks after watching virtual idols back then, though I can’t remember what led me to them. Then, for a while, I went back to everyday life and stopped watching virtual idols or trading U.S. stocks and crypto. Now I’m back in crypto, and I’ve remembered the virtual idols I used to watch. Their songs really do have a way of making you feel at ease. Time passes, mountains and rivers change, but at least I still have you.

🛢️ ExxonMobil, Citgo, and P2P: What the market is really watching.
Economist José Toro Hardy has once again stressed an uncomfortable idea: when crude gets jittery, attention turns to the Caribbean—a country with no history of wars, enormous proven reserves, and a production ceiling that no one has reached in a decade. The interest is there, the discussions are there, but the signed contracts aren’t enough to sustain the production surge everyone is expecting.
His conclusion: without financial firepower, there’s no drilling. And the name he keeps bringing up is ExxonMobil—not out of affection

What exactly is the probability of a rate hike in October? I looked at three data sources and found a huge discrepancy
Before Warsh's speech, I spent an hour comparing how different data sources priced the probability of a rate hike in October, and found the differences were unbelievably large.
CME FedWatch shows the probability of a 25-basis-point rate hike in October jumped from around 21% before the CPI release to 43.7%, while the probability of rates remaining unchanged fell from 78.3% to 56.3%. Another source shows that the market sees the probability of a rate hike this month as close to

Bitcoin has spent the past week caught between two forces: a stubborn inflation picture and a Federal Reserve that is not yet ready to say it is finished. The latest data has pushed BTC back toward the lower part of its recent range, and the reaction to the inflation reports and Kevin Warsh's comments at the IMF meeting in Bangkok tells us a lot about where the market's mind is right now. My view is that this is not a market that has broken down, but it is a market that is asking for confirmation before it commits to the next big move. Let me explain why I think

With the same 1000U, outcomes can be worlds apart. Today, I’m taking on just one asset: $ZEREBRO . It’s currently at 0.0245, down a straight 27.28% in 24 hours, with a high of 0.0354 and a low of 0.0239, and 52M in trading volume—this isn’t a pullback, it’s a long-side liquidation cascade. I’m taking on analysts on Gate Square, and I pick moments like this bloodbath to tell the truth.
First, the price structure face-off. The 24-hour range ran from 0.0354 to 0.0239, a decline of nearly 33%. The current price of 0.0245 is practically on the floor, just 0.0006 above the low. The bullish structure

Bitcoin saw a sharp wick-like drop this morning, hitting a low near 80700 before quickly rebounding and rallying strongly. It surged above 82000 at its peak, gaining nearly 1300 points in a one-way move, and is now trading around 81800 after a pullback.
Although Bitcoin quickly rebounded after the morning wick down to 80700 and rallied above 82000, this was essentially more of an emotional bounce after a sharp drop than a confirmation that the trend had strengthened. After a one-way rally of nearly 1300 points, the price failed to hold above 82000 and soon pulled back to around 81800, indicati

Quantitative Live Trading Weekly Log Week 11 |2026-10-17| Equity this week: 2,287.32
This was absolutely the most brutal week since I started live quant trading—I got completely battered. I trade US semiconductor RWA quant strategies, and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index fell for five consecutive trading days this week. SOXL plunged 40% in just one week, while small-cap stocks like CBRS and AAOI also fell by more than 30%. MUU needs no further mention. So this week, I was holding losing positions across the board. This is when risk management is put to the test. Although it was brutal, I m

A major weekend headline: Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) has been placed on MSCI’s watchlist, with a decision expected around November 11 on whether to remove it from the relevant indexes. An adjustment could take effect by the end of November.
The public figures are clear: the company holds around 848k BTC, with an average cost of about 75.4k; Saylor has also been saying these past couple of days that “Bitcoin is digital capital.” If it is removed from the indexes, passive funds may be forced to sell its shares. The market is betting on how severe the cut will be, not on this weekend’s min
