If the coin price went up, did I outperform?
When reviewing my spot trades, I look at how much I earned and also ask: How did my chosen benchmark perform over the same period?
For example, suppose a coin I’m watching rises 10%, while Bitcoin rises 20% over the same period. In dollar terms, it’s up; relative to Bitcoin, though, it actually underperformed. Its price ratio fell by about 8.3%.
This doesn’t mean every trade has to outperform Bitcoin. It’s a reminder to decide what I’m comparing before reviewing my trades. I shouldn’t measure against the dollar when I’m making money, then switch to

A loss of over 80% across the board: These “near-zero” altcoins are draining retail investors’ pockets dry 🩸
Folks, today’s market sell-off is already depressing enough, but I have to pour cold water on things again—don’t touch those altcoins at the bottom! Take a look at this screenshot of the so-called “promising coin screener.” I don’t think it should be called a screener at all; “retail investor harvesting list” would be more accurate.
💡 Why is buying the dip just giving your money away? Plenty of newcomers see a coin down 90% and start thinking, “It’s fallen this much already—how much l

Rewards have stopped—how many people stayed?
When an on-chain app suddenly gets busy, I check whether it happens to be giving out rewards.
It’s no surprise that funds and participants are willing to come in when rewards are available. What I want to keep watching is how many addresses are still using it after the campaign ends, whether the funds remain, and whether those funds are actually being put to use.
For example, if deposits into a lending app increase, I also look at whether borrowing demand has kept pace. If people are just parking money there to claim incentives, that means something

Data: AI’s “fuel”
Data is the foundational resource for artificial intelligence systems, providing material for model training. The quality and quantity of data directly affect a model’s performance and accuracy. With large amounts of high-quality data, algorithms can learn complex patterns, improve their predictive capabilities, and generalize across different scenarios

HYPE and ZEC Are Attracting Institutional Capital. The ETF Numbers Tell an Interesting Story.
While Bitcoin and Ethereum are dealing with market uncertainty, two different crypto assets are showing encouraging institutional demand. According to SoSoValue, HYPE and ZEC spot ETFs recorded combined net inflows of $18.51 million on October 29 (US Eastern Time).
What makes this development interesting is that both assets attracted capital through individual ETF products, rather than relying on broad market recovery.

Providing capital to a contract pool—only earning fees?
When researching on-chain derivatives platforms, I pay close attention to what providers of capital are actually taking on.
Some pools earn revenue from trading fees, but their value may also be affected by the prices of the assets they hold and traders’ profits and losses.
With some of GMX’s liquidity pool mechanisms, the pool acts as the counterparty to traders. When traders profit, that affects the pool’s value. So an increase in cumulative trading fees doesn’t necessarily mean that people holding pool shares have earned the same amoun

Intel Q3 Earnings: Strong Beat Meets Harsh Reality Check as Stock Plunges Nearly 23%
Intel Corporation delivered third-quarter results that surpassed market expectations on key profitability metrics, yet its shares suffered one of the sharpest single-session declines in recent years. The stock dropped approximately 17% to more than 23% in after-hours trading following the release, with some reports citing a plunge near the 23% mark from the prior close around $92.07. This reaction underscores a classic Wall Street dynamic: investors look past the r

On October 29 local time, Google parent Alphabet’s shares plunged about 13% in a single day, wiping out about $500 billion in market value and marking their worst single-day performance since the company went public in 2004.
Third-quarter free cash flow was negative $9.07 billion, versus analysts’ prior forecast of about negative $2.7 billion; full-year capital expenditure guidance remained at $195 billion–$205 billion. Search advertising revenue was about $63.35 billion, up 12% year over year, but below expectations. Company executives said its own “AI Mode” search feature led to fewer ads, m

The market has fallen this badly,
and everyone’s still busy coming to Hong Kong for Halloween...
Guess they either have no money to lose yet, or haven’t lost enough...

Good morning everyone.

No trades today—is it still worth reviewing?
I want to include the times I didn’t make a move in my trading journal. Otherwise, when I look back, I’ll only see executed trades, while many moments that genuinely influenced my decisions will be missing.
For example, an interesting piece of on-chain news might appear, but the evidence hasn’t been verified yet; the price might reach a zone I’m watching, but my original entry conditions aren’t met; or the market might be very active, but I no longer have the energy to keep tracking it.
All of these are worth writing down. The note doesn’t need to b

Some new friends asked me if the strategy has been making money lately?
Just because I don't post the strategy doesn't mean it hasn't been making money
Yesterday, it rose all the way from around 2300 to 2378
I went long at 2305 and short at 2376, profiting from both moves
Old friends know the strategy has been making profits every day since Sunday
