A year has passed, and I’m still a “newcomer,” but I’m not in a rush
When I registered on Gate last year, I thought I could achieve financial freedom within a year. Now a year has passed. I haven’t achieved financial freedom, but I’m no longer in a hurry.
This year, I learned a lot: how to read candlestick charts, set stop-losses, stop following other people’s trade calls, and control my position sizes. Although I still lose money, I’m losing less than before. Although I still make the same mistakes, I now know where the problem lies after making them.

Bitcoin is about to reach around 70,000, and is expected to enter a period of consolidation then.
When will it arrive?—Probably within 3–5 days
First consolidation range [early September]
69,000–72,000–75,000, consolidating before continuing downward
Trading plan:
At that time, wait for the bottom after stop-losses to go long for arbitrage
Second consolidation range [mid-September]
Consolidation duration:
62,000–69,000–72,000
This is my preliminary assessment at present.
Third accelerated decline range [late September–early October black swan]
62,000–59,000–49,000

Everyone’s watching gold, but XAUT is silently building a 4h trap—are you long the wrong metal?

$XAUT /USDT - SHORT

Trade Plan:
Entry: 4431.9 – 4443.3
SL: 4492.0
TP1: 4396.8
TP2: 4369.6
TP3: 4328.9

Why this setup?
Why now? The 1D trend is range, not breakout—so the 55% SHORT bias is about fading the pop, not chasing. Price sits at 4437.6 with RSI 15m at 48.6 (neutral, no fuel). ATR 1h is 22.6—tight, so moves are compressed. If 4466 (invalid) holds as resistance, the path of least resistance is down to TP1 4396.8 → TP2 4369.6. The alt scenario flips only if we lose the range floor—but wit

#ETH Last night’s one-way rise caused losses and triggered stop-losses on two trades. Today’s nonfarm payrolls were bearish as expected, and we secured double short positions. The news ultimately returned to technicals. Don’t be afraid of stop-losses—as long as the market is still here, we’ll make it back double. The short position was taken perfectly! The longs around 2430 mentioned in the livestream broke above around 2460. The first take-profit level has now been reached, so protect your profits. Wishing everyone a happy weekend and lots of U earnings. See you in the livestream next Monday

Everyone’s watching SLX pump—but the 4H chart just whispered a secret that most will ignore.

$SLX /USDT - SHORT

Trade Plan:
Entry: 0.06858 – 0.06904
SL: 0.07101
TP1: 0.06716
TP2: 0.06606
TP3: 0.06442

Why this setup?
- 1D trend is **range**, not breakout—so this isn’t momentum; it’s a trap zone.
- RSI 15m at 53.9 = no fuel left for upside push.
- Entry ref 0.06881 sits **below** invalid 0.06921—price is already rejecting.
- Why now? TP1 at 0.06716 is only 2.4% away, while SL at 0.07101 is 3.2% risk—asymmetric but tight.
- Conf 55 means we’re early, but the range top is the perfect

#RedBullTradingTourSeason6
The race is back, but this time the competition is not only happening on the Formula 1 track.
It is happening in the crypto market too.
Red Bull Trading Tour Season 6 has officially arrived on Gate, bringing together the speed and excitement of Formula 1 with the strategy, discipline and competition of crypto trading.
The sixth round of the Gate competition runs from August 31 through September 28, 2026, with a prize pool that can reach up to 60,000 GT depending on total trading volume.
That alone makes this more than an ordinary trading campaign.

Four alts sit closest to Robinhood Chain. If that network keeps growing, these are the names with the most direct link.
ethereum:0xb50721bcf8d664c30412cfbc6cf7a15145234ad1 is the base layer. Robinhood did not build a new chain from scratch. It built on Arbitrum Orbit. Because of that, 10% of the network’s protocol fees flow back into ARB. If Robinhood Chain gets real volume, ARB is the first name that captures it.
$LINK is the pricing engine. Robinhood wants tokenized stock tokens on-chain. Names like Apple and Nvidia trading 24/7. Those tokens only work if the price feed is accurate every sec

I originally wanted to cut my losses and sacrifice the position to the heavens, but the ritual never happened—the meat cooked itself. 🍖
Right after I finished looking at the negative news, $AIO unexpectedly caught support at 0.04844. Normally, a dump on negative news should break support, but buying pressure kept getting stronger. Something wasn’t right. I went long with the momentum. When others are afraid, we just need to take one extra look—that’s the difference. There’s no mysticism to making money.
It’s now at 0.05275, with a return of +175.32%. Feeling great, brothers—this round wasn’t

A hand that set a stop-loss a few days ago trembled slightly; this morning I realized that was unnecessary filial piety. The last thing I saw before bed was $BTC filling the screen with green light, but I noticed funds quietly entering the market. I judged it to be a bottoming signal and quickly reminded everyone not to follow the panic and sell at a loss—hang in there, and daylight will come.

Then I opened the market this morning and saw 79774.6 shoot straight to here; calculated from 75988.0, +864.48% was secured, giving us the answer 🔥! This wave of holding on wasn’t in vain—it feels rea

$ZEC I’m Watching This Retest 👀🔥
ZEC just did what bulls wanted.
$1,000 level finally broke, and price pushed into fresh highs. But after a move this aggressive, I don’t want to chase the candle.
I want to see whether buyers can turn the breakout into support.
📍 Entry: $940 – $970
🛑 SL: $910
🎯 TP1: $1,050
🎯 TP2: $1,150
🎯 TP3: $1,250
The whole game now is around $1,000.
If ZEC holds above $1K and volume stays strong, I think the next leg could get very interesting.
But if price loses the $930–940 area, I’d rather step aside and wait for a cleaner setup.
$1K hold → bulls stay in control.

Hyperliquid’s native token $HYPE has officially entered price-discovery territory after breaking above the $88 level and printing a fresh all-time high.

This was purely the market being in a good mood and casually tossing out some gold coins, one of which just happened to hit me on the head. 💰
During the repeated intraday swings, $BTC moved sideways at the bottom around 78263.6 for ages. Volume kept shrinking, but the price simply wouldn't fall. I thought to myself: someone is defending the bottom, so what is there to fear? Go long. While everyone else was guessing the direction, I chose to read the chart and not guess.
Now it has risen to 79414.7, with returns at +205.77%—it feels great. But don't just look at the result; those who couldn't

I did nothing—just went to the bathroom, and when I came back, the candlestick chart had already done the work for me😏.

While the market was repeatedly swinging intraday, $BILL was still hovering at high levels. The upward push was weak, while the selling pressure kept getting harsher. Seeing how weak the support was, I immediately opened a short position at 0.07826. I didn't have high hopes at first, but when I came back to check the market just now, the price had dropped straight to 0.01559, +1576.49%? This was a huge profit🍗.

Four Years in Crypto Taught Me One Thing: The Next Chapter Will Be Bigger Than the Last
When I entered the crypto ecosystem four years ago, I thought the hardest part would be learning how to read charts.
I was wrong.
The real challenge was learning how to understand an industry that never seemed to stop changing.
One month, the market was dominated by a particular narrative. The next month, a completely different technology or sector was attracting attention. Prices could move dramatically, sentiment could change within hours, and developments that once sounded impossible
