A 38-year-old office worker learns options only by reading posts online. His account currently has $670k.
He says his return was 118% last year and 53% so far this year; the previous year also had more than 40% gains.
His account originally only bought index funds.
The 2025 tariff shock caused a clear drawdown in his account. After that, he started choosing the underlying assets himself, selling cash-secured put options.
This kind of trade is: first set aside enough money to buy the stock, then sell a put option to collect the premium. If, at expiration, the stock price falls below the agreed

The direction was stated clearly, and the pressure and target entry levels were written out plainly as well! Big-biscuit and the ETH were positioned from above in the high-altitude plan. In the morning, both pulled back and then found comfort. Big-biscuit stopped the upside and took the 2,300-point space. The pullback entry took 4.5 ten thousand in oil. Although the ETH didn’t reach the target, it was also strong—taking 100 points of space, with the pullback entry taking 3 ten thousand in oil!
Trading has no luck that comes out of nowhere. Every segment of space is the result of patiently wait

#ZEST $ZEST｜Short-Term Watch
Current price $0.24005, 24h -1.96%
Analysis conclusion: Wait and see
Market status: Mildly weaker; first check whether anyone is stepping in below.
Data basis: 42% of shorts are still in profit.
Operation reference: As long as $0.23285 holds and doesn’t break, the structure still has grounds for continuation; only after $0.24605 is passed will more upside open.
Risk warning: Don’t rush to bottom-fish while the weakness hasn’t ended.
Chart reference: The analysis result has been attached with the 15m K-line; focus on whether key levels can be effectively broken thro

【AI VS CRYPTO】
The rise of AI will not marginalize crypto technology; instead, it may make it a necessity. Coinbase CEO believes that as AI agents become increasingly independent, they must solve problems such as payments, cross-border settlement, and service interaction—traditional financial systems are too slow and too closed to meet machines-to-machines real-time needs. The seamless, decentralized features that blockchain naturally has precisely fill this gap.

$BTC South Korean stocks plunged 8%, Changxin topped the A-share market on its debut
South Korean KOSPI fell more than 8% in a single day, triggering limits on algorithmic trading. Samsung and SK hynix led a deep sell-off in the memory sector; on the other side, Changxin Technology listed on the STAR Market and surged on its first day to top the A-share market by market value. An extremely lopsided行情—one cold, one hot—reflects a major turning point in the global memory landscape.
Market action divergence is not merely a coincidence of sentiment. The South Korean stock market is highly depende

Gate has quietly launched the perpetual contracts of CXMT (ChangXin Memory Technologies)
This is the biggest IPO in A-shares this year—listed yesterday, and the contracts arrived yesterday. Gate has migrated pre-market contracts to official perpetual contracts, supporting 1–50x leverage with both long and short directions. The price is currently around 6.66 USDT, and 24-hour trading volume is over 52 million USDT
This fast-track launch highlights the crypto market’s demand for real-world assets, with the time lag from IPO to contracts being compressed to the limit
Quick reminder: the new stock

Rest easy first—only then will money actively come toward you.
Most people completely reverse cause and effect: they keep hoping to earn money so that they can feel inwardly secure and stable. But the truth is exactly the opposite—only after you steady your mind, live calmly and steadily, will wealth be willing to slowly gather around you.
The more anxious you are, the more you rush to chase wealth, and the more you’re driven by fear of being short on cash, the less you’ll be able to hold onto the funds you have. Frequent, impulsive and impatient trading easily leads to chasing breakouts and s

#CXMTDrops7.7%AtOpen
A sharp opening decline often creates fear, but experienced market participants know that the first move of the day rarely tells the entire story. The hashtag #CXMTDrops7.7%AtOpen has quickly attracted attention across financial and crypto communities as investors analyze whether this sell-off represents temporary panic, profit-taking, or the beginning of a larger trend. For traders on Gate.io Live, moments like these provide valuable educational opportunities to understand market psychology, technical analysis, and risk management rather than simply reacting to headlines

$SNDK SanDisk and Hynix—where are Micron and how did it end up like this? If you can avoid it, don’t go in. They say to short at the high and go long at the low—don’t try to BS me. Everyone knows shorting at the high and going long at the low. You say where the low is and where the high is. When it comes to the storage-idea sector, people always chase hype. If the listing period is short and it’s a storage concept, everyone rushes in—so of course the trading volume is big. On top of that, domestic storage companies getting listed suddenly has disrupted the Western—and even global—AI storage s

#StrategyInitiatesSTRCBuyback
Financial markets often respond strongly when a company announces a share buyback, as it can signal confidence in its business and long-term strategy. The hashtag #StrategyInitiatesSTRCBuyback has quickly gained attention among investors, traders, and the broader financial community. While buyback programs do not guarantee future price performance, they are frequently viewed as an important corporate finance decision that reflects management's capital allocation strategy.
For Gate.io Live viewers, understanding the purpose and potential impact of a buyback progra

This round of $SNDK short positions is absolutely a perfect strike against the four-hour “decapitation guillotine” pattern.
We issued an early warning from the main base: when the price showed a massive bearish candle breaking below the consolidation range near 1,457.39, the MACD formed a bearish crossover with the green bars expanding, and the short-side momentum fully exploded.
We promptly advised everyone to open shorts—using 50x leverage for a light-position test trade, with the take-profit target directly aimed at the prior low support at 1,185.11.
The market poured down like a waterfall

July 28 【BTC】 4H chart as expected
Good morning. The chart I shared yesterday shows that BTC has now broken below the channel, indicating the end of this rebound. So, based on what can be seen in the chart, the rebound from yesterday morning formed a head-and-shoulders top, and after breaking down it is pulling back, moving toward the first target. The first target and the second target will complete this round of decline. As for what happens next, we’ll wait and see later. For now, there’s no rush to go long!
