Why Do Trading Plans Keep Failing During Periods of Extreme Market Volatility?

In the crypto market, many traders do have a plan, but gradually abandon it once the market actually starts moving.

Before entering a trade, we set targets, stop-losses, and position sizes. But when the price suddenly rises, fear of missing out may prompt us to chase the market. When the price drops rapidly, fear of losses may lead us to exit early or even keep moving our stop-loss, hoping the market will reverse.

The core issue is not necessarily the ability to predict the market’s direction, but whether we can

After the Crash: This Isn’t Deleveraging—It’s AI Trading Changing Its Anchor
Many people called Thursday’s massive selloff (Nasdaq -5.52%, SOX -12%) “short-term deleveraging.” I see it differently: this is the starting point of the AI trade shifting from “telling stories” to “calculating returns,” and the divergence ahead will be more brutal than the decline itself.
Three reasons:
1️⃣ The trigger was policy, not liquidity. After a blue wave in the midterm elections, several states explicitly said they would slow or even pause data center construction. UBS estimates that about 30% of new U.S. d

Goldman Sachs slashed its gold price forecasts, citing the Federal Reserve's hawkish shift in recent months and its effect on investor positioning, while keeping a constructive longer-term view tied to strong central bank buying.

$BTC This move isn’t over, but the people who can really hold aren’t the ones glued to the charts. The people watching prices all day can’t hold; the ones who make the number of coins they hold their only goal can. You can’t control the price, but you can control how much you hold. Maybe I’m wrong—I’m ready to be proven wrong. If you’re focused on accumulation, keep an eye on #BTC

Asian Hedge Funds and Wealthy Clients Face Huge Losses in AI Selloff

What stands out most is not that Asia-Pacific stocks fell enough to trigger trading halts, but that wealthy clients who had piled on leverage were wiped out by this AI selloff😂

First, just how brutal was this rout? The Nasdaq 100 plunged on Thursday, wiping out a record $2.3 trillion in market value in a single day. Then the MSCI Asia-Pacific Index fell as much as 5.3%, while South Korea’s KOSPI plunged 8.8% intraday, triggering a trading halt.

But those are just the headline numbers; the real pain is in the accounts of h

Chip stocks have crashed, but are tech giants the better buy? Microsoft, Google, or Apple—which is the winner in the AI correction?

One question worth considering amid this sharp sell-off in AI stocks is: Which is better to hold for the long term—chip companies or tech giants? Chipmakers directly benefit from demand for AI computing power, but are also more vulnerable to order fluctuations, inventory cycles, and competitive dynamics. Large tech companies, by contrast, have mature businesses, vast customer bases, and relatively diversified revenue streams. However, even giants aren’t immune: i

Why?? @grok

Found an open-source text-to-CAD project and tried running it. Seems fine for making small things, though I have no idea what the thing in the picture is.

All I’m missing now is a 3D printer. My dream is to have a 3D printing farm with a few hundred printers, printing away all night, then going to harvest the goods the next day. If I get too busy shipping orders and taking new ones, I’ll just hire one or two people.

And then I’ll live an ordinary, uneventful life (by which I mean making over 10,000 a day).

The long position from the livestream is taking off; I took profit and got out.
Account: +800u, currently 5800u

Why Can a Strategy With a High Win Rate Still Lose Money in the End?

In cryptocurrency trading, many people pay special attention to win rates. Winning eight out of ten consecutive trades may seem quite impressive. But if the account still ends up in the red, the problem may not be the win rate, but how much is made or lost on each trade.

Suppose a trader makes 10 trades, 8 of which are profitable, earning 10 USDT each; the other 2 are losing trades, each losing 50 USDT.

The 8 winning trades bring in 80 USDT, while the 2 losing trades result in a loss of 100 USDT. Without taking fees and fu
