What Should a Trading Journal Record to Truly Help Improve Trading Performance?
In cryptocurrency trading, many people focus on profits and losses every day, but rarely take the time to record why they entered or exited a trade, or what went wrong during execution. Without systematic records, traders are likely to repeat mistakes and find it difficult to determine whether a strategy is actually effective.
First, record the basic details of every trade. Include the trading pair, direction, entry price, exit price, time, position size, and leverage. These details help you reconstruct the trade i

Yesterday’s 11.4 BTC Long/Short Strategy Review (Reposted)
【Trade Summary】: $BTC
Yesterday morning, the price broke below the previous low of 762 and hit a low of 75690.2. A reversal signal appeared, so I entered a long position at 762 in the morning, with a take-profit level at 810, offering 4,800 points of upside.
A short position could have been taken in the morning with the trend, but the market was in an uptrend all day, making it difficult to enter a short.
【Strategy Review】:
Long entry in the 762–768 range; the fourth target above 800 has been reached.
The short thesis failed; the mark

What Is the Sharpe Ratio? How Can You Measure Whether the Returns From a Trading Strategy Are Worth the Risk?
In cryptocurrency trading, a high return does not necessarily mean a strategy is good. If a strategy can generate high returns but comes with sharp volatility and significant drawdowns, we need to further assess whether those returns are worth the associated risk. The Sharpe ratio is one tool that can help answer this question.
First, what is the Sharpe ratio?
The Sharpe ratio measures the excess return earned by a portfolio or trading strategy per unit of volatility risk. Generally, t

Democrats Win Both Chambers of Congress: What It Means for Bitcoin, US Stocks, Oil and Gold
Step-by-step breakdown of the 2026 midterm result and its possible effects on markets
The 2026 US midterm elections have produced a significant political shift. Preliminary results and early reporting show that Democrats have won control of both chambers of the US Congress. Reporting from the Associated Press, carried by PBS NewsHour, described Democrats winning the House and taking unified control of Congress as a rebuke of the Trump administration. The Council o

I think this gold rally is only just getting started. Physical gold held by central banks is getting increasingly scarce. This isn’t simply a price issue; it’s a matter of inventory and delivery. According to data from the World Gold Council, central banks have been net buyers of more than 1,000 tonnes of gold for three consecutive years: about 1,136 tonnes in 2022, 1,037 tonnes in 2023, and 1,045 tonnes in 2024. That’s a clear step up from the average of 400 to 500 tonnes a year over the past decade. Meanwhile, the “visible” buffers—such as free-float inventories in London vaults and delivera

$BTC $1.424 billion in liquidity is clustered below! The key zone is right around $79,900. There’s also $102 million above at $81,500! The liquidity below is nearly 14 times larger than above. Could we see a sweep below first, followed by a counterattack? The liquidity data shows about $1.424 billion clustered below BTC near $79,900, while about $102 million sits above near $81,500—a clear gap between the two sides. In the short term, it’s worth watching whether selling pressure triggers a further sweep as the price approaches $79,900, and whether buyers can step in in time. With more position

Machi Big Brother is making a killing again!
He’s not only going long but also adding to his position, increasing from over 2,000 contracts to nearly 6,700 with 25x leverage. His latest average entry price is 2366, and unrealized gains have topped $460k, but his liquidation price has also been pushed up to 2391.
Big Brother is charging ahead with total confidence, but I’m actually not very optimistic about this move in the short term. I recommend positioning for shorts near 2450.
The reason is simple:
This rebound after the election results came in looks more like a short squeeze following the

11.5 Midday Analysis$BTC
After a sharp rally yesterday, Bitcoin has now entered a consolidation and recovery phase. The lower Bollinger Band is providing support, bearish MACD momentum has eased somewhat, and the KDJ has turned upward from low levels. The broader weak trend is gradually improving, and the current pullback can be viewed as a healthy confirmation during the bottoming process. The room for an upside rebound deserves close attention.
After pulling back to its low on the 4-hour chart, the price stabilized and moved higher. The Bollinger Band channel is gradually rising, MACD volum

One thing I genuinely appreciate about what is happening in Enugu is the deliberate effort to position the state for the future.
I came across this update from the Enugu SME Center, and I think it deserves attention.
At the Southeast Blockchain & Games Week 2026, the Enugu MSME & Startup Agency joined developers, founders and creatives working to advance Africa’s Web3 and gaming ecosystem. The agency also participated in discussions on how African innovations can gain more visibility on the global stage.
But beyond the event, what interests me is the bigger picture.
