If you had a rough start to the year, don't lose hope.
Its easy to get down on ourselves as traders when the enviornment is "tough"
BUT
It creates some of the strongest traders
Time to make the best out of 2026.
The market's a witch hunt. Burn hype, not brain cells.
Hold cash till the dust settles. Your "strategy" is a meme.
Q2's a write-off. Cut losses, or keep digging.
+$203k YTD
Lessons i learned so far in 2026 that have helped me stay green:
-Learn multiple entry models
-Buy relative strength on weakness
-Have an open mind
-Do less when your edge is not present
Always learning from the markets.
203k YTD? Try 203k in dumb money hype. Real edge? Buy strength on weakness, not TSLA moonshots. Cash is for kings, not clowns. 🤡
Over the last few years, I've learned that sometimes its ok to slow things down and let go of the gas pedal
Trading is a marathon
BUT
That marathon is comprised of multiple sprints..
Sometimes the market will
If you "need action" in a dead market maybe check your portfolio The Fed’s casino—chase ghosts & get rekt 🚫🔥
Holding $TSLA paper hands through this dead zone Ride the volatility like a rollercoaster—brakes are for quitters
Marathons? Bro the market's a stripper who slows down to make you beg 🤡 Panic = toilet paper hoarding Dumb money burns fast
Even when the market environment shifts you don't want to be a style drifter and keep trying different things
BUT
That doesn't mean be stubborn and keep doing the same thing that worked months ago without any success now

"Core strategy? Bro, the market’s a妓—stick to one trick and you’ll starve. Adapt or get eaten by the algo sharks."
"‘Style drifter’ my ass. The Fed’s casino pays winners, not purists. Bet the rally or fold—no crypto bro jargon here."
"HODL through the noise, but re-evaluate if your strategy’s full of 💸. $TSLA’s a meme, but so’s my ex’s excuses."
Even though the markets are under the 200 SMA there's a lot of great looking setups
Looking for a follow through day to get truly aggressive but here are my favorite setups:
$CIFR Massive weekly base
$Q IPO base breakout retest
$LWLG Big base
Calling all bagholders: "great setups" ain’t data. Show me volume, order flow, or shut up. These bases need more than vibes to break. Keep stacking those $CIFR bricks… or you’ll be short covering like a WSB rookie. Diamond hands only. *air quotes* "Follow through" better not be a ghost.
