This is Munehisa Homma:

- Invented candlestick charts in the 1700s
- Became a Samurai just through trading
- Built a $10B fortune using market psychology

His trading secrets have dominated markets for 300+ years.

5 core patterns from the godfather of price action trading:🧵 Born in 1724 in Sakata, Japan, Homma inherited his family's rice trading business.

But he didn't just continue the family legacy...

He transformed from merchant to an expert in market psychology.

In an era without electricity or computers, he created a system so powerful it changed history.

This is Richard Dennis:

- Turned $400 into $200 million
- Taught 23 random people to make $175M in 5 years

His legendary trading system proved that anyone could become a millionaire - if they followed his rules.

7 trading principles from the man who shocked Wall Street:🧵
(that still work in crypto today) In the 1970s, Dennis started as a trading floor runner at 17.

By 23, he was a millionaire.

By 37, he was worth $200M.

His secret?

A mechanical trend-following system that worked in ANY market condition.

No prediction. No emotion. Just ruthless adherence to his rules.

This is Mark Douglas.

He wrote “Trading in the Zone,” one of the greatest trading books of all time.

But his live lectures go even deeper.

I’ve studied hours of them and collected his best teachings.

10 of his priceless insights that will instantly make you a better trader:🧵 1. "I don’t have to know what's going to happen next to make money as a trader."

Most traders feel the need to predict – but markets don’t offer certainty.

Like a casino, your edge plays out over time.

The moment you release the need to be right, you unlock consistency.

This is Dr. David Paul.

An ex-Royal Marine who became a trading legend.

He cracked the trading psychology code and taught his secrets to bank traders for 40+ years.

Here are 10 priceless insights you need to know if you want to be a profitable trader:🧵 1. "Most people are in the market to solve the puzzle, not make money."

This single insight explains why 90% of traders fail.

They obsess over being right instead of being profitable.

The market isn't a puzzle to solve.

It's about probability and capital preservation.

This economist created a philosophy based on one radical idea:

Government is the greatest threat to human freedom.

He is the godfather of anarcho-capitalism.

7 ideas from one of America’s most controversial economists that will transform your worldview🧵 1. "If the State may do anything, then no area of human liberty can possibly exist.”

Your entire life comes down to decision-making.

No centralized authority can accurately act in EVERYONE’s best interest.

They act and we follow. Have a goal or you will be assigned one.

This Wall St strategist thrives when others panic.

He predicted:

- S&P 500’s post-COVID surge
- $BTC's run to $100K

His newest 2025 market updates? Bullish.

Here’s what Tom Lee is predicting and why everyone’s listening:🧵 Tom Lee is the founder of Fundstrat Global Advisor.

Known for being a permabull, he’s made a name for himself by nailing bullish calls when others are hesitant.

Here’s an example:

Back in 2020, everyone was panicking after the COVID dump but not Lee…

In 1926, she escaped Soviet Russia with nothing.

In 1991, her novel "Atlas Shrugged" was the 2nd most influential book in the US after the Bible.

But she was hated by intellectuals for her radical principles.

Here are 7 Ayn Rand ideas that will change how you see the world🧵 1. Limited Government

"The only proper purpose of a government is to protect man's rights."

Rand meant specifically protection from physical violence.

When government grows beyond this narrow role, it becomes the threat it should prevent.

This Yale professor can see into the future.

He predicted both:

- The dot-com bubble
- The 2008 financial crisis

But no one listened to him.

Here’s Robert Shiller’s next warning and the secret to his predictions: 🧵 In March 2000, Yale economist Robert Shiller published "Irrational Exuberance" – warning that tech stocks were massively overvalued.

The market crashed exactly as he predicted.

Investors lost $5 trillion.

But he was just getting started...

🚨 WHEN’S ALT SEASON? IS THE BULL CYCLE OVER?

Here’s the Macro 101 guide for crypto with everything you need to know.

What’s going to be covered:

1. US Dollar Index
2. Global Liquidity + Global M2
3. Quantitative Easing & Tightening
4. Current Market Update

Let’s dive in…

1. US Dollar Index (DXY)

The DXY tracks how the dollar stacks up against a basket of major currencies (Euro, Yen, Pound, etc.).

It’s a snapshot of the dollar’s strength globally.

Why care?

A strong DXY screws risk assets – especially altcoins.

Most crypto trades against the dollar, so when it’s climbing, your alts lose steam—fast.

It’s not just price; a rising dollar signals tighter money conditions, basically squeezing liquidity out of the markets, and risk assets like crypto hate that.

Look at past alt seasons: DXY peaks, alts bleed.

But a falling DXY is a green light.

Weaker dollar, looser cash, and traders pile into riskier bets like altcoins.

So where are we now?

IMO it looks like the DXY has topped.

DXY coming deep into the range is basically a confirmed top.

All Trump’s policies are pushing it down.

And there’s a good chance that tanking the dollar is high on his to-do list.

He’s done this before.

See here how this has played out historically:

2. Global Liquidity + Global M2

Global liquidity is how much money’s floating around the world economy.

More cash = more fuel for markets, including crypto.

High liquidity flips the switch to risk-on. Investors stop hoarding and start chasing gains—altcoins thrive in that sort of chaos.

Enter global M2: the measurable money supply—cash, checking accounts, and near-cash assets like savings, tracked across major economies (US, Eurozone, China).

It’s a core driver of liquidity.

When central banks cut rates or inject cash, M2 expands, boosting available funds and often sparking altcoin rallies.

Tightening—rate hikes or asset sales—shrinks M2, draining liquidity and hitting crypto hard. The Fed’s a key player, but global M2 reflects broader trends.

M2 growth aligns with alt season triggers. Watch central bank signals and M2 data—rising numbers mean altcoins could be gearing up.

And M2 is starting to trend up again.

Great chart by @BittelJulien :

Historically how has this looked?

Well, compared to previous cycles we haven’t even seen any substantial money supply growth at all.

There’s more to this when we look at what the macro conditions are at the moment.

i.e. What’s the Fed doing?

This is Richard Wyckoff.

100 years ago, he exposed how Wall Street's "smart money" manipulated markets through predictable patterns.

But Hedge funds still use his 4-phase market cycle today to accumulate BILLIONS.

Here's a full guide on the timeless Wyckoff Method:🧵 Richard Wyckoff started at the very bottom.

At just 15 years old, he worked as a stock runner—rushing orders across the NY Stock Exchange floor.

But by 25?

He owned his own brokerage firm.

Today, he’s known as one of the titans of technical analysis.

CBS was forced to release Kamala Harris’ raw unedited 60 mins interview.

The one that Trump sued CBS for $10 BILLION.

I was curious how different the versions would be…it was a tough watch.

Here are 6 key highlights that were edited the most🧵: 1. Discussions about the economy

Edited:

Trump just signed an Executive Order to create a Sovereign Wealth Fund.

This is HUGE – but you probably don't know why.

It's because of this man:

Howard Lutnick, the US Secretary of Commerce.

Here's how insanely pro-crypto he is and why this is all so bullish🧵: We literally have Senator Cynthia Lummis, the self-proclaimed “Bitcoin Senator” posting about it.

I wonder why?..

Let’s dive in.

Deepseek R1, the new Chinese AI released last week and since then:

- It’s #1 on App store
- Whole of crypto dumped
- NASDAQ 100 futures down

But why have the markets reacted so violently to Deepseek?

Here’s everything you need to know and what this means for crypto🧵: So what is Deepseek?

It’s a Chinese AI startup that’s suddenly appeared and rocked the whole industry – a competitor to top US language models like ChatGPT and Claude.

But why the hype?

It’s outperforming ChatGPT for a fraction of the cost AND…

President Trump officially pardoned Ross Ulbricht.

He was sentenced to life in prison for creating the Silk Road – the highly controversial, free, and open platform on Tor.

Trump just freed him.

Here’s his story and why this is HUGE for crypto🧵: Ross Ulbricht grew up in Austin Texas.

He showed promise from a young age becoming an Eagle Scout and getting a full ride to the University of Texas at Austin.

But it wasn’t until during his Master’s at Penn state where he became a serious Libertarian.

This is Bitcoin:

- “Digital gold”
- Created in 2009 by the mythical Satoshi Nakamoto
- $1 invested in 2010 = $23+ MILLION in 2025

But most still don't know what it is or how it works.

Here's everything you need to know about the King of Crypto🧵:
(+current market update) First, Bitcoin's mysterious creator:

Satoshi Nakamoto.

Vanished in 2011 leaving behind:

- 1 million BTC (worth $96B today)
- A revolutionary whitepaper
- Zero traces of their identity

Despite multiple claims, Satoshi’s identity remains unknown but his legacy lives on:

In 1775, America tried to liberate Canada from British rule.

250 years later, Trump wants to make it the 51st state.

Today, PM Justin Trudeau resigned.

Canada joining the US might not be as crazy as people think.

Here's what you need to know and how it could affect crypto🧵: BREAKING: PM Justin Trudeau resigns!

A lot happening with Canada currently.

But let’s start at the beginning…

This is Paul Atkins:

- Trump’s selection for the new SEC chair
- Crypto holder
- Libertarian

He's a HUGE reason why you should be bullish going into 2025.

8 key moments that reveal Paul Atkins’ stance on crypto 🧵: 1. The US is about to have an SEC chair who admires Milton Friedman and openly states:

“The government’s here to protect you is always the joke.”

Chances are you’re not bullish enough.

In 2022, I lost $1.2 million in one day when FTX went under.

It crushed me mentally and I couldn’t trade for months.

But then a top trader at Goldman Sachs taught me a mind hack from Aristotle that changed my life.

Here's how to reprogram your mind to thrive in this cycle 🧵: After losing 50 $BTC in one day, my trading psychology was wrecked.

I couldn't handle any risk and would feel physically sick when entering any trade.

I was then introduced to:

Metacognition – the awareness of your thought processes and the patterns behind them.

This is Milton Friedman:

- Nobel Prize winner
- Predicted Bitcoin in 1999
- Taught economics to MILLIONS using just a pencil

He even gave us the blueprint for @DOGE in an interview.

8 mind-blowing lessons from the most influential economist of our time 🧵: 1. "I think the government solution to a problem is usually as bad as the problem and very often makes the problem worse.”

Friedman warned us about excessive government intervention.

He saw this as freedom's biggest threat.

Here he is giving the blueprint for @DOGE :

lets go BTC bulls
