1/ I started tweeting this account about 2 years ago when SOL was at 30$ with less than 100 followers. Now, 2 years in, I've crossed 32k followers. after 2 years, around the same time, with potential UP-quarter I figured it’s a good time to write this thread — about how my trading style evolved from scalping to MTF positioning, and why two principles changed everything: Fold Pre & Pocket Ace. (feat. @thiccyth0t ) 2/ The Fold Pre Principle is simple. You shouldn’t have taken that trade in the first place. Low conviction positions destroy more accounts than bad entries ever will. The smartest move? Don’t enter low-conviction setups at all. 3/ This applies to life too. Jobs we hate but can’t quit. Relationships we’ve outgrown but hold onto. Dead trades we keep averaging down. Ask yourself: “If I could walk away today, free of cost, would I re-enter this position?” If not — fold pre. 4/ Markets evolved. Short-term trades are now mostly noise. Charts alone won’t show you the real upside anymore. Macro drives most of the flow now, and that’s what I began to focus on — ignoring the noise, and spending real time on research + positioning. 5/ I started just like many of you — BitMEX scalps, leaderboard runs, dopamine loops. But slowly, I changed. Because true edge started to show only on higher timeframe setups with asymmetrical reward. Scalping can’t give you life balance. Big trades can. 6/ There are many ways to make money. Airdrops, farming, funding, degen longs, sniper entries. But in the end — It’s what you do when your Pocket Aces show up that defines you. 7/ And Pocket Aces don’t come often. It’s your job to recognize them — – When fundamentals + positioning + catalysts align. – When you feel it in your gut and your spreadsheet. – When the only thing left is to size in and execute. 8/ That’s how I treat my trading now. Not as a trade. But as an investment. If the opportunity doesn’t align with a clear narrative or conviction — I skip it. If it does, I size in. Simple. 9/ Everyone has different edges. Some people are great at scalping. Some at hunting airdrops. Some at L1 narratives, farming or option flow. Don’t copy others. Just know your Pocket Aces. And when they come, bet like your life depends on it. 10/ Fold Pre is the art of restraint. Pocket Ace is the art of commitment. Both require experience. Both require pain. But if you can master just these two — You’ll not only survive this market. You’ll win. 11/ It looks like we’ll need to enter positions ourselves before mid-month. Keep it simple: → Focus on a few key narratives → Don’t over-complicate → Don’t over-trade → Have conviction in the bet you chose, researched, and verified. Believe in yourself. Keep some cash on the side for new narratives. Time to lock in.
