The core theme is that successful crypto trading, particularly with meme coins, relies on making high-conviction, infrequent bets based on understanding narratives and market attention, rather than frequent trading driven by anxiety or a desire to feel productive.

Most people in crypto lost money in the
last 12 months, not because they're
stupid, not because they pick the wrong
coins, but simply because they trade it
too often. Crypto rewards patience more
than intelligence. And in the exact same
time period, I publicly made over a
million dollars because I implemented
this one thing that I'm going to teach
you guys in this video, and it is simply
taking high conviction infrequent bets.
And the story behind how I discovered
this trading philosophy is a pretty
interesting one. It was September of
2024, and I was in Singapore at a crypto
event. I was sitting across from one of
the most successful traders I know. A
guy that in his early 20s has made over
$50 million and he only starting crypto
about two and a half years ago. He sat
down with me and the first thing he
asked me was like, "Oh, how often are
you trading?" And me trying to impress
him was like, you know, I'm taking
multiple trades a day. I'm on my phone
and on my laptop a lot of the day. And I
was like, "Oh, so that's what your
mistake was." And I was thinking, "Okay,
I'm still not doing enough. Like this
guy's working even harder." And he said
the opposite. You're trading too often.
You know the right trades and you're
taking filler trades in between to feel
productive. And that's when it clicked
for me. It's not about how much time you
spend in front of your laptop or how
much time you spend trading. It actually
matters what results you're getting and
how much money you're actually making.
In crypto, it always feels like there's
a million things happening. The market's
pumping, the market's red, there's news
on Twitter, there's a new war, there's a
new president, the Fed is cutting rates,
there's a million things happening, and
it's very, very difficult to keep track
or be able to make the right moves. The
core problem is overtrading, and it
doesn't come from excitement. It comes
from anxiety. Small, low conviction
trades will drain your capital. You're
better off taking a couple high
conviction bets than making a million
spray and praise. I'd rather be the
sniper that's sitting up in the tree,
measuring the wind, measuring
everything, and taking the perfect head
shot than being the guy that's in the
battlefield with a shotgun, you know,
shooting a million things, getting shot,
losing. That's not where you want to be.
You want to be the one that gets the
maximum ROI with a minimal effort. So,
something I'm going to be talking a lot
about on this channel is logical
trading. And that is the basic
philosophy of how I trade and a lot of
the most successful guys I know. And it
is simply not having a 100 different
charts open, not drawing a bunch of
lines on the chart. In fact, I don't use
much technical analysis at all. I barely
even look at the chart. It is more the
underlying narrative and what is
happening in the world to shape these
narratives. All right, so let me show
you guys some examples of trades that
I've taken in recent weeks, my thinking
behind them, as well as some things I'm
looking out for in future videos. So,
one big example of a trade that I did
very, very well on in recent weeks was
White Whale. White Whale. The basic
premise was that there was a guy that
made almost $100 million on Hyperlquid
and then lost it all on 1010 and then
launched the memecoin. Let me show you
guys here. Uh on this run up in this
section started aping in and buying
higher higher and higher. Um I had seen
I'd missed the early moves. If you're
buying down here it's a good move. But
once you know it's already past 50 100
million becomes very scary for me to
buy. So instead of FOMOing in what a lot
of people did, I knew okay what goes up
must come down. So I waited. I waited
for a little bit of weakness to show.
And you see this is basically all green
candles on the way up. So as soon as
some weakness formed, these CTO's have
bad supply control. They're very
difficult to keep these narratives.
They're not sticky. You know, people
move on to the next shiny thing. So soon
as some weakness showed, I opened up
short and I caught it this whole way
down and it was an amazing short cuz a
lot of times if you missed the way up,
this the same thing that happened for me
with Trumpcoin. You know, people had
made tens of millions of dollars of
Trumpcoin. I saw it a little bit late,
but I did make a lot of money shorting.
A lot of this logical trading is based
off attention. When things are getting a
lot of attention, the price goes up, but
eventually this attention shifts away
and then the price has to come back
down. It can't stay the main talking
point forever. And this is why a lot of
money can be made shorting meme coins.
And it's something that I do very
actively and I'm going to be sharing a
lot with you guys as well as something
I'm going to take this week. There we
go. You can see here on the 8th of Jan,
I said I'm going to take the short
position and I ended up closing it here.
Well, you'll see the screen recording on
the screen. Uh 725% profit, entering in
at 1.9 and closing here at.5, which is
around these levels here. Now, another
case of the inverse of this was the
Penguin coin. So, basically here, you'll
be able to see Penguin Coin. This is a
complete live trade right now. I'm up um
2,200% and $27,000 on this. I caught
this coin super early, so I wasn't
scared to buy in because there's lower
risk when you're in early. There's a lot
of upside, but I'm going to make the
exact same trade again. Let me pull up
this chart. Right now, it's not listed
anywhere on futures. But, I believe once
this coin, you know, has its run, maybe
goes to 50 to 100 million um and gets
listed on some exchanges with futures,
eventually people are going to move on.
Although I've made a lot of money in
this coin, I'm never loyal to anything.
It's another very important concept you
need to remember is even though you love
a coin or you like the meme, don't
become loyal to it. Right now, this is
an only up chart and this looks amazing
and it can keep going for a while, but
once it starts to show some weakness and
it's listed on futures, I will be
scaling into shorts on this coin and
that's another potential opportunity
that I'm going to be looking at. So, I
think once it breaks above maybe 50 to
100 million, I do think it's somewhat
early by the time this video goes out.
Let's see. But once it's listed on some
futures platforms, I will be looking at
taking a short on this. And the amazing
thing is once the you know the attention
shifts away it's almost only down. I
mean look at the white whale chart. Like
once it starts going down it's very very
difficult to save and people move on.
And I think the same thing will play out
here. Yeah. On this channel I'm showing
you guys live what I'm taking. Like you
literally just saw I'm up almost $30,000
on this penguin. You saw the short on
white whale. Like I'm actively trading
exactly what I'm talking about. And
that's a big thing I want on this
channel is to be completely transparent
with you guys. No, of course I'm never
going to have a 100% win rate. There are
going to be losses. There's going to be
wins. But in general I am pretty good at
this. I have been doing this for years
and I can't wait to educate you guys a
lot on this. So, the key takeaways you
guys should have for this video is do
not overtrade. Only make decisions when
you really believe in them. The Penguin
video I saw super early. There's
actually a video of me on a bus. I saw
this video super early and I bought the
memecoin because I liked it and I've
become very good at spotting narratives.
And this is something I'm going to train
you guys for. And the inverse of this is
when the narratives go away. Catch the
beautiful shorts on the way down. And
this is all for meme coins. I'm going to
make another video about how I do this
with utility coins. So remember, don't
take a trade just for the sake of taking
a trade. rather sit be the snipe in the
tree that waits for the perfect
conditions and do it. There's a couple
weeks where I won't trade at all and
sometimes if there's a lot of
opportunity I'll trade a lot more. So do
not trade based on time. Trade on
opportunities that you see in the market
and this has been my massive competitive
edge. I've been able to do very well
because of this. I am not as tired. I'm
able to have a lot more free time and
I'm able to, you know, put conviction
and put size on the bets that actually
matter. Because if you trade 100 times,
maybe only putting one or two soul on
things, then it becomes a lot more
difficult to actually win. because say
you're right, you only get paid off on
that one soul instead of saying, you
know, 10 soul, 100 soul bets because you
have more conviction. I hope you guys
enjoyed the first video on this new
channel. We're doing a lot more crypto
focused stuff and I've got the links in
the description for all the products I'm
using. Most of the future trading I do
on Blofin, which will be the first link
in the bio, and then onchain trading I
use FOMO and Trojan, which I'll also put
links for in the bio. And uh yeah, super
excited about this crypto channel. Uh,
hope you guys enjoy it and there's going
