Every trader, no matter how experienced, eventually learns this lesson the hard way: markets don’t care about your hopes, predictions, or confidence. Prices move fast, emotions move faster, and without a clear exit plan, even a good trade can turn into a painful loss.
That’s where stop-loss and take-profit orders come in. They may look simple, but they are some of the most important tools a trader can use to survive and stay consistent in any market.

Understanding Stop-Loss and Take-Profit (Without the Complicated Talk)
A stop-loss is simply the price level where you decide, If the market reaches here, I am wrong, and I am getting out.
It exists to protect your capital when the market moves against you.
A take-profit, on the other hand, answers the question, If price reaches this level, I am satisfied with the profit, and I’ll lock it in.
That’s it. No magic. No prediction of the future. Just clear decisions made before emotions take over.

Why Traders Lose Without Them
Many beginners avoid stop-losses because they believe price will “come back.” Professionals know better. Markets can stay irrational longer than a trader can stay solvent.
Without a stop-loss:
Small losses turn into big ones
One bad trade can wipe out weeks of progress
Fear and hope replace logic
Without a take-profit:
Profits disappear during sudden reversals
Greed keeps traders holding too long
Winning trades end up breaking even or worse
In both cases, the problem isn’t the market. It’s the lack of an exit plan.

The Real Power: Control and Discipline
Trading is not about winning every trade. It’s about controlling risk.
When you set a stop-loss and take-profit:
You know exactly how much you’re risking
You know exactly what you stand to gain
Every trade becomes a calculated decision
This allows you to focus on probability, not emotion.
Professionals don’t ask, Will this trade win?
They ask, Is the risk worth the reward?
Emotional Trading Is the Silent Account Killer
Fear makes traders close winning trades too early.
Greed makes them hold losers too long.
Stop-loss and take-profit orders remove these emotions from the process. Once they’re set, the market decides the outcome not your mood, not Twitter, not panic candles.
This is especially important in volatile markets like crypto, where prices can move sharply within minutes.
Risk-to-Reward: The Language Professionals Speak
One of the biggest differences between beginners and professionals is risk-to-reward thinking.
For example:
Risking $100 to make $300
Even if you lose half your trades, you can still be profitable
Stop-loss and take-profit levels make this possible. Without them, there is no structure only guessing.

Automation Matters More Than You Think
You can’t watch charts all day. Markets move while you sleep, work, or live your life.
Stop-loss and take-profit orders work for you in the background. They protect your capital and secure profits even when you’re not around. That’s not laziness, it’s smart trading.
Common Mistakes Traders Make
Even experienced traders get this wrong sometimes:
Setting stop-losses too tight and getting stopped out by normal price movement.
Placing take-profits based on greed instead of market structure.
Moving stop-losses further away to avoid being wrong.
A stop-loss should protect you, not suffocate the trade. A take-profit should be realistic, not emotional.
Final Thoughts
If there’s one habit that separates struggling traders from consistent ones, it’s this:
Every trade must have a stop-loss and a take-profit. No exceptions.
They won’t make you win every trade, but they will:
Protect your capital
Improve consistency
Reduce emotional stress
Keep you in the game long enough to grow
In trading, survival comes first. Profits come second.
Stop-loss and take-profit orders make both possible.

$XRP 's weekly RSI just hit the lowest level since June 2022, the month of the previous bear market bottom. This means that we are looking at market conditions similar to the end of the last bear market.

Now, the reading is the lowest since then but not the lowest nor the same, it is a bit higher.

This development gives me a bullish bias but I am not stupid. This bullishness is based only on the short-term.

As you can see, $XRP USDT is set to close five consecutive weeks red with the current week having a long lower shadow. This call for some relief.

After this relief then the market moves lower again.

Whenever the market produces a bearish cycle, it never enters the next cycle in flash, suddenly. Instead, the market goes sideways for several months at bottom prices before the start of the next trend.

Let's say $XRP goes bullish for several weeks and that's it. The relief. Then it comes crashing back down. The next crash produces really extreme oversold conditions and then the market settles at bottom prices; still, no strong bullish breakout.

At the bottom we get sideways with some fluctuations. After a long while, long enough for people to get bored and many weak hands to fold, then a strong bullish breakout shows up. This move signals the start of the next market phase which tends to last a long time.

Bitcoin's halving and 4 years cycle explained

Many people have been saying that Bitcoin's four years cycle is changing or that it will change in the future—simply impossible.

The four years cycle cannot change because it has been programmed into the code. Every four years we get "the halving." And this is what causes Bitcoin's classic bullish and bearish cycles.

Before the halving, Bitcoin starts to grow really strong in anticipation of the event. This puts pressure on the entire Cryptocurrency market to grow.

Once the event happens, Bitcoin continues growing until all momentum is exhausted. The year after the halving all momentum is gone and that's the end.

The market starts to price-in the halving one year in advance. Grows before and during the halving. The momentum lasts until one year after and then we get the bear market.

That's why we get only 1 year of bearish action vs 3 years of bullish action.

Bitcoin ($BTC ) almost hit the 60,000 mark in the early session yesterday, which represents a more than -50% crash from its October 2025 $126000 All Time High (ATH).

Is it happening too soon?
Given that we haven't even completed 4 months since the ATH, the question that arises is this: Is this crash happening too soon??

Short answer: YES.

And the reason is simple and has to do with the market's macro technicals. Today's $60k Low isn't just a -50% drop from the ATH, but it is also taking place extremely close to its 1W MA200 (orange trend-line), while the 1W RSI turned oversold (below 30.00). All this is just the second week after losing the 1W MA100 (green trend-line), which has been holding as the Support in almost the past 3 months of the 1W MA50 - 1W MA100 consolidation Rectangle.

The 1W MA200 and oversold RSI
That consolidation Rectangle has always served as the pattern that transitioned BTC from its early to the final stage of its Bear Cycle. However, this is the soonest occasion historically that Bitcoin reaches its 1W MA200 from an ATH. On the 2014 Bear Cycle it took 59 weeks to do so, on the 2018 Bear Cycle, 51 weeks (both were Cycle bottoms), on the 2022 Cycle, almost half the time, 31 weeks, not a Cycle bottom. And now we are 'just' 17 weeks (119 days) after. Needless to say, it is also the soonest it hit an oversold 1W RSI state, something that has historically coincided with a 1W MA200 test, so that's consistent.

So what now?
So what does this historically earliest crash mean for us today? Well, most likely, we still have a long way to go. Given this aggressive drop, the market should continue to test at least the 1W MA350 (red trend-line), which is where the previous Bear Cycle bottomed in November 2022 (took almost as much time as the 1W MA50 - 1W MA100 consolidation Rectangle did from he moment the 1W MA200 broke) and we expect that to be around $48000 by May - June 2026.

However, based on the 4-year Cycle Theory, the Bear Cycle bottom should be around late September- October 2026. So practically the bottom could be even lower (potentially the 1W MA500 even as we presented on an analysis last month).

So what do you think? Is the fact that crashed too soon to its 1W MA200 alarming? Feel free to let me know in the comments section below!

Thank you for your attention! This is exactly what you've been hearing since September 2025. Next, we'll form the bottom, and reaccumulate until October.

A smart person told me to stop posting publicly. Make everything private, but I continue to publish my thoughts for you.
There are no entry points for positions here; my positions are elsewhere.

Right now, it’s still too early to talk about any meaningful reversal. We’re not in a recovery phase - we’re in phase two of the market cycle, and this phase tends to last longer than most expect. The structure is forming exactly as it should: slowly, unevenly, with pockets of stress that haven’t fully played out yet.

Bitcoin is dropping, but for me there’s nothing surprising in this move.
If you’ve been following my posts for a while, you know this scenario was not only possible

— it was highly probable. We’ve already reached the first target zones I highlighted earlier, and the market is now moving toward the deeper structural points that complete this segment of the cycle.

There are still shocks ahead, and the system hasn’t finished recalibrating.
This is not a trend market — this is a regime market. And regime markets demand patience, discipline, and the ability to read liquidity, not headlines.

2026: A Year of Market Regimes

2026 feels like a year defined by regimes, not direction.
This is a market that punishes overconfidence and rewards discipline: managing leverage, staying patient, and understanding liquidity matter more than any narrative.

Liquidity today behaves like a system of pipes. Sometimes the taps look wide open, yet the internal pressure shifts so fast that trends break long before the crowd can explain the move with headlines.

In these phases, Bitcoin behaves not like a “legend”, but like the most liquid proxy for risk:
under stress, it’s the first asset sold because reducing exposure through BTC is the easiest and fastest way.

This leads to a key insight:

Even during superficially “risk-on” news cycles, BTC can underperform when several forces align:

- rising demand for USD (dollar squeeze)

- carry trades unwinding

- capital rotating into leading sectors (metals, indices)

- portfolios cutting risk and closing leverage

Three Structural Scenarios for 2026

I avoid guessing levels; instead, I work with structural patterns. For 2026, I see three core possibilities:

1) Capitulation → Base Formation

A sharp washout, volatility climax, then a broad range and gradual base building.

2) Rallies Within a Larger Downtrend

Strong upside moves that turn into distribution.
The market gives hope — and takes it back on retests.

3) Macro Shock

An event in FX, rates, or liquidity triggers fast deleveraging.
Moves overshoot, correlations spike, and a violent mean reversion follows.

This is why my approach now is very simple:
fewer trades, higher quality.

I’m deliberately reducing the number of positions and focusing only on moments where structure provides a clear edge — because in years like this, capital is preserved not by activity, but by the right pauses.

About the Academy

In parallel, I’m updating my Academy in real time: weekly materials, market structure breakdowns, liquidity updates, USD dynamics, and risk indicators.

The access is open and free — anyone can stay aligned with the current regime without noise.

Current Market Structure

Looking at today’s structure, the market is forming precisely the segment I expected.
The key volume level ahead remains intact, and with high probability, price will break through it. Only after that expansion may we see the formation of the first real leg of the next cycle.

The conservative zones I mentioned earlier remain valid. More negative scenarios exist, yes — but the underlying logic does not change:

Accumulate gradually — on fear, liquidations, and liquidity distortions.
The main zone is very close, and that is where, in my view, the most interesting continuation setup will appear.

When traders look at Bitcoin, many think the biggest risk is financial loss. But in reality, $BTC isn’t just a trap for your money — it’s a trap for your emotions. The volatile nature of crypto markets triggers fear, greed, and impulsive decisions more than it threatens your actual capital.

1️⃣ Emotional Trading: The Real Trap

Bitcoin’s price can swing 5–10% in a single day. This volatility can make even experienced traders second-guess their strategies. Emotional reactions like panic selling during dips or FOMO buying during rallies often lead to losses, even for traders who understand market fundamentals.

2️⃣ Understanding Market Psychology

Success in Bitcoin trading isn’t just about numbers—it’s about mindset. Traders who control their emotions and stick to clear entry and exit strategies outperform those who react to price spikes. Recognizing the psychological traps of fear and greed is key to staying consistent.

3️⃣ Strategies to Avoid Emotional Traps
Plan your trades: Set clear entry, stop-loss, and take-profit levels.Stick to your strategy: Avoid impulsive decisions based on market hype.Journal your trades: Track decisions and emotions to learn patterns.Use technical indicators wisely: RSI, FVG, and support/resistance levels can guide decisions without emotional bias.
4️⃣ Why Long-Term Mindset Wins
Traders focused solely on short-term profits are more prone to emotional mistakes. A long-term mindset, combined with disciplined risk management, can transform Bitcoin from an emotional trap into a strategic opportunity.

💡 Key Takeaway:
Bitcoin doesn’t steal your money—it exposes your emotional weaknesses. The best traders aren’t those who predict every price move, but those who control fear and greed, sticking to their plan regardless of market chaos.
