《Dad's Shady Spot Trading Plan》
Check out the small image for specifics. Initially, I was going to write a detailed piece, but then I thought, if I write a few hundred words for every coin, first off, you guys won't have time to read it, and secondly, I won't have time to write it. Most importantly, since late April, I've been waiting for Bitcoin to pull back and break the previous low before executing my spot buying plan. Currently, $BTC has hit a low of 64000, close to breaking that previous low, so I’ll keep it relatively brief.

Summary:
1. I'm not too bullish on Ethereum's future, so I don't recommend coins too heavily tied to Ethereum (like $LDO , ENS, etc.). Sure, some projects are on the ERC chain, but coins that don't have a strong correlation with Ethereum itself (like Virtual) remain unaffected. Some tokens (like SAFE) have intricate ties with Ethereum, but the projects can completely detach from Ethereum in the future, so I’m listing those as well.

2. Investment has its phases. For instance, US stocks are still riding the AI wave, and tech stocks are relatively high, so bottom-fishing in 2026 shouldn't focus on the AI sector. The only exception is $VVV , which has revenue-generating capabilities and continues to buy back and burn tokens. For meme coins, aside from the early movers (the '土狗'), investing in memes should primarily be done in 2027; 2026 isn't a good year to invest heavily. As for platform tokens, aside from monsters like hype that use 90% of profits for buybacks and burns, most platform tokens should be focused on in 2028/29 since they typically surge during the final dance of a bull market. As a bonus, considering the high possibility of a DEX explosion in the next bull market, platform tokens in that cycle should mainly be DEX-related.

3. With institutions getting involved, the wealth-generating capability of memes may diminish, giving way to projects that can truly bring wealth effects. Among these, the clear revenue-generating capabilities lie within DeFi and exchanges, so investment should focus on these two sectors. Additionally, LINK’s income is actually decent, though the correlation between the token and the project is a bit weak.

A quick update.
1. I sold off my altcoin spot holdings in two batches, at the end of August and the end of September. It looks like that was the right call. This afternoon, when Bitcoin fell below 68,000, I bought back into altcoins with half of my capital, including layer-1s, platform tokens, RWA, and DeFi. For meme coins, I only bought $PENGU .
I’ve mirrored the trades in my spot trading signals, so if you’re interested, you can check the position sizes and entry prices.
2. About $XAU : after my last market analysis came out, a lot of people asked me about it. Honestly, I don’t have much to say. I previously made a video about gold, where I shared my years of experience trading gold futures. Gold has actually been the asset I’ve traded best in my live portfolio. If you’re interested, you can check out that video. But my approach and opinions may not be that important, since I hold positions for a long time.
3. I don’t know how far major coins will fall. Sentiment is very fearful. I currently have both long and short positions, and I’m waiting for a reversal in direction too.
4. I’ve started a strategy group. On weekdays, I’ll share strategies and views on major coins, as well as short-term levels, in the group between 8 and 10 a.m. The fee is fairly low, and there’s a one-week trial, so you can try it out for a week first—it’s free.
5. I haven’t really looked after my rebate clients over the years, and I feel quite bad about that. After all, they could have chosen other KOLs, but they chose me in the end. That’s been real financial support for me, to some extent. So all rebate clients, past and future, can access the strategy group content for free.
6. I’ll resume the tutorial videos you’ve been asking for starting this weekend. Then, starting in December, I’ll resume publishing market analyses weekly.
7. My live trading account has always been completely public.
At the moment, my spot holdings in major coins are fully allocated, I’ve put half my capital into altcoin spot holdings, and I haven’t built up much of a position in futures longs yet.
Once my futures positions grow, I’ll switch my live trading account from fully public to partially public.
At that point, clients in the strategy group and rebate group will be able to use a subscription code to see my specific trades.

I got my hair cut, but it looks like I didn’t even get it cut 😭

Crypto Monthly Market Analysis (10.31)
Summary:
1. Do U.S. stocks always rise after the midterm election cycle?
2. Do fundamentals suggest a bear market for U.S. stocks?
3. Where is Bitcoin's bottom?
4. The trading plan is the same in each of these scenarios.

Trading plan:
1. Holding the short position $BTC ; close the short and go long at 71888;
2. Holding the short position $ETH ; close the short and go long at 2120;
3. Holding the short position $SOL ; close the short and go long at 87.5;
4. At the end of every month, dollar-cost average into 3w worth of BTC and 1w worth of SOL.

As for altcoins, after closing all my positions at the end of August and again at the end of September, I haven't bought anything since. Looking back, I'd say I managed to get out near the top. I'll look for an opportunity to re-enter in November, and I'll be moving forward with the trade signals at the same time. I'll adjust the coins a bit, swapping in two meme coins and taking the wallet coin out, but LINK and PUMP should still make up the bulk of it.

A follower asked me to talk about A-shares. I actually shared my view that we'd enter a bear market in 2026/27 when the index was around 4100 at the start of the year. Long-time followers should remember that before 9/27/24, I posted at least three or four market analyses in a row urging everyone to build positions.
From a cyclical perspective, A-shares should start gaining momentum in the second half of 2027, while 2028 is when the real bull market begins. Until then, the market probably won't perform especially well. There's near-term support around 3400. The sectors worth watching are pharmaceuticals and consumer goods. In pharmaceuticals, I'd still focus on CXO; in consumer goods, liquor, apparel, and white goods are all worth a look. But the major-cycle support should be around 3100.

As for gold, I opened my long-term short in mid-March at 5000 and closed it once in late March. Later, when it rebounded to 4800, I added back the position I'd closed. When it fell to 4100, I closed half the position. Then, when it rebounded to 4600, I added back the position I'd closed. My current short has an average entry price of 4800, and I've held it for over six months. I've made a pretty penny just from funding fees alone. And that's not even counting the two times I went long in between and basically closed at the highs. I've shared my live trades publicly the whole way—I can honestly say that when it comes to gold, I'm the only one I trust across the whole internet, haha. I don't plan to touch my current short; my plan is to hold it until I close it in 2029.

Crypto Market Monthly Analysis (09.30)
Summary:
1. Under October rate hikes and the risk-asset price patterns during the rate-hike cycle.
2. U.S. Treasury liquidity extraction, with the unemployment rate at a cyclical low. The conditions for the U.S. stock market to top are almost already in place.
3. The Korean composite index that nobody cares about anymore.
4. Big BTC is very likely in the early stage of a bull market, but it’s still missing a daily-level pullback.
5. Be patient and wait for the first weekly-level “second buy” to emerge during the bull market.
6. The probability of making new lows is extremely low, but it’s still not recommended to use too much leverage—always watch out for downside.

Trading plan:
1) $BTC short position is being held; close the short at 69333 and open a long.
2) $ETH short position is being held; close the short at 2050 and open a long.
3) $SOL short position is being held; close the short at 90 and open a long.
4) Every month do DCA: 3wu worth of BTC and 1wu worth of SOL at month-end.

My main spot portfolio is currently in a “buy only, never sell” state. For the altcoin spot: half was sold on August 30th, and the other half was sold on September 29th—so my altcoin holdings are fully cleared right now.
My spot that I manage was created in June. In three months it only grew by about 35%, which is relatively low. But that’s also reasonable—altcoin booms usually concentrate in the latter half of the bull market, meaning from late 2027 through end of 2028, when altcoins will finally see a broad-based surge.
By then, it will be common to see gains of 10x or 20x. Before that, getting an overall doubling would already be pretty good.

As for time cycles: if the 4-year cycle truly doesn’t exist anymore, is that good news or bad news for retail investors? Specifically, if a bear market that normally takes a year only finishes in 8 months, then would a bull market that normally takes three years finish in two years? Or would the bull market extend to 3.5 years?
No one can say for sure. For the “coin hoarders,” that means days won’t be easy.

Similarly, the bull-market tops were: 2013 at 1240, 2017 at 19000, 2021 at 69000, and 2025 at 126000. The multiples were 15x, 3.6x, and 1.8x respectively—each cycle’s rally amplitude keeps shrinking. If we assume this cycle’s peak is 1.5 times the previous cycle’s peak, then the top of this bull market would be only 189000 (in reality, reaching 180k would already be quite difficult).
Then if the 4-year cycle still holds: if BTC reaches around 180k by 2029, what do you think the highs in 2028 and 2027 would be?
In short, try not to buy at the beginning-of-8 positions. Of course, DCA is a different logic.

Crypto markets monthly chart breakdown (08.30)
Summary:
1. Spend a large section talking about US Treasuries
2. Signals that suggest the US stock market is relatively risky
3. Talk about gold
4. Spot DCA and holding short positions can run in parallel
5. The US stock market performance during the rate-hike cycle

On the actions:
1. Short position $BTC is still being held; take-profit at 56000;
2. Short position $ETH is still being held; take-profit at 1600;
3. Short position $SOL is still being held; take-profit at 65;
4. At the end of every month, DCA 3wu into the big pie and 1wu into SOL

First, I want to clarify: holding short positions and spot DCA are not contradictory. But whether the newly bought spot should be transferred into a coin-specific (coin-matching) account—I’ll consider it further.

Then, regarding my spot copy-trading: today I sold half of the position. The reason is that although the altcoin season index is still relatively low, the greed index is already very high—this is something I want to point out to everyone as well.

All in all, my short positions will most likely be held until the end of September. Here are a few reasons:
1. Historically, September has been the worst month for US stocks.
2. Since 1990, the S&P 500 has, in the period from August 18 to October 11 in midterm election years, experienced at least a 7% pullback every year except 2006. But 2006 already recorded a 9% drop in May to July in advance, so in a way it just shifted the adjustment earlier.
3. As mentioned earlier, the probability of the US resuming hikes on September 16 is over 50%.
4. On September 17, Japan is highly likely to raise rates as well. Historically, every time before Japan’s rate hike, the big pie officially starts to decline, and the drop has never been less than 20%.
So no matter what, I will at least hold the short positions until the end of September, but latest I shouldn’t hold them beyond mid-October.

BTW, 2027 might be a year where US stocks continue to trend bearish, while the big pie trades in a range but strengthens.

Also, there’s another thing: a while back I mentioned liking a video account’s group-broadcast host. Her name is Jiu Jiu. These days she just so happens to be competing in the month赛 in the live room of the Dream-Building Cup event. I hope everyone has time to go support her—she’s truly very hardworking.

The long position in the gold from $XAU was just closed. I originally had it set at 4600, but I didn’t have much patience, so I changed it to 4500. That means I held it for more than two months to make less than 70,000.
But the rebound probably isn’t over yet—it can still go up more, and reaching 5000+ again is completely normal. It’s just that for levels above 4600, I’m still considering adding to the short position I currently hold at better prices. After all, I never intended to take this long position all the way to the maximum.

I’ll still share the market analysis, but I’ll wait until I’m a bit lighter on shorts. I’ve been quite busy lately. But honestly, whether I post a market analysis or not doesn’t seem to matter much—very few people can actually follow my trades… For example, with this gold long position, I held it for a little over two months. For me, that cycle is quite normal, but for 99% of people, it seems like a very long cycle.
My gold short position average price is 5000+. That means I’ll hold it even longer—the holding period for that short is probably around two and a half years. I feel like very few people currently hold gold short positions with an average price above 5000… even the partners who joined me later at the time…

Finally, I wish everyone a happy Qixi Festival. I’ve had so many bad-romance situations lately, and I’m a bit tired. But recently I started following a female streamer in a group broadcast—she’s really kind. It’s basically a good piece of news regarding relationships. Before the month’s competition, I’ll tell you all the details, and I hope you can support her. She dances really well and works hard.

Crypto market monthly review and analysis (07.22)
Summary:
1. The pace of Federal Reserve rate hikes.
2. The stock market being overbought and the precarious situation of leveraged traders.
3. The essence of leveraged ETFs is a mathematical problem.
4. Gold: long-term bearish and short-term bullish.
5. Let’s talk about the real estate market.
6. The rebound isn’t over yet—go short first.

In terms of operations:
1) $BTC : build short positions in batches in the 66,000–71,000 range. Liquidation price above 80,000; take profit at 56,000.
2) $ETH : build short positions in batches in the 1,950–2,150 range. Liquidation price above 2,400; take profit at 1,350.
3) $SOL : build short positions in batches in the 78.5–85 range. Stop loss above 95; take profit at 55.
4) Monthly: DCA 3wu worth of BTC and 1wu worth of SOL at the end of each month.

Because I really don’t believe that BTC at 66,800 is the peak of this rebound, and the altcoin season index is currently around 55 and hasn’t touched above 75. So the altcoin spot I bought earlier will still be held a bit longer, but at the latest by mid-August I will sell the altcoins and wait for a lower level to buy back.

For ETH and SOL, their exact price points are somewhat unclear. It’s not out of the question that 0.025 and 0.001 are the lowest points of their respective BTC exchange rates during this bear market. In trading, overall ETH and SOL should still follow BTC—don’t overthink the precise levels.

There are many reasons why I think there will be a high point, yet I set up short positions early. First, for coin-denominated shorts: a 1x short will not be liquidated, so going short early is effectively just hedging; you can earn funding fees too—no matter how you look at it, it’s not a losing trade. Also during a bear market, try not to guess the top—sometimes the market can suddenly drop big on you. And for the U.S. stock market, August is generally not a great month, so the chance that BTC tops in August is relatively high as well. So it makes sense to establish a bottom-position early and then gradually add over the next 2–3 weeks, from a time-cycle perspective.

I will continue holding the U.S. stock shorts—at least until the Nasdaq reaches around 22,000. From the timing perspective, it’s roughly near the MA125 on the weekly chart. At that point, I’ll close half of the U.S. stock short positions and secure it at break-even. Until then, just be patient and hold. In fact, the funding fees for my individual shorts have already exceeded my margin; so regardless, it won’t turn into a loss.

My long short position of $BTC was closed at 57777 this morning, and then I bought 50000u of spot. The long short position of $SOL was closed last night, and then I bought 20000u of spot.

My plan for my spot holdings next is: over the next 6 months, buy 30000u of BTC at the end of every month, and buy 10000u of SOL at the end of every month. In addition, for altcoins (including shitcoins), I’ve allocated a total budget of 50000u (of which 15000u will be placed in a copy-trading account, and the money in that account will not be withdrawn for the next 3 years). In short, the capital I’m using to bottom-pick this bear cycle is about 360,000u.

As for contracts: after I closed my SOL short position yesterday, I also同步（did in parallel） set up a small position in a coin-margined long. But unfortunately, after my BTC short position was closed this morning, I only ended up buying spot, and I didn’t enter the long position before it pumped. That’s on me—I previously had a tiny leftover BTC amount in my coin-margined account, so this morning I thought it had already transferred in, but in reality it hadn’t. I only realized once I opened the long, and by then it was already too late. The position was too small.

Anyway, I’ve currently placed an order around 58000 and I’ll see if I can get filled and benefit from it over the next couple of days.

There are a lot of new followers, so I’ll mention it again: in every trend order of mine, I always reserve at least two opportunities for averaging down—don’t come in and YOLO everything right away.

Monthly Market Analysis in Crypto (2026.06)
Summary:
1. CPI, crude oil inventories, and unemployment rates reflect the fundamentals.
2. The financial tsunami is expected to occur around July 29 after the FOMC meeting.
3. From SanDisk to U.S. stocks.
4. Major expenditures from tech companies have yet to be priced in.
5. Structural risks in U.S. equities.
6. The certainties and uncertainties of Bitcoin.
7. Reasons for bullish sentiment in July but not going long in late June.
8. How to view the 59000 level?
9. Some personal thoughts.

Operations:
1. Holding a short position on $BTC with a take profit at 58000 (can take half profit at 61000);
2. Holding a short position on $SOL with a take profit at 60;
3. Gradually accumulating longs in the 58000-53000 range, stop loss at 49000, take profit at 73000;
4. Looking at short-term, there's a long opportunity at 61000 for $BTC (needs a stop loss at 59000).

Adding to altcoin positions gradually, there's a good chance for a small altcoin season in July/August, but in case it doesn't happen, be prepared to hold spot until 2027.

Historically, gold tops have lasted over six months, so the probability of gold rising in July/August is also high. While holding high-position shorts, it's still possible to enter longs. However, after August, avoid going long on gold as it could enter a prolonged downtrend at any time, making it more rational to add to shorts at highs, potentially holding them until the end of Bitcoin's bull market (Q3 2029).

I opened a spot trading signal, and this isn't something for you all to follow blindly; it's more for you to observe.
A few days ago, I posted a list of altcoin spot trades (see pinned post), and some friends told me that just looking at this list doesn't really help them understand how to buy specifically. There were also friends in the chatroom who mentioned they didn't know the exact position ratios for each altcoin or the entry prices.
So, I came up with this idea. In this signal, I will share the position ratios of my personal spot account (excluding $BTC , $ETH , $SOL , and BNB). In short, all information will be public, which can provide you with some reference.
The main issue is that currently, there are only contract trades available, no spot trades, so we have to take a roundabout way for now. Please bear with me.

Of course, following along is fine too. Let me briefly explain how I plan to execute this signal.
Bull Market Period:
The cryptocurrencies will primarily be those listed in my list. I will buy when market sentiment is fearful + altcoin season index < 25, go full position when extreme fear + altcoin season index < 20, sell half when greedy + altcoin season index > 75, and go all out when extreme greed + altcoin season index > 80. The data will be taken from the average values of coinmarketcap and coinglass.
Bear Market Period:
Conditions will be slightly relaxed (it's tough to be greedy in a bear market), but the overall trading logic remains the same.

It's worth mentioning, either don't follow or if you do, try to stick to 1000u or more. My funds are spread out, so I might not be able to buy into some coins.

My $ETH just hit take profit, bagging around 750 points. Back on May 18th in the market analysis (the article was written on the 17th), I clearly mentioned that $BTC would see 58000, and Ethereum would hit 1600, while Bitcoin was still hovering around 77000.
Including in my June 1st post (written on May 31st), I also stressed that from June 1st to June 7th, we would kick off the main downtrend.

You could say anyone who listened to me should have made some gains (including myself).

I’m not posting this to pat myself on the back; if I wanted to do that, I’d be day trading every day and telling you all how I made 800 points on longs today and 1000 points on shorts yesterday, pocketing your commissions.
But something not-so-pleasant happened in the chat today, and I won’t get into details. I just want to say that I acknowledge both right and wrong; since joining bn, I’ve written three self-reflective notes. But the reality is, overall, I’ve made the right calls more often, which is why I’m profitable in real trading. If you have your own ideas, don’t blame your wrong trades on others, thanks.

If we absolutely have to buy, what should we get?
Summary:
1. Why is the US stock market at its peak right now?
2. The predictability of global inflation.
3. Wealth-making opportunities with sugar and rubber.
4. If you must buy US stocks, focus on defensive sectors first.
5. Is the main downtrend starting next week? $BTC ?
6. Strategies for the World Cup.

(I saw someone asking in the comments before. Don’t rush for the altcoin spot list, I’ll drop it soon. I’m currently on a road trip with my partner, so time is tight. Many coins might have already missed the good entry points.)

Monthly Crypto Market Review (05.18)
Summary:
1. What does the surge in long-term U.S. Treasury rates mean?
2. U.S. stocks are soaring, inflation is skyrocketing, and Treasury yields are at new highs; one of these must be wrong.
3. Detailed analysis of U.S. stocks.
4. The leading trend of XLF.
5. Bitcoin's sustained strength is due to the bullish U.S. stock market.
6. Bitcoin's options during U.S. stock pullbacks.

Trading Strategy:
1. Holding short position for $BTC , take profit at 58000;
2. Holding short position for $ETH , take profit at 1610;
3. Holding short position for $SOL , take profit at 55.5;
4. On the short term, there’s a clear long opportunity for Bitcoin in the 74500-75000 range; to maintain an uptrend, the 74000 level cannot be breached on a daily candlestick. The current short-term pressure is around 79300, and this resistance will likely decrease over time.
5. For the day, 76300 is a high-probability support level.

In the U.S. stock market, I've built three layers of shorts (NASDAQ 24500, 25000, 26000). For every 1000-point increase in the NASDAQ, I plan to add another layer of shorts. The current holding period for these shorts is about 12-13 months. Many are anticipating the NASDAQ to break above 30000; if it does, a significant drop is highly probable afterward. However, there is also a chance that around 26500 could be a top for NASDAQ, considering the short-term outlook for a pullback. Historically, after the change of Fed chairs, the stock market tends to see double-digit declines within six months. This implies that the NASDAQ should pull back below 24000 before the year ends. From a cyclical perspective, the strength of the U.S. stock market is unlikely to persist until 2027.

I've maintained my gold position for a long time; historically (whether in 2011, 1996, or 1980), each peak in gold has lasted over six months. This means if gold is set to experience a significant drop, we’ll likely have to wait until at least August, as prior to that, it will be in a high-range consolidation phase. I’ve made several trades in gold; if we see a clear drop before August, theoretically, I could still capture 1-2 more long trades; however, if my long orders don’t get filled before then, I’ll have to cancel the pending orders. The holding period for my shorts has been around 2.5 years, and it appears I’ll need to hold for another 26 months.

In the cryptocurrency space, the probability of a small altcoin season is significantly higher in July-August. If Bitcoin indeed experiences a major drop in May-June, accumulating altcoins is essential.

I took a look, and in the comments section with over 300 people, not a single person noticed that this picture is edited, which shows that there are really very few people doing trend trades in the square.

If he really used 800u to open a position, after the price of the coin multiplied by 30, his margin would become 24000u, and the liquidation price would also change (even if he has no other positions, the liquidation price is dynamic, because there are also fees, not to mention he has other positions). But if you look at his past posts, you will find that when the price of $RAVE was over 2 and over 8, his liquidation price was exactly the same to four decimal places.

To put it bluntly, he doesn't even bother to deceive!

He also said he would draw 20 people to give each 100u, which definitely requires editing the picture again. Don't you believe it? @东链大超哥 If anyone dares to post their trading card in the post (not asking for public real trading, just posting the trading card in the post). I will publicly apologize and transfer him 100u.
