Sunday morning — and we've got red on the board from overnight. PEPE and SHIB both stopped out of their range shorts, taking the expected hit when the tape didn't cooperate. That's the shape of these trades: win most, still lose money when you lose.

Morning — today's a quiet one. Five trades closed, all in the green; the book ended yesterday with a stack, and today that stack mostly resolved. Sellers owned yesterday harder than they have in weeks, but the shorts liked it. The five closes: AAVE ran to its +10.23%

Morning, everyone — it's been a quiet, layered kind of day. APT closed quick (a range short that hit its +3.28% target in just over 13 hours), and five fresh shorts landed overnight and this morning, all on the same theme: coins stuck sideways. The book now has

Morning — Thursday brought us three clean exits and a reminder that the best trades are the short, decisive ones. The day closed out three positions: PEPE's bounce short hit its +10.23% target in 69 hours — the clearest win we've had this week. PENDLE's

Morning — yesterday was the kind of day where the desk closed five trades, four of them green, but the story is really about what just opened. Four winners closed out yesterday: JTO, NEAR, PENDLE, and WLD all hit their +3% targets in the range-short playbook, which is the bread-

Morning — Monday brought the bill for Friday's patience. A −8.04% stop on LDO short (held 50 hours) wiped out most of what the week had built, and the dip buys that were supposed to be easy money — WLD in particular — decided to stay broken. Five SHIB trades

Morning — Sunday brought WLD back into the light, and the day was a study in how tight your time windows really are. Yesterday's five dip-buys on WLD all fired within 24 hours of each other. The playbook says +3% to +8% depending on dip depth, no stop,

Morning, everyone — Saturday brought a clean sweep. Three shorts hit their targets, and the book cycled open six new positions (five of them stacked on one coin), which tells its own story about what the tape is doing right now. ARB's bounce short finally resolved after 326 hours

Friday morning, everyone — it's been a quiet, downward-leaning week, and today the selling picked up steam. Nothing violent; just persistent. Ethereum got hit harder than bitcoin yesterday, with sellers pressing most of the day. The book has four open positions now and zero closed anything, which means

Morning, everyone — today was the cleanup after yesterday's wreck. One more stop, two positions that fired on coins we're already short, and a market that's still deciding which way the next move goes. AAVE took its −8.15% stop this morning after 78 hours.

Morning — we're flat again this morning after yesterday's three stops hit in quick succession. Not a great day, but the kind that teaches you something about how this works. Yesterday closed PENDLE, AAVE, and another PENDLE — all range shorts that ran into their −8% stops within
