I know investing in Bitcoin can be difficult when you feel like you have to react to every little market move. I found that learning patience and understanding when not to trade really helped me. Jackson Mapko’s analysis really helped me see things more clearly. I learned a lot about risk, timing, and staying calm. It was so nice to be able to focus on logic instead of emotions.✊
I’ve actually heard about him, but no one ever shares his details. Please can you share.. is it that exclusive or what?
He’s mostly on Telegram… ;( ⤵⤵⤵
@MapkoJPro✊ ✌ 💬
That’s the user name he uses. 🤝
I’ll definitely have a look and see how it works
GEO! thinking of Sylvester Stallone’s iconic prison break franchise is Escape Plan;) love you guys, just an impulsive thoughts!
Thank you, Ali and Ed. Greatly appreciated
I have $600K ready to invest, but I want to be careful about how I allocate it.
I’d start by deciding what you want the money to achieve and how long you can leave it invested.
Don’t overlook diversification and emergency reserves. Your plan should match both your goals and risk tolerance.
I’m not very experienced with this. Would getting professional guidance be worthwhile?
It could be. I’ve heard the name Mei Lowery mentioned for retirement planning, but I’d independently check her credentials, fees, and services.
Every major market crash has the same fingerprints, and we’re seeing them again, record high margin debt, stretched valuations, rising long term yields, and an AI sector hitting profitability concerns just as liquidity tightens. Oil hovering near crisis levels and investors carrying more leverage than cash is exactly the setup that historically cracks the market. These signals don’t guarantee a crash.. but they always show up before one. Staying disciplined while everyone else ignores the warnings has been the difference maker for me.Despite the volatility, I’ve managed to grow a nest egg of around 110k to a decent 780k in the space of a few months.Thanks again, Michele Braid, for the traditional trading acumen that makes this possible!
Absolutely.. I’ve been watching the same signals in my own trading. When margin debt spikes and yields climb, discipline becomes the only real edge. Staying structured is exactly what’s helped me keep my portfolio growing through all this volatility.
Pls Where can I find this your particular mentor, Michele Braid?
SHES MOSTLY ON TE LEGRAM
@Michelebraid that’s the Handle,……verified!
Facts. these conditions show up before every major market break. The traders who stay focused instead of panicking are the ones who come out ahead. Your results prove how powerful disciplined execution can be in a shaky macro environment.
Amazing content as always, my friend. Loved every minute of it. Keep up the great work! 👏
I’d saved roughly $320,000, but most of it was sitting in a savings account earning very little. I started wondering if there was a smarter way to prepare for my future.
@PamelaThomas-g7d I can relate to that. What made you look for another option?
Great video as always, and I’m especially glad there’s an Italian translation.
vFor the Newbie if you are actually trading in the crypto space and you don’t have a sound mentor. Then you are certainly going to get liquidated in 90% of your trades. Yeah that’s sad truth. I remember when i just got into crypto back in 2019 but later in 2020 i ended up selling it because i have lost alot trading all by myself without a guide. Got back into crypto early in 2024 with $20k and I’m up with $232k in a short period of time…Thanks once again, Amelia Vertolomo. for your consistent updates and continued support
I appreciate the lead, just googled her name and checked her credentials, She seems well educated I’ve reached out because I need someone who actually understands the fundamentals
Crypto education is what the world needs the most right now. I don’t think that buy and hold is a valid investment strategy anymore
Honestly, I used to think holding was the best move in crypto, but I’ve learned that active trading gives you way more control. The good thing about trading is you’re not just stuck waiting for the market to go up you can actually take advantage of both up and down trends. Whether the market is rising or falling, there’s always an opportunity to make smart moves. That level of control is what really changed things for me and helped me grow my portfolio more consistently instead of just hoping for profits.
Considering that the market has gone berserk! whether you’re a newbie or a veteran trader, We will need a sort of coach at some point to thrive forward.
I agree with you that is why having a mentor who truly understands the market cycle makes all the difference for beginners starting in crypto.
