There has been no lack of fundamental plays recently, all of the top performers: $AERO $WLD $SKY $ZRO. While memes can be profitable, the focus going forward into October will be on these sorts of fundamental plays over anything else. @Gold_Cryptoz has been doing some digging into what could be interesting for October, all posted to Emporia discord members, join today:

Aside from majors these are my key holds going into October I don't think there could be many more tailwinds right now for the market. It's more about doing nothing here and holding your existing positions over trying to day trade

You've made it through 10/10, an Iran war, the highest bond prices in 20+ years, the beginning of a potential rate hike cycle and rejection of the clarity BTC act. ... And all for Bitcoin to close its first bullish engulfing candle in its history as we enter what is historically the most bullish quarter of the year. It's time to dream bigger.

Now that September is coming to an end it's time to give a trading update. I am still in a few trades with quite decent uPnL at this point but will obviously only share realised profits. For the month of September I have ended the month +$210k realised on Binance which makes September my 5th profitable month in a row. Right now what I care most about is consistency. As you can see from the monthly PnL, I made $482k but minus the losses of $271k it ended with $210k. I'm not happy with that part, there were plenty of unnecessary trades taken that added to those losses. The one major thing I need to learn is how to minimise these losses. It comes down to overtrading and eliminating pointless trades. What is consistent for me is that 90% of profits come from 10% of trades and this month was no different. My goal for next month is to really try to minimise these unnecessary losses to bring this down and come away with more. This can be fixed by minimizing overtrading... How does that look? Stop looking for trades that aren't there or entering low conviction bets. I'm looking forward for many more of you to join us in @Emporia_Capital for October. Gold

Another successful month for Emporia members. September saw some bangers, $ZAMA and $USELESS were some awesome stand out trades. Perfectly timed and executed, great calls by @Gold_Cryptoz. Time to get ready to destroy the new month ahead. The market is hot right now, there are plays left and right despite BTC mostly doing nothing these last few weeks overall and sticking to this range. If you want to catch more trades like these, come and join our discord community today!

This is the most rewarding part about starting @Emporia_Capital; Seeing others succeed like this. You can also be a part here: A $260k month for @YourSIRibp and first 6 figure profit month in 3 years. And the most important part is that he took out $160k to the bank - I hammer this home all the time and how it’s the most undervalued part of trading. The others mentioned in this post: @iamjtxvi @Dentoshi @0xAngelo

I like RH majors going into RobinHood Conference in 2 days time. It is a very short runway, and the first Robinhood Conference since RH chain launched. Vlad is presenting a keynote with the description listed as: Vlad and “his crew” unveil “the newest cutting-edge updates for our active traders.” I think all eyes on this keynote on the 29th of September. Some announcements and updates regarding global access to tokenized assets and dividend plans are also expected. I took cash-cat:native on perps since I think its the most 'recognisable' token on RH chain right now.

21/ 4th withdrawal for the month of September. Another $50k withdrawal. This brings my monthly total up to $200k withdrawn to the bank. Never forget to pay yourself, you'll never regret it. You won't remember the trades you missed, you'll remember the amount you kept at the end of the month. Let's absolutely nail October. I think this cycle is going to get really crazy. Going into the bull market one of the most important things is to be surrounded by other likeminded traders. @Emporia_Capital has been built to foster this. You can join us in the Discord:

People forget what can happen in an ETH and alt led bull market - when the ingredients converge all at once. 2017 was the greatest bull market of all time; stuff of legend. In 2017 XRP went from $.001 to $3.5 in 9 months. I think we are going to witness these kind of rallies again; higher for longer. Bullieve.

$BCH just got CME futures which by itself isn’t necessarily a big deal But I think many have forgotten that BCH have already made real progress towards privacy (and quantum) As of September: - A native zk-SNARK shielded-pool style application was announced as live around 1 August - Mid-August: first linked 2-input post-quantum confidential spend verified on Chipnet. Amounts and input linkage stay hidden; verification stays on-chain - Mid-September: 0zkBrewer showed a full private payment path on Chipnet (post-quantum + stealth transfers) that hides sender, recipient, and amount while remaining verifiable by nodes in milliseconds

I never believed in @theunipcs thesis on $USELESS … until this cycle I actually think it will hit $1b+ and beyond, unipcs is cementing himself as the ‘main character’ of this cycle. When retail returns and sees him at the top on fomo, USELESS will be one of the first coins they buy

I haven’t taken a trade in 2 weeks, the longest time without actioning anything in 5 years. Truly feel like a changed man. I feel as though I’m missing out on nothing right now by staying flat here. I hope you guys are enjoying your summertime and avoiding unnecessary losses of PnL and brain cells

I think you do nothing and outperform here. There’s a solid case for time base capitulation yet to unfold. Unless you have a really good reason to click buttons - then don’t at all. Boredom will cause a lot of unnecessary losses. Occupy your time with other things. Focus on sharpening your trading psychology.

One major thing I’ve learnt during 2018-2020 is that DCAing alts with the idea of trying to hold through to the bull market is a fools errand. So many things can go wrong. Simply wait for an obvious HTF trend change on BTC and then bid. 1. Most of last cycles tokens won’t enjoy much of the upside during the next cycle 2. DCAing blindly is just burning money and can be a serious opportunity cost

Nothing is too interesting to me here in the market. I'm currently in Europe for the entire summer, and honestly it's helped my trading ALOT. My trading frequency has gone way down - I've still been checking into the market but just watching mostly. The last month I've taken mostly very short term trades (day trading). Up until a month ago I was still trying to go for bigger wins. For me these bigger wins are mid 5 figs+, and it just got to a point where I would roundtrip these amounts many time throughout the month. It was just super frustrating. Since then I had decided to switch it up and barely even hold anything overnight. It's helped my trading psychology ALOT and also put me into a good rhythm I didn't have before. People forget - myself included - that these small wins and losses really add up... whatever that small figure is for you (insert here). For me it's 4 figs... I would treat that a pretty much breakeven. But when you think about it, if you make these small amount even a few times a week before you realise you're up mid 5 figs+ by end of month. This also has an inverse effect, you take 'small losses' (paper cuts) that can really add up. Then you look back on the month and think 'wtf I'm down mid 5 figs how did this happen'. To put this into perspective I am up roughly $150k the last 30 days purely from taking these 'small trades'. Not bad. Anyway, this is probably the longest time I've gone without tweeting. But it's just the current market environment. There's just really not alot to say. We got the move up, we got the rotation to onchain and now we're seeing rotation from RH to other chains. This usually marks close to the end of the trend. Stay sharp and chat soon.
