Most people fail at trading because they don’t want to confront themselves.
What do I mean?
When you’re in a trade, your mind has to make countless decisions:
• What do I do when the market turns?
• How do I move my SL as price goes up and down?
• How do I book profits?
• What if the market touches my SL before going up?
• Should I lower my SL even further in case price touches it?
• Should I cut my profits short, or will the market take them away if I don't?
At every moment, your mind runs through all these scenarios and more.
But instead of acknowledging them, you make some random decision, forget it, and move on.
Next trade, same thing. Random decisions, and you move on again.
You keep making the same mistakes and never fix them.
So, how do you fix this?
You have two choices:
1. Take an entry, set your SL and TP and leave the screen or
2. Write down what you would do if these scenarios come up
Understand this: you can’t reach profitability if you aren’t sure about your actions.

$NVDA Probably the most important chart in the stock market right now...
The MOAT line cannot be anymore precise and clear.
Bulls, bounce it or else.

The global markets were all red this week.
Hopefully we'll see green next week.

Central banks are "quietly" stacking gold, per Fortune. Goldman Sachs estimates they bought 79 tonnes in August, more than four times the pre-2022 average of 17 a month.
$GS calls that buying a "structural support" for gold. The Dutch central bank moved 86 tonnes from New York and Ottawa to London.
The support holds only while buying stays well above 17 tonnes.

$META is doing almost the same thing $GOOGL did in 2014. Google gave shareholders a non voting Class C share for each share they owned so Page and Brin could keep control while Google kept issuing stock.
The Class C shares traded lower than the voting ones and Google ended up paying $522 million to make up for it.
The big difference is Meta wants to use these shares to help raise the hundreds of billions they say they need for AI. Google mostly used theirs to pay employees and buy companies.
And it is also for Zuckerberg. If California passes its billionaire tax next month he can sell some of his new shares to pay it without giving up votes.
$META is creating a new kind of share with no voting rights. Every shareholder will get one for each share they own. It’s a stock dividend but it works like a 2 for 1 stock split.
Zuckerberg holds most of the voting power. Since the new shares don’t come with votes Meta can sell them to pay for AI and he keeps control.
Zuckerberg will get the new shares as well. He can sell 20% of them without losing voting power. With the other 80% he gives up some voting power for every one he sells.
That rule goes away over 8 years if he stays full time on Meta’s executive team or as executive chair.

China’s CSI 300 has fallen about 20% from its June high and entered bear market territory.
The drop comes as AI trades unwind and hopes for major stimulus fade.
A 10-week losing streak and weak earnings have added pressure.
Whether the slide continues depends on clearer policy support or better results.

Another reason I'm still bullish on $SPCX
NFA.
Grok Bot's daily users hit a new peak on October 17, roughly tripling since late September, per Similarweb's estimates.
That's just usage though, not revenue yet. But each new user costs little to add to software that's already running.
If that curve flattens and paid users never show up, I'd rethink it.
