260627| Rising Eagles on Knowing Bros Ep. 535 13 years since debut and CHANYEOL looks exactly the same, everyone is amazed by his timeless visuals 🥹🫳🏼 👩🏻: But honestly, when you compare Chanyeol's debut days to how he looks right now, his visuals haven't really changed at all, have they? 🍒: Right. Actually, a comparison photo of me from my debut days and now has been going viral online because people say I look exactly the same 🕵🏻: I brought that photo with me 👩🏻: Wow! Whoa. They look exactly the same 🍒: The one on the right is from recently, and the left one is from back then 🍒:That was 13 years ago. 🧑🏻: Honestly, there is basically zero difference between 13 years ago and now. 🍒: People think that I've just managed to maintain my looks effortlessly. But that's not it! I actually went away for a bit and came back😆🫳🏼 🧑🏻: Then what is your maintenance [secret]? 🍒: For maintenance, of course, there's losing weight and working out consistently is part of it...

#SoulShackRadio EXCLUSIVE. Two of Zimbabwe’s radio and broadcasting legends, James JCJ Makamba aka The Tall Groover and John The Boss Matinde together in Harare. Seeing these two in the same space after more than 40 years, planning a joint show on Classic263 this Saturday, is massive news for old-skoolers like me. James Makamba, along with other radio giants of the 70s and early 80s like Ephraim Chamba, Ishmael Kadungure, Hilton “Dr Bobo’’ Mambo, Wellington Mbofana, Mike “Big Sam’’ Mhundwa, Webster Shamhu, Ray Chirisa, Roy Brassington, Sally Donaldson, Jill Baker, Lawford Sutton-Pryce , Mike Westcott, Martin Locke, Forbes Kahari, Patrick “Uncle George’’ Bajila and many others, shaped Zimbabwean radio during its golden era. Personally, James Makamba is the reason I ever thought of getting into radio presenting. I followed his programmes religiously as a youngster. I even wrote into one of his Coca-Cola–sponsored shows where listeners could win a chance to meet him and record greetings in the studio. I still remember going up to Robinson House on the 9th floor, at APL, the production house that recorded the programme. That building sits right by QV Pharmacy, the legendary corner of Union Avenue and Angwa Street. Back in the late 70s, that spot was the meeting point. No mobile phones then so dates were arranged on the landline at home and you just hoped your person showed up. QV was the landmark we used when we linked up with our chicks. I will never forget sitting across from my hero, the legend JCJ. If only I’d had a camera that day, that photo would’ve been priceless. John Matinde won my ears later when he became one of the pioneering DJs on Radio 3, after its transition from Radio Jacaranda. If memory serves me right, John had also worked at APL where JCJ was oresenting programmes for men's fashion outfitters Barons, Topman and Modique and when he moved to Radio 3 he took Ishmael Kadungure, Wellington Mbofana and Mike Mhundwa with him. Anyway, I got carried away. The breaking news is simple. These two giants are reuniting on air on John’s show Sounds On Saturday this Saturday, 29 November 2025 at 12:02pm CAT on Classic263. This time they’ll be broadcasting live as in together , not virtually from a Harare studio, made possible by Tony “Chief Capone’’ Chihota of A Piece of Ebony, one of the pioneering Zim hip hop groups that once featured a young Chiwoniso Maraire. I look forward to that, don’t miss it. And while I have your attention, don’t forget to tune into my show, the #PyjamaParty, 9am–10am on the same station. (Shameless plug, I know.) 😆😆😆

Thank you so much, INROCK INROCK編集部 ! 🥹💙 You made my dream come true by giving me the chance to receive SB19 Josh’s autograph. The autograph is so cute, and I am beyond grateful to have been chosen for this special gift. I also want to share something amazing that happened today. I wasn’t feeling well for few days, so I took an afternoon nap. For the first time ever, Josh appeared in my dream. Not all the SB19 members like I used to dream about before, but just Josh. 🥹✨ In my dream, it wasn’t SB19 Josh. It was the young Josh during his aspiring days. He was part of a dance group, and somehow, I was a member too. 😆 We were dancing together, and I couldn’t recognize the other members’ faces. The funny part was that the face I had in the dream wasn’t even mine. It was a young girl I didn’t know, yet somehow I felt it was me in that body. 😂 Mind you, I can’t dance at all in real life. 😆 When I woke up, I felt so happy and strangely close to Josh. Then I checked my mailbox and found an unexpected envelope addressed to me. My heart started racing when I saw where it came from. 🥹💙 Inside was Josh’s autograph!😭♥️🙏 Imagine that. I dreamed of Josh for the very first time, then woke up to receive his autograph on the very same day. Some moments feel too special to be just a coincidence. Today is one of those days. ✨💙 Music: SEE ME by Josh Cullen 🔗 #SB19 #SB19_JOSH JOSH CULLEN #INROCK

If you had to choose 1 person to be your roommate~ 🌼: I actually want to try living with P'Joss for, like, a month. I'd want him to drag me to work out and take me to do all the intense activities he does. I just really want to know exactly how exhausting it would be 😂 🪐: You know, I actually wanted to live with P'Joss too. That was my first thought. I just feel like his lifestyle is completely the opposite of mine, so I'm really curious about what it would be like if we actually lived under the same roof 😆 🐻: I think my pick would be Mix. When we went to Nakhon Nayok together, we actually got the chance to share our life goals and talk about a lot of things. 🐻: We had a really deep talk. We got into future plans, how he grew up to have the mindset he has... things like that 😊 🪐: Thanks P’ but that last sentence was a bit weird 😂 🐧: I guess I could try... try living with Mix? Like, I could try living with him... it's fine 🥺 🪐: Oii P’ it sounds really “forced” na 😂 🐻: 😂😅 🐧: No, but really, I feel like it would be fun! 🐧: Like I said, we actually have a lot of similarities. Sometimes when we go on trips, we have the exact same energy. We just understand each other really easily ☺️ ~I mean yeah… Gawin suddenly sounded a little 'underwhelmed' right after Joss picked Mix to be his roommate 😂🥺 But honestly, it’s normal like when you’re that close to someone (and together a lot), you naturally crave that exclusivity sometimes (speaking as a fellow Leo :))) It’s all good though, Gawin would definitely have a lot of fun being roommates with Mix fs 😆🤲🏻 #PraewAndYouXOnlyFriendsDreamOn #JossGawin

If you know #Python you can now build Apps on a blockchain. #Algorand is a permissionless operating system, anyone can build on it. Transaction fees are low meaning it's not expensive to use. Algorand has never had any downtime so it's reliable and is one of the rare blockchains with instant finality. Over 10 million Python developers are now able to use what they've learn't through writing in the Python coding language and apply it to a blockchain for the first time. It's going to be interesting to see what people start building, we're building a low poly virtual world 🌐 Developers no longer have to learn complicated and relatively unknown languages like #Solidity or #PyTeal to be able to build #Decentralised applications. In under 10 minutes, you can start building on a blockchain. If you'd like to get started or learn more then check out this link and follow the Algorand Developers. The barrier to entry for blockchain development has now significantly been lowered. Algorand may start to out develop blockchains like #Ethereum and #Solana, partly because of the access to a developer pool 300 times bigger than the Solidity developer pool. But also because Algorand doesn't crash, have failed transactions or cost much to use. 😆 😌 🤔 ✨To help us spread the message and have a chance to win a share of 1m $NIKO ($900) then please like, retweet, follow rxelms and tag 3 friends in the comments using the emoji 🐍 10 winners will be selected in 48 hours, to be eligible you must have over 50 followers.

My honest review- Gainsville Florida, FU swamp stadium Morgan Wallen concert 5-15-26 Morgan himself is an amazing performer, nonstop energy, and he sounds really good( from what i could tell). The pyrotechnics, the fireworks, the light up wristbands that we were given that go in sync to the music was phenomenal. Walking out with Tim Tebow was also top-notch! The venue in itself was quite poor to be honest with you. I paid an absorbent amount of money on Ticketmaster to sit the 2nd row off the field, and we could barely see the stage. We were only really able to see most of it from watching the Screens. When I booked the tickets, the view that was given was not the view that we were actually seeing. The stupid floor signs obstructed our view too. Quite disappointing, considering the very expensive price tag. Having to sit on bleachers for five hours like high school kids is diabolical. So uncomfortable, especially when the drunk people behind you kept spilling their drinks on you. I almost went to prison lol 😆 Secondly, the sound was extremely muffled. Anytime they were speaking and actually saying things, it was very hard to understand what they were saying. Different when he was singing because we knew the words and could understand what was being said. If you walked halfway up the stadium. The sound was much better. So I don’t know if being on the ground is always like that but quite disappointing for the price tag. I’ve seen other reviews with the same issue. The filming booths definitely blocked good views for us too. The parking situation and trying to exit the stadium was fucking insane. Gridlock traffic for 2+ hours. That town is not equipped for people to come in like that. I’m assuming during football games it’s mostly students who already lived there and don’t have to drive, but oh my God what a nightmare. All in all, Morgan was fantastic and I would definitely see him again, he is top-notch. 5 ⭐️ The venue in itself two out of five stars. ⭐️ would not repeat an event there.

[trans] #HallsXSxWinmetawin (5) 🎤: Today you worked with Zee and Nunew, how was it? 🐰: This is probably the first time I've had the chance to work with P’Zee and Nunew. Usually, our paths just cross, and we haven’t been on stage together like this. It’s lovely and I’m happy. Especially with P’Zee, we’re already close; we go out for meals, but we’ve never worked together before. This is our first time. 😊 🎤: Many people were teasing that it's like the two main pillars from two different agencies meeting. 🐰: No not like that 😄 Personally, I'm already close to P’Zee. When we're free, we always message each other asking if we want to grab a meal. When we go abroad at the same time, we'll check if the other person is free to meet up.😊 🎤: But earlier there was a moment where you were feeding each other. 🐰: I was lonely because I came alone, so I had to ask Nunew for permission to have that moment. 🥹 🎤: But Nunew's eyes looked like he was keeping a close watch! 🐰: He was watching like, "It’s gonna get…you know?" 😂😆 🎤: So normally you and Zee are close outside of work? 🐰: Yes, we're already close and often have meals together. 🎤: And with Nunew? 🐰: This is the first time! This is the first time I've met Nong Nunew and worked together. And it's the first time we've really talked. 😊 🎤: But it looked like you took good care of him well! 😅 🐰: Nong is nice, very nice 😊 WIN HALLS XS SINGHA LEMON #winmetawin #ZeeNunew

[MENT] 21st KKBOX Music Awards #donghae #동해 🐯: I’m very grateful and happy to have been invited to the 21st KKBOX on my own and to have this opportunity to share my songs with all of you. Seven years ago, Super Junior performed on the KKBOX stage, and last year D&E and LSS appeared together at KKBOX. But meeting all of you here by myself today makes my heart race. I’m excited and nervous at the same time, and I think this is a very meaningful and precious moment for me. Is everyone having a good time? 💙: Yes~~ 🐯: I’m having a great time too. 🐯: I still have one more song left. 💙: *Sigh* 🐯: This isn’t my concert. It’s not like there’s going to be an encore just because I want to sing more songs, and even if you’d like to hear more of my songs, there isn’t enough time. Yes, everyone, this is not my concert. 😆 🐯: Back in the waiting room, I listened to the performances and songs of many of the artists appearing here today. They were all so good. I also hope to have opportunities to interact with other artists, and if the chance comes, I’d love to collaborate with them as well. And while watching so many artists today, I feel like I’ve learned a lot. 🐯: Lastly, to all the fans who came here today, and to our ELFs, Annie, and Protein who came to support me, thank you. 🐯: And if the opportunity comes again, I would be honored to return to KKBOX every year, perhaps together with the members. Even when that time comes, you’ll come and support us, right? 💙: Yes~~~ 🐯: Promise! 💙: Promise!

🚨 🎙️ NEW PODCAST 🚨🚨 BRAIN WARS: Prof. James Giordano on Neuroweapons, Neurotechnology, & Global Security Prof. James Giordano is a rockstar in neuroscience, neurotechnology, and biosecurity. For years, I’ve been following his work—including his notorious military talks 😱 (iykyk)—and was determined to land this interview. As Professor Emeritus in the Departments of Neurology and Biochemistry at Georgetown University and Director of the Center for Disruptive Technology and Future Warfare of the Institute for National Strategic Studies at the National Defense University, he’s a leading expert on unraveling mysteries like Havana Syndrome—the bizarre illness that targeted & disabled U.S. diplomats and intelligence officers, and now, civilians. But this conversation goes far beyond that, delving into wild stuff that’s sounds like sci-fi but is actually happening. Now. Think directed energy weapons zapping brains, nanotechnology that can be injected or inhaled to “access the brain remotely,” 😬 microbes that alter thoughts and behavior 🦠 , and the human brain 🧠 as the new frontier in global conflicts. This isn’t your typical science talk. 😆 We dive into deeply hidden & unsettling—but important— territory: 🔹 Can nanotechnology be used to access the brain without surgery? 🔹 The truth behind Havana Syndrome and who may be using directed energy weapons to attack public officials and civilians. 🔹 How ultrasonic and microwave weapons can silently incapacitate targets. 🔹 Are claims of covert chip implants, drone invasions, and directed energy weapons real? [hint: yes] 🔹 Can nanoparticles cause untraceable deaths? 🔹 Can microbes be engineered to change human thoughts and behavior? 🔹 What are the dual-use dangers of precision medicine, synthetic biology, and gene editing? Dr. Giordano brings clarity, insight, & 4+ decades of scientific and biodefense knowledge. His message is urgent: the same biomedical tools that promise healing can also be used for harm. This conversation made my head explode (while, once again, trying to look composed!) —and he’s agreed to come back for a part two. If this episode sparks questions, leave them in the comments. We’ll bring them to Prof. Giordano next time. 🎧 The Dana Parish Podcast is avail on all podcast platforms, YT, and Substack. 🚨 PLEASE SUBSCRIBE 🚨 Special thanks to my incredible editor, Conrad deVroeg. 📺 Please SUPPORT MY HARD WORK by commenting, sharing, and subscribing for more conversations that go where others won’t. TYSM for watching! 🩷

Michael Saylor spent 2025 telling people to sell a kidney before selling Bitcoin. Then he literally dumped $323 million of it since May. He just went on Diary of a CEO and exposed himself as a hypocrite in his own words: His company holds 842,138 Bitcoin. That is roughly 4% of every coin that will ever exist, which makes it the largest corporate holder on Earth. In February 2025 he posted "Sell a kidney if you must, but keep the Bitcoin." Weeks earlier he had written that selling weakens the network. But here is what his own filings show since May: - 32 Bitcoin sold between May 26 and May 31 for $2.5 million - 3,588 Bitcoin sold between June 29 and July 5 for $216 million, the largest disposal in company history - 1,638 Bitcoin sold between July 27 and August 2 for $104.73 million That last batch went out at an average of $63,957 a coin. His average purchase price is around $75,400. He sold at a LOSS. New Bitcoin purchases are currently paused. So why is the loudest Bitcoin bull alive selling coins for less than he paid? The answer is a bill he built himself, and he walked through the whole thing on that podcast without once connecting it to the selling. He went to ChatGPT and asked it to design a security nobody had ever built, a preferred stock where he could change the dividend rate every month. He says the lawyers and bankers told him it had never been done before. He brought it to market as a $2.5 billion IPO, then sold another $8 billion off a shelf registration. His own framing of that: Selling $15 billion of credit "kind of equates to the company making about $15 billion." Selling credit is borrowing. Every dollar came attached to a dividend he now has to pay in cash, forever, whether Bitcoin goes up or not. Strategy owes over $1.7 billion a year across five preferred instruments and its debt. The software business does not come close to covering that. So the Bitcoin covers it. The break-even is 3.2%. So if Bitcoin appreciates 3.2% a year, they can pay those dividends indefinitely by selling Bitcoin to do it. He called the sale a one-time demonstration to break a short seller narrative and said selling is not the primary strategy. His own CEO Phong Le told the Q2 earnings call that Strategy will sell whenever management finds it advantageous, and that investors should expect more going forward. Now look at who ends up holding the bag: That preferred stock is majority owned by retail investors, and it dropped to $89 against a $100 par value in June. Retail Bitcoin holders get told to hold through anything while retail preferred holders get paid a yield funded by selling that same Bitcoin at a loss. He opened that same episode explaining that Bitcoin lets you own something nobody more powerful can take away from you. In 2024 he paid $40 million to settle what the DC Attorney General called the LARGEST income tax fraud recovery in the city's history. The complaint said he claimed residency in Florida while his own security logs placed him in Washington for 1,397 days against 449 in Florida. He settled without admitting wrongdoing and still disputes living there. In 2000 he settled SEC accounting fraud charges after his company reported profits during years it was actually losing money. He disgorged $8.28 million and admitted nothing. Strategy lost $12.54 billion in the first quarter and another $8.22 billion in the second. And this week he sat there and told a 25 year old with a few hundred dollars to buy Bitcoin and hold it for a decade. But he is not doing that himself. His company just SOLD $105 million of it. What do you think of Saylor?

Young K's ment is making me teary-eyed because it's filled with so much LOVE for the DAY6 members so let me share a part.... 🦊: "But even while we're doing everything, us messing around with each other - that never changes. In a way, that's our core. DAY6's core. Is it the love for music? Nope. It's the constant teasing, poking fun, and trying to make each other laugh as much as possible. We've been doing that since trainee days and it hasn't changed at all. I still remember… You all know this but when I fall asleep even for a second, they just leave me. They don't even watch my expression when I wake up. Normally, you'd be curious to see the look on someone's face when they wake up [and suddenly they're alone], right? Not them. They just go. And they leave imagining my panicked expression. I have no idea where they went. Even if I take my doze off for just 1 second, the car's gone 😆 There have been so many moments like that, and I think we'll continue living like this. I'm sure that's one thing that will never change. You know being with these people makes me realize that the concert name is really fitting. It really feels like it's Forever Young. And I hope it's the same with everyone. In life, there are times when we have to grow up, do things we don't want to, and hear things we don't want to hear. There will be moments when we feel tired and drained. But even with all that, remember when we were young? When just going down a slide felt really fun? When swinging on a swing felt amazing? When just looking at the sky made us go "Wow it's so pretty." That innocence... finding happiness in the smallest things. I hope we never lose that. Even if we don't hold onto it perfectly, we can at least try to remember it and make a little effort to laugh more and feel happier. ... If you ever feel down, maybe just sneak in a bit of [DAY6's] music. You don’t even have to go through the trouble of putting your hood up anymore. Just lift your palm a little and press play on it. It might make you feel a little better and I hope it brings some comfort to your everyday life. And while you search for those little moments of happiness, I hope we can all share even bigger happiness on days like today. Let's be happy, everyone."

In his famous speech from the film “Braveheart” (1995), William Wallace delivers a passage that has given many pause for reflection: “They’ll fight and you may die. Run and you’ll live… at least a while. And dying in your beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance – just one chance – to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they’ll never take our FREEDOM?” We see clearly that the battlefield of that moment was not merely one of swords, but of ideas: on one side, the oppressive weight of fear sown by King Edward Longshanks; on the other, an awakening to the primal value of death – that divine gift of freedom bestowed upon mankind. The Nature of the Scottish Soldiers’ Fear: The Product of Longshanks’ Manipulation: Before Wallace spoke, thousands of Scottish warriors stood trembling before the English host. They wished to flee. Their fear was visceral, yet it was not purely a biological instinct; rather, it was the harvest of a prolonged campaign of spiritual terror orchestrated by Edward Longshanks. Longshanks had succeeded in redefining death within the Scottish mind. No longer a natural end, he had transformed it into an instrument of brutal execution – a harrowing punishment reserved for those who dared defy him (as seen in his hanging of nobles or the slitting of Wallace’s wife’s throat). English tyranny had convinced the people that death at the hands of the tyrant was utter hopelessness, and that the only path to survival lay in accepting humiliation. It was precisely this dread of losing their lives that had already reduced them to spiritual slaves long before the battle commenced. Wallace’s Awakening: Exposing the Lie of a Timid Existence: Wallace rode back and forth before the wavering faces of those ready to retreat. His question struck directly at the illusion Longshanks had planted: “Fight and you may die. Run and you’ll live… at least a while.” Here, Wallace does not deny death. He acknowledges it as an objective reality. Yet he shatters Longshanks’ tool of manipulation by revealing that a life purchased through flight and submission to the tyrant is merely a prolonged biological existence – a life imprisoned within fear. When Wallace conjures the image of them lying on their deathbeds years hence, tormented and willing to exchange all those days of shame for a single chance to return to this field, he proves a profound truth: clinging to a cowardly life is more terrifying than death itself. Death as a Gift: Liberation and the Ultimate Freedom: The deepest resonance with the ancient philosophy that “Death is God’s gift” appears in the closing words of the speech: “…and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they’ll never take our FREEDOM!” The ancients believed that the Creator granted death to man so that he should not remain chained to the material world, that his soul might fly free. In Wallace’s words, death upon the battlefield for a noble cause carries that same redemptive power of release. Wallace restores to death its original and noble meaning. Longshanks might wield earthly power to destroy the body (“take our lives”), but that is the limit of his reach. Death is the very portal at which the tyrant’s manipulation loses all efficacy. When a soldier is willing to step through that door for the sake of freedom, he slips forever beyond Longshanks’ control. Thus death becomes a precious gift – a privilege that allows a man to choose the manner of his ending: to depart as a free human being rather than to wither slowly in the captivity of fear. William Wallace’s oration retains its timeless power because it is never dogmatic. He does not blindly urge men toward death; instead, he helps them see through the psychological game of the tyrant. By placing Freedom above a mere trembling survival, Wallace transforms death from the terrifying spectre woven by Longshanks into a proud gift of destiny – the place where man discovers an absolute liberty that no despot can ever touch.

It's not about what we have or don't have that drives our trading decisions—it's what we're afraid of losing. This fear of loss has often led me down the false path of perfectionism. Yet true mastery and profitability in trading, like in art, comes from embracing the craft's imperfections. ✉️ At the recent Mumbai traders' meetup, Chhirag Kedia spoke a line that has resonated with me all week— वो आदमी सफल होने से कोई रोक नहीं सकता जो अपनी कश्ती जला कर आया हो! It made me reflect on my trading journey and how my risk-taking appetite has evolved over the years. I'm inherently risk-conservative as an individual, though my career decisions and trajectory paint a completely opposite picture. I've never gone bust or even had a significant drawdown in my trading life—initially because I was too cautious, and now because my skills have improved. When I look back at my interactions with other traders and analyse my own performance graph, I am noticing a pattern: traders who started recklessly or faced major drawdowns—but persistently improved their execution—often developed better and faster learning curves than those who began cautiously with small positions. Even Quallamaggie (Q) and Zanger (Z) demonstrated similar patterns—their initial failures didn't reduce their risk appetite or aggression. Rather, they increased their risk appetite as their accounts grew larger. When ordinary traders dismiss Q and Z as exceptions in the trading world, they're likely rationalizing their own fears—fear of bouncing back from setbacks beyond their risk comfort zone, and fear of not having enough skin in the game. After all, as Taleb says, courage is the only virtue you cannot fake. I wonder if I would have been a better trader today had I started more aggressively—even borderline recklessly—and then learned to control that aggression, rather than the other way around. Has my obsession with perfection (or trying to get close to it) actually slowed down my learning curve as a trader? Perfectionism and Self-Abuse In every trade—even with flawless setups and meticulously calculated risks—there are countless ways to feel wrong, whether you make money or not: You buy and it goes down You don't buy and it goes up You buy, it falls, you sell—then it goes up It goes up, you sell, and it keeps going up It goes up, you buy, it goes up further—then drops You buy with half size and it moves up; you pyramid with full size and it goes down You buy with double size and it drops; you buy with half size and it doesn't go up as much . . . and the list can go on But there is only one way you'll feel right: When you buy and it immediately goes up, and when you sell and it immediately goes down. And this is a very very rare instance. But the pursuit of perfect trade—trying to capture both the first and last eighth of every trade—is where much self-belief and confidence is needlessly lost. The search for the perfect chart, perfect market conditions, and perfect mindset was probably the most paralyzing form of self-abuse in trading I had done. It led me to the comfort of inaction rather than risk the ego to scrape the imperfect rewards on offer. Lets take up an example that was discussed in the last Mumbai meetup - PDMJE Paper - Trade Objective An Episodic Pivot setup, gapping out of a big base, to be held as a longer positional play. Entry (Orange lines) 29th October 2024 Entry 113.95, Stop Loss 2% - 111.7 (~Day low) Risk on Trade 0.75% of portfolio, Size - 35% Sells (Blue Lines) 50% Sell at 6R - 128.6 - This was not a planned sell, but I observed weak market depth with sporadic volumes over the next 3-4 days. As a precaution, I reduced size in this illiquid counter. = 3R 50% sell at ~12R - 143 - The swing move had become overextended, moving far from the 10/21 EMA. The position was sold when price broke below the opening range lows in weakness. = 6R Impact of portfolio - 6.75% Analyzing this trade up to this point, it was executed well with little room for improvement—almost perfect. This was also a very obvious EP trade, and many others had executed it similarly. In the group discussion of this trade, even though everyone had profited, regret about the price movements after exit overshadowed the satisfaction from actual gains. If you had missed the pullback entries near the 21 EMA on November 13th (which wasn't actually setup-ready) or the breakout entry that triggered on November 29th (when markets were strong and many stocks were breaking out), you would have likely missed the 80% move that happened in less than a month, which I did. The traders in the group spent much of their emotional energy obsessing over this missed opportunity, ultimately accumulating emotional debt from the markets. The paradox of trading is that while realized losses may dent our account, missing potential gains often dent our confidence. Each time we let the fear of missed opportunities overshadow our actual successes, we unconsciously train ourselves to trade smaller, not bigger - precisely when our proven profitability should be empowering us to scale up. It took me years to understand that successful trading doesn't require feeling happy. I can make sound decisions and evaluate my performance objectively, even when I feel frustrated about missed opportunities. The only true nobility in this business is making money, not chasing dopamine highs. The Adjustment Taking a loss is straightforward—we simply follow our stop loss. The real challenge—and greatest potential for regret—lies in managing profitable positions, particularly when a stock has made big moves in a short period. This is particularly common in magnitude trades like an EP or IPO where our objective is to hold for a longer duration and sell into weakness, but often have moments when the stock is overextended in the short term with a high probability of pulling back. However, we hesitate to sell either because it conflicts with our original trade objective or because we fear missing the chance to buy back during the pullback. This is where many professional traders actively manage their core positions. Rather than passively waiting for a deeper trailing stop loss to trigger during weakness, they sell a portion when the price becomes extended and buy back the same amount at a lower price. This strategy proves more effective than enduring drawdowns while waiting for a formal pullback setup at support levels or moving averages. Let's take a recent example of IGIL (5 min chart) - Trade Objective An early-stage IPO setup displaying a typical volatility contraction pattern (VCP) on intraday charts. The plan is to hold this as a longer-term position, treating it as an All-or-Nothing trade. Entry (Orange line) 24th December 2024 Entry 504, Stop Loss 2% - 493.95 Risk on Trade 0.50% of portfolio, Size - 23% of pf Adjustment Context - 27th December 2024 The stock had surged powerfully over the previous two days, hitting Upper Circuits. On the third day, despite gapping up at open, it immediately broke down during the opening range - like a typical parabolic short setup. This was a point with a high probability of a short-term pullback or consolidation. Sells (Blue Line) 27th December - 585 - 50% size Buyback (Orange line 2) 27th December - 565 - 50% size - Gained 1R Rationale - My anchor bias was for the price to cool off for a bit. - At the 27th open, the price was already at ~8R+ for me. Even if the stock rose further after I sold my partial position, I wouldn't regret it much—I had already secured 4R with half my position still pending, well above my journal averages. This served as an important emotional anchor point for this adjustment. - When buying back, I was simply looking to average down my costs without a specific target or a perfect setup in mind. In this case, I bought back at 565, as the buyback itself presented a good psychological point to cover (10 Rs initial stop loss, 20 Rs points averaged ~1R at half size). It could have been lower too if the breakdown was slower. This was more intuitive and intentionally imperfect. - I close most of these adjustments on the same day since they are just short-term pullbacks and my overall bias remains bullish. A magnitude trade can also be looked at as a combination of several intraday trades around a core position. - This adjustment method applies specifically to magnitude trades like EP and IPO positions, where the trade objective aligns with pyramiding or averaging costs. Caveat You might think this is a cherry-picked example—and you'd be partly right, since it's one of my better and more recent trades (you can see similar patterns in Care or TI). However, I urge you to stay open to the concept. Look back at your previous trades where you held positions too long passively—you'll often find that temporary extensions and pullbacks were easily visible, offering opportunities to capture additional R’s along the way. Traders commonly face similar emotions and dilemmas when deciding how to act in these situations. End Note

Jimmy on a story of loss 😔 and the heartbreaking reality of Northern Thailand’s PM2.5 crisis 💨 JS CEAN WATER FEST #KingPowerSongkran2026xJSAVOCEAN #jimmyyjp #JimmySea 💬: May I bring up one more topic? We’ve seen P’Jimmy speaking up about this. 💜: Aww, yes. 💬: Right now, especially in the North, things are really bad (referring to the air pollution/PM2.5). 💜: Yes. To be honest, this problem has been around for a very long time since I was a student. If I remember correctly, around my 2nd or 3rd year of uni, it started getting bad. There was one year that was particularly intense; I remember driving in Chiang Mai and having to stay under 80 km/h because the dust was so thick I couldn't see more than 2 or 3 car lengths ahead. It’s truly severe. We used to pray every day for rain because it usually happens around April or May, Thailand's summer. We’d pray, "Okay, if it’s going to be hot, then let it be boiling," so the water would evaporate and turn into rain. When it rains, things improve for a day or two, but even then, it’s not "good". It’s just better than the worst. I mean, it hits the top of the world rankings every year; it’s always number one. I got very emotional about it when my friend passed away. That friend was the "Moon" (representative) of my faculty's year. He lived a very healthy life. He didn't smoke, didn't drink. We were in the basketball club together, he hit the gym, and he ran all the time. But he was someone who loved running outdoors. And well, he passed away. What really touched me was that he had just finished his specialist medical training and, as many might know, he was about to get married. He had bought a house in Chiang Mai. He was actually from Bangkok, but he found love there and intended to settle down. He had the house ready and then... this happened. But luckily… if you can call it luck in a bad situation, he had bought life insurance right after graduating. 🩵: Mmh 😟 💜: Yes, so he received excellent medical treatment and spent the rest of his life inspiring people. Without that specific medication which is incredibly expensive, he wouldn't have had as much time. Having that medicine allowed his life to be extended for a significant period, and he used that time to inspire others. 💬: Do you think there’s a chance this can be fixed? Like you said, it’s been happening since you were a student, and yet it remains the same, looping in the same cycle. 💜: I believe dust isn't like cancer (incurable); I believe there is a way to make it go away. It doesn't happen every month, right? It only happens during that specific period. So, there must be a way. I think many people know the root causes. It requires everyone to cooperate, and the relevant agencies have to help too. The reason I decided to post that day was because I saw the air quality figures constantly, and whenever I opened social media, I saw people coughing up blood. Waking up to fresh blood... it’s like "Good Morning Blood" every day. It just doesn't make sense. Why do Thai people have to have this quality of life? Nearly half the country lives there. People I love and many of my friends are there. There are also many brilliant professors and doctors there who are ready to treat people like, if it's liver transplants, Chiang Mai is number one. Many of these experts live there with their families. Having them face this risk every day, losing such important personnel, or even losing local villagers to lung cancer... The North actually has the highest incidence of lung cancer not caused by smoking in all of Thailand. So, I want to leave this with everyone and not just the North. Bangkok has it occasionally too, though it’s not as severe because it's the capital, the management is faster, and people are very aware. Please take care, everyone. And if you can afford an air purifier, please go get one. 💬: Okay, thank you for today. 💜🩵: 🙏🏻🙏🏻

BREAKING NEWS🚨🚨🚨:. Michael Proctor lost his last-minute request to delay his deposition in the Karen Read and John O'Keefe civil case. As a result, Proctor is required to attend a deposition with Alan Jackson on June 25th or July 14th. Karen Read and Alan Jackson have won, again. As the ruling was handed down late Monday at the conclusion of a 4:15PM ET Zoom hearing in front of Judge Gildea in Plymouth Superior Court --after an emergency 8:45AM ET hearing led to a six hour race-against-the-clock where Proctor's counsel was given one last chance to provide the court sufficient grounds to delay Proctor's deposition-- I reported: Judge Gildea finds that the supplemental submission does not meet the requirements to delay the deposition. Judge found that the person who submitted a document on Proctor's behalf was not qualified to do so. Then a random person named "Brendon" joined the Zoom and cussed. Then Judge went back to his ruling and found the letter submitted turned the request from Proctor into a request to delay his deposition forever. That, Judge Gildea found, was not what Proctor originally requested. Further, the letter was done by Committee but all Committee members were not present. The motion for a protective order is denied. Proctor shall appear TOMORROW, ruled Judge Gildea originally. However, due to scheduling conflicts for counsel, further discussion needed to occur and the hearing did not end. I then reported: Lawyers for all parties are now heading into a breakout room to discuss the nature of Michael Proctor's deposition. The hearing is not yet over, as Judge Gildea wants an update from Karen Read's counsel about how long this deposition will take before the end for the day. Shock and awe ruling from Judge Gildea right there, as to denying Proctor's request for a proactive order to delay his deposition. After the breakout room ended, I reported; Karen's lawyers propose the dates of June 25th (the day of a status hearing in the case) or July 14th. Judge Gildea modifies his order to say that Proctor shall appear on a date agreed to by counsel. Judge asks what depositions are scheduled for June 24th. The Brian Albert is on June 24th, but that may be subject to a motion to compel. Karen's deposition is also June 24th. The 26th is Matthew McCabe, also subject to discussion and a motion to compel, scheduled for 10AM ET. There will be a status conference on the 26th of June, 2026, at 9:45AM. "The timing of that hearing will encourage us all to be brief," Judge Gildea said. We will see you then. The hearing for June 25th is now moved to June 26th, 2026. Earlier today, I reported; The Michael Proctor and Sean Goode "Proctorgate" files have caused serious damage, and Karen Read stands tall. Read more about those shocking, and abhorrent, messages here (also discussed by Judge Gildea during today's hearing) wherein Proctor (a former State Trooper who investigated Karen Read for the death of John O'Keefe) and former Canton cop Sean Goode talked about everything from how Anne Frank was a "liar" to how Proctor felt Goode should "let them die" after Proctor noticed a car accident victim was, in Proctor's words, a "ni**er". Proctor also discussed "planting cocaine" on someone and, shockingly, said "America sucks" because the country stopped the Third Reich during World War II (while, at the same time, saying "Jews in Sharon" should be "put in a concentration camp") at this link: To this day, the death of John O'Keefe remains unsolved. Proctor is just one of multiple witnesses involving in the twice-failed prosecution of Karen for John's death who Read's lawyers have told Judge Gildea are attempting to avoid or delay depositions (including Colin Albert, Jennifer McCabe, Brian Higgins, Matt McCabe, Nicole Albert and Brian Albert). Last week, on Wednesday, I reported: In a shocking hearing before Judge Mark Gildea on Wednesday, Karen Read's lawyers announced that they have been forced to file a motion to compel a deposition of Colin Albert. Further, Karen's lawyers will be filing motions to compel depositions of Jennifer McCabe, Brian Higgins, Matt McCabe, Nicole Albert and Brian Albert, as those parties are seeking to delay their depositions until late July, or early August, of 2026. "Colin Albert refused to appear or produce documents...his attorney said he is unavailable and then, suddenly, said Colin would only be available for seven more days and, then, [Colin] would be gone for the entire discovery period," Karen's Lawyer, Aaron Rosenberg, told Judge Gildea during Wednesday's hearing. In that regard, here is the full recording of today's John O'Keefe and Karen Read hearing in Plymouth Superior Court. This case is one of three ongoing civil lawsuits (one in federal court and two in Plymouth District Court in front of Judge Gildea) that stem from the, yet-unsolved, murder of Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe. To this day, it is unclear if anyone has found the Mystery Man who is suspected of being at the center of potential upcoming investigations by state and federal authorities as to John's death. Read more about that Mystery Man here - More background on last Wednesday's hearing (also involving deposition disputes): Judge Gildea began Wednesday's hearing by asking counsel for all parties how many depositions have been conducted in the case. "I am hoping at least four have been taken," said Judge Gildea. The O'Keefe lawyer told Judge Gildea that only three depositions have taken place. Judge then asked the O'Keefe lawyer what depositions need to still take place for the plaintiffs. "There are 12," the O'Keefe lawyer responded, including Paul Markowski. The O'Keefe lawyers also need to change Karen's deposition until June 24th. The O'Keefe lawyers changed Karen's deposition from July to June 19th, but multiple lawyer's will not be working on that day as that day is a federal holiday. Judge was not pleased that so few depositions have taken place, but Judge understood that June 19th is a federal holiday and, in turn, Karen's deposition will be held on June 24th, 2026. Karen's lawyers had proposed four other dates and Mr. Diller (the O'Keefe lawyer) picked a federal holiday, instead. "It is beyond belief to me the number of experienced lawyers involved in this case, the length the case has been pending...for however long it has been pending for all parties...that there are so few depositions that have taken place...I don't need to hear all the details, and the nitpicking, what I need to hear is, going forward, how you all are going to get the discovery done," Judge Gildea said to all lawyers. Things, at that point, got quite intense, as Karen's lawyers then noted to Judge Gildea that they have six depositions currently scheduled for the following six witnesses; Brian and Nicole Albert, Matthew McCabe, Allie McCabe, Jennifer McCabe and Brian Higgins. However, the law firm for all of those people got back to Karen's lawyers last night, on June 2nd, 2026, at 9:45PM and said NONE of those witnesses could appear on the dates scheduled for their depositions and, for some reason, none of those witnesses are able to appear for depositions until late July of 2026 at the earliest. Stunningly, no reason was given for why those witnesses refused to appear for their depositions on the dates originally proposed by Karen's lawyers, Attorney Rosenberg told Judge Gildea. Those notices of depositions went out on May 5th, 2026, said Karen's lawyers, when Judge Gildea asked about that date (indicating Judge Gildea, already displeased with discovery and deposition delays in the years-old case, was not pleased to hear about witnesses, on their own accord, attempting to delay depositions by two more months). Karen's lawyers, picking up on Judge Gildea's frustration, then noted that they intend to file motions to compel those witnesses to appear for depositions as a result of the proposed delays. Also, during the hearing, it was announced that former Massachusetts State Trooper Michael Proctor will be deposed by Karen Read's lawyers on Monday, June 8th, 2026, per a statement from Karen's lawyers in court on Wednesday. The O'Keefe lawyer, for their part, noted they intend to depose Aidan Kearney, Karen Read, Kaitlin Boudreau Read (Nathan Read's wife), Janet Read, Nathan Read, William Read, multiple witnesses from the bars (C.F. McCarthy's and The Waterfall), and an outstanding deposition that Karen's team needed to move last week. Judge Gildea then asked what, if anything, he could do to help the parties (other than moving quickly on motions before the court when submitted). Both parties said they will involve the court, in motion practice, as needed going forward. Judge then wanted to know what motions have been sent out under Rule 9(a). It was at that point that Karen's lawyers announced that she will be filing a motion to compel production of documents and the deposition of Colin Albert. "Colin Albert refused to appear or produce documents...his attorney said he is unavailable and then, suddenly, said Colin would only be available for seven more days and then [Colin] would be gone for the entire discovery period," Karen's Lawyer, Aaron Rosenberg, told Judge Mark Gildea during the hearing. Earlier, Karen also announced that she intends to file similar motions for Brian Higgins, Matt McCabe, Jen McCabe, Nicole Albert and Brian Albert, as those witnesses are attempting to avoid their depositions until late July or early August of 2026. The O'Keefe lawyer, for their part, told Judge Gildea they intend to serve a motion to compel regarding Aidan Kearney as a keeper of record (and, for some reason, Diller wants documents from Aidan's ongoing case in Norfolk Superior Court). "File a motion and we'll put it on for an expedited hearing," Judge Gildea said regarding that issue, and any other motions to compel the parties may want to file (including the motion regarding Colin Albert that has already been served, and should be in the docket in the next few weeks). When a motion is served under Rule 9(a), it is first given to the opposing party who then responds. Then, the moving party (the "movant") is able to file a sur-reply. Only at that point does the entire motion to compel get compiled as a so-called "Rule 9 (a) package" and, in turn, appear on the docket (with all filings related to a given motion showing up at the same time). It is unclear when the motions to compel the depositions of Brian Higgins, Jen McCabe, Matt McCabe, Nicole Albert and Brian Albert will be served and, eventually, docketed with the court. Penalties for third-parties who avoid discovery, or document production requests, can include court sanctions, compelled deposition dates, and adverse evidentiary rulings if a motion to compel is granted, yet further delays then occur. Judge Gildea told all of the lawyers present that he expects to dive deep into the issue of who was issued deposition notices in this case, who avoided those depositions, who delayed depositions and, in turn, what remedies the court will impose. "We served it Monday," the O'Keefe lawyer then said, as the hearing ended (indicating a number of motions to compel discovery, or depositions, may be heard over the coming weeks under the sweltering heat of Judge Gildea's virtual courtroom stare).
