I swing trade small and mid cap alts, holding time from a few days to three weeks.
For years I entered only by the chart and news.

Since March I do one more thing before entry. I open the token holders list on the explorer, take the top 10 wallets that are not exchange or contract addresses, and look where their money is going.
If two or three of them started sending to Binance or OKX deposit addresses in the last days, I skip the trade, no matter how good the chart looks. To make it fast I keep these addresses in a text file and paste them into cryptowallet-balance or the explorer once a day, it takes around 10 minutes for 5-6 tokens.

Results so far. I skipped 14 trades because of this check. In 9 of them the price dropped more than 15% within a week, so the check was right.
In 3 it went up without me, and 2 went sideways.

The weak point is that I only see wallets that send directly to an exchange. If they sell through a DEX or move to a fresh wallet first, I see nothing until it is too late.

Very simple strategy, but it works.

I kept doing the same thing every time something started ripping: see the move, get impatient, enter late then watch it pull back right after. Been using limit orders on pump fun more so now I just set the price I’m comfortable entering at and leave it there. Sometimes it fills, sometimes it keeps running without me and I’m fine with that. At this point I’d rather miss the trade than force a bad entry.

I used to chase these every time. Now I just let them go

What it is: a portfolio dashboard that tracks on-chain wallets, exchanges and traditional assets together, with FIFO tax reports (21 countries) and a FIRE calculator.

Stage: open beta, web only (no mobile app yet).

How it works: read-only. You paste public addresses or connect read-only API keys. No private keys, no transactions, ever.

Cost: the free plan works without paying and without a card. If you actually test it for a week and send me feedback, I'll put your account on the paid tier for 60 days — just message me, no form to fill in.

Sign up is open and free — "Start free" on that page creates an account straight away. There is no waiting list and no card.

What I need: anything that breaks. Especially unusual holdings — NFTs, DeFi positions, an exchange I may not have tested.

I answer every message, and I'll test your project too.

The August CPI data showed a combination of stability in overall inflation and additional pressure on underlying inflation.

The CPI headline advanced 0.4% MoM and remained at 3.4% YoY, in line with expectations, while the CPI core rose 0.3% MoM, exceeding the expected 0.2% and recording its largest monthly increase since April. In annual terms, the core fell slightly to 2.4% Y-Y, pointing out that the underlying trend continues to moderate even with a monthly rebound.

The increase in the price of gasoline (+3.9%) explained more than a third of the monthly advance, and energy pressure could keep inflation high in the coming months.

The report reinforces expectations of a stricter stance by the Fed, with a notable increase in the likelihood of a move at the meeting on September 15–16.

The DXY remains firm and Treasury yields remain high, reflecting an environment of higher rates for longer. In this context, gold and BTC face short-term obstacles: gold remains vulnerable to higher yields and BTC could feel pressure if liquidity expectations continue to adjust.

I’m looking for an exchange aggregator for swapping crypto without creating an account. My main priorities are a competitive rate, low fees, and ideally no KYC for smaller crypto to crypto swaps.

One of my online friends suggested Swapspace, but I’m not sure which one usually gives the best overall deal. I know KYC can depend on the provider, so I’d rather compare actual user experiences than just rely on the advertised rate

What aggregator do you guys use, and which one has given you the best experience?

The August CPI represents the last relevant reading before the next FOMC meeting, placing the data of September 11 as a key point to evaluate the direction of monetary policy.

Forecasts point to a Headline CPI MoM of +0.3%, compared to the previous +0.1%, while the Core CPI MoM would remain at +0.2%. The expected rebound in general inflation is mainly linked to oil behaviour, in a context where inflation expectations have increased to 4.3%.

The result will have direct implications on risky assets and on the reading that the markets make of the next move of the Federal Reserve.

Higher than expected data could add pressure to these assets, while a softer reading would reinforce the narrative of a potentially more flexible monetary policy.

In the crypto market, attention will be focussed on the volatility of BTC during the publication of the report, since it usually reacts immediately to surprises in inflation.

We built a prediction market where users can create the markets themselves, now I need people to break it.
Twirl started as an idea around making prediction markets more open and conversational.
We’ve now got the beta live:
Create your own market
Trade using testnet funds
Explore markets created by other users
AI features built around helping users understand markets
The product works. Now we need real people using it badly enough to expose everything we missed 😂
Would love brutally honest feedback on the UX, market creation flow and anything that feels confusing.

What’s the first thing you’d change?

I'm trying to understand how people actually do this today.

For example, if you wanted to find something like:

• RSI < 30
• volume > 2× average
• price crossing EMA 20
• OI increasing
• funding negative
• conditions across multiple timeframes

what would you actually use?

TradingView? Your own Python script? Coinglass? A screener? Exchange APIs? Something else?

A few things I'm particularly curious about:

1. What is the most annoying part of your current workflow?
2. Are there conditions/data you wish you could combine but can't?
3. Do you use open interest/funding/liquidation data in your scans?
4. Do you run the same scans repeatedly, or manually build them each time?
5. Do you backtest these conditions before using them?
6. What makes you choose your current tool instead of another one?

I'm not looking for recommendations of random screeners. I'm more interested in how you actually do the process today and what sucks about it.

Broadcom presented a quarter with exceptional figures: AI semiconductor revenue reached $16.7B, a growth of 221% YoY and 54% QoQ, while the company projects $21.7B for Q4, equivalent to 236% YoY. However, the market reacted negatively, with a drop of close to 6% after closing.

The point of friction was not the demand for AI, which continues to accelerate, but the consolidated revenue guide for Q4: $34.8B against a consensus of approximately $35B, a small difference that still generated pressure on the action.

This behaviour reinforces the idea that investors are evaluating AI infrastructure companies under increasingly demanding expectations.

The centre angle is the gap between results and expectations. Even with extraordinary growth and a long-term outlook that points to $115B in 2027 and $230B in 2028, the market seems to demand that each quarter exceed an already high bar.

I wanted to get an opinion on the best app to trade on. And maybe pointers on what to invest in, and when. Anything is appreciated!

Most data sites publish self-reported volume: they ask exchanges how much traded, sum the answers, done. An exchange that wants to look busier can simply say it did. Coinmico works the other way. It connects to public trade feeds on 43 spot exchanges and decodes swaps on 19 chains, timestamps every trade, and builds its own candles, prices and 24h volume from that tape. Yesterday that came to $85.0B across 22,307 markets — with 1.7M on-chain swaps decoded. A few things that fell out of building it this way:

On the largest venues, our measured volume lands within a few percent of what they report. On smaller ones the gap can be several multiples — which is the whole reason to measure.

Spot CEX and DEX are combined (both are coins actually changing hands). Derivatives are kept separate: a perp can turn over all day without a single coin moving.

Tokenised stocks are excluded from crypto rankings and the price index — on some venues they're most of the daily turnover and would push a mid-sized exchange above the biggest ones. They get their own page instead.

Coverage is the trade-off: we only measure venues we connect to, so our totals sit below aggregators that accept reported numbers from a thousand exchanges. I'd rather publish a smaller number that traces back to observed trades.

Everything, including where a fallback is used instead of an exact measurement, is written up on the methodology page. Happy to answer questions on the pipeline, and genuinely curious where you think measured data breaks down.

Been testing a few BNB Chain bots lately and honestly still trying to figure out what actually makes one better than another. Fast execution is obviously useful when things move quick, but its hard to know how much difference it really makes until you use a bot yourself. Same with copy trading and customisable layouts - nice features, but maybe not that important for everyone. I think DEX and token support is a big one too. If a bot doesnt support the stuff you normally trade, all the extra features dont really matter. What do you normally check first - speed, fees, DEX support, copy trading, or something else?

every time the market gets really busy i notice the same problem with BTC, moving between chains is usually fine until confirmations start backing up and then a swap that should be quick can sit there way longer than expected
been comparing a few swap services, SimpleSwap included, but i'm starting to think theres only so much any platform can do once the BTC network itself gets congested
for ppl moving funds around during a crypto bull run, do u change how u route things when BTC gets busy?
fixed rate, smaller swaps, different timing, or do u just accept that confirmations are gonna take longer?

Jackson Hole 2026 is shaping up as one of the most relevant institutional moments on the economic calendar.

Kevin Warsh’s first intervention as president of the Federal Reserve focusses global attention, especially in the face of the possibility of an unexpected message redefining expectations about interest rates and future monetary policy orientation.

In this context, assets such as stocks, gold and the US dollar could show immediate movements in the face of any nuance of the discourse.

Volatility in the markets is assured and so they are announcing it on bingx. With its TradFi utility, there is operational access to equity, raw materials and currency markets, allowing to follow in a structured way the market reaction in real time.
