Cool post, that helped explain the term "full tilt" that I've heard before.
As for writing prompts, I think I remember you mentioning trying to start a hedge fund long ago... I've been studying different trading strategies, from automation/bots to manual trading, with DEX, CEX, forex brokers, and stock options trading. The last few days I've been watching a high leverage trader make quick trades that may only last a few minutes and would like to test this in the coming week. I'm wondering if you ever found strategies (either automated or manual) that worked well for you.
Enjoy the cruising!
Many thanks!

Hey JW,
I would write about this... but I think it's basically 100% scam and unfeasible to do. There's a big survivorship bias where the people that get lucky teach it and the people who fail slink away. My hedge fund (a generous title for a 21 year old investing his friends' money) was also horribly misguided and we lost 100% of investor money.
