PPI, CPI, the Clarity Act vote, the Fed and the Bank of Japan, all between 10 and 18 September. I don't guess the outcomes. I decide in advance what I do in each scenario. Here is the week, event by event, and the plan I trade it with.

The stock market makes its money at night. You still can't trade it.
A viral reel says Micron would have returned 138 million percent if you had bought every close and sold every open, and lost 99% the other way round.

We backtested "buy the dip" on 538 trending stocks. It lost to buying every month.
Everyone has the same plan — wait for Coca-Cola or Apple to drop 30%, then strike. I measured 20 years of dips on 538 trending stocks across 13 markets.

Second brain — what actually matters
After a year of running everything from a folder of markdown files, the lessons fit on ten sticky notes. The one that matters most — plain text + git = memory that compounds.

Social media is a goldmine (1M SEK/mo)
Paid ads only got more expensive. So I built my own audience instead — in Swedish, honestly, and without selling much. Today it turns over 800k–1.1M SEK a month.

The years keep getting shorter
Time feels faster every year — and the real reason isn't your biology, it's that you stopped exploring. Here's what the research actually says, and how to slow it back down.

Backtesting trading robots — and the lie of the perfect curve

I traded $30k/mo for $3.4 million

The Grid Hedge Scalper — +98% then back to +48%
A gold robot I started at $20,000. It climbed to almost +100%, took a big hit, and I switched it off at +48.2%. The honest record, and why I pulled the plug.

Dollar Ninja — +200% on the tracker, +105% in cash
A EUR/USD robot that ran for about 15 months in 2020–2021. The tracker showed +200%, but that figure includes deposits I added along the way — the real result was closer to +105%.

One folder, three companies
My entire operating system is plain text in a folder I own. Every new AI tool just reads the same files. That's the whole trick.
