Wesley Cade writes under a pen name. The losses are real. I've been through more than one crypto bull market, and I lost money in ways that were only obvious afterward. So I went looking for people who actually knew what they were doing — Discord servers, Slack groups, Patreon research feeds. Some of it was real. Most of it wasn't. This newsletter is what came out of that. A systematic approach, documented in public, so you can watch it work or fail in real time.
