Trade Ideas
Bullish on Bitcoin, hold or buy.
Bitcoin remains in a bull market; he is bullish and doesn't see new lows. He wants to see it chop or go up and thinks you have to be a bull here, especially if long alts.
Long Zcash for10-year consolidation breakout.
Zcash has consolidated under $800 for nearly 10 years. A breakout would be similar to gold's multi-year consolidation, leading to a 170%+ straight-line move. He is holding and not selling any coins, willing to round-trip.
Watch silver above $90.
Silver is currently uninteresting, but he would like to long it if it gets above $90 and starts moving again. Conditional watch.
Watch copper above $66 level.
Copper has juice and could be interesting if it consolidates and gets back above $66. That would be a chart he would long without knowing much about the commodity.
Fade SpaceX IPO top consensus.
Everyone expects the SpaceX IPO on June 12 to top-tick the stock market, but he sees it as consensus that is not being acted upon (no selling now). He is willing to take the other side, implying a long bias on SPY/S&P 500.
