Mission: DeFi episodes

  • DeFi Lunch (Ep 267) - Jan 6, 2023 - @XBT3D (Shaun) teaches us how to long cycle trade

    Too many people spend their days and nights trying to catch trades on the short term. Shaun explains how he plays a much longer and less stressful game for big returns. 

    Identifying bottoms and entry points.

    How to maximize your entries and your exits for maximum profit. 

    What time frames work best for big gains. 

    Joe Cawley and Brad Nickel cover the DeFi news of the day, new opportunities in the space including liquidity pools, yield farming, staking, and much more.  

    This is not financial advice. Nothing said on the show should be considered financial advice. This is just the opinions of Brad Nickel, Joe Cawley, and our guests. None of us are financial advisors. Trading, participating, yield farming, liquidity pools, and all of DeFi and crypto is high risk and dangerous. If you decide to participate, do your own research. Never count on the research of others. We don't know what we are talking about and you can lose all your money. Never invest more than you can afford to lose, because you probably will lose it all.
