I wasn’t planning to do the year-end collection of writings thread, but I would like to bury all the rather unpleasant notifications coming in from my critique of Stock, so...
I did not *write* much this year, but I was lucky to have a few things published anyway:
4. On Adorno and exploitation https://t.co/cejOfqx4Hs
Thoughts on Adorno, exploitation, the bounds of agency, and control vs. domination.
— William Clare Roberts (@MarxinHell) May 19, 2020
I think this bit in Adorno is of a peice with the Frankfurt School's anti-positivism, even if it is an extreme pole within the school. 1/ https://t.co/T02vqKLFDd
Been meaning to get back to this \u2014 here is a thread on the value of Althusser\u2019s reading of Marx: 1/15 https://t.co/j8vLXMP3hc

In defense of cancel culture, a thread:
— William Clare Roberts (@MarxinHell) July 8, 2020
One of the markers of canceling is that it is crowd action. Being canceled is not being fired, being jailed, being excommunicated. It can lead to these things, but they are separate acts, carried out by agents with official power. 1/10
Last week I gave a qualified defense of canceling on democratic grounds. Today I want to say something about this thread by Teresa Bejan.

(Prof. Bejan is going to be a colleague for a while this next year, so, COVID permitting, we\u2019ll be able to discuss this IRL.) 1/20 https://t.co/lHFbJIVUPa
I just had a very fruitful discussion (with some of the McGill poli sci grad students and my colleague @KrzPelc ) of @owasow's much discussed APSR paper, "Agenda Seeding: How 1960s Black Protest Moved Elites, Public Opinion, and Voting."

And I have questions!
1/20
1. An essay on Lissagaray and the Commune, forthcoming in @NCFS_journal
2. An essay on CLR James in The CLR James Journal
3. A small provocation on Rawls
I wish everyone a better year in 2021. See you on the flipside!

Yesterday was brutal for some people...
Losing life-changing money sucks, losing any money sucks...you can chase the market or you can change your strategy.
2/ The original thread is gone but you can read it here.

tl;dr
- Traded $32k to $1.2m
- Thought I was a genius
- Made poor investments
- Didn't conserve capital
- Peaked at 150 BTC
- Lost nearly all of it
2 weeks from losing my house + no income. Oops.
3/ I am going to assume you are in it for the money rather than the tech. Yeah, you might Tweet about the amazing blockchaining of cross-border payments and oracles yadda yadda...really, you are in it to make money.
If you are really in it for the tech, go and build something.
4/ Okay, so if you want to make money, trading is super hard, you are trading against:
- Better traders than you
- People who can move markets
- Unknown information
And if you are trading with leverage you might blow up your account with the volatility.
5/ If you are not trading, you are investing. Okay, so what are you investing in?
I made the decision that the crypto with the best opportunity of existing in 10 years is #Bitcoin:
- Solves a genuine problem
- The right tech
- A proven track record
Turns out, patterns trading is simple—if you follow these 8 Patterns:
Let's start: ↓
While studying her Twitter profile and with constant talks with her, I found these to be the most important patterns she focuses on always.
Then I wrote a small summary of what each pattern means.
Also attached are some examples from her tweets.
1/ Cup and handle Pattern
Happens during an uptrend.
The cup portion has a U-shaped appearance.

Whenever the index is moving in a single direction, its important to go with the trend.
A few weeks ago when BNF broke out of the cup and handle pattern, all we had to do was sell PEs.
