Global markets were rocked by a sudden sell-off, wiping out trillions in value as even “safe havens” like gold and silver plunged alongside cryptocurrencies. In late January 2026, global markets witnessed an almost unprecedented meltdown. In a matter of minutes, over $3 trillion in market value evaporated as gold, silver, and cryptocurrencies plunged across the board.

Gold, silver, and copper have seen their prices skyrocket worldwide, surging to levels that many investors once thought impossible. In early 2026, gold breached ~$4,700 per ounce, silver neared ~$95 per ounce, and copper hit around ~$13,500 per ton — all at or near record highs. In 2025 alone, gold jumped roughly 60% and silver an astonishing 150–160%, marking silver’s best year since 1979. Copper, often dubbed "Dr. Copper" for its economic barometer role, climbed over 40% to

The financial markets entering 2026 are faster, noisier, and more information-dense than ever before. Data travels instantly, opinions multiply endlessly, and short-term price movements dominate headlines. Yet, despite all this complexity, the core principles of successful investing remain unchanged.

December 2025 P&L Review: Consistency in Quiet Markets Is the Ultimate Signal of Strength Financial markets often disguise their most important lessons in silence. December 2025 was not a month of chaos or dramatic headlines—it was a month of restraint, thinning liquidity, and selective opportunity. And in such months, the market doesn’t reward activity. It rewards discipline. TradeX’s December performance stands as a clear reminder of a core truth we operate by

If 2024 was about anticipation, 2025 was about realization. Markets didn’t just move — they revealed structure.They showed investors what truly matters when liquidity shifts, geopolitics intrudes, and narratives collide with hard macro realities. Gold rewrote history.Bitcoin reminded everyone what volatility really means.Central banks quietly but decisively pivoted.And geopolitics proved that headlines move faster than fundamentals — but fundamentals eventually win.

As the year draws to a close, markets invite a familiar temptation: to measure success through , returns and headlines.

Most investors grow up with a simple belief: markets reflect reality. Prices move because fundamentals change. Assets rise because value improves. Crashes happen because something breaks.

Japan is finally moving away from the “free money” era—and crypto markets are reacting every time. Over the last five years, Bitcoin (BTC) has increasingly behaved like a global risk asset: when global liquidity tightens and leverage unwinds, BTC tends to fall fast. The Bank of Japan (BOJ), after decades of ultra-low and even negative rates, has started a policy normalization cycle that’s becoming one of the most important macro drivers for crypto—especially because Japan sit

In recent months, financial markets have been forced to confront a question that rarely arises in modern U.S. monetary history: Could the Federal Reserve Chair be pushed out for political reasons—and what would that mean for investors?

When Jack Schwager published Market Wizards , he didn’t just interview successful traders—he decoded the psychology, discipline, and mental architecture that makes them exceptional. Across hundreds of pages, what emerges is not a secret strategy or a magic indicator, but a timeless truth: The market rewards traders who master themselves, not those who chase predictions. Schwager’s conversations with the world’s most accomplished traders—from macro giants to scalpers, trend-fo

A Five-Year Battle. Billions at Stake. A Precedent That May Shape the Next Decade of Digital Asset Regulation.

Financial markets have always rewarded one thing above everything else: clarity of thought.Not timing.Not predictions.Not even intelligence.But clarity — the ability to see reality accurately, make rational decisions, and follow a consistent process.This is why this week, we turn to one of the most influential books in global finance: Ray Dalio’s Principles.

November 2025 was a perfect demonstration of this philosophy in action. It was a month that began with caution, unfolded with significant turbulence across global markets, and ended with an outcome we are deeply proud of—not because of extraordinary profits, but because of extraordinary restraint. While the world faced record liquidations, we relied on the same foundation that has guided us for years—risk-first discipline.

Markets reward discipline, not impulse. Yet even the most experienced investors often underestimate how deeply their own psychology shapes their decisions. Daniel Kahneman’s Thinking, Fast and Slow remains one of the most important works ever written on human judgment, particularly for individuals navigating financial risk.

First published in 1949, The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham remains one of the most respected books on investing — not because it predicts the market, but because it teaches how to behave in the market. Warren Buffett famously called it “by far the best book on investing ever written.” At TradeX, we believe timeless investing wisdom deserves a modern voice — especially in a world driven by speculation, hype, and algorithmic speed.

Bitcoin’s fall below six figures marks a stunning about-face after a prolonged rally. On November 4, 2025, Bitcoin broke below $100,000 – a level it had held for roughly 180 days – completing a 20% slide from its all-time high (~$126,210) reached just weeks earlier[2]. The breach of the $100K psychological support triggered broad market panic, with a wave of sell-offs intensifying across the crypto market.

Most people think building wealth is about intelligence — finding the right trades, timing the market, chasing the next big token. But The Psychology of Money teaches something far deeper: wealth isn’t built in spreadsheets — it’s built in behavior. The markets don’t care about your IQ. They care about your EQ — your emotional discipline.

“Till the time you don’t book a profit, it’s not a profit.” In trading and investing, profit isn’t truly yours until you realize it. Understanding the Concept In trading and investing, profit isn’t truly yours until you realize it. A realized profit (or gain) occurs when you sell an asset for more than you paid, locking in that increase in value as actual money in your account. By contrast, an unrealized profit – also known as a notional, paper, or book profit – is a gain tha

Every week, thousands of new investors open accounts, download trading apps, and watch yet another “How to get rich” video. But very few pause to ask why they’re investing in the first place.
