My own positions, logged in the Academy as they closed. Each card leads with the actual price move; the figure after it is the return on the leveraged position. Tap any card to see the original screenshot.
A selection of my own trades, not a complete record and not a recommendation. Most were leveraged futures, where losses are magnified by exactly the same multiple — and crypto derivatives aren’t available to UK retail investors. Referral codes and account details removed.

The trade, the levels and the reasoning, every Monday. Members read it the day it’s published; everyone else gets it one week later.
Put £2–3K into Bitcoin, BNB and, once it launched, Solana — with no idea how to invest it. Made money fast into 2020, then gave much of it back selling on emotion. The full story is in Lesson 1.

Launched the free Investors Foundation community and started building CryptoDLY from the road. My SOL buying from $8 started in this accumulation window.
The free community passed 5,000 and a MEXC partnership followed. The Investors Academy launched, along with the first Series 1 research modules.
Invited to Token2049 Singapore, one of the world’s largest crypto conferences, and became a BloFin VIP futures trader.
15 research modules across three series, 11 interactive lessons and a weekly public Journal. The Bitcoin cycle thesis was published and timestamped on 1 September 2026.
You’ve seen the record. The next entry lands inside the Academy first.
CryptoDLY provides education only and does not give financial advice. Cryptoassets are high-risk and largely unregulated in the UK; you are unlikely to be protected if something goes wrong and you could lose all the money you invest. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Results shown include leveraged derivatives, which can lose money rapidly and are not available to retail investors in the UK.
