#TradeWarEases Trump will always be the one steering the most surreal news this season. Trading at this level means chasing news rather than relying on economic analysis, which doesn't yield much.

This market is definitely not for the faint-hearted, especially with Mr. Trump’s presence, his team, and the trade tensions between the U.S. and China that he creates, which surely have their purposes.

There was a time when everything seemed calm, coin prices were soaring, and suddenly I read that Mr. Trump announced he would increase tariffs on imports from China, and Bitcoin shot up like a rocket, but his team had quietly accumulated assets before he hit send on the Tweet, while altcoins went haywire. I don't know if it's about making America great again or making Trump's wallet great again.

But it didn't stop there; Mr. Trump often “drops hints” half-jokingly, saying the U.S. should have its own digital currency and then claiming that cryptocurrency must be tightly controlled because it could be used for terrorism. Every time he opens his mouth, the market feels like a roller coaster, and there's hardly time to catch a breath. Many times I think that professional traders must have a special “Trump Alert” to know when to exit early. Well, it’s an interesting season. Thankfully, I’m still able to earn a bit; otherwise, I would probably curse him until the end of his term.
