I'm subbed to a handful (Jimmy Song, Dan Held, etc) but I'm sure I'm missing some good ones.
Shameless plug: I've rolled my own using Mailbrew here.
Not a newsletter but I’ve been watching Krown’s Crypto cave for trading technical analysis on Youtube. He’s pretty much called the sideways action of the last two months. Wish I had found his channel sooner instead of blindly following to all of the moon boys on twitter as he has a much more measured view that would be helpful for anyone looking to dollar cost average smarter and avoid buying tops.

What do you get from price analysis? Conviction, market timing tips, or something else?

It’s mostly TA porn which was more fun when things were going to the moon. Im in the doghouse a little bit after buying too much at the recent top so the wifey doesn’t want me buying more. I would like to sneak in a couple more buys but I’ll feel more confident when I’m more sure we’ve hit a macro term low.

Yeah I can feel the hypnotic pull of that stuff too, particularly when its good news lol, but was curious if it was something else.

Fascinating to see the disconnect between fundamentals of a crypto/stock and the price action created by market movers and how it seems to follow so many mathematical patterns. Makes you want to be a trader but then you remember 90%+ or whatever just lose money and the bigger market makers are out there with the big money and algorithms designed to liquidate you and steal your bitcoin. Alluring but probably more stressful than a day job.

It is really entertaining to hear people weave plausible narratives explaining price especially with on-chain metrics. It's also comforting - someone possibly knows why these things are happening and it's not so complex that it's practically random.

I've found the problem with on-chain analytics is that it seems to be almost all moon-boy price action porn. No matter what happens (outside of large shift in bitcoin to exchanges) it's used as an excuse to justify 1 million dollar BTC by X date. Certainly works to drive clicks on youtube, along with the O-face on the thumbnail. Actual TA seems more grounded in reality as you can sort of understand how the biggest market makers are strategically moving price action on the way up and down to bear and bull trap people and steal their bitcoin in the most profitable way possible. Hedge funds etc have huge advantage until they end up on the wrong side of a /r/wallstreetbets play haha.

Blockstream's, Kraken delivers good reports. ETC Group is quite special. Lightning Labs has one and Lightning Markets.
