End Of Week Wrap-Up
First week of Bifrost is in the books and it’s been good to be back in the room with some of you. Truth is we watched a lot of winners this week instead of trading them. That changes. It changes as everyone gets their feet wet with the system and starts thinking through trades as far as Heimdall pushes you to.
That’s not to say we didn’t trade winners because of course we did. OKLO was 100% gain today, OPEN was 400% yesterday. Both simply called by Heimdall and were green holds almost the whole way.
One thing that’s easy to gloss over is that Heimdall is as much about limiting losses as finding plays. It gives you a framework to operate inside and tells you, in plain terms, where the play is invalidated. Like I said in VC, part of why I went this direction is to get us out of the business of “calling the shot.” When you call it, you own it, you get attached to it, and attachment is where the bad decisions come from. It’s hard to be objective about a play you called. It’s easy to be objective about one you didn’t. With Heimdall, nobody in this room is spending the day on the heavy research. We’re ingesting it and filtering it together.
As you have time this weekend, think through what you’ve seen and open tickets. Features you think are missing go in Feature Requests - Valhalla, bugs go in Support - Valhalla.
Foot On The Gas
The server is still waking up. Development is not. Over the weekend:
- The first major model update for Heimdall. Fixes several known issues we found this week and makes a substantial upgrade to the model’s capability.
- Institutional news sources. I acquired access today to a feed carrying analyst upgrades and downgrades, CNBC, Reuters, and two private institutional newswires. It also carries real ticker fields for PRNewswire and Globe Newswire, so we’re no longer parsing tickers out of press releases in code. Better news means better arcs, and it adds a key missing component: Heimdall waking up the moment an analyst rating changes around a catalyst like earnings.
- Bugs and plumbing. Several of the open bugs, plus large changes to the Positions integration, Arc comments, (attachments for flywoman) and more.
This Is Only The Beginning
Go look at the Heimdall Hall of Fame again: Heimdall Hall of Fame
The goal right now is simple: get the people I built this for into the room while I tune it against real usage. Bifrost was built to have eyes on it. Catalysts worked best when the room was full and everyone was contributing, and that is where I’m driving this. If you’re still in touch with someone who left, or who doesn’t know they have access, send them this. It’s been years in the making. Don’t let them miss it. Server is wide open, I don’t care what was said, how salty they are, take the invite and come look at this. It’s right here: https://discord.gg/N6BwMUq89
And After That
Soon I’ll be trading alongside the community again as we open the gates, for the first time in years, to a wider audience. Bifrost will bring new people in, and we’ll build something stronger and more profitable than any iteration of this community has achieved before. Membership stays capped, like I said. I have no interest in building a second WSB. I’m building Renaissance Technologies for a select few. A Viking roleplay version of the Freemasons.
The vision is playing out, and we’ll look back on these weeks fondly. I’m not building this community back to what it was. I’m building it to what it will be. Afterhours will be a celebration again. Trading-floor is already full of green again, BUT THIS TIME IT DOESN’T GO AWAY. You can already see it: three of us traded today the way it used to take a full server to do. IMAGINE what this looks like with the room full. THIS IS THE VISION. This is the last iteration of Valhalla, because this one doesn’t die. It’s the mic drop. The next big play retail finds is going to pump positions we ALREADY HAVE, because we’re on a different level now. Get active, get commenting, get reading.
Every challenge I’ve ever run finished with a win rate above 80%. Nobody takes this more seriously than I do. That’s what the year and a half was for. So when I say it again, the right bet is that I’m telling you the truth: GREATEST. TRADING. COMMUNITY. IN. EXISTENCE.
Oh and yeah, I’m thinkin’ I’m back. Rest up, we’re back at it Monday.
