The Citadel Pepe Meme

One man. Being. Striving.

THE PURPOSE

Market theory & research that leads to wealth.

slux Labs is a research and writing project founded by me, slux, focused on understanding how markets and capital behave in real conditions. An accountability project. The work draws from discretionary trading, value investing, and long-term observation across crypto, equities, and global markets. To not stagnate. To play to win.

The work centers on market structure, liquidity, incentives, attention flows and risk. Rather than reacting to headlines or micro short-term narratives, the focus is on how capital actually moves, how attention concentrates, and why similar patterns repeat over time. Ideas are developed through direct market participation, probabilistic reasoning, and continuous observation across cycles.

Coverage spans crypto, equities, and broader market dynamics, with an emphasis on capital allocation and decision-making under uncertainty. Alongside market analysis, slux Labs occasionally shares studies, personal observations, and reflections — primarily market-related, sometimes extending into philosophy and life.

"What's a sl**?"

About me

I am a full-time crypto trader, hedging his human incompetence through spot equities, while farming any yield available with cash-reserves (as an additional hedge), and occasionally posting on YouTube when there's time over. Mediocre childhood, mediocre socioeconomic status, had my fun with friends during early teenage years. Played video games, did kid activities, etc. In other words, I'm just like any other human being on planet earth.


My YouTube channel serves as an unfiltered journal to my life and journey. Fragments on capital, consciousness, and the quiet 'complexities' entailed by the 'art' of life. A lot of yapping. Call it philosophy, call it ranting, call it self-development, call it whatever you want. In a matter of a decade or two, I'll be a billionaire — and again, the YouTube channel is the visual journey for that.

Unironically, not in spite of the abstract nature of trading, but precisely because of it, as a trader (and investor) having tangible goals is imperative and proves to be a benefit in more than one way. Both inside and outside of the markets. But ultimately, it all comes down to knowing what to strive for, and what to expect to get there. Not crashing your portfolio, nor mental health. Study dopamine baselines, and try to find the correlation between your PnL graphs and trading behaviour while on balance, or tipped towards pleasure/pain, and see how that affects you.


When you see anything additional appear above your target, see that as a plus, and add it to the basket, not as a deviation to the game plan that you need to perpetuate. Don't rewire that as the percentages you strive for, but rather as addition to the "starting capital", that is one of the core principles the growth that stems from the research and explorations on this site is based around: finding and fine-tuning an edge, and extracting money with that asymmetry when the opportunities present themselves while keeping your tail-risk in static control, and low. In other words, only deviating in percentages to the upside, but keeping the mean-fluctuations the same.
