Today I put a real site on it.</p>\n\n<h2 id=\"why-this-site\">Why this site</h2>\n\n<p>I needed a place to write that wasn’t Twitter, wasn’t a private notes app, and wasn’t whatever the latest Substack-shaped thing was. I trade with my own money, I build my own tools, and I want a public record of decisions I made under real uncertainty. Writing them down at the time keeps me honest.</p>\n\n<p>Most of what lands here will be <strong>trader notes</strong> — what I’m watching, what I bought, what I sold, what worked, what didn’t, and the patterns I keep noticing. Occasionally: writing about how I work, what I’m building, and the stack of tools I use day-to-day.</p>\n\n<p>Nothing here is investment advice. I’m writing about my own practice as a record of what I’m doing, not telling you what to do. Markets can take any amount of money you give them.</p>\n\n<h2 id=\"what-up-on-volume-means\">What “up on volume” means</h2>\n\n<p>If you’ve spent any time looking at weekly stock charts, you’ve probably noticed: the biggest moves are paired with the biggest volume bars. Volume confirms intent. A breakout on weak volume gets sold; a breakout on heavy volume keeps going. It’s one of those things that’s almost too simple to teach but takes years to actually trust.</p>\n\n<p>I named the domain <em>uponvolume</em> because every trade I’m proud of has been one where the chart said <em>yes, finally</em>, and the volume said <em>me too</em>. And every trade I regret has been one where I ignored the second half of that sentence.</p>\n\n<h2 id=\"whats-next\">What’s next</h2>\n\n<p>I’ll post when I have something to say. No schedule, no email list nag. If you want to subscribe, <a href=\"/rss.xml\">RSS</a> and <a href=\"/feed.json\">JSON feed</a> both work; they always will.</p>\n\n<p>See you on the next one.</p>\n",
