Updates on what we're building, and thoughts on trading the right way.

RSI reads momentum, not price: what the number is built from, why 30 and 70 became the default, and the one thing it can never tell you on its own.

Japan's central bank and the Eurosystem are both building blockchain settlement for stocks and bonds this year, on licensed venues and in central bank money, not on crypto exchanges. It's not a one-country story, it's a pattern, and it's arriving on exactly the kind of regulated infrastructure Aurono has always said it would need before touching anything beyond crypto.

Pete Blaber's own near-death story from Delta Force selection: exhausted and alone, he mistook a shape in the dark for a bear and jumped off a cliff to escape it. It was a pig. What that says about deciding without context, in general, in investing, and in how Aurono ended up built.

I bought ENA manually, no rules, no plan, and watched the position sink about 66%. Four months after handing my position to Aurono, the paper loss is roughly half of what it was. Not because the price recovered, but because the average cost basis did the work.
August 20, 2026
Pete Blaber couldn't sleep while planning a mission, so he asked why. The answer: the mind works in three phases, saturate, incubate, illuminate. What that means for decisions in general, for investing, and for how Aurono's Lab and shadow mode ended up shaped the way they are.

Nassim Taleb's Fooled by Randomness has a confession: knowing a result is statistical noise doesn't stop you from feeling it, so he built a rule that keeps the number away from him until it means something. Aurono runs on the same admission.

Annie Duke's Thinking in Bets revives an old idea for beating bad decisions before they happen: the Ulysses contract. Aurono is built on the same principle.
August 10, 2026
Annie Duke's Thinking in Bets calls it resulting: judging a decision by how it turned out, not how the decision was made. Another gem: once one branch of the tree becomes reality, the others disappear too, taking with them the context you'd need to judge yourself fairly.

Daniel Kahneman's Noise studies judges, doctors, and insurance underwriters, and keeps landing on the same finding: a simple model of your own past decisions usually beats you making the call live. That's the whole argument for rules, and it goes well beyond trading.

There's one switch in Aurono you don't flip on day one: Go Live. Here's how shadow mode let me watch my strategy on real prices for weeks, and the moment I knew I could trust it with real money.

Cryptohopper is a capable, Amsterdam-built platform. It's also a monthly subscription. An honest look at renting your crypto tools versus owning them once, and where Aurono fits.

A friend read the ONDO case study and said he couldn't wait for a mobile app. I get it - but a phone app would quietly undo the thing Aurono is for. Here's why the missing app is a decision, not a gap.
June 11, 2026
Over three weeks ONDO fell more than 20%. A patient Aurono Start strategy still ended the window net positive - because its average cost base followed the price down, and a few guardrails kept it from ever selling at a loss.

Low price doesn't mean room to grow. The number that actually matters when you're sizing up a tiny token, and why most '100×' messages collapse the moment you check it.
June 4, 2026
Someone in our crypto chat is bullish on a coin. I used to open TradingView and try to time the entry - stressful, often wrong. Now I run it through the Lab and let the rule do the entering.

A real Aurono Start strategy on NEAR waited for price to cross its ACB, then captured eight trades across twelve days of volatility - every sell near a local peak, every buy near a local trough.

Dollar-cost averaging is the right answer for most people, most of the time. Here's the question it can't quite answer.
May 28, 2026
A buy strategy without a sell strategy is half a strategy. Why selling is the harder half - and what a real sell rule looks like.
May 26, 2026
For years, the moment my salary hit the account I raced to the laptop with a prepared spreadsheet, deposited, and fired fifteen orders before the market 'moved away from me'. The Rebalancer ended that ritual.

A conversation about algorithms, late-night notifications, and why he bought more during the crash.
May 19, 2026
I wanted to look at graphs less and be with the people I love more. Day trading wasn't for me. Pure DCA didn't feel right either. The gap in between is what I built.
May 14, 2026
A reflection on installing Aurono Start at our first five beta testers, migrating their PoC strategies through the Lab, and the quiet moment when the work started to feel real.

Aurono isn't a trading platform. It's an investment tool for people who have better things to do than watch charts.
March 1, 2026
