Codex VIII was published on Nov 22, the day after the bottom printed. BTC and ETH long setups were shared — and they played out exactly as logged. If you followed, you saw the rhythm confirm in real time.
A brief reminder — every major move this cycle was logged before consensus:
- July 9 — The Final Wave → BTC breakout next day
- Aug 22 — ETH Speaks → ETH peaked at 4,955 two days later
- Oct 2 — Uptober Begins → BTC hit 126k four days later
- Nov 22 — Codex VIII → Bounce mapped, bottom printed day before
As I mentioned in Codex VIII, it served as a preview of something I’m considering building: the premium version, Codex Brief. Let’s recap how it did:
📊 Proof: Codex VIII in Action
- HL long entry logged Nov 22 — no hindsight, just real‑time rhythm recognition.
- BTC → GP → HL sequence confirmed within days.
- ETH followed the same structural pivot.
- Altcoins mirrored local GP setups

All setups, entries, and results — captured in real time and archived in one image.
Top row:
1️⃣ BTC/ETH HL entry (Nov 22) — shared in Codex VIII
2️⃣ Result snapshot (Nov 26) — both played out
3️⃣ Private journal — 2nd & 3rd entries, same rhythm continued
Bottom row:
4️⃣ Altcoin HL setups (Nov 22) — not shared, but Brief‑worthy
5️⃣ Result snapshot (Nov 26) — setups confirmed
6️⃣ Altcoin results from Dec 5 (Dec 10) — 2nd & 3rd entries, same rhythm continued
This is Codex rhythm in motion — structure repeats, entries land, results archive themselves. No hype, just timestamps.
📌 Note: If you took the longs, the ride may extend toward the B peak (~60 days from the low). Expect a local pullback toward 0.786 before continuation — rhythm rarely skips its retrace.
For the macro context — bounce and LH sequences — see Codex VIII itself. That post served as the full structural preview. This follow‑up is focused on proof and results.
📈 Codex Execution So Far in December
Dec trades: Wins: 13 | Losses: 0 | Win‑ratio: 100% | Total performance: Max +33.9R / Realized +14R
Another bounce, another pivot caught within days. Bull trend, bear trend — Codex doesn’t care. The rhythm repeats: trades every month, structure confirms, and the pivots keep landing.
I still don’t fully understand why it works this consistently… but the logs don’t lie. Month after month, the system just repeats the same song.
✨ Codex Brief Preview
Substack will likely be the home for Codex Brief. Not scheduled noise, not weekly filler — just 2–3 high‑value posts when the market demands documentation:
- Verified HL/GP setups before the move
- Journal insights and reflections pre‑consensus
- Pattern logic that has repeated every month since July
In short: the same pivots you see later on Hive — delivered earlier, cleaner, and curated.
Every Codex post since July has carried journal snapshots. Month after month, the rhythm repeats. This isn’t opinion — it’s archived fact.
All links to the Codex series are collected in Codex VIII. Check the timeline yourself — every major move was nailed within days.
Subscribers don’t get opinions; they get verified setups, HL/GP sequences, and structural pivots — shared in real time, before the crowd sees them. It’s proof, not hype.
🧱 Building Codex Brief — Why It Takes Time (and Why Your Feedback Matters Now)
Codex Brief isn’t something I want to rush out the door.
For this to work long-term — structurally, legally, and operationally — I need to set up the right framework: company structure, publishing pipeline, delivery format, and archival system.
Launching it too early would create pressure before the foundation is ready. By sharing this post now, I’m doing two things intentionally:
- Proof is delivered. Codex VIII shows exactly what Brief will offer.
- The product is forming. The structure is being built piece by piece.
- You get to shape it with me. Feedback now influences what Brief becomes.
- Launch happens when the system is solid — most likely early next year.
This gives time to build it properly — not rushed, not noisy, but clean, consistent, and sustainable. And while the structure is being prepared, your feedback now is what guides the final design.
❤️ Why I’m Building Codex Brief
I’m not a whale. I’m a disciplined dolphin — 1% risk, compounding consistency. The joy has always been in sharing: documenting rhythm, leaving timestamps, and proving structure in real time.
If I can share that insight and, in return, gain the freedom to work 100% on something I love, I’d rather do that than chase a “normal job.”
Codex Brief is about value → monetization → freedom. Value for readers, freedom for me to keep archiving rhythm — clean, consistent, and sustainable.
📣 Your voice matters
To shape the Brief into something truly useful:
– Do you prefer pure setups?
– Macro structural roadmaps?
– Journal excerpts with reasoning?
– Longer deep‑dives?
– And what would feel like a fair monthly subscription for this type of actionable, verified insight?
Drop a comment, DM, or even just react. Every bit of feedback helps refine this into actionable rhythm recognition, not hype.

📜 Codex Manifesto
I don’t make calls. I build an archive.
I don’t guess direction. I define structure and let time confirm.
I write while the rhythm is uncomfortable, before consensus exists.
When consensus wakes, I point to the timestamp.
I operate on rhythm, not price — pattern memory, not prediction.
Codex is not content for views. It is proof, archived in real time.
✨ Codex Punchline
Hive built the record. Substack continues the chronology. Codex Brief is not prediction — it is recognition, archived before belief.
🕰️ Timeline of Credibility (Archive Highlights)
2020 → BTC bottom at 7.5k — hash‑ribbon reclaim
2021 → BTC 40k reclaim — alt expansion mapped weeks ahead
2022 → Bear‑market tracking — six bullish divergence bounces (+50–150%)
2023 → BTC 16k bottom — alt reversals logged pre‑consensus (+100% in 3 months)
2024 → September reversals (+100% on multiple assets)
👉 All macro links for 2020–2024 can be found in The Final Wave.
2025 → Codex series from July — month by month phases
👉 All links for the 2025 Codex series — are collected in Codex VIII.
These aren’t opinions — they are public receipts. The archive itself is the credibility.

Incredible, 13 wins so far for the month of December is a great way to start. I only caught the SUI trade even though same pattern was recognized on other top majors too. By the way, what does GP stand for? And how do you make the decision of taking most of this similar trades at the same time? I tend to think if these trades are similar, I only take a few of them to limit downside if/when probability doesn't pan out.
With regards to Codex Brief, I like the core structure of it, speaks to my practical self, there's a rhythm/pattern that reveals itself and trades are made mostly based on that irrespective of the feel of the market, i.e bear/bull/choppy sentiment.
Not much preference for pure setups personally. Always prefer to understand the whys(and hows) than just what to do. Big yes to all the rest until the last one, I'm not knowledgeable on how the pricing works for such but given that it's trading, one would be able to make more than what they're paying for with a few to a couple of trades. Of course, it will also depend on position size too.
Thank you sir!
GP = Golden Pocket. The classic fib zone (0.618–0.65) where the market often takes a breath before the next move. In Codex it’s part of the HL/GP sequences that repeat month after month.
On taking many trades at once: It’s not about chasing isolated setups. Once the bottom is set and structure confirms, the market itself says it’s time:
BTC pivot gives the signal
ETH confirms the rhythm
Alts echo the same melody
That’s why cluster entries make sense. I go broad because the whole map points the same way. I don’t need to dissect each scalp; the macro roadmap does the heavy lifting. Codex shows the rhythm before the move, so picking setups becomes straightforward.
And to your broader point: the idea with Codex Brief is basically the same as what I’ve been doing on Hive — documenting the market rhythm before it moves. Every post since July has caught the pivots, and Brief will continue that: archiving the rhythm and showing the structural roadmap. Tier 1 isn’t just “macro why,” it also includes the setups and bounce zones aligned with context. As in Codex8. Tier 2 is the bonus layer with my own extra executions and scalps. As in this follow up. That’s why I think Tier 1 fits you perfectly, since you value the macro frameworks most. I’d love to hear which macro elements you think are most important to capture going forward.
Oh right. I understand that part now having known the meaning as Golden Pocket. Always a key area to watch.
Makes sense! I didn't see the structural framework moving in a certain direction that influences everything on top of it more or less moving in the same direction. A way simpler approach than having to analyse individual setups, a step back closer to the source.
In terms of macro framework/elements, I think the basics will be fine, mainly BTC and alt majors structurally.
Perfect — BTC + majors as the backbone makes sense. That’s exactly what Tier 1 will anchor: rhythm, pivots, and a couple of setups each month in macro context. Thanks for clarifying — this helps shape the Brief. 😊
Exactly. Same framework played out during November — especially phase 2 and phase 4. Some setups were published in Codex 8, others in this follow‑up.
Attaching the phase breakdown here — shows how structure guided the entire month.
I'll have to reread this post with a fresh mind... a lot of concepts are still beyond me. And I must have missed the previous posts. That'll give me something to read tonight 😀
If I understand correctly, I'll keep you informed. So if you don't hear from me, it's because my brain cell has fried 😂
Have a great day
Great to see you here, heroldius — thanks for jumping into the Codex thread! Codex is meant to be a living archive of the market rhythm, so every new perspective adds value. Curious what caught your attention most in this post?
The word “Codex”... Could @digi-me be Leonardo or a reincarnation? Just kidding 😀
I'm curious about things I don't understand. And predicting the evolution of crypto using charts seems really interesting. Although I find it very difficult to sell, I haven't sold any HIVE since the beginning except to “play” (and I mean play, not invest) at Splinterlands.
I'll continue reading your Codex series of posts, maybe I'll stop accumulating.
Haha so the word Codex caught your attention. 😀
Great to hear your perspective. Codex isn’t about telling anyone to buy or sell — it’s about showing how rhythm repeats and documenting pivots before consensus. If you keep reading through the series, you’ll see how each post builds on the last. Curious to hear what stands out most for you as you go deeper. Did you read any of the previous ones? You find the full timeline in the previous post https://ecency.com/hive-167922/@digi-me/codex-viii-another-trick-the
I'm quite slow as a boy... as the Italian proverb says: Qui Va Piano, Va Sano 😀
Thanks a lot! 😊
🌀Tagging @zekepickleman @ph1102 @mypathtofire @nenio @tobetada @iyanpol12 @libertycrypto27 @takhar 🙏. Even if Codex Brief isn’t something you’ll use yourself, I’d still love your feedback. What do you think of the format? What would make it most useful? Every bit of input helps me build this right from the start — if it should come to fruition.
