If someone told me last year that I'd earn over $100,000 trading crypto in just one month - without hiring a team or writing a single line of code - I would've laughed. But in May 2025, that’s exactly what happened. I didn’t buy a trading course. I didn’t join a mastermind. I just used ChatGPT.
Not passively, though. I spent years dabbling in crypto, reading charts, trying to "time the market." What changed was that I finally had a tool that could make sense of overwhelming information - and keep me emotionally grounded.
ChatGPT wasn’t some magic money machine. It was a thinking partner. And it turned out to be the most consistent one I’ve ever had.
Crypto is chaotic. News, memes, scams, breakthroughs - everything hits at once, all the time. I used to spend 3–4 hours a day scanning Twitter threads, Reddit, YouTube, and CoinMarketCap just to feel "up to date." But it left me more confused than informed.
When GPT-4 Turbo launched, I gave it a shot. At first, I asked basic questions:
“What’s the difference between RUNE and GMX?”
“Why is BONK trending?”
“Is this token a rug pull?”
Then I started experimenting. I gave it context about my portfolio, my goals, and my tolerance for risk. The results were shockingly coherent - and often better than any YouTube “expert” I’d followed.
Instead of telling me what to buy, ChatGPT helped me understand how I think. That made me a better trader.
I didn’t have a multi-monitor war room. Just a MacBook, a second screen with TradingView charts, and a notebook.
Each morning, I’d open ChatGPT and ask it three questions:
What are the top five market stories today?
Which of my tokens are behaving unusually?
Are there patterns similar to previous pumps or dumps?
ChatGPT wasn’t connected to real-time APIs like TradingView, so I fed it price data manually or pasted in headlines. It contextualized everything. Sometimes it pointed out things I missed - like how a small spike in SOL's volume coincided with a Korean exchange listing. I wouldn’t have noticed that.
The real magic was in the journaling. Every evening, I asked ChatGPT to reflect with me.
“Why did I hesitate to buy that breakout?”
“Was my exit based on strategy or nerves?”
“Am I following my own plan?”
These questions kept me accountable. I didn't win every trade, but I stuck to my rules, and that’s what created profit.
People assume I was flipping meme coins every hour. I wasn’t. Over 30 days, I made twelve trades - that’s it. Some were swing trades, others lasted just a few days.
The biggest winners weren’t even the most hyped. I bought WIF (dog-themed coin) before its parabolic run and sold at 3x. I caught JASMY at $0.014 and exited at $0.028. But what really made the difference was stacking small wins and avoiding panic losses.
I almost FOMO’d into a scam token that was trending one night. It had a flashy name, insane volume, and influencers all over X. But when I asked ChatGPT to assess its risk, it flagged inconsistencies in the contract, shady founder history, and a weird spike in holders. I skipped it.
That saved me more than I made on some trades.
Let me be blunt: GPT-4 didn’t “predict” prices. It didn’t tell me “buy this, sell that.” That’s not the point.
What it did was:
Synthesize chaos into calm
Challenge my impulsive decisions
Help me explain my own thinking
Show me holes in my risk model
Give me a second opinion when I doubted myself
It was like trading with a coach - one that didn’t sleep, didn’t brag, and didn’t panic.
That mental clarity? Worth more than the profits, honestly.
I tried testing other models alongside ChatGPT - Claude 3 and Gemini. Claude is great for longform reflection. Gemini had solid recall on Reddit and market sentiment.
But the only platform where I could use them all in one place was Chatronix.
It’s like a cockpit for modern AI use. I could:
Compare Claude’s response to GPT-4 in real time
Ask Grok to summarize crypto debates on X
Track which model gave me better clarity on macro trends
All without juggling tabs, tokens, or billing accounts.
For anyone serious about using AI to gain an edge - not just for trading, but any kind of decision-making - Chatronix is a game-changer.
I wouldn't change much. But I’d trust my gut even more.
The one time I ignored GPT’s nudge - buying a Layer 2 token after a weak retest - I got stopped out in a flash crash. Not catastrophic, but unnecessary.
What I’d definitely do next time:
Use Claude for emotional journaling daily
Let Gemini handle headline filtering overnight
Build a small community of AI traders to share prompts and feedback
Because truth is, trading with AI gets lonely. Efficient, but isolating. That’s the only downside I felt.
I didn’t discover a loophole or secret indicator. I just combined something simple (AI) with something difficult (discipline). ChatGPT helped me hold myself to a standard I rarely met alone.
That $100K month? It came from months of failing quietly, learning slowly, and finally applying AI the right way.
So no, GPT-4 didn’t make me rich. It made me consistent. And that’s even better.
Thinking of trying this for yourself?
