God Candles Gone Wild!

God Candles Gone Wild!

For most of history, when fire streaked across the night sky, people lost their minds.

The Romans thought Caesar had punched his way into heaven. The Anglo-Saxons saw Halley’s Comet in 1066 and figured it was God’s giant flaming sword coming to put them out of their misery. The Aztecs saw these “smoking stars” as a sign disaster was imminent. (And, unfortunately, they were mostly right.)

Everyone agreed these things mattered. No one agreed on why. And they looked random, terrifying, and entirely beyond comprehension.

Then, of course, came astronomy.

Suddenly, the chaos wasn’t chaos at all.

Those fiery signs in the heavens weren’t random. They were predictable. Chartable. You could track them, map them, and tell the future just by knowing when they’d show up.

Right now, a similar shift is happening in investing.

And our very own Greg Guenthner (known in the Paradigm office as “Gunner”) understood it—and how to play it—long before everyone else.

God Candles Gone Wild!

The term “God Candle”—a sudden, explosive green pillar on a chart—is a fairly new addition to trader slang.

And for good reason.

Historically, these moves were relatively rare birds. Beautiful, terrifying, unforgettable—but rare.

Back then, you might see one in a blue moon in a major stock.

 → Apple in 1984 surged more than 60% around the Macintosh launch.
 → Volkswagen in 2008 skyrocketed 147% in a single day during a legendary short squeeze.
 → Sarepta Therapeutics in 2012 doubled overnight on a biotech breakthrough.

For most, they were like ancient comet-sightings. Freakish events burned into memory.

But that’s changed.

What used to feel like irregular anomalies have, in the past ten years or so, become a relatively routine feature of modern markets.

Thanks to algorithms, zero-commission trading, social media, and oceans of liquidity, God Candles are multiplying like rabbits. They’re showing up monthly—sometimes weekly—and they’re hitting harder than ever.

And yet…

Most investors still treat them the way the ancients treated fiery omens in the sky. They stare, marvel, maybe post about it—but they don’t understand it.

They assume it’s random. Divine chaos. Blessings from the market gods. Beyond human comprehension. Unpredictable.

They’re wrong.

The God Candle Whisperer

The smartest traders eventually realized God Candles weren’t random acts of divine favor. They were more like comets—rare, dazzling, but driven by hidden forces.

Institutions loading up, liquidity stampeding, momentum building until the breakout came.

Gunner saw the pattern before most: God Candles are predictable. Every God Candle repeats the same 3-2-1 sequence. What looks like a miracle is really just gravity at work—order hiding in plain sight.

And here’s where it gets interesting…

In his latest videos, Gunner’s been pounding the table on Ethereum.

He believes the green candle gods could soon smile down on ETH in a way few (not even Tom Lee) expects:

  • Step 3: Momentum building on institutional inflows, ETF anticipation, and AI-driven settlement demand.
  • Step 2: A long, tight consolidation coil, pressing hard against resistance.
  • Step 1: The breakout. The ignition point.

If he’s right, Ethereum isn’t just another asset climbing a hype cycle…

It’s a coiled spring.

And when it snaps, the bar won’t just be green. It’ll be biblical.

BUT…

Ethereum is only one of the God Candle opportunities Greg is tracking right now. He’s watching a whole list of setups across AI, crypto, metals, and more—each one primed with the same launch-code conditions.

Everything you need to know is in his latest presentation—including a ticker flashing right now.
