This guy is smart though, we make good money at our full time gigs so he's had investment money for many years. Recently, he's invested $70k in Amazon for two days and made $2500 off selling at the right time.
Do you think his mind is geared towards quick sells versus hype and long term bitcoin rallying?
Or is he onto something?

This ^^^^
For many years -> when using a combination of historical charting, watching trends and the paying attention to announcements in the news all made sense, I was trading EUR/USD currencies ninja style on a 5000 EUR FX account. Nothing was held for short or long term. As soon as I saw a net gain of 1-2-3 PIPs, I was making the transaction. Going on memory the typical gain was 40-120 USD each transaction. I repeated that multiple times a day. The goal was to close a lot more transactions with a gain than a loss.
