BAIT & SWITCH

 

“Beware of liquidity providers posing as lovable ducks!”

Nothing new here really, as we all know LP’s are nothing but thieves … Turnkey’s,

though, take the proverbial cake … after playing nice for a few weeks as they

came on board around December 1 with excellent bid/offer spreads, they’ve

morphed into some of the worst spreads on the planet … today’s rather dull

session in crypto still sees a BTC spread at $30 - $70+, & ETH between $3 - $5

… and while BTC at around $30 is acceptable [not nearly ideal], having it jump all

over the place between $30 & $70 is bullshit, cuz once you click the button your

fill is gonna be at the high offer when buying, and the low bid when selling, and

you’re more than likely to see the “mystery tick” than not … and so, I feel like

they’ve “baited & switched” us into first believing they were competitive, when in

fact they actually have had no intention of providing first rate crypto trading

conditions … today simply embarrassing, offering spread rates at levels that

would make Vito Corleone blush.


Gold on the other hand, seeing the moronic “Chuckleheads” buying with

abandon in the Asian session, only to see new lows once in the U.S. session on

some crypto weakness, and then back to the middle … and today ends up a

“doji” [so far] on the daily charts, with lackluster action once the money

disappeared down the rathole … thanks “Chuckleheads”, you did it again with

FUBAR trading tactics, and in the process made the day a worthless bag of

chop.


We spent part of the trading day, from the European open with BTC trying to

behave, and if Turnkey could keep the stupid spread at $30 or lower, given the

volatility I could trade it … but no, can’t do that cuz there’s too much grifting

going on and money to steal with crypto madness … and there’s no way in hell

I’m paying $50 or $70 to trade BTC … screw that, we’re not here to hand these

assclowns money for nothing … be competitive or fucking go home! … and as

bad as BTC can get, their efforts in ETH are simply pathetic, wanting upwards

of $5 per ETH … yea, good luck with that when most of the crypto world is

paying between $0.70 - $1.25 right now to trade ETH … no bigee, just 400% over

everybody else is all, but I’m not supposed to think about that.


So, tried to trade BTC, but couldn’t, and gold never got into buy territory the

entire day from the European open … so, no trades in anything for the Turnkey

PAMM / MAM … and over at PHEMEX, some trades where we’re UP

FRACTIONALLY for “The Syndicate” … very tough conditions in crypto today,

with lots of very quick moves and plenty of moving sideways before the next

mini explosion … hopefully better tomorrow.


Outta here early today … I’m full steam ahead! … Onward & Upward!!
