THE FIRST CASUALTY OF WAR IS THE TRUTH

 

“Are you a wanted fugitive of the “thought police”? … liberalism is a disease!!?”

I’m old enough to remember when the “fourth estate” [that would be the MSM for

you dumbed down Biden voters] held truth to power and went after government

corruption, malfeasance, and pure stupidity … now, all we have is propaganda

bundled up as North Korean news, whose only job is to try and make you think

everything government does is just dandy and for your own best interest … when

the press eventually sides with government in taking away all of your freedoms,

cuz that’s the real objective here, it’ll be too late to do anything about it … but by

all means, keep voting for idiot Libtards, who not only hate you cuz you’re a

“rube” and can’t be trusted to “think right”, but you’re dumb enough to keep

voting for them so they know you’re stupid and will accept anything, no matter

how dumb it is or against your own beneficial interest.


“Every hour that goes by, and another bank doesn’t go under, is a “victory” for

stocks!” … I read this yesterday and couldn’t stop laughing for about an hour

… that’s the “official” mantra now being floated by the Goebbels Institute arm of

Biden Communists who implore you not to make things worse by making their

boss look like an idiot … NEWS FLASH: “Biden doesn’t need any help to look

like an idiot.”


Can you spare $54 billion? … I just need a small favor for a while, as my

“Sugar Daddy” [that would be Saudi Arabia investors] has decided to cut me off

and not give me a further advance on my allowance … can you believe that?

…thank goodness the SNB [Swiss National Bank] turned the CNTRL-P machine

on and pumped up a small but helpful token of appreciation … I mean, you know,

I can pick up $54 billion practically anywhere, but it’s nice to have “friends” in

high places … “SO!, EVERYTHING IS FINE NOW!” … [Bwahahaha!] … so here’s

what the corrupt SNB did for Credit Suisse [CS] … financial “scumbaggery &

fuckery” taken to new heights … it “loaned” them money to buy back their

deeply discounted bonds on the open market at pennies on the dollar, and retired

the bonds at “par” on their books, thus generating instant & immediate profit

that they now call “capital” … voila!, instant capital! … what a fucking joke.


Sadly, that’s the answer all of the Elitists around the globe buy into … throw

massive amounts of CNTRL-P money into any problem and hope beyond hope it

goes away … well, at least until you’re no longer an Apparatchik and the mob

can’t blame you any longer … by the time SHTF, you’re comfortably parked in

that corner office of Squid or JPM with a 7 digit “consulting fee salary” giving 10

minute speeches at company sponsored chicken dinners for the sales force

… cuz if there’s one thing you can absolutely count on, it’s this … at some point

in the future, whoever is responsible for floating a corrupt, inefficient, negligent,

and wasteful bank named CS the largesse it needed to not go under [and it still

may], will end up in said corner office hitting it big cuz of the “quid pro quo”

.,, nobody will report on it, and nobody will remember … except me, I know

exactly how this shit works!


This is exactly what gold, and especially Bitcoin, seek to remedy … take fiat out

of the hands of the corrupt POLS, who create inflation and destroy wealth for

short term political & personal gain, and allow nobody to manipulate

counterparty risk cuz there ain’t none! … this truth is like showing Dracula the

cross, and throwing him a clove of garlic at the same time … POLS &

Apparatchiks shriek in horror at the thought.


Well, it’s sunrise in New York, and cuz no banks have gone under since Europe

opened, “everything is fine now!” and “Stock Bellies” can rally so that the

trading arms of the still solvent banks can offload shit they bought from those

that panicked in the selloff, and folks can “sell low buy high” as the natural

course of events … rinse, repeat, this is how the “Stock Bellies” game is played,

and if the banks get in trouble, they just make a call to the appropriate central

bank, and not coincidentally some Apparatchik is suddenly at a microphone

and it’s “elevator up” time once again.


I am “tweaking” the v2.1 algorithm parameters, as the trading universe we now

trade in, that didn’t exist 10 days ago but does now and into the future, is now

moving markets at FASTER THAN the “speed of light”, rendering too many

buy/sell signals obsolete … “it’s there, and then it’s gone” … it’s always moved

fast, but if anything the latest world financial crisis developments highlight in

spades the value of “rumors” & bullshit Wall Street is infamous for … “trade first,

get details second … remembering, the he who panics first gets to panic again

later!” … this shit isn’t gonna stop, and is only gonna get worse … and the 2

main beneficiaries of this are gold & USDJPY … on the m5 HAS Indicator, change

the MA period to “2” … on the m1 HAS indicator, change the MA period to “4”

… this keeps the ratio of m5 to m1 at roughly 5:1, versus 4 something to 1 before,

but more importantly makes the signals a Helluva lot faster than before … when I

developed the algo, before the latest “crisis”, I didn’t think I needed to be this fast

cuz in a slower market environment “false positives” may sneak in … I don’t think

“slow” is something markets are gonna have to deal with again

… maybe occasionally, but not consistently … the world has forever changed.


Turning to today’s “Slots-O-Fun” inside the casino, never … I MEAN NEVER

… underestimate the ability of government to change the rules or alter the

playing field to make sure 1) banks make money so the “skim” keeps coming,

and 2) specs will get SCREWED ROYALLY following common sense trading, and

taking positions based on news headlines … and BINGO!, BANGO!, BOOM!, just

like that the approved government whores at JPM line up to “save” Republic

Bank from their $25 Billion capital hole … see my shocked face … and gold goes

“tapioca” faster than Biden’s brain not working … first you pull in all the

“Chumps”, then you take their money … nice work if you can get it.


Before that, Miss Gimpy got skewered on a gold fill, and I got to listen to her

scream, B.I. Itch, complain, and B.I. Itch some more dealing with Coinexx

… gold today simply a nightmare … panic up / panic down / “V” shaped bottoms

/ inverted “V” shape tops /// and the slippage simply awful … seriously, these

Asshats should be indicted, but tell me something I don’t already know? … I

think it’s pretty clear that, although it’s a new trading universe we’re in now, gold

isn’t the trading vehicle it appears … USDJPY a vastly superior scalping / short

term pair to trade, and the dynamics of the trade are pretty clear cut … 1) moves

in close correlation most of the time with the direction of yield in the 2 YR.

Treasury Note [direction, not range of PIPS] … 2)  if that’s the day’s game plan,

then “risk on / risk off” [RORO} takes over and moves in the “Spoos” will guide

YEN … gold shares some of this, but has a vastly different dynamic, even though

USDJPY & GOLD correlate well … just after the London Fix, I’ve switched my

primary focus to USDJPY … gold of course will remain in my crosshairs, but to

get me to trade it I’m gonna need to see excellent setups from the algorithm … for

every 20 we get from USDJPY, maybe gold gives you 1… without the slippage and

other associated horseshit LP’s are famous for … I’m not trying to play

“Whack-A-Mole” with the MT4, I’m just attempting to find the BEST pair that gives

us what we want from trading via the algorithm on a CONSISTENT basis … sure,

like I’ve said, there isn’t anything traded that rates 10 out of 10 … everything has

warts & blemishes, but nothing pisses me off more than slippage, and gold is

right at the top of that list.


How about a DOUBLE REVERSAL WITH HUGE RANGE for the day? … sure, why

not? … USDJPY giving out FREE plutonium balls … no need to jump out the

window, just take the lid off and wait 20 minutes … but from a short term trading

perspective, it’s hard to argue that USDJPY isn’t the best trading vehicle … I

thought gold was just as good … I thought wrong, and today proves it … of

course, since I switch over to USDJPY, it goes on a 3 hour straight up [off the m5]

blitzkrieg cuz JPM and others are saving Republic … short rates immediately

climb, “Stock Bellies” soar on the news that the world isn’t gonna end, and

USDJPY takes off and never looks back … well OK, tomorrow is another day, and

the way things now trade, every day is it’s own bull / bear market so tomorrow

could be vastly different. 


One thing for sure, though, is that the version 2.1 algorithm models short term

price behavior better than anything I’ve ever developed or created … and the

more bat shit crazy [BSC] a market becomes, the better the modeling

performance … all that’s needed is tight spread and as little slippage as possible

… gold sometimes fits that bill, but too many times doesn’t … USDJPY, unless

the BOJ is intervening, almost always is OK … no trades for the PAMM today

… gold completely “squirrely” the entire day, and conditions there not anywhere

ideal … any questions, ask MIss Gimpy … I’m gonna try and trade the first part

of the Asian session tonight, and if YEN moves I’ll do some algorithm trades if

appropriate … then attack it again near the European open going forward … I

think this will give us MAX flexibility and profit potential … quite frankly,

USDJPY never sleeps any longer, it’s always doing something and being

squeezed … the world seems to demand it! … onto tomorrow!


… OUTTA HERE … “The future’s so bright I need 2 pairs of sunglasses 😎😎,

and my own Brinks armored truck” 💓!! … Onward & Upward!!

THE WORLD IS BEING LED BY FOOLS

 

“Hi, I’m “Taliban Joe”! … Make Back America’s Enemies Better Again!”

How do you ruin a country in 8 months? … EASY PEEZEE: “follow “Taliban Joe”,

voted #1 Terrorist supporter of ALL TIME! … and as I have warned from the

beginning with this demented fartbag, every day / week / month that passes

only gets worse … literally everything he has touched or had input in for over

50+ years in the “Swamp”, he has FUBAR, to the point even Osama Bin Laden &

Ex Preezy Empty Suit have marveled at his ability to be wrong ABOUT

EVERYTHING 100% of the time … if you voted for this Doofus, you should go

seek professional help, right after eating that gas station sushi you bought

on sale.


Maybe reality is starting to come back to people … too early to tell really, but the

enthusiasm for “Stonks” is waning, especially tech stocks … there simply seem

to be far less “thrill up your leg” moments than before, but still almost every night

the Chuckleheads bid “Stock Bellies” higher … why? … is it the SNB [Swiss

National Bank] doing it on the cheap while the rest of the West sleeps? … me

thinks maybe … but then the double dose of idiocy from “Taliban Joe” and crew,

and not so great worldwide inflation numbers, and the thrill is gone.


Into the New York afternoon, and selling intensity is picking up across the

“Stock Bellies” complex … energy prices are EXPLODING across China & Europe,

and food costs are right behind … quite frankly given the news flow, the fact we

aren’t down double what we are points to the level of buy manipulation, but even

so the rallies today have been very short in scope and even more brief in terms

of time … “we’re in the back “6” of the paradigm, where not only are there no

rules, the red spikes from hell after EVERY SHORT RALLY are especially brutal

… you don’t see this in the front “94” … “Toto, we ain’t in Kansas anymore”!


The danger here for buyers isn’t that you’re unable to catch a few index points in

a long trade … it’s what happens when you’re one microsecond late on the turn

lower, and the red spike gets ugly quickly … and it all happens in less time than it

takes for you to blink your eyes … now what? … yes indeed, what’s the plan now

Skippy besides prayer? … we’re also seeing end of Q3 flows, which is adding to

the heightened volatility … “yea, I want VIX, I just don’t want bat shit crazy [BSC]

VIX, and today we’re borderline on that front” … with all of the “Stock Bellies”

over stretched to the upside for years, in terms of price, you can’t ignore the

heartburn indices are exhibiting right now, especially technically from the charts,

cuz once this shit gets rolling to the downside it can get ugly far quicker & more

nasty than you think … today not at all conducive to being long … tonight into

tomorrow, given the run in USDJPY, and it’s position as “Kingmaker” for

“risk on / risk off” trades in every complex, sees me eyeing it for some algorithm

trades … with the Q3 flows over, and some profit taking into the weekend early in

the day, there exists the potential for some excellent long trades … we’ll see.


No trades today in anything … all of the tiny rallies we saw today [so far] in

“Stock Bellies”, sees them top out and then on some corrective lower action,

there’s no turnaround to go higher, simply a mad panic to go lower still to another

new low for the day … the entire day broke down like that, and left me no choice

but to leave the buy side alone … over in crypto, after the Chuckleheads blistered

BTC higher by almost $3,000, once Europe opened, it’s been locked into an $800

“Flying Wedge of Death” [FWD] for the last 12+ hours … go figure … incredibly

boring day in BTC, so no trades here either for “The Syndicate” … if it doesn’t

wanna play, there ain’t anything I can do about it!


… outta here … “the future looks so bright, I need sunglasses”! 😎

… Onward & Upward!!

LITERALLY UNREAL

 

“Hail the Ponzi … Long live the Ponzi!”

It never ceases to amaze me how “Stock Bellies” can consistently defy gravity

… today sees the Chuckleheads in the Asian session take the DOW30 down from

its highs to 300 index points lower on China panic within their tech sector … nice

job Chuckleheads! … and immediately after running sell stops at Friday’s low,

more than likely the SNB [Swiss National Bank] comes in and aggressively bids

“tulip bulbs” 200 index points higher, straight up the frickin’ wall … by the time I

hit my screen this early A.M., the recovery was well on its way to forcing shorts

to puke … literally unreal.


My main focus is on the NYSE session, but if I get signals starting around

5:00 - 6:00 AM EST [New York], I’ll take ‘em if the trading action is good, and I’ll

ignore ‘em if conditions are mostly in chop mode … but as noted above, Asia

sees a 300 index point range, with some good trading action on both sides of

the ball … after the European buying blitz, things have quieted considerably, with

Turnkey’s scumbag LP’s blowing the spread out to 3 index points … why?

… greed, pure and simple and cuz they can … I’ve already told them this is

bullshit, but they could care less … as we work towards the NYSE open, this

should … SHOULD! … come back to 2, but we’ll see … it’s simply a never ending

battle with these thieves & parasites, who are ALWAYS looking to clip you for

an extra buck wherever & whenever they can.


And it’s the usual scam NYSE open, where the Chipmunks pay the high of the day,

and then brutal reality sets in and prices plummet when the opening orders run

dry … trading during this time is not recommended cuz slippage will be beyond

horrendous … so, another big reversal day in the DOW30, and the NYSE just

opened.


Then there’s today’s edition of comedy gold … home sales a big “sigma” miss,

which only means in today’s FUBAR “markets” [cough, bullshit, cough] NO

TAPER coming from QE, and no rise in interest rates is imminent … BULLISH!

… quite frankly, looking at the week and the schedule of events, earnings

“bigly & yuge” starting tomorrow, and then on Wednesday, another FED interest

rate decision from the “Wizards of Smart”, so today looks to be the lightest from

the calendar … from China, that’s another story entirely … but make no mistake,

the sharp rebound after the Chuckleheads departed for the casinos, comes cuz

the scumbag LP banks bought it all the way down, and now it to rally to sell back

to the Dopes who sold it … well, mission accomplished! … then there’s New York,

where shit basically dies once the order book has been picked clean … ho hum,

just another day in “Stonks”! … and btw, this is the 4th day in a row where [so far],

the DOW30 is substantially under it’s 20 Day Range MA.


We’ve reached that point in the day, as we head towards the NYSE close, where

I’m not comfortable at all in trading the DOW30 cuz there isn’t enough time left in

the day to recover from some nasty movements if they appear, and quite frankly

the last hour to 90 minutes has a history of being fraught with disaster moves

out of nowhere … thanks but no thanks.


In the NYSE session so far, only 2 buy signals, where one I made the trade, and

the other blew through the signal so fast I didn’t have a reasonable chance to buy

it without getting royally screwed by Turnkey’s LP’s … so, only one algorithm

trade today … TURNKEY PAMM UP SLIGHTLY.


Usually we’ll get 5 - 10+ really good signals in the DOW30, but not today … once

the London Fix was over and Europe closed, price movement died with it … more

than likely, that means some wild last half hour to last hour bat shit crazy [BSC]

price moves, something I want no part of as the clock ticks down … onto

tomorrow. 


Meanwhile for the first time in weeks, crypto shows some life! … well, about

frickin’ time … maybe tomorrow sees some life in the alt-coins as well? … if so,

“The Syndicate” will be back trading … we’ll see.


… outta here … “the future looks so bright, I need sunglasses”! 😎

… Onward & Upward!!
