WHAT THE PANDEMIC HAS EXPOSED

“The joke is on us!”

When the societal onion gets peeled back, what do we really learn from a

pandemic that has no agenda? … 1) we learn the complete folly of government

at every level, with every two-bit POL desperately desiring for their inner

“Joseph Stalin'' to be able to break out and control somebody … anybody

… and most importantly government isn’t the solution, government is the

problem … 2) the MSM ARE the enemy of truth at every turn and have forsaken

their responsibility to be taken seriously … only when viewed as political hacks

does anything they say or write make any sense, always the narrative or agenda

of radical progressive BS over actual truth … 3) financial markets have been

exposed for what I’ve known for a long time … they are manipulation machines

to control people’s behavior … the manipulations finally getting to a point where

even die hard “free marketers” can’t keep a straight face when faced with FED

manipulation facts … 4) and finally, what we’ve learned is that the mantra, “never

let a crisis go to waste” is in full force, and the further erosion of our liberties will

be diminished in the days / weeks / months / years ahead, until the next time

Libtard Loons get full power, and at that exact moment the U.S. is O.V.E.R. as

you’ve known it … first your liberties are taken away, then your “behavior” is

reported to authorities, and finally your wealth & money are confiscated … it’s

started, and until Sheeple in “Murica wake the fuck up and throw out of office

the same old dipshits they keep returning to D.C., nothing will change the

trajectory towards your eventual serfdom.

“The ChiComs lied, people died” … there POLS, I solved it for you … trusting

Communists, Socialists, Anarchists, & Libtard Loons to be truthful, and work for

the greater good of INDIVIDUAL LIBERTY & FREEDOMS, is like asking hungry

lions to not eat the lamb but wait for the vegetarian tofu plate to be served later

… agenda & narrative is all that matters, and they view their idiotic Utopian

ideals to be morally superior to whatever you think is in your best interests

… there “self anointed” faux superiority is a fucking joke, led by losers who

teach at the indoctrination centers we used to call universities … no longer is

“critical thought” the goal, with well rounded young adults shaping the future of

the country … instead we get indoctrinated SJW Weenies with useless &

worthless degrees, who can’t “think”, can’t write, see every living moment

through the prism of some kind of “-ism”, and live a humorless life always angry,

deny the existence of God, hate their parents, and worship at the altar of abortion,

climate change, and their own brilliance … credentialed NOT educated, who live

in Mom’s basement and do nothing but whine & complain.

I have a better opinion of financial markets having a future, than I do for the

continued existence of the U.S. as you know it, simply cuz the elites NEED

markets for their continued corruption, money laundering, & under the table

bribery payments to POLS & Apparatchiks everywhere, no matter the country or

style of rule … understand, that can’t be allowed to stop, cuz nobody in power

wants it to.

So here we are on a Friday, not much happening overnight, except the NFL draft

via the internet, whose sole purpose was to remind us of what life used to be like

before the “little Joe Stalins” stepped in and told you what to do and how to react

cuz you’re to fucking stupid to know on your own … meanwhile, while there are

“rules” for social distancing and all that shit for everyday Joes, the elites & rulers

that “think” they are our betters simply do whatever the fuck they want

… welcome to serfdom Sheeple! … “please kind sir, may I have another cup of

gruel”?

Today’s open at the NYSE, a classic case of “pump & dump”, with the

“Chipmunks” getting fed stock at the highs, followed by the dump  … since we

can’t see or have any way of knowing true order flow, it’s not something I’m keen

on to make a trade in the DOW30 … however, that doesn’t mean I don’t know

when I see it … for those not in the “loop”, the “Chipmunks” are those

institutions [ETN’S, ETF’S, Mutual funds, & large hedge funds] that are required

to do the day’s buying of stock during the first 5 minutes of the day … they have

no choice, either by corporate compliance rules or by industry rules from

alphabet soup regulatory agencies … it’s all to prevent money managers

colluding with traders, and then splitting the ill gotten loot … right, sure … in

reality, these institutions start placing their orders hours before the cash NYSE

open, thus giving the institutional trading desks of scumbag LP banks  knowledge

of the impending buy orders … which they immediately pass on to the prop

account traders down the aisle with a “wink wink, nod nod”, and nobody knows

nuttin’, and nobody sees nuttin’! … these prop accounts are illegal, but who’s

there to care about it? … technically they aren’t illegal, cuz they are independent

offshore accounts domiciled in a tax haven of choice, and the owners legally

aren’t the bank … who actually are the proprietary principals nobody will ever

find out cuz that’s what tax havens are all about … so these traders start buying

as orders come in, and that’s why many times the DOW30 starts rallying into the

open 60 - 90 minutes before hand … and guess who’s there to sell to the

“Chipmunks” during the first 5 minutes? 

OK, with the dinero in hand, they’ll split the booty with various entities, bank

management, and the trader gets some pre-arranged percentage for his/her

efforts … everybody wins! … well, except the doofus institutions, but it ain’t

their money so they don’t care either … ATTENTION REGULATORS: “go back to

watching midget porn on your office computers, and just leave markets alone,

OK? … you guys couldn’t find your ass with either hand if you had a

Rand-McNally road atlas to guide you … nice work “regulatin’, you really

prevented a lot of “scumbaggery” didn’t you”? … it’s not until you realize that it’s

set up this way by regulators to get the actual result they really want, which is

that knowledge flowing into the “right hands” … hands that will give them their

share of the “vig” for the effort, and turning their heads and looking the other

way when needed … how else do you think they deserve to get a cut?

Now, if we actually had the data the scumbag banks have, which means I could

see “order flow” and know who was buying/selling what, and in what quantities,

we to could profit handsomely … only the system is deliberately set up to avoid

this and keep us in the dark … some scam, huh?

Since that “pump & dump” washout during the first 20 - 30 minutes of trading,

it’s been a “Flying Wedge of Death” [FWD] grind inside a tight range … only

about 125 index points so far as of 1 PM EST … the trading action is horrible,

with spikes from hell all over the place … consider this … cash market has been

open for over 3 hours now, and the average M1 range is almost 20 index points

… wait, wut? … 180 minutes of action that doesn’t see but a grand total of 125

index points from the tips, yet the average M1 is 20 index points? … 15% of the

FWD range in the average M1? … how does that work? … it works cuz the

spikes from hell are 1) front runned institutional orders being filled on spikes,

and 2) stops both buy/sell fills to the retail crowd getting butchered as usual

… all have no follow through, and once the 10 second fireworks are over, and

you’ve contributed to the upcoming 2020 Christmas party, it’s time to rinse &

repeat … “hey, who wants to play”?!

I’m not at all happy with trading conditions in the DOW30, but it’s all we got

… we’re paying higher total cost to trade it, but the range is also much bigger

than before, along with the important fact that the FED has lost control over the

indices, meaning they can’t get the volatility Genie back in the bottle … nobody

trusts them & nobody believes their bullshit anymore, and you can see that by

noticing that liquidity in the most heavily traded emini index on earth, the SP500

emini, it has no liquidity … 10 years ago, on average over the course of any

given month, the number of emini futures contracts bid and offered 1 index

point from the current price was about 8500 contracts … look today, and it’s

between 5 - 10! … nobody is sticking their necks out and getting sandbagged by

either Trump or any FED PIe Hole Apparatchik … and that means more, not less

VIX & IVIX, which is what I want … what I don’t like are all of the M1 spikes from

hell that gap in price, and are nothing but orders that are getting front runned,

or stops, and then with a vengeance turn on a dime and gap the other way

… that’s why I say, when liquidating you absolutely MUST use the spikes in your

profit direction to close the trade … if you’re 1 millisecond too late, the scumbag

LP bank will absolutely screw you … guaranteed … it simply doesn’t matter what

happens next, time to move on to the next trade setup.

One algorithm buy signal today in the DOW30 … TURNKEY PAMM / MAM UP 0.1%

A couple of signals got blown through with the usual bullshit, but as VIX & IVIX

are getting squeezed out of these markets, signals numbers drop some … this

week though, outside of Tuesday, has seen abysmal trading conditions … you

have to go back to pre coronavirus days to see shit like most of this week

… hopefully next week sees better trading conditions, but who knows.

Outta here … blog update on Sunday … until then mi amigos

… Onward & Upward!! 

Have a great weekend everybody!
