These people have no respect for your blood pressure MB. I checked out that Perry Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average you mentioned. Very good for a Systems Trader like yourself. Explains why multiple Moving Averages work too.
Elon is the CEO of TSLA, his stock is down 50% from the 2025’s high. Once upon a time there was a CEO of UBER named Travis Kalanick, he was forced to resign for scandal after scandal. His actions were driving UBER’s stock in to the ground. How much value has Elon wiped out in 2025?
Elon’s heart is not in to TSLA, he is rich and bored like King Solomon. Ecclesiastes 2:17 , "So I hated life, because what is done under the sun was grievous to me, for all is vanity and a striving after wind." “ 1 Kings 11 Solomon’s Many Wives 1Now King Solomon loved many foreign women. Besides Pharaoh’s daughter, he married women from Moab, Ammon, Edom, Sidon, and from among the Hittites. 2The Lord had clearly instructed the people of Israel, “You must not marry them, because they will turn your hearts to their gods.” Yet Solomon insisted on loving them anyway. 3He had 700 wives of royal birth and 300 concubines. And in fact, they did turn his heart away from the Lord. 4In Solomon’s old age, they turned his heart to worship other gods instead of being completely faithful to the Lordhis God, as his father, David, had been. 5Solomon worshiped Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Sidonians, and Molech, the detestable god of the Ammonites. 6In this way, Solomon did what was evil in the Lord’s sight; he refused to follow the Lord completely, as his father, David, had done. 7On the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem, he even built a pagan shrine for Chemosh, the detestable god of Moab, and another for Molech, the detestable god of the Ammonites. 8Solomon built such shrines for all his foreign wives to use for burning incense and sacrificing to their gods. 9The Lord was very angry with Solomon, for his heart had turned away from the Lord, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice. 10He had warned Solomon specifically about worshiping other gods, but Solomon did not listen to the Lord’s command. 11So now the Lord said to him, “Since you have not kept my covenant and have disobeyed my decrees, I will surely tear the kingdom away from you and give it to one of your servants. 12But for the sake of your father, David, I will not do this while you are still alive. I will take the kingdom away from your son. 13And even so, I will not take away the entire kingdom; I will let him be king of one tribe, for the sake of my servant David and for the sake of Jerusalem, my chosen city.” Solomon’s Adversaries 14Then the Lord raised up Hadad the Edomite, a member of Edom’s royal family, to be Solomon’s adversary. 15Years before, David had defeated Edom. Joab, his army commander, had stayed to bury some of the Israelite soldiers who had died in battle. While there, they killed every male in Edom. 16Joab and the army of Israel had stayed there for six months, killing them. 17But Hadad and a few of his father’s royal officials escaped and headed for Egypt. (Hadad was just a boy at the time.) 18They set out from Midian and went to Paran, where others joined them. Then they traveled to Egypt and went to Pharaoh, who gave them a home, food, and some land. 19Pharaoh grew very fond of Hadad, and he gave him his wife’s sister in marriage—the sister of Queen Tahpenes. 20She bore him a son named Genubath. Tahpenes raised him in Pharaoh’s palace among Pharaoh’s own sons. 21When the news reached Hadad in Egypt that David and his commander Joab were both dead, he said to Pharaoh, “Let me return to my own country.” 22“Why?” Pharaoh asked him. “What do you lack here that makes you want to go home?” “Nothing,” he replied. “But even so, please let me return home.” 23God also raised up Rezon son of Eliada as Solomon’s adversary. Rezon had fled from his master, King Hadadezer of Zobah, 24and had become the leader of a gang of rebels. After David conquered Hadadezer, Rezon and his men fled to Damascus, where he became king. 25Rezon was Israel’s bitter adversary for the rest of Solomon’s reign, and he made trouble, just as Hadad did. Rezon hated Israel intensely and continued to reign in Aram. Jeroboam Rebels against Solomon 26Another rebel leader was Jeroboam son of Nebat, one of Solomon’s own officials. He came from the town of Zeredah in Ephraim, and his mother was Zeruah, a widow. 27This is the story behind his rebellion. Solomon was rebuilding the supporting terraces and repairing the walls of the city of his father, David. 28Jeroboam was a very capable young man, and when Solomon saw how industrious he was, he put him in charge of the labor force from the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh, the descendants of Joseph. 29One day as Jeroboam was leaving Jerusalem, the prophet Ahijah from Shiloh met him along the way. Ahijah was wearing a new cloak. The two of them were alone in a field, 30and Ahijah took hold of the new cloak he was wearing and tore it into twelve pieces. 31Then he said to Jeroboam, “Take ten of these pieces, for this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: ‘I am about to tear the kingdom from the hand of Solomon, and I will give ten of the tribes to you! 32But I will leave him one tribe for the sake of my servant David and for the sake of Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel. 33For Solomon has abandoned me and worshiped Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Sidonians; Chemosh, the god of Moab; and Molech, the god of the Ammonites. He has not followed my ways and done what is pleasing in my sight. He has not obeyed my decrees and regulations as David his father did. 34“‘But I will not take the entire kingdom from Solomon at this time. For the sake of my servant David, the one whom I chose and who obeyed my commands and decrees, I will keep Solomon as leader for the rest of his life. 35But I will take the kingdom away from his son and give ten of the tribes to you. 36His son will have one tribe so that the descendants of David my servant will continue to reign, shining like a lamp in Jerusalem, the city I have chosen to be the place for my name. 37And I will place you on the throne of Israel, and you will rule over all that your heart desires. 38If you listen to what I tell you and follow my ways and do whatever I consider to be right, and if you obey my decrees and commands, as my servant David did, then I will always be with you. I will establish an enduring dynasty for you as I did for David, and I will give Israel to you. 39Because of Solomon’s sin I will punish the descendants of David—though not forever.’” 40Solomon tried to kill Jeroboam, but he fled to King Shishak of Egypt and stayed there until Solomon died.
The Brainwashing Narrative Optimism and Hype: Many retail investors are continually exposed to media narratives and promotional messages that emphasize the endless upward potential of the market. This creates an environment where buying long is glorified, reinforcing the belief that stocks only go up in value. For many, this optimistic view is hard to reconcile with the concept of an asset losing value or a seemingly counterintuitive strategy like short selling. Limited Education on Advanced Strategies: Short selling and other risk-management strategies require a higher level of sophistication. They involve understanding not just market trends but also mechanics like borrowing shares, margin requirements, and the risk of short squeezes—which can lead to significant losses if not managed properly. This complexity often leads to a natural self-selection where the average investor sticks to the idea of “buy low, sell high,” even if that mindset doesn’t capture the whole picture. The Professional Edge Balanced Perspective: Professional traders are typically trained—and have learned through experience—to view the market as flexible. They recognize that both rising and falling prices can provide opportunities. For them, short selling is a tool that, when used correctly, can hedge against market downturns or even profit from overpriced stocks. Risk-Reward Analysis: Professionals often conduct rigorous analyses to identify overzealous pricing. When they see stocks that appear inflated by hype, they use short selling not only to protect their portfolios but also to capitalize on the expected correction. Their strategies are based on a calculated risk-reward framework, something many retail investors aren’t equipped with or willing to master. Market Dynamics and Arbitrage: Even though one might argue that one investor's loss is another’s gain, the reality is more complex. Professionals understand that market prices are the aggregate result of countless individual expectations. When a stock is violently overpriced due to hype, its eventual correction isn’t just about someone losing money—it’s about mispricing, which traders can arbitrage. They may even take positions that allow them to profit regardless of short-term volatility, using a mix of long and short strategies. Explaining It to the "Ignorant Public" Communicating this nuanced view is challenging because it requires overcoming several cognitive biases: Confirmation Bias: Many people look for information that confirms their optimistic beliefs about the market. Messaging that contradicts those beliefs is often dismissed, regardless of its validity. Simplification of Complex Ideas: The notion that “stocks always go up” is an oversimplification that ignores fundamental market cycles and risk. Explaining short selling involves delving into more complex financial concepts that might seem intimidating without a background in finance. Emotional Investing: Retail investors often make decisions based on emotion—fear of missing out (FOMO) or overconfidence—rather than sound risk management practices. This can lead them to ignore strategies that might protect against downturns. One way to frame the conversation might be: "Imagine you're at a carnival where every game promises a big win, as if the only way is to bet on success. Professional traders, on the other hand, see the underlying odds. They know that for every inflated prize, there’s an opportunity to make money by betting against the hype—anticipating that the show can’t last forever, and the prices will eventually correct." This analogy captures the essence of a balanced view: the market isn’t a one-way street where only buyers win. Both sides of the market can profit, but only if the investor understands and can act upon all facets of market behavior.
