I know how everyone feels already. Definitely no secrets. As they say I'm not here to make friends, but to speak the truth about the markets.
That led to this environment actually. The amount of free money that was put into this system ultimately created this monster. That was the final bear market of our lifetime. You can never rule out something like what happened this past summer, but it was like a 3 week thing. People now know that any dip is an absolute gift. Even future dips that occur when the market is 20% higher from where it is now. I can see a bad week at some point, but again it's the idea that any timeframe is that one red candle, and the V starts immediately after it ends. So pick your timeframe, day week or even month, but it's never sustainable.
Longer than you probably. 18ish years of bring in market. Not gonna disclose age. I've seen those markets, but they are a thing of the past. Just no possible way when they will shove a V at any support, MA, VWAP etc. I remember what a bear market used to look like and know for sure they've been eliminated for good.
Fixed that for you. How do you explain 2022, then? Clearly the market sold off substantially then and for a bit more than 3 weeks? What's different now compared to then? On some levels I do agree with you, though. I just think it's stupid to make claims like how the market will never sell off again when it's not that long ago since it did so.
So, pump or dump today? Looking at the prior NFP days this year it's been a good mix of both. No strong edge here on that basis alone. I remain bullish on year end, but not as confident as @v-shape-0DTE. Long from the lows. Considering holding through the release.
