Extraordinary Popular Delusions & the Madness of ET

  1. Allaces, more personal information given away. I get the first line (Byron with one tiny error), but the rest eludes me. Help, please?

    As an aside, literacy will get you readership, but it doesn't help make money. I should know.

    And thank you for "egregore", something new for an old man. In my day we called it the collective unconscious, as we were all Jung-einflussed.

    Well the rest was mine, a haunting echo from the dark night of my soul... a lost love and many days fasting, skin cleansing and even... the dreaded apparatus... the latter brought more tears to my eyes than the bitch that took a powder

    Here's an equally vapid one:

    The lord of the wind heralds her in
    Light spills and falls with no sound
    A gentle force welling forth
    Her perfume anoints the ground

    I don't have to point out to a reader of Byron the obvious correlation to the 4 elements of air fire water & earth

  3. My god! The romantic sufferer as trader. If it were not for the poesy, I might have been tempted to ask, as might The Kingfish, "Do de name Nononsense ring a bell, Sapphire?". But alas, he is gone forever.

    Very nice. Do such gentle s resonate in any way in trading? I regret that I am quite the Philistine myself.

    BTW, when you say "dreaded apparatus", I think of my computer and high speed modem, but I am sure you were thinking of something else.

    Who could forget his wonderful dream of god taking a giant dump on that pristine glass church in memories dreams and reflections? what a lovely metaphor for life

    But alas my esoteric studies left that sage gent to science as I traversed the muddy waters of occultism Freud took such pains to warn me off

    As for trading... it is a mere trifle after the dark night of the soul... the market is no woman... it's fury has no soul

  5. Someone invoked me? Getting very heavy here. Speak to me of trading and the occult. I am here to help. And I disagree that the Market is not female. If it is evil, it is woman. I am still pissed about Karen Horney, the conniving manipulative bitch, sleeping her way to the top with that bastard Carl, then getting praised in Sperandeo as the best source of trading psych! What am I, chopped liver? Did I not give you the best explanation of SCT you would ever need in "The Future of an Illusion"?

  7. Don't get me started! Tell me, what is floor rotation if not a hard game of "Come Here! Go away!"

  9. Opie, I'm glad it means something to you. All I see is yet another oscillator that turns when it is already obvious to the eye that price has turned. Pure price tells you everything. I see a bear flag. A Jacker sees an FTT. Someone else might see a weaker upthrust. Yet another a lesser high than the higher low. Simple trend following rules confirm chop. But following that double top at a strong round number? Nothing but trouble! Art.

  10. Give me readership: Jack and Spyder remind me of the King and the Duke in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn!
