From my understanding, fiber helps manage blood glucose and may help increase insulin sensitivity. However, blood glucose and blood insulin are two different animals, and fiber doesn't prevent the release of insulin. And you can't keep and eye on insulin levels like you can with blood glucose because determining insulin levels requires a blood test. I stopped juicing twenty years ago due to the high sugar content. I only juice lemons now, along with the rind, because they are supposed to be beneficial to the liver and kidneys. And I don't really juice them, either, I use a high power blender. So I agree with @ph1l, consuming whole foods is much better than juicing. But if you have to juice, I would only juice greens.
Thanks. I like the way you think. It sure as heck has confused me these last few days about the insulin factor. The GREENS route you suggest makes it easily manageable. I'll try it for a few days and see how it goes. Its a learning process for me - just one session of grapefruit+Orange+lemon+lime (the latter 2 with rinds, the 2 formers with as much of white as possible) juiced gave me a yuge boost, never experienced before and a very relaxed digestive tract for hours thereafter.
Good morning friends ............ see posts #208 & #209 QQQ is going down. So why am I not in there with a short trade? I don't feel right, guys. What can I say? There are days when I go blank. I look at the screen and feel there is nobody HOME to drive the car. So I stay out. So, here is the current update then overall: I am still flat new trades on QQQ. This means I have no new trades. Core position trade however which is a daily timeframe trade is as-is as mentioned with STOP at the same level as before at $308.64
There's a lot of sugar in grapefruits and oranges, so that boost you felt was probably a sugar high. This is a pretty good lecture on the dangers of sugar, including fruit sugar:
For Overnight, See thread below. There are many like it earlier in the time stream but the concept is identical. Elitetraders can't call a top to save their lives https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/the-s-p-will-top-at-4540-4601.361256/ Pls review and tell me what you think. My question is: how is it possible for EliteTraders to be such rotten to the core market timers? Rotten? I mean its so bad that one could wonder wtf have they learned in all the years of posting when consistently they fail to SEE ANY TOP COMING EVEN WEEKS AFTER PRINT? Lots of credit should be given to the op by the name of volente_00 for regardless being wrong here and there and right here and there is at least making the effort but instead of encouragement he gets a load of "clown show comments" See posts #4 by Clubber Lang and all the posts by Nine_Ender. Two Class A lost souls with no middle-legs. Shocking! The Art of Market timing is a process. The end Phenomena when you are a reasonably good one is shown below ..
You're clueless. You'll likely burn through a lot of money trading your nutty ideas. You remind me of posters deadbroke, Grand_Super_Cycle, Nitro an insane allegiance to doomsday theory. Hell this is probably your 4th or 5th try at this shit since 2009. My macro calls on here have been good for years. I don't share your obsession with trying to make top calls on US indexes. Let us know when you actually do something successfully. So far you've achieved fuck all. SPX close Jul 13 3801.78 Curr close 3921.05 Change +3.1%
Good morning, Nine_Ender, thanks for dropping in. All these things you say about me are true. I'm just a sinner. Your wrath is justified. You see, when you put something in print it goes down as evidence. I have not read your posts but I will do so NOW. Perhaps I will learn something from you. I am here to learn from EliteTraders. I have already got my money's +=time's worth) worth by reading the magnificent Overnight's posts. He is keeping this place ALIVE. I bow to him in deference. He is real, has a good sense of humor and is top-notch in controlling his anger or frustration if any - all excellent signs of a seasoned Elitetrader. I can learn bigtime from such individuals. Regardless your wrath, you are most welcome
QQQ real time trading update ............... Nothing to report. No change since last post. Q's went down all day yesterday - but without me. I just was not in a winning mood. so I stayed out and made zip from Q. I'm in no hurry because if I smell a rat I go cautious. Its very hard to read the sloppy downdraft from the all-time top of January 2022. The waves are overlapping bigtime. Usually such overlapping stuff is indicative of a corrective wave. But there is one rare exception, namely a leading diagonal. When I am not sure I don't place money at risk. I try not to. Heck, even when sure one can still lose money. Things have a way of clearing up. Patience is a virtue in a Bear market. I'm here to get better and improve.
QQQ reminder of position ................ my core position stop is $308.64. From today's action in Q I might have to close out the entire CORE = TP and go to sidelines and start anew in Short trades when this current bullishness is over. Its a play by ear thing
