We're all gamblers & done for

  1. Why are you so worried about "someone else" losing their jobs? This is all part of the business cycle. And if someone else lost 2M in one day then it means someone else (or a group of someone else's) made 2M. All the market does is transfer wealth.

    And whether manipulation happens or not isn't the point. Don't blame manipulation for losses, with an emphasis on the word blame. Look back at the morning chart of the ES in the wee hours. The PPT was supporting the price 1 tick above limit down then the Fed lowers by 3/4. Manipulation? Greed? Shit yeah, it's all out there but you just have to put yourself in a position to profit from it.

    Toss the WWIII gloom and doom scenario. Just let the market move and don't form strong opinions. If you don't give a rat's ass where the market goes the lights will begin to come on. It's just that simple!

  2. But this is all a part of the cyclical "wealth transfer" plan..accept it and trade "with" it. They (globalist's) create wholesale pricing levels by slamming markets down when they have enough groups over leveraged..been going on for over a 100 years.

    Globalist's run it up..groups/individuals over leverage, and then the great big "rug pull". Next, down comes valuations and pricing as everyone panic sells. They then consolidate holdings (companies, stocks, real estate, etc) from the losers at blowout wholesale pricing and then they run it up again for another cycyle.

  3. Exactly. I was making a killing trading Dot-com's back in the go-go days and then the rug was pulled out from underneath me and I cried fowl. Now I'm a little older and a lot wiser. I took my $300 bucks (I ain't even telling you what I started with) and closed my account. Then I went on a relentless pursuit of study. It took me years to come back but now I'm back with a vengence. I ain't crying these days. Make no mistake -- I lose but I lose the right way. I don't cry about it I just make a note of it and realize that I get educated each and every day.

    Lose your opinions and just trade what happens. It's just that simple!

    Batmans has a good point, and it's not about trading.

    The amazing greed of these 'Globalists" is grotesque, nothing is sacred to them. Everything that really matters is brushed aside in their frenzy for more money.

    If nothing else, maybe successful trading can be hedge against the damage these cockroaches are inflicting on everyone...

  6. It is actually about power..globalist's have all the money they need. But they love to divide and conquer..citizens, companies, countries..that is the game and they love their ability to manipulate history. :eek:

  7. I don't think myself as a gambler, on the contrary, I like to see myself as the casino, the house.

    Don't win every play, but in the end, I come up ahead because I place the odds in my favor. Mathematically I beat the game by using decent accuracy and good risk vs reward. I would not call it out of this world numbers, but just like a casino, with good volume, it adds up overtime very nicely.
