Call me crazy but I think the OP should be day trading, and here is why I say that. A guy learning to box will need to be hit how many times during trading before he can even enter an official fight? He needs to experience punches from all angles and all combinations. He needs to learn to...

And honestly, a nuclear war isn't so bad. Eventually the bombs stop, and many cities will be spared. The world population may heavily drop, and areas become inhabitable, but life will go on. The huge hit to the population will actually be a breather for the environment, a bit of a reset you...

Congrats for the incredible turn around. I have a friend who was doing much better than you, but he too got into crypto early and has enough now for multiple lifetimes. Its crazy to think that for the past few years while I have been learning to trade, the biggest opportunity just passed me...

The shitty thing is that poor people will be hit first. The rich have enough reserves of stuff and can wait out for a resolution longer. So in order for them to start to feel it and hence push for change, it will mean an extended freezing of financial services. I'm sure there is enough caviar...

I quite like her. Such a smart woman and humble. Honestly, any company today that too advantage of the free money policies is almost a scam in my book. The ultra rich should have never been able to accumulate so much wealth, and without them, there wouldn't be unlimited VC funding to go...

Agreed! Thanks for the write-up.

For as long as I can remember, I used to think, how could someone lend someone else 500k to buy a house, take on all the risk, and only accept 3-4% per year as payment. This goes back to a time when a house wasn't an investment though, and renting houses out for cash flow wasn't really a thing...

@johnarb Your last several posts are bang on and blew my mind, especially the Amazon "ponzi" analogy. I think you should fix the Russia/Ukraine crisis next. Your talents are being wasted on crypto. I would like to buy the "johnarb" coin and piggy back on anything you get involved in please.

Can you show which two IHS patterns are legitimate and what the rules are for this? Also, since you say to enter where the entry should be, what are your rules for this? I agree that a trade moving 25 points in your favor is a win, regardless of how much further it goes. Thanks.

To be honest though, I can just as easily make the case for the blue IHS matching something similar that you show in white, and that didn't produce a rally. Furthermore, the IHS in red did produce a nice bounce, and another IHS in yellow failed to rally. If I look for a regular pattern vs. an...

I don't know my history too well, but I tend to agree with you, and the truth is usually somewhere in the middle anyway. But I think 20 years ago, the world was a different place and public opinion wasn't what it is today. I'm surprised how much global support there is for Ukraine right now...

I just don't ever see an 80% or greater bet. The chance of Russian withdrawal was always there, and even if the market already went up heavily the past 2 days, this sort of news would push it up even higher. Someone else said just a while ago that they don't take 50/50 bets, and I think going...

I am sad to see that India is not fully on board with this. They weren't big on the sanctions, and only care about their supply of fertilizer I think. Sure, you don't want your people to go hungry, I get it, but going forward, I don't see how India will be able to ask for support in the future...

Usually with these things, by the time you see that you need to do something, it's usually too late. The bank machines are empty.

This is where we disagree. The people in Russia can't do anything to Putin because look at how easy it is for him to block all the demonstrators. It has to be the rich people who start to lose their access to the world that have to put the pressure on Putin.

This is how you topple Putin. You piss off enough people on the inside who then do the dirty work of getting rid of him.

So you're telling me that if you encounter someone who is out to kill you, your first instinct is to sit them down and try to negotiate with them? Maybe you will offer them just one kidney and hope they leave you with the other one? Perhaps beg them to only take out one eye? Offer the left...

Are you going to update us on your position shorts? Everyone seems to be leaning towards long going forward. Have you flipped opinions or are you still confident of further down action?

It is an absolute disgrace to see some fearful of forcing Russia out of Swift. You simply cannot negotiate with a country that invades another country. I'm reading how countries like India and several others will not support this move. You've also got Germany too scared to pull the trigger...

This mandate will have the opposite effect of bringing calm and stability. When people see a fire and you tell them not to run, what do you think happens?
