What are you going to do different this time? Obviously there's no record of success this far so change is imperative. Long time frames, different entry/exit strategy, etc. What is different this time?

So you're implying that more "smart money" trades in the Dow than the S&P as a general rule of thumb? That's pretty comical.

Stay mostly in government bonds and cash. I would tend to stay on the shorter duration side with the intention of snatching up assets at bargain prices after the fall. Durring a deflationary depression, the money is made by buying stocks, RE, gold, etc on the cheap.

It's only dumb if it goes down

Yes, I see trades called in hindsight. Anyone can mark up a chart after the fact.

I see no problem with your plan

Update to this story. It's nice that there is an internet to get word of such practices out to the public. I would expect they took some heat over this.... http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2014/04/15/social_security_halts_collection_of_kins_old_debt_122287.html

Copper's weakness may spell trouble ahead for China, which would then bleed over to our QE propped market.

Keep electing Dems. It will get much worse. "Fairness" requires lots of other people's money.

Plus you throw in the whole... threat to: banking, US monetary printing, wealth redistribution via politics...... which means you have some natural enemies with lots of power and money watching your growth to make sure you never become a serious threat to their interests.

Yes, I'm saying it has both problems. Little to no intrinsic value, and it's easily copied. That's a VERY bad recipe. A chair actually takes raw materials, man power or robotic power, shipping, marketing and so on. The entire premise of bitcoin is very easily copied, by anyone with some...

The technology may be new, but currencies and stores of value have been around for thousands of years. I don't believe Buffett is right 100% of the time, but where is the intrinsic value in a made up product that can be easily duplicated? I mean why should I pay you $400 for a bitcoin? Why...

Haha, I agree. The zealots will be saying that all the way down to zero saying it's a great buying opportunity. The jig is up. People understand that there is no intrinsic value in something that can so easily be replicated and regulated.

I knew Democratic politicians would start pushing the FTT again fresh on the heels of this HFT book. There has been a pretty obviously coordinated media blitz regarding HFT recently. The mainstream media acts in a very coordinated way with the Dems to advance progressive politics...

Your posts are barely intelligible and you're asking for "profound" answers???

You can also trade Silver ETF's..... SLV which has high volume, or the 3x leveraged version USLV which has pretty good volume as well.

It will be very interesting to see where things go if rates keep climbing as expected. I guess we'll see if the MMT crowd is correct, or the Austrians finally get their inflationary spiral.

Can you clarify your post a little? I'm not sure what you're saying/asking. Thanks

At the end of the day, all of the institutions will be exempt. It will be the small, retail traders only that are affected.
