Your trading system either has an edge (positive expectation) or no edge (negative expectation). If your trading system is not able to show profitability for extended periods of time (say 6 months-1 year) or huge numbers of trades, say in 200 trades----it has no edge. Backtest all trading...

The Stockmarket has not crashed yet, so how can there be a bottom? Deep corrections and pullbacks do not make for a stockmarket crash. It will come at some point I am sure. We are not there yet. Not even close.

The US is flush with oil but, you have to drill it out of the ground. However, with Joe Biden policies which restrict oil drilling, has the Federal government investigating so called price gouging, more regulations, the US is back to importing huge amounts of oil. All oil producers in the US...

It is criminal the way Joe Biden and the Democrats are just letting illegals get into the US without even having to show up for hearings or even getting locked up while, waiting for their hearings. The US cannot continue allowing millions upon millions of illegals to just come in and over run...

More and more Americans are getting pissed off at Democrats abuse of powers. They cannot even reign in inflation yet, doing their utmost to destroy the US from within by taking the rights of US citizens. Illegal foreigners are given more rights nowadays, including vicious criminals.

What the Federal Reserve raising interest rates is just the cherry on top of the sundae. That will just make a huge market crash that much worst. Price action today probably, just a reaction to other geopolitical events like the Ukraine on the brink of war, more than the Federal Reserve not...

It will take you a long time, to lose that much monies. A lottery ticket costs only $2. I buy a ticket when the jackpot is in the hundreds of millions. Just 1 ticket. People have lost more monies in the Las Vegas casinos and probably, much more in the US markets.

The price action and StockCharts do not lie. One can easily see the weakness in a lot of US stocks. The threat of war in Ukraine resulting in higher oil prices plus inflation running rampant in all sectors of the US does not augur well. Just got my gas bill and it was up almost 50% from just...

The European Union soy boys will be running with their tails between their legs once, war starts. Expect Emmanuel Macron to be among the first ones to save his worthless ass. These guys expect the US forces to do the fighting for them. Joe Biden might get some US troops killed in his display of...
