A scary chart.

the back of my mind had been starting to worry about the HODL idea. Damn...

What can we glean from this?

It's not that scary. -- Life would be terribly boring...if things moved directly upwards/downwards, completely linearly.

A wise person and trader can glean alot from this. -- and turn that knowledge into gold, or money.
The market can be extremely erratic and unpredictable...it's important you structure the game, or trade, in your favor and skill to as much as you can.

An average/failure person would say...the market is so messy to make any money in it.
While a killer trader and strategist and opportunist will further analyze and subdivide things and question various variables and aspects of it all...until the complete, collective picture starts to make some slight sense,

Am still going with HUGE tax change for corporations that what we just experienced will be left shoulder-markets be going higher and much greater highs yet to come. Also think President Trump popularity is steadily increasing and he is learning much on dealing within Congress. Many don't like his style of "You're fire", but many want change in America, can't have change with your hands in your pockets, Congress been making millions for their own pockets, their own health care, retirement and the People left with scraps, I never voted for them to get richer off serving us. Can you imagine the same occurring in local communities? They be in prison before long, how come federal is so much different? Different amount of protections.
