Or maybe one of the whales behind the thugs making death threats to you wants to disrupt your credibility. The dark forces are working nonstop to keep the plebeians from staying afloat. No matter the reason for this particular trade going awry, there’s no denying we are in the middle of a war between good and evil.

Fight the good fight, everyone. We must not let the bad guys win. 🙏

To defeat or mitigate against damage, planning is needed, the ultimate is to seperate and form a sperate society. They have done it with secret societies, anyone can.

The "US' is controlled by the "you-know-whos", and they don't lose wars. War is a racket according to USA's most decorated General of all time, Smedley Butler. The wars operate on money printed by private central banks owned by "them". They curate a conflict, set it in motion using false flags and psyops. They finance both sides and provide war materials from (((their))) factories. Afterwards, the loser pays "reparations" and the devastated area is re-built using their companies. The political landscape is re-arranged to better suit them. The US taxpayer pays for most of it, and the prime goal is to strip USA of every dollar possible. You thought US lost in Viet Nam, Afghanistan or anywhere? Don't be daft. The powerless US taxpayer lost. But that's all. The so-called deep state players (you-know-whos) made a ton of money, then moved on to the next one. That's how the subverted rotten system has worked practically forever. There is no "US", other than a fake republic run by infiltrators from a shitty little organized crime enclave in the Middle-East.

I agree with you 100% and what I should of said was the US people (sheep) loses another war. Since the history of mankind the rich (bankers, deep state etc.) have always been in control and will always be....

We all know France really controls the U.S. Government. The French have convinced any contrarians of America to believe that it’s the Jews bankers (like you’ve described) control the government when in reality that is another trick the demonic French use to subvert and destroy nations. The French are responsible for all evil in the world. The Biblical devil is an allegory for France.

I am sure if you downloaded TradingView to your phone or computer, you would enjoy that modern charting platform and very quickly remember it all. It can be quite fun and interesting way to pass idle time. I think you get to use up to 3 indicators (e.g., Greg's two sets of Bollinger bands + Hull moving average) with the free to use version. I've been using free for 2.5yrs. I will probably upgrade next Black Friday sale because I could do with a 4th indicator + some of the other non-essential luxury features.

Hi Greg, relative new viewer. Could you send or post a "Share Grid" link to the "Swing Trading Set Up" chart. The link includes all the internal settings of each study. I've tried to recreate your settings but having a little trouble. Definitely worth a $25 contribution. Thanks. roneaston1@gmail.com

Greg, a good trader evaluates his losing trades. We all knew you did that. But a good man and a good leader shares the lessons learned. Thank you for your humility in sharing this, instead of glossing over it publicly like so many would. I appreciate you!

I found this nugget most helpful, "The wider/widening purple Bollinger Band signals increasing volatility", coupled with your reasoning behind why the narrow band anomoly likely signalled a dubious shorting opportunity that you missed at the time. We are all human and make mistakes. Acknowledging, learning, and moving on head up is the way of the warrior / lion! 🙏💪🧠

Greg, I want to know, after this cycle is over, will the average guy&gal be able to afford an average house (your litmus for inflation)? I watch Hugh Hendry and Raoul Pal debate the fine points as to which asset will win; but nowhere do I hear that the schmucks will be ok. Thoughts?

Greg why do you call the trade a loss. You had an Aug expiration. You could DCA like the last trade and wait for the market to come down. Did you sell and take a loss? Did you not believe in the trade anymore?

Greg, you are a good teacher. You are brave enough to explain your losing trades. This is valuable because you are showing us how the :Thought Processes of analyzing a trade. This is priceless.

Truly an intellectually honest analysis. Don’t understand all the details yet, but I like a good challenge. Think I’ll get a demo Thinkorswim account next week like someone suggested here previously, for the purpose of exploring indicators and to get some more clarity about the market. Thanks for sharing! 😃

thanks greg, trading view does not seem to have the same indicator input options as the platform you are using.

Good point. And, although the question is rhetorical, the literal answer is at least $100-150K U.S per head by the time all is accounted for: hefty fees, transportation, accommodations, salaries, entertainment. And all paid for by us, the unwashed. And these pretenders are just stick figures, cutouts, chimps, golems who have been summoned there to be re-oriented, re-programmed and given new marching orders on how they are going to exploit us even better in the future on behalf of our criminal overlords. Please laugh. Don't let it upset you. Humans are just dim-witted primates that can talk. Planet of the Apes was the real deal.

You say, “Please laugh”, but there’s nothing to laugh about. There’s only the eternal torment of being a 5’2” Cambodian incel.
