  1. As I started posting circa  Jan 212, we were bombarded by lies re Covid going into the plandemic and we are bombarded by lies re Covid coming out.  Imo, LIES is the very best description of govt and media response.  If nothing else the response has been, at best, inconsistent and hypocritical... way too many words redefined on the fly, etc etc...

     
    The questions and observations in this article about the 'vaccine' (which is not really a vaccine - btw) provide some insight.

    Pathologist Speaks Out About COVID Jab Effects

    STORY AT-A-GLANCE

        In the wake of the COVID jab rollout and additional boosters, a number of health conditions are on the rise, including cancer, most notably cancers of the uterus, endometrial cancers, and very aggressive blood and brain cancers
        Cancer has been on the rise for decades, thanks to dietary factors, but the COVID jabs appear to dramatically accelerate the disease process. Many doctors report cancer patients with stable disease, and those who have been in remission for years, will suddenly and rapidly develop Stage 4 disease
        A military whistleblower has come forward with data from the Defense Medical Epidemiology Database (DMED) database showing dramatic increases in medical visits for cancers and other conditions, post-jab
        For neurological side effects of the shot, four remedies that can be very helpful are fluvoxamine (an antidepressant that blocks cytokine production in neural tissues), pharmaceutical grade methylene blue (improves mitochondrial respiration and repair), near-infrared light (triggers production of melatonin in your mitochondria) and hyperbaric oxygen therapy (boosts mitochondrial function, decreases inflammation and much more)
        The COVID jabs also downregulate toll-like receptors 7 and 8, which allows latent viruses such as herpes EBV4 — Epstein-Barr, aka, mononucleosis — to flourish that would otherwise have been kept in check

    Dr. Ryan Cole, an anatomic clinical pathologist with a subspecialty in skin pathology and postgraduate Ph.D. training in immunology, has been on the frontlines exposing the fraudulent COVID narrative.

    Since 2004, he's been operating his own business, a pathology laboratory, which gives him rare freedom and flexibility to comment on what he's seeing. Most others would lose their jobs for speaking out the way Cole has.
    Truth Telling Is a Risky Business

    That doesn't mean he hasn't paid a price for speaking out about and defending real science though. He's triple board certified and has 12 state licenses, and because of his stance against COVID recommendations, some of the credentialing organizations have taken action against him.

        "I've seen 500,000 patients diagnostically in my career through the microscope. So, I have a long track record of diagnostics. I have not had a patient care complaint against me in 26 years of being a physician," he says. "I still don't, and this is what's fascinating.

        Of those 12 licenses, four were under attack, three are still under attack — in Washington, Arizona and Minnesota — [yet there's] not a single patient care complaint. All the attacks against me have been political complaints to boards of medicine, which is not legal for them to do. Not a single one of those complaints is from a patient.

        And then — really the most egregious thing — was ex parte, without me being present, without even sending a certified letter, the College of American Pathologists removed my fellowship status, which is defamatory.

        I went back and found their complaint and looked at what they did, and I actually have a wonderful defamation lawsuit against them, because everything they did was anti-scientific. So, they can either restore [my fellowship] now, or just pay me a big check down the road. One or the other."

    He's also lost about half of his business, as two insurance companies canceled him for "unprofessional behavior," i.e., for sharing and discussing the science of COVID, and one of his best friends, whom he's worked with for 12 years, canceled their business relationship as he didn't want Cole's outspokenness to affect his business. "All because of the defamation by the media, so to tell the truth in this day and age is a dangerous thing," he says.
    Suspicions Arose Early On

    From his Ph.D. work in immunology, Cole was very aware of SARS-CoV-1 and MERS, having studied both, so when the warp speed program to develop a pandemic SARS-CoV-2 vaccine was announced, he became immediately suspicious.

        "I thought, wait a minute, you can't vaccinate against corona viruses!" he says. "This family of viruses is not amenable to vaccination, based on mutation rates. So, my concern was very high, early on."

    Cole's lab ramped up PCR testing, using a cycle threshold (CT) of 35, rather than the recommended 40 to 45, as he knew that high a CT would result in 98% false positives. On a side note, pathologists not only assess tissue samples and biopsies, they're also in charge of testing. The head of every major clinical lab is a pathologist. They're basically in charge of quality control.

        "As pathologist, we're constantly looking at patterns, be it under the microscope or be it in lab data. We're looking at blood reports. We're looking at what's out of range on blood reports. We're looking at microbiology. We're looking at molecular biology. We're looking at cultures. We're looking at pap smears. We're looking, across the board, at those clinical parameters in addition to tissue biopsies," he explains.

        "I have 70 employees, and if there's a blood smear that looks unusual, they bring it to me. If there are parameters on a test that look widely out of range, they bring it to me. And I call and talk to the clinician — [I'm the] doctor to the doctor. We have a consultation practice with the clinicians so I can help them understand what's happening with their patient, and then they can make clinical decisions going forward."

    Post-Jab Cancer Explosion

    One of the apparent side effects of the COVID jab that Cole has been warning and talking about is cancer. He explains:

        "Obviously, during COVID, we saw some parameters change in blood tests. There was a concern about clotting. We saw elevated clotting factors. We know that the early variants were pretty severe in terms of inducing clotting, which was a shame because the whole world should have been simply using anti-inflammatories, steroids and anti-clotting agents, and so many more people would've lived.

        My colleague, Dr. [Shankara] Chetty in South Africa, was having phenomenal success with antihistamine steroids and anti-clotting agents. So anyway, that first year, we saw drops in white blood cell counts, we saw decreases in certain subsets of T-cells. But when the shots rolled out, things changed.

        At first I noticed kind of an innocuous little bump that we see usually in children. It's a little virus called molluscum contagiosum [that causes] a little white bump.

        Usually, by the time you're a tween or early teen, you've built immunity to that and you never get them again, or rarely get them again. But after the shots rolled out, all of a sudden, in 80-year-olds, 70-year-olds, 60-year-olds, 50-year-olds, I started seeing literally a 20-fold increase in this little innocuous viral bump. And I thought, 'Uh oh, this means they've lost immune memory' ...

        Those subsets of T-cells that keep viruses in check are very important for keeping cancer in check. And this is where immunology jumps into the picture. All of us have some atypical cells, and we have the 'Marines' of our immune system, our natural killer (NK) cells. They're on the frontline circulating. We have about 30 billion T-cells circulating in our blood, many of which are killer cells and NK cells.

        Our other innate cells are our macrophages, monocytes and dendritic cells. They're on that frontline. They're shaking hands with every cell in your body all day long saying, 'Friend or foe? Friend or foe? Oh gosh, this one has some mutations, it's now a foe.' They'll poke a little hole in it, throw in a little enzyme called a grandzyme — a 'hand grenade' — blow up that cell, and we're good.

        But what happened after these shots rolled out is that many of those cell subsets started decreasing in number. The first cancer I saw uptick was cancers of the uterus, endometrial cancers. Usually, I would see maybe two endometrial cancers a month. All of a sudden, a few months after the rollout of the shots, I was seeing two or three a week.

        Another subspecialty area of focus for me is melanoma. And I started seeing melanomas, not only in younger patients, as the shots dropped down in age cohort, but they were thicker. The other fascinating thing was they're more aggressive in terms of how many dividing cells was present in each tumor. I'm still seeing this.

        Beyond that ... I've been traveling the country and the world quite a bit ... and wherever I go now, I have doctors and nurses approach me saying, 'What you're saying, we've been seeing.'

        I was having a conversation with a chair of a large oncology department in Tallahassee, and he said, 'I usually see an aggressive brain cancer in a young patient maybe every decade.' After the boosters rolled out, he saw five astrocytomas, five aggressive brain cancers, in one month.

        Then, I'm in Jacksonville the next day, having a conversation with a family doctor. He said, 'Gosh, it's strange, I usually see a kidney cancer in a young patient every decade or so. I've seen five in the last month.'

        Then I was in the UK a couple weeks ago. I had a doctor from Ireland who's been a practicing family doc, GP, for 36 years, and he said, 'I have seen more cancer in my young patients ever since the shots rolled out, and the booster, than I have ever seen in my entire career.'

        Same thing, a nurse that works emergency department in the UK, [said she's seen] not only the heart inflammation in young children, but cancers in young patients and aggressive leukemias. So everywhere I go, I have doctors confirming my observations ... I've had many of them approach me and say, 'Hey look, I'm seeing what you're saying, but I can't say it because I'll get fired.'"

    Cancer Spike Is Being Covered Up

    Aside from what Cole has seen in his own lab, a military whistleblower has also come forward with data from the Defense Medical Epidemiology Database (DMED) database showing dramatic increases in medical visits for cancer, neurological diseases, infertility, autoimmune diseases and several other conditions, post-jab.1

    The DMED is one of the best databases in the world, as the Department of Defense keeps very close tabs on what's happening with our troops. This DMED data was presented during a hearing led by Sen. Ron Johnson. A week after that hearing, the DoD froze access to the DMED, and when it reopened a week later, the data were all changed to eliminate the data spikes.

        "That's what was really shocking," Cole says. "I think this is basically fraud to the level of Watergate, in terms of [there being] somebody behind the scenes, and then the private company that actually manages that database ... manipulated it."

    The DoD has tried to explain this suspicious activity claiming a "bug" in the system had resulted in underreporting of medical conditions in the five years prior to 2021. The number of cancers and other health problems were actually higher in 2015 through 2020 than initially indicated, they said.

    However, how can a program error cause data corruption for five consecutive years and then self-correct, resulting in perfect numbers for 2021? And how did they not notice the error earlier? Again, this is one of the best-kept databases in the world. And how come this "bug" only affected conditions that also just so happen to be known and/or suspected side effects of the jab?
    Future Prognostication

    Clearly, cancer has been on the rise for decades, thanks to dietary factors, but the COVID jabs appear to dramatically accelerate the disease process. There are no published studies to help us foretell the future, but based on what Cole has found so far, how long does he think it'll be before conditions like cancer spiral out of control?

        "That's a great question," he says. "One of the important findings I've heard from many of these clinicians is that many of their patients who have been cancer-free for three, four, five years, their PET scan looks great, no detectable disease, and after that second or third shot, all of a sudden there's Stage 4 disease. It's like wildfire.

        And this goes back to immune suppressive mechanisms, the damage that the persistent spike protein and the persistent modified RNA (mRNA) cause. So, aggressive cancers arising very quickly are one thing we're seeing. Because it's a dose-dependent poisoning curve — in terms of the more spike you have circulating, the worse your immune system seems to be doing — the No. 1 thing is, don't get another shot.

        Because it is causing that immune suppression that's allowing those cancer mechanisms. Over time ... I would say we're going to see a consistent twofold to threefold increase in certain cancers, endometrial cancers, breast cancers, cancers of the prostate, cancers that are testicular or ovarian, neurologic cancers.

        This spike protein has a propensity to cross the blood brain barrier and invade neural tissues. We know what it does to mitochondrial activity in terms of inhibiting it, blocking it, ruining cytochrome C oxidase systems, decreasing ATP.

        Cancer is a hypoxic state. When you don't have good cellular activity and cellular respiration and hypo-oxygenation, you end up with mechanisms that can induce more aggressive cancer. So, I think, at a minimum, [there'll be a] two- to threefold [increase] ... over the next year or two.

        We can only hope that the immune system can normalize and we come up with enough interventions and treatments that will reverse some of this, what some people call spikeopathy, or the different diseases that are being caused by this persistent spike. 'I don't know' is the honest answer, but that would be my projection based on I've seen."

    Excess Mortality Has Dramatically Increased

    Abnormal blood clotting is another commonly reported side effect of the jabs. Post-mortem investigations have revealed thick, extremely long rubbery clots, including in the arteries, which is rare. The longest Cole has seen was about two feet. We're also seeing a lot of micro-clotting, heart inflammation (myocarditis), strokes and heart attacks — all of which can have lethal consequences.

    It's highly concerning that we have regulatory agencies allowing the most dangerous medical product ever released on humanity to persist in the marketplace. ~ Dr. Ryan Cole

    In early January 2022, OneAmerica, a national mutual life insurance company, announced2 the death rate of working-age Americans (18 to 64), in the third quarter of 2021, was 40% higher than prepandemic levels. And this excess mortality was not due to COVID infection. Many of those deaths were in fact cardiac deaths and strokes, which fits the injury profile of the COVID shots.

        "After they came forward, additional insurance companies said, 'We're seeing anywhere from 30% to 50% increase in claims as well.' They have no horse in the race. They're just observing. And I say that as a pathologist too. Look, I don't create disease. I don't prevent disease. I'm a reporter at the scene of the crash.

        My job is simply to report patterns, and then we can scientifically confirm those data patterns. And the all-cause death is increased in those who've gotten two, three shots. Again, it's a dose-dependent curve. The more spike your body is making, the worse people tend to do over time.

        Even Walgreens came out a couple weeks ago and showed their data. Individuals that got shots are getting COVID at higher rates. Even the mainstream media finally, last week — I think it was Good Morning America — said, 'It's looking like the boosters are a bad idea because it's immune suppressing people.'

        So, we're finally making some progress and getting traction in the mainstream where at least the narrative is cracking. There's a crack in the dam and it's starting to leak. Hopefully it'll rush forward and people will go, 'Whoa, this was a bad idea. Let's stop this chaos.' But the FDA is trying to roll it out on [infants] of all things now ... It's really tragic."

    Why Was the Most Toxic Part of the Virus Chosen?

    Considering autopsies have shown spike protein is still present at least four months after their last shot, it seems reasonable to assume that severe health problems can arise months or even years down the road. In fact, we still don't know if the body ever stops producing spike protein once this genetically modified mRNA is injected.

        "We know the spike is the inflammatory aspect of the virus, and our cells are made into spike toxin factories," Cole says. "Studies out of the Salk Institute show that the spike is the cytotoxic aspect of [COVID-19], so we're giving a shot that makes the toxic part of the virus, and it's persisting.

        That's why I think we're going to see this consistent elevation of different diseases related to the spike, be it cardiac, strokes, chronic clotting conditions, individuals dying from pulmonary emboli ... It's highly concerning that we have regulatory agencies allowing the most dangerous medical product ever released on humanity to persist in the marketplace."

    Neurological and Vascular Chaos

    As predicted by MIT researcher Stephanie Seneff, Ph.D., we're now also starting to see reports of Creutzfeldt-Jakob — human mad cow disease — which is a prion disease that basically destroys the brain.

    Strokes in young people and children are also on the rise. Media are now trying to convince you that this is "normal," but it is anything but. Historically, children and teens do not die from strokes. This is a brand-new phenomenon, courtesy of the COVID jabs.

    Microvascular clots (microvascular infarcts) are also a known contributing factor, in the long term, to early onset dementia. So, that's yet another potential health avalanche in the making.
    Four Helpful Remedies

    I've quickly become a fan of pharmaceutical grade methylene blue, as it's been shown to improve mitochondrial respiration and aid in mitochondrial repair. At 15 to 20 milligrams a day, it could potentially go a long way toward resolving some of the fatigue many suffer post-jab and post-COVID. It may also be helpful in acute strokes. The primary contraindication is if you have a G6PD deficiency (a hereditary genetic condition), in which case you should not use methylene blue at all.

    Another important remedy is near-infrared light. It triggers production of melatonin in your mitochondria3 where you need it most. By mopping up reactive oxygen species, it too helps improve mitochondrial function and repair. Natural sunlight is 54.3% near-infrared radiation,4 so this treatment is available for free.

    For neurological side effects of the shot, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressant called fluvoxamine may be helpful. Cole explains the mechanism behind it:

        "[Fluvoxamine] upregulates a receptor called sigma-1, which blocks another receptor called inositol-requiring enzyme 1, which is a precursor for cytokines. So, fluvoxamine will block cytokine production in neural tissues. And that's why [it works]. It's not because of its antidepressant effects. It's a cytokine precursor blocker. So, you actually are decreasing a cytokine storm in neural tissues.

        This is why one uses fluvoxamine. There are other SSRIs, but this mechanism is very specific to fluvoxamine. It's a tough to tolerate drug for some people. It makes some people anxious and agitated, but if you can tolerate it for two weeks, you can really turn down those inflammatory pathways in many patients. I'm not going to say everybody, but I've seen it work in many patients."

    A fourth treatment suggestion is hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). This too can be phenomenally helpful for strokes, heart attacks, autoimmune diseases and neurodegenerative disorders. To learn more, see "Hyperbaric Therapy — A Vastly Underused Treatment Modality."
    IMPORTANT: COVID Shots Are Not Pharmaceutical Grade

    Seneff also warned about potential unknowns arising from fragmented mRNA and impurities, as tests have shown these jabs really are NOT pharmaceutical grade, as you'd expect. Cole comments:

        "These aren't pure products, and I think this is a very important point. When Pfizer submitted vials to the European Medicines Agency to look at purity ... they were in the 50% range ... The TGA in Australia looked at it and said, 'Look, these are only about 60% pure.'

        This means you have a lot of fragmented sequences of mRNA that don't have a stop or a start code on. They're not coding for what you think they're coding for. They're coding for other tinier, shorter fragments. Are those mitogenic? Probably, but we don't know. Can those reverse transcribe into our own DNA? Studies out of Sweden ... show yes, they can ...

        And then, when they manufacture, they can't spin and agitate these, so you get all these lipids that collect at the top of these big vats. So now you get some batches that are hyperconcentrated and some are hypoconcentrated. It appears about 5% of the batches are responsible for about 80% of the harms."

    Autoimmune Diseases of All Kinds Are To Be Expected

    As explained by Cole in the interview, there's a reason there's never been a successful mRNA gene therapy product brought to market, despite 20 years of research effort. The persistence of synthetic mRNA with pseudouridine always caused too many problems in the animal trials to move into human trials. It caused autoimmune disease. It caused mutations. The manufacturers don't even know if the nanolipid used to protect the mRNA is safe in humans.

        "Based on the animal trials, we know there were problems and we can only predict that that's going to happen in humanity. I want to be wrong, but from a basic immunology point of view, I don't think I am," Cole says.

        "The nanolipid particles vary in size, interestingly. I've looked at some under the microscope. Some of them congeal and some of them stay tiny. But because of the fatty nature of them, they will carry their little mRNA and fractionated mRNA package to any cell in the body. And that's the biggest concern. Now it has turned any cell in your body to a potential target [for your immune system].

        An important paper came out in the European Journal of Immunology just about a month ago by Dr. Hagemann. There's a condition called antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity. What that means is that [the mRNA] sequence gets into your cell [and] that cell now becomes the spike factory.

        That spike is on the surface of your cell. Now your NK cells that I talked about earlier say, 'We better blow that cell up.' So now, because there's that spike on the surface, your immune system will destroy your own cells. This is another one of the detrimental effects."

    Pipeline Now Filled With Risky mRNA Shots

    Making matters worse, even though the COVID shots have been shown to be a complete disaster, the drug industry is already working on dozens of different mRNA "vaccines," thinking they now have carte blanche to put out whatever they want using this platform.

    And the reason for this continued insanity is because our health and regulatory authorities are corrupted to the core. They are completely dishonest. They're covering up the shocking harms, and unless something radically changes, they will allow dozens of equally dangerous mRNA gene transfer injections to be put out.
    Reactivation of Latent Viruses

    The COVID jabs also downregulate pattern receptors in your body called toll-like receptors. Specifically, toll-like receptors 7 and 8 are downregulated by the mRNA and pseudouridine in these shots. What does that do? It allows latent viruses to flourish that would otherwise have been kept in check.

    "We've seen a big uptick in herpes family viruses, especially herpes EBV4, which is Epstein-Barr virus [aka] mononucleosis," Cole says. So, for those with post-COVID or post-jab fatigue, long-COVID and those with MS-like symptoms, he recommends checking for Epstein-Barr.

    About 80% of MS patients have high Epstein-Barr titers. "You will find that a lot of these individuals will have reactivated mono," he says. For reactivated mono, methylene blue, HBOT and nebulized peroxide would all be indicated.
    Fertility Under Attack

    In the interview, Cole also reviews the potential impacts of the COVID jabs on the reproductive system. Menstrual dysregulation appears extremely common, as is the inability to become pregnant, despite trying for months, and spontaneous abortions are off the charts. The DMED database also showed a strong signal for fetal malformation before it was frozen and altered.

        "What we're doing to society and humanity with a previously never before used modality and product is causing horrendous harm to the human race, with no regard for science, with no regard for scientific integrity. It's a machine gone amuck," Cole says.

        "There are darker forces behind it. A lot of people are making billions, but they're killing people to do it. And it's just so unethical what we're experiencing societally. Yes, we're causing infertility. Yes, we're causing mutations in cancers. Yes, we're causing heart attacks and strokes. Yes, we're destroying the longevity of a younger generation. It is horrendous.

        There's no justification for any doctor who can look themselves in the mirror and say, 'I feel comfortable giving this experimental product to my patients all day long.' They need to reflect and realize they've lost their mind, [their] critical thinking skills."

    More Information

    Sadly, almost everyone who's credible and trustworthy has been censored and deplatformed at this point, so finding them can be a challenge. To follow Cole's work, be sure to bookmark his website, RColeMD.com. You can also find him on the GlobalCovidSummit.org forum.

    If you are vaccine injured, the Global COVID Summit has a blockchain-based forum where you can share your experience and it will never be taken down. You can't be censored or deplatformed. Cole is available to answer questions in that forum.

    They're also starting up another website to compete with WebMD and similar pharma-run medical sites. It will eventually be available on DMED.com, which stands for "decentralized medicine." This site is not yet live, but you can try it later. Cole will have a page there as well.

    Other thought leaders worth tracking down and following include Dr. Peter McCullough, Dr. Robert Malone, Dr. Pierre Kory, Dr. Paul Marik, Dr. Richard Urso, Dr. Paul Alexander, and Dr. Kirk A. Milhoan, a pediatric cardiologist, and his wife, Dr. Kim Milhoan, just to name a few.

        "These have been wonderful leaders in this movement for truth and sharing science," Cole says. "All of us are part of the Global COVID Summit. We are 17,000 doctors strong and it's very important that people understand that.

        I mean, that's more doctors than they have at the CDC or the FDA or the NIH. This is a group of critical thinking people standing up for your health, your freedom and your right to your own bodily autonomy.

        I think, going forward, as people are starting to wake up and part of this narrative is cracking, let's come back together, let's communicate, let's be kind, let's help each other get back to a more loving, peaceful, communicative society. I think if we can forgive — obviously, there are things we don't want to forget, because we don't want this to happen again — but try to forgive people and try to help people 'come to' again.

        Just come back together in community. I think it's important that we really try to circle the wagons again as humanity, and hopefully come back to our senses. That's a hopeful message I would like to share."

    Why only 5%? According to Hotforex around 20% of traders are winning. I think it depends a lot on broker and its services. 

     

     

     

    Pareto of a Pareto Theory:  Every trader is a member of one of the 3 distinct groups of traders.  The groups -

    Losing Losers - comprise about 78% of the population of traders...

    Surviving Survivors -  comprise about 19% of the population of traders...

    Thriving Thrivers -  comprise about 3% of the population of traders...

     

    Analyst75 is throwing out an estimate of 5%  for the % of traders who are losers who persist and cross over the cusp from failing group to the surviving group

    Hotforex is throwing out that 20 % number because that is about the % of accounts that stay open / active/ surviving ...  right in line with % of the population of traders who are not in the Losing Losers group in the theory above.

    ...Everybody’s got their own ‘inner statistics’ ... Everybody’s got their own ways of (mis)reading 'statistics’

     

    And btw, fxecon and  aimhi, success in trading does not have a fkn thing to do with your broker.  NO correlation with your broker - NONE.  Good grief people.  The same pareto of a pareto %’s held even way back when every order was called in by phone and hand carried to the floor and commissions were 10 times what they are now, and fills were atrocious, and traders had to hand draw their own charts, and calculate their 'tools' on paper... omg


  3. he's just sayin'

    "The pillars of western civilization are breaking down right in front of our eyes. If "reserves" don't mean reserves, and if "money" doesn't mean money, and if home "ownership" doesn't mean ownership, and if the "rule of law" doesn't mean the rule of law, then we have lost the very principles upon which western civilization exists.

    Combined with the fact that nearly everything has become FAKE now -- fake news, fake money, fake history, fake education, fake science, fake medicine, fake elections, fake pandemics, fake shootings, fake hate crimes, etc. -- we find ourselves living in a world with no civil compass.

    Western civilization, simply put, has committed suicide. There is no longer any glue holding it together. The elections are rigged, the money is counterfeit, the news is deliberately fabricated and the propaganda is absurd..."  Mike |Adams

    Quote

    So what do you propose as an alternate?   

    One sure thing about trading forums - The great questions never get an answer.  Ask  even the greatest posters a great question... silence, no nothin’, not even crickets. 

     

     

     

     

    First a few comments about Elliott Wave

    Wave Theory is a ‘science’ of socionomics.  Socionomics is about how societal ideas ‘ideally’ or typically unfold -  wave 1 is the early adapters, wave 3 is broad collective acceptance, wave 5 is continuing valuation narratives but with narrowing collective assessment of actual value... with all kinds of ‘ideal’ sub patterns...

    Socionomics starts with a simple observation: For lots of issues, how people FEEL influences how they will BEHAVE.  (Equally true = How people BEHAVE influences how they will FEEL... but that’s for another topic) Anyways...

    Elliott Wave theory is an attempt to apply socionomics  to trading   - and  yes analyst75 “theory” is the key word.  Imo, it’s a jump too far.   First, price is not a good metric for socionomics.... especially across decades when currencies are being viciously  'corrupted'.   And practically, socionomics does not transfer over to trading nearly to the degree Ellioticians would like.   It simply does not deliver enough of those ‘ideal’ sub patterns because  crowds of traders’ behaviors and ‘feelings’ about pricing are not sufficient equivalents of broader collective behaviors / socionomic waves... ESPECIALLY as time frames shorten... (ie waves may appear to ‘fractal’ down ... but they really don’t.)  

    If you’re going to use EW to trade, probably the most important point you can acknowledge is that 5 wave patterns are EXCEPTIONS to normal trading crowd behavior ie  the best thing a 5 wave pattern indicates is that corrective patterns will soon resume. 

    I’ve described it differently in other posts*  ... but basically, at any given point in time it is possible to reasonably project that ANY freakin wave ‘count’ / pattern will enfold.   It is just as reasonable to project that a nice 5 wave completion will go on to a nice 7 or 11 or 17 or whatever wave count as it is to project that the market will now have a ‘trend’ change.  At the end of any nice 3 wave corrective pattern, either projecting a huge 5 wave pattern unfolding in the other direction or projecting a long flat congestive pattern or another 3 wave correction pattern... or... all are equally reasonable.  Or, a pretty wave 1, 2, and 3 doesn’t not mean a pretty wave 5 will unfold.  Ie it’s just as reasonable to count it over and project that the next sequence will be corrective or a 5 wave impulsive move in the opposite direction. etc etc

     

     

     

    ... to get back to the unanswered question - So what do you propose as an alternate?

    Long ago I read Hurst.  In a short section of his book he mentioned it.  It didn’t sink in.  Then one day it really hit me.  There is no Elliott wave sequence or any other ‘technical’ price pattern that cannot be better explained via ‘summation of cycles’ ...

  5. Let me get this straight - if you’re ‘brownish’ from central america or the middle east or wherever, you can walk across the border unrestricted - ie without need of id, passport, visa, or vaccination(s) - and move directly onto the dole anywhere in the US you like

     

    BUT

     

    if you’re a little bit more than  ‘brownish’ ie you’re fkn black like a Haitian you’ll be sent back ‘home’ without recourse...

  7. Random Hypoc risy

    “A Gallup poll released in August reported that 81% of black respondents wanted the police presence in their community to remain the same or increase, while only 19% wanted it reduced...”  This little misunderstanding and a symbolic incident ( ie George Floyd grhs ... where we’ll never know what was going on btwn those two but looked a lot like a druggy ‘suicide by cop’) has only cost cities and citizens billions in property and income loss from riots peaceful protests by paid organized misfits / frontline useful idiots... and scores of local and national politicians yell defund the police / fund the community organizers with tax payer money  Hypoc = until the peaceful protests come to their neighborhood or offices then they scream for help from the police, sht then they yell for the ‘national guard’

    The Los Angeles teachers union (known as UTLA) has been fanatical about how unsafe it is to return to in-person instruction due to Covid-19. Hypoc = the Facebook group for members of UTLA: “Friendly reminder: If you are planning any trips for Spring Break, please keep that off of Social Media. It is hard to argue that it is unsafe for in-person instruction, if parents and the public see vacation photos and international travel.”

    https://mises.org/wire/why-green-new-deal-more-expensive-joe-biden-realizes Hypoc = ‘Joe Biden’ (not the guy, the bunch pulling his strings) does realize how ‘expensive’ and misappropriating of resources the green new deal will be ... and, despite the talking claims, they know full well it won’t do anything substantial to reduce social inequality and environmental injustice

  9. The nasty truth about the mRna ‘vaccines’ / gene ‘therapy’ - if someone’s immune system is fktup, injecting strands of ‘this’ spliced/glued to the coronas of ‘that’ will not trigger the body to build an immunity to that corona or anything else...

  10. Your choice

    Wear triple masks forever - because they have the “potential to slow the spread of COVID-19” [CDC]

    OR

    Rip the masks off - because in a study just released by [CDC] “mask mandates were associated with an average 1.32% decrease in the growth rates of COVID-19 cases and deaths”.  1.32% means masks did more harm than good

    ( plus ... considering that every fkn death was counted ‘covid’  instead of flu and pneumonia and just plain ole dyin’ old for months and months and months (and still is - higher billables) - even that 1.32% is high bullsht)

    ... just sayin


  11. Amazon censored Clarence Thomas PBS documentary during Black History Month… you don’t count as “black” unless you’re a member of the cult

    The ongoing cancel culture uses authoritarian tactics to deny others an equal playing field. Cancel culture does not inspire equality; instead, it creates the foundation for racism and discrimination to take hold. The cancel culture’s idea of “inclusiveness” and “equality” is achieved through force, social ostracization and censorship and is therefore nothing more than thought control and tyranny.

    Instead of relying on open debate and persuasion, they leverage manipulation  and shaming tactics to build and control their cult. Whether they are telling whites to be more black, or calling on whites to repent their white privilege, or censoring anyone, even blacks,  who have ‘conservative’ principles, the cancel culture cult wants to humiliate and control anyone they can - ideologically, behaviorally, and mentally. It’s all ultimately very damaging to the culture, to civil discourse, and to healthy human connections and relationships ... just sayin’


  12. crazyCza and crazyZdo always love a fresh new thread ... from 2013 :) 

     

    78% losers, 19% survivors, 3% thrivers - the cusps ...

    Generally speaking, most people who begin to “learn” to trade quickly experience that losses and mistakes seem to have a nasty tendency to be disproportionately way more costly than wins and being right are beneficial. There are so many other endeavors where that does not seem to be the case... so they move on.  Few persist in their “learning”  to pass the cusp where they can turn that (accurate for some systems, inaccurate for others) enigmatic impression and their performance to neutral / surviving ... and then even fewer persist ‘again’ even more assiduously to  turn wins and being right to being disproportionately more profitable than the losses and mistakes are costly... 

    Furthermore, most people don’t believe or see the necessity to ”learn” just as much about themselves as they do about objective trading methods, etc.  Most never realize that doing a ‘dual major’ in Self and Methods is required to get a good trading education and "learn" to trade. ... and, many who do realize the need still flunk out of one of the majors and never “learn” to trade.  Only a few persist in and complete both ‘majors’ ...


  13. Quote

     

    Politicians have too much power over our lives.

    Many used the pandemic as another excuse to take more.

    Early on, politicians declared that they would decide who was “essential.” Everyone else was told to stay home.

    Much of the economy stopped. Millions were laid off.

    Then politicians relaxed the rules for industries that they deemed “essential.”

    “You can’t just call somebody essential without implicitly suggesting that half the workforce is not essential,” points out Mike Rowe, host of the surprise hit TV series, “Dirty Jobs.”

    That’s a big problem, says Rowe, because people find purpose in work.

    Now the Biden administration is eager to give money to people not working. It’s pushing a new stimulus package that would pay the unemployed an additional $400/week.

    Since states like mine tack on as much as $500/week in unemployment benefits, many people learn that the $900/week. leaves them with more money if they don’t go back to work.

    So, many don’t.

    But staying home imposes costs, too. Calls to suicide hotlines are up. Domestic violence is up.

    “It’s happening because people simply don’t feel valued,” says Rowe.

    Politicians claim they save lives when they order businesses to close. When Governor Andrew Cuomo announced a lockdown, he said, “If everything we do saves just one life, I’ll be happy.”

    Rowe mocks that in my new video this week.

    “Let’s knock the speed limit down to 10 miles an hour… make cars out of rubber… make everybody wear a helmet,” he says. “Cars are a lot safer in the driveway… ships a lot safer when they don’t leave harbor, and people are safer when they sit quietly in their basements, but that’s not why cars, ships and people are on the planet.”

    Rowe points out that working and accomplishing things are big parts of what makes life worth living. He runs a foundation that gives scholarships to people to help them learn trades like construction.

    Of course, construction is dangerous. Some people get killed. Cuomo, should we stop building things?

    Rowe likes the phrase, “Safety third!” as a response to people who constantly preach, “Safety first!”

    “The ones who really get it done — they’re not out there talking about safety first. They know that other things come first… Every single time I’ve hurt myself, it’s always been in that fraction of a moment where I take my eye off the ball and I start to think that maybe somebody somewhere cares more about my well-being than me,” he says.

    Rowe says COVID-19 challenges us “to figure out how to live in a dangerous world. But guess what? That that’s always been the case.”

    He cites C.S. Lewis’ essay, “On Living in an Atomic Age,” in which Lewis asks:

    “How are we supposed to live in a world with atomic weapons when everything could be over like that? … (Lewis answered,) the same way we lived in a world when the Vikings could land on the shore a thousand years ago and raid villages.”

    There’s more to life than worrying about our death, writes Lewis: “We must resolutely train ourselves to feel that the survival of Man on this Earth… is not worth having unless it can be had by honorable and merciful means.”

    COVID-19 is “just different,” says Rowe. “We’d be well-advised to understand where the risks are. And then we’d be better advised to go about the business of living the only life we have.”

     

    https://pjmedia.com/columns/john-stossel/2021/03/03/mike-rowe-everyone-is-essential-n1429583

    “If everything we do saves just one life, I’ll be happy.” is a little example of the narrative being on completely out of phase with reality.  Cuomo, instead of saving lives, cost lives, caused needless suffering and loss.  The whole plandemic is a prime  example of the narrative being on completely out of phase with reality.   ... just sayin'


  14. The C1984 numbers  (cases, hospitalisations, deaths, ...whatever). are going down  sharply everywhere.  

    Here’s a health security narrative (ie the narrative you select from the narratives passed out by the administrative\media machine) - The vaccine fixed it.  Is that one yours?

    That’s not ‘your’ narrative? Then maybe  ‘your’ narrative (ie the narrative you select from the narratives passed out by the administrative\media machine. ) is - The lockdowns finally worked / are finally working.  Is that one yours?

    Shucks. That’s not ‘your’ narrative either? Then, maybe  ‘your’ narrative (ie the narrative you select from the narratives passed out by the administrative\media machine. Is that one yours?))  is - The masks.  In many public places, 99% of the peeps are masked up.

    Did the vaccine ‘fix’ it?  NO.  The numbers were plummeting before the vaccines gene therapies rolled out.

    Did the lockdowns ‘fix’ it?  NO.  Bottom line, the numbers plunged where there were lockdowns, but they also plunged where there had never been any lockdowns.

    Did the masks ‘fix’ it?  NO. (See post just above) Studies have repeatedly shown that masks do not significantly reduce transmission of viruses, so it’s safe to assume that a mask will in fact fail in this regard.  We now know that asymptomatic individuals — even if they test positive using a PCR test — are highly unlikely to be contagious. There must be a contagious person around, and they must be sufficiently close for transmission to occur. If that happens you’re ‘exposed’ no matter how good or how many masks you have on.  As for masking up when you’re healthy, let alone double, triple or quadruple masking, there’s simply no scientific consensus for that strategy.

    So what is making those numbers plummet from mid January forward?  Was it the fact  that all viruses run their course? Yes , little bit.  But the real reason -----

    Quote

     


    As you can see, the global decline in “Covid deaths”, [ cases, etc] starts in mid-to-late January.

    What else happened around that time?

    Well, on January 13th the WHO published a memo regarding the problem of asymptomatic cases being discovered by PCR tests, and suggesting any asymptomatic positive tests be repeated.

    This followed up their previous memo, instructing labs around the world to use lower cycle thresholds (CT values) for PCR tests, as values over 35 could produce false positives.

    Essentially, in two memos the WHO ensured future testing would be less likely to produce false positives and made it much harder to be labelled an “asymptomatic case”.

    In short, logic would suggest we’re not in fact seeing a “decline in Covid cases” or a “decrease in Covid deaths” at all.

    What we’re seeing is a decline in perfectly healthy people being labelled “covid cases” based on a false positive from an unreliable testing process. And we’re seeing fewer people dying of pneumonia, cancer or other disease have “Covid19” added to their death certificate based on testing criteria designed to inflate the pandemic.

     


    All this sht goes deeper than just good political timing... The ruling elite appropriates the available means at its disposal to effect its plans, including available ideologies, panics, etc etc.

    Believing falsehoods always eventually has a significant cost... just sayin'
