So, Like I Was Saying, Everything is Going to Collapse

My ETR purchase took cash levels down to 30%. I got cremated in many of my longs today. But, had I not sold yesterday, I would be attending my own funeral today.

Don’t be a zebra or a caitiff. Sell stocks and live to fight another day.

 

UPDATE: In light of poor market conditions, the generous folks at iBankCoin offer you a 5 day FREE TRIAL for The PPT. Enjoy.

      Yeah, uhhh incometrader, this is the internet…if people didn’t flip their opinions once a week, then something would be seriously wrong. ZH is consistent, read that bunk if you want consistency.

    “There will be betrayal, scandal !! and perfidy of epic proportions. But…the lion shall prevail. You see, the secret that I know is this, all of history is driven by the lion. We drag the poor zebra, kicking and braying, staining the earth with his cheap blood. History doesn’t remember us fondly, but the history is written by the zebra, for the zebra.”

      Do you have any insight as in to why the market is going to crash other than it’s been going up for five years so it must come down?

      • it is showtime

        With due respect. Yes.

        Crash? Well this may be the “big turn”. Notice I use May.
        Crashes occur from overleverage overmargin oneside trades

    The bottom will be Nov. 8 about 2:30.
    I know this because it is the date of the iBC Vegas conference.
    And if you want to spot Fly , he will be the one loading up his Doc Bags with pies and cakes (he like this) yelling BUY, BUY into the cell.
    He will also be leading a Happy B-Day song to iBC and Grandpa Fly.

          My brother is a podiatrist (or was) for about 25 years but after years of declining medicare and insurance payments along with increasing overhead he said screw it.
          Took early social security and a part time minimum wage job.
          Happy as a lark.

    Listen up. The Market has done several 180 moves. It is natural Le Fly would read it thus. Any catamites who cannot see this need to have their eyes gouged out with sticks, Good evening.

    Now that everyone has either gone to a big cash position or short, we flush in the morning while more people panic sell and shorts press their positions. The we close green Wednesday with Thursday up 1.5%.
