It was a fine year for stocks, world wide. President Trump proved to be just as retarded as everyone thought he’d be, also the funniest President this country has ever seen — unintentionally. The site has gone through many changes, most recently marked by a sudden resurgence of my trading fervor, casting aside political nonsense for Bitcoins and crypto proxies.
Heading into 2018, I am filled with optimism. Truthfully, it’s hard not to feel good after 12 perfect months in the S&P 500. We literally had zero down months, an anomaly that is absurd as the faux Russian scandals that grip half the nation. My singular hope for 2018 is true happenings — panic and fear on a monstrous scale. “The Fly” thrives best under extreme pressure, like an ancient piece of coal.
I want to thank all of you for reading, sticking with me during my phases. This most recent Sean Hannity phase must’ve been trying for many of you — so a tip of the hat and double shot of Jäger to you, virtually speaking.
I have big plans for the site in 2018, bringing in some new blogs, upgrading Exodus, and launching a crypto bootcamp. Personally, I’ll be starting up my advisory business, which will be 100% quantitative, using the sublime harmony of mathematical precision (SHOMP) inherent in Exodus. Also, I’m currently working on a joint project to build an open source platform for crypto-currencies — bringing my algorithms and ideas about market intelligence platforms to the ignorant planet of fintech crypto — the most retarded and backward place in all of finance.
On this final day of trading, 2017, stocks look to trade higher. Cryptos are strong, especially Ripple, and I think it’s time for us to celebrate early — perhaps pop some bottles of champagne at the desk, aiming for each other’s eyes — because these halcyon days will not last. They simply cannot.
My final accomplishment of 2017 was learning how to make mean homemade onion rings and pretzels. In his spare time, Le Fly enjoys to cook, listen to WQXR classical music or The 1920s Network on Tunein Radio, whilst drinking copious amounts of gin martinis or wine. I’m no longer a vegan — but I still do not eat meat and I do not crave it whatsoever. Fish is just fine for me. I’ve slacked at the gym the past 12 months — partly due to an elbow injury, partly due to keeping busy with other things, and I managed to write two books — something I would’ve thought to be impossible in late 2016.
Life is filled with surprises and if you had a bad year, keep your chin up — because 2018 might just be your turning point.

Peace and prosperity to all within the hallowed house of Exodus.
Lower high ..and this morning, a lower low on $DXY daily chart. Lower low on weekly is next target.
Dollar off since the new tax bill.
Thanks to you Fly. Been reading this site for years and a member of Exodus. I value all the insight into markets from everyone, but what I love the most is that I smile everyday reading this site. I’m a strong believer that if you have your health, friends/ family, and a sense of humor, you have a lot. Thanks for that, and a hope for a good 2018 and peace to you all.
Ripple!!
Fred Sanford was speaking to us long ago with this one.

Happy and Healthy New Year to all. Thank you Fly for doing what you do. Wishing you and your family the best for 2018.
I need to close a couple of loose ends. First, I’m waiting to receive your first book. As I said, while reading the second one, I realized that there was a first one that I had missed only to have you call me on it at the end of the second book. Nice.
I owe you a review (or reviews) depending on how many accounts I can tap into.
Lastly, check out CFT (CryptoForecast). I bring it to your attention not because it’s up 2100% in the past 24 hours but rather because they are into crypto forecasting which is what you do so well.
I’ll leave it there for now.
Best,
Metal
You da man, Fly. Happy New Year
Le Fly – I wish you much success in the New Year. Gone are the days of the 2.5″ thick ribeye; however, I suspect a late night drive is still in the cards.
I was with you in the blogspot days and remember it fondly.
Hey, slight spelling error on your amazon —> should be “world’s” no?
me, playing the word’s finest casino — the stock market.
Be good
In summary, Le Fly has become a millennial in 2017; Quitting the gym, going vegan, and becoming a crypto-currency guru.
LOL
Cool post, Doc Fly, and a Wealthy New Year to him and ye Fly Subs. Perhaps later in ’18 I will join this Exodus bullshit.
Wishing you and your family another great year and a sincere thank you for the current one.
The Walken picture made me laugh, great speech he gave the kid. The kind of Le Fly humor you can expect all of the time. Top Hat Funny.
Glad to have you back in the game of speculation sir. Here’s to a very prosperous 2018 indeud.
Hi leFly.
Will the below SEC law be applicable to you good sir?
I read you were going back into money management so just wondered. If so, what happens to this grand blog?

Merci and have a wonderful New Year.
Nice Gold call Senor Fly.
Yes, look at the GLD long term chart (decade). $1400+ looks like a good target for 2018.
Damn look at QIWI go.
