I'm getting beat up with my inverse ETF, but will see if they can keep the charade going through March.

Still, a lot of upside with my other investments, though I was waiting for a drop to get in most of my other commodities plays for the long term. BTC one last time too, to load up.

In March Ethereum will have a code name Shanghai upgrade that will unlock massive 16 million ETH.
If ETH selling too hard in March, it may drag down bitcoin too.

A we said simply we got no dog in this fight and sold a spac as the facts indicated only as doctor greyscale and mara poliferation of whales
and got the hell out for now also like way early with a premium. If it carves a bottum good for you since we seen the 74 percent spike like the rest of the crayons in the box. Sun Jan 09, 2022 10:07 am

MARA sold for some operation capex. Some think it was a very smart move for them. H was watching that sweeps.
Do what is best for you as march sweeps I will revisit doctor copper first now and doctor greyscale also.
MARA is a interesting view as I think they are hedging first to survive and guaging sentiment.
No clue as risk and probability do not meet.

Jobs report more likely to make the Fed smack these fools down some more, total clown world at this point, what a combination of FOMO buying and tightening, with previous hikes not quite having effect yet. A move down this month and in March is what we are looking at. I'm not washed out yet, just patient with the thesis.

The chart below shows the 1 minute volumes on Meta Platforms (Facebook, Instagram, etc.) for the past few days. I've circled a spike in the volume. That minute $400 million worth of this stock was traded. Almost all of this stock would have likely been purchased by one party. At the same time, almost all of it would have been sold by one party too, probably at a huge loss (since Meta is at approximately a 6 year low).

The points that are relevant to me about this are:

1. There are only a few parties in the world who would or even could be liquid enough to purchase this much of one stock all at once.
2. When this much stock is purchased the volume has to be there and most of the time it is not.
3. Because of 2., a party purchasing this much stock has to be early and probably knows they are early, but doesn't have a choice.
4. In similar past situations they are early but not by much and they almost always make good returns.

Today I read that the FCC Commissioner called for TikTok to be banned in the US. Whoever bought this stock probably knew that was coming.

Meta Platforms is at 186 this morning. Whoever bought in November doubled their money in 3 months.

A fake run. Great manipulation.

I am not familiar with USA law but in this country we would assume that it was a 'book over' deal which means that because it is a listed stock a sale agreement done outside of the exchange between a buyer and seller still needs to be recorded within the exchange. This also applies to related persons such as a subsidiary transfering shares to a holding company. A plausible thought perhaps?

The price pattern in the S&P is potentially set up for a massive collapse, in my opinion.

I've said before that 4200 is a very important level, but that I did not think the market would be able to get over it. Due to that, I thought there might be a serious challenge of that level after it was approached and rejected on February 2. However, the bulls to date have not been able to muster a serious challenge, but 2 weak challenges instead that form a declining series of tops short term from February 2.

Also, I have a possible cycle turn date of February 9 (today). In a strong market it may have been a temporary move over 4200. Instead, it is a lower high, which I interpret as being very bearish. If the market rejects from this level with a fast down move, my interpretation is the market has a good chance of never being up here again.

4200 and 3500 seem to me to be the important numbers the past 2 months. I'm not too interested in any levels besides those and their fibs. I'd be really surprised if the market could get over 4200 the rest of this year but wouldn't be surprised to see something over 4000.

It's still my guess that 4200 should cap this market and maybe 4000 will do it.

This is a good start. The chart is the S&P showing the 1 minute bars for today, with a drop in the past few minutes.
