Trade Journal for Dummies(Update)!
I think most are getting the understanding that “Manipulation” is part of dis-Game, hence, we suspect one more day of pain is in order for da-Shorts? It’s unfortunate that the Shorts did NOT know about the “Pre-Three-Holiday” prop up play or otherwise they could have avoided it!
I’m sure most know that the PPT can Not intervene without a “threat” to the financial markets, hence, we got a report being distributed in the middle of the week about a possible attack on the “Electric Grid”, yeah Right, this supposed “attack” allows the PPT to, well, do dare thing with “justification”, sweeeeeeeet!
Now we have to endure a GAP up and move higher Monday so they, da-PPT and its posse’, can get back out of the positions the acquired JAM-ing dis-Puppy UP!
Did anyone notice how they HELD the banks down all week painting pictures of them NOT partaking in any of the resurrectional stuff, how cool was dat! They held BAC between 7.00/ 7.50 Mon thru Thurs afternoon, then BAM, drop-r into the close and closed-r near 7.00, what a racket, the 9.00 and 10.00 calls were going for .08 and .03 cents respectively and the insiders (ones who new about the “WFC” pull-up earnings announcement, was dat legal), bought BAC and WFC calls for pennies and sold Friday for 10 to 13 times their entry cost, whatda, howda, dem Boyz, LOLOL!
In the mean-time, da-Game continues and its US against da-Boyz and we actually LIKE IT, LOL!
