True dat! The neo-liberal must always paint "the others" as unenlightened knuckle draggers. It almost always begins with marginally intelligible declarations of the brave new world "they" have envisioned: All wrongs will be righted; all injustice will be made just (or, "just" so). All in the name of the perfected vision of the enlightened, for all of mankind. F*cked over by good intentions...

Yea, trading the "lesser time frames" day-in-day-out is a bit of a freak show at times. I discovered the brain attachment technique while studying "walking" meditation. Assemble your tool kit:"Leatherman tool", bailing wire, 5 gallon bucket, a plunger, dental floss, duct tape, and a coffee can (everything fits in the bucket)... A noisy oscillating fan is the best tool I've found, but I've fallen asleep in an MRI tube and woke up with a "chubby" (Ha! Not kidding). On an bleary-eyed early flight out, I always book that last seat at the back next to the engines... nothing but drool. It may not be your "thing", but it's mine (purchased for $4 at a garage sale). Gawd forbid: If anyone is searching for an "Ambassador Dyna-Flow" on Ebay... stop. While it does read "Ambassador" on the front grill, I made up the "dyna-flow" part (poetic license). I too am "out" for a while... don't catch my fuckin roof on fire (idiots).

Just sayin rumors: First Lady to launch campaign to curb "Cyber Bullying"... Gary Busey to announce 2020 presidential bid... more batshit crazy. Dennis Rodman to visit White House...

Don't know... I don't concern myself beyond the next 5 minutes... Janet Yellen states "not in our lifetime"... yikes! But still: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/global-borrowing-hits-record-big-143124971.html

Welcome back Mr. Zdo... did what I could to keep "it" alive in your absence... On returning to "flow": On a Friday about a week ago, I was struggling to stay in the moment; suffering a distracted mind. I hadn't gone full tilt "monkey mind", but the voice (s) was louder than is useful. The result was an uncharacteristic bit of ugly trading at the open... what to do (?). I have a "retro" oscillating fan in the office (metal blades/metal cage... think 50's), and it is noisy; a distraction to be sure. I did my "Curly dance" (think stooges) to blow off some steam, then settled back at the desk with the fan blowing. I've learned to attach my brain to outside stimulus (takes some practice, but anyone can learn)... a trade secret revealed. Back and forth... in and out... the airplane noise droned on, my brain attached to the sound, with eyes and instinct focused on the task at hand. Returned to "flow" by the "Ambassador Dyna-Flow".

I do respect the parrot...I go there myself... though I'm usually ashamed afterwards. The game of golf when played by "common" men is a "damn fine day", and it is a damn fine thing...this needs to be understood in it's full complexity. The game of golf can reveal a great deal about who you are (at the crux of your being). Few other games played can reveal so much, and in so little time, to the people around you... Edit: It's the magic of golf and (I would add) of trading. To me "it's that special"... just saying...

Good gawd damn... there are some people that you just cant take anywhere. Impeach the muthrfucr... do it now... find a reason... Golfers outraged after Donald Trump commits golf?s ?unforgivable? sin I've given the guy every chance and hoped for the best, but damn... what a pig. I've played many beer swilling public courses in my life, but never seen such poor behavior... FOMG. You bloated self absorbed fcking asshole. I love the game, and appreciate the hard work that goes into maintenance... fucking whitetrash pig. Everything else I could marginally live with: the lies, the over the top bullshit, even your doo, but this is outrageous. Find a reason... seems like more than enough to me. Edit: My head has exploded, and I'm channeling "deep state" now... please do your worst. "Mitsu" surely you must be enraged... how about it man? Have a good weekend all... it may be your last... enjoy. Edit again: If you've never played the game of golf and loved it, you may not understand what a huge character flaw has been revealed. President Clinton often cheated on his card (reproachable... and a character flaw to be sure) and we have seen the results of that. To drive a golf cart onto a green (even if you are the owner of said course) shows so much disrespect, not only for the game itself, but for those that will follow you. It is what it is... I can't see it otherwise.

My first expression was "Nah" which then changed to "well maybe" then back to "Nah...hell no": We're thinking of building a 'solar wall' on US-Mexico border, Trump says This was the image that came to mind that brought me back to "hell no"...

And again... more of the same... trade it as you see it:

Not much going on today... the "World" is still spinning; Trump is still Trump; something happened in the market (TF contract) around 9:40 (CT) that prompted a correction. If anyone has some insight as to what it was, please speak up (actually, don't speak up... because you'll probably be mistaken, and I really don't care... don't presume too much). Ambiguity... it's the spice of life. Posting this chart for Gamera (if you're still hanging out here. Also for anyone else... it's the way channels (PA) evolves...trade it as you see it): TF contract / 40T left / 5R right...

Stumbled across this article in my Sunday morning reading. Don't know that it's all that helpful to anyone, but none the less, posted for your entertainment: https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2017/06/the-normalization-of-conspiracy-culture/530688/ As to the post on Friday: "rumination"..."urination"...not much difference; just a dump of the unusable. On to bigger and better things. Note to "the gamera": I noticed that you are spending time reading this useless thread; you really do have better things to do with your time. I would offer advice, but you don't seem to be the sort that would listen... keep posting (it will all work out as it should... it's the kindest thing as I can honestly state it).

Well... as usual, I am mystified by US policy in the middle east (seems that I just get some personal issues resolved concerning "deep state" and then this nonsense comes up... trying not to presume too much): Trump Sells Weapons To Qatar Just Days After Accusing It Of Funding Terror | HuffPost Price action was alright today (glad to see some indecision in the markets... it's good for business). Started off the session with a crisp entry, that I then proceeded to bail on too early... then entered a couple of "gamera" trades that pinched me on a full stop (muthrfukr... old enough to know better). But... as I am a professional, I managed to right the ship, and scrape together a profitable day... salute (best damn job I ever had)... On a much lighter note: I made my yearly trek to Walmart to purchase new underwear, and socks yesterday. It may be that the new skivvies brought on the errant trading today... going to have to ruminate on that thought... enjoy the weekend.

Original sin? (nah)... I do like what the article has to say about blundering economic policy conducted by the govmnt, and the adherence to out-of-mode economic theory. Original Sin: Say?s Law - The Big Picture Excellent price action today... my kinda day. "It's A Perfect Storm Of Negativity" - Veteran Trader Rejoins The Dark Side | Zero Hedge

Sorry man... I can't do anything about stupid. If you want to rant; by all means get on with it (mits)... if you just want to post; by all means get on with it (Gamera)...just pointing out that possibly ya'll presume too much in many regards. Not much more to say...

Ha! And then the Queen replied: "Oh my, aren't you a bitter man"... "just sayin". A sense of humor is helpful in all regards: Imagine the prim and proper ole dame going off on the same rant as the Cock-a-too in the final clip. Old people behaving badly is always funny. Chill... relax... plenty more to come... what did you expect her to say? What... so she rolls up her sleeves to show some bullet wound scars from back-in-da-day. Com'on man...

I think I may have sustained worse injuries from bacon splatter (ha!). "Live at Five"... toon in. Possibly a bit of audacity lives in all of us... ER entry: $600 ER treatment: $1700 Paying off your medical bills through media coverage... priceless. The system works... enough said...

Smiles all around... glad to see it; best wishes going forward. There is something to be said for publicly funded healthcare ("smiles all around" may not be the case in the US). Regardless... it's good to be alive to soldier on (so to speak) whatever the circumstance. On a much lighter note: I would put our politicians up against any in the world (American exceptionalism) when it comes to "fucking yikes" audacity... Maxine Waters: From ?Most Corrupt? to Resistance Hero I do amuse myself: Maxine Waters for POTUS in 2020... it's time to have another aged crazy person carrying the torch... what a visionary I am.

Deep state in action, or just the ills of human kind (white folks at the time)? Largely Forgotten Osage Murders Reveal A Conspiracy Against Wealthy Native Americans : NPR Edit: In reading this interview the careful reader may take note that at one point the issue of national security was raised... again: "deep state" or something else? (one can presume too much; kinda depends on perspective, but usually it's just bullshit... just saying).

The "kiddie table" speaks: Essay: Anatomy of the Deep State | BillMoyers.com We (I) can (marginally) buy into this description of "deep state" (though me thinks this version still presumes too much). We (I) still remain Ignostic, as it's just not profitable to fill your head with such things... it's just the way the world works (no need to presume too much). The kiddie table will return the reader to the time honored phrase: "trade it as you see it".

Not a denier... just a simple Ignostic. Edit: anything can be traded with success, it's a only a matter of system specific solutions. Your conscience aside, one's view of deep state (on trades based upon that so-called knowledge) will yield satisfactory results with properly managed trades. Sometimes... 50/50 is good as it gets... we all know that. I salute your lack of "trading" ethics though (it all seems small at times... I agree).

Alright... This why I'm an Igonostic when it comes to "deep state"... "Another fkn deep state denier at work" : It seems to me that this person has clearly defined his view of deep state, for the time being. Will that change with the times... yea, I think so. Deep state is everything; the catch all fucking problem to everything under the sun... "It's deep state, man". Me thinks he presumes too much... just saying. "here's a stupid old man who never even heard of the deep state": That's not quite true. I've heard Mr. Paul refer to the Koch brothers and dark money as "deep state"... yet again another definition, by another purveyor of I have the answer and "it's deep state, man" Me thinks he presumes too much, and far too easily... just saying. It all becomes the "deep state boogey man" dogma. I have no use for the term... cant trade it because you can't define it... it's a notion... nothing more. What more would you expect of something called "deep state"? Edit: The saying goes: "it's hard to cheat an honest man". If one were to extrapolate that saying in all directions, could we conclude that "we are deep state"? Just saying... dwell for a moment...

Is this deep state in action? It's Not Just the Assembly Lines ? Robots Could Wipe Out 40 Percent of Retail Jobs - NBC News I'm old enough, that for a time, I wrote letters to family and friends (pen, paper, envelope and a stamp). Ha! We had phones... but there was always something greatly appreciated in the joy of receiving a penned letter from someone. Are we all any happier with efficiency in motion and thought? I doubt it. Pen a letter to someone you love. They will likely question your motives and well being (wtf?), but they may also feel that deep appreciation that I spoke of; if just for a moment. Edit: BTW... I rather enjoy speaking to cashiers (anyone else for that matter... possibly that comes from being self employed and working out of a home office... need my daily "people fix"). I would refer the reader back to post #216... Possibly Mz. June Chu could be more observant of her interactions with "common folk". The golden rule applies... be pleasant. Edit again: It's not all about "you"... ignorant fucking pig(s). Then again... maybe it is... "trade it as you see it"... Edit once again: Actually "it" is all about "me"... I will grace you with the kindness of "shutting the fuck up".
