If you haven't made a killing in this last couple days, why the fuck not?.. Some hard truths. Soz.

Everything is tanking.
From commodity markets,housing markets, stock markets, to crypto.

I never include physical precious metals - for they are real money, and subject to continual downward pressures to suppress it, by the powers that be.

The rest? (crypto, commodities and stocks)
Total manipulation (by bigger people than us), to transfer the wealth to 'them', from 'us'.
If you don't know that you're playing a rigged game, then you probably shouldn't be playing the game in the first place.

This 100 year financial cycle debacle is coming to an end.

Hodlers are the money manipulators best friend, never forget that.

They don't want you thinking on your feet, maneuvering assets to maximize your own profits.
Oh no, they want hodlers to stare into the lights of the oncoming future, doing jack shit, patiently waiting for fate to deal them the hand.
Sheep?
No, more like rabbits.

The only problem with passively waiting for fate to deal you your hand, is that the oncoming lights you can see - your future- are the cold headlights of the market manipulators (And they are not friendly).

You know the manipulators of this rigged game - they are the ones that are actually doing something while the hodlers do nothing.

If the enemy (us) are doing nothing to maneuver to gain advantage of position,(hodl), then 'they' also know that 'they' are on the winning side.

But how did you know BTC (et al), were going to tank @lucylin?

I didn't.

But I did have a pretty good clue that they were headed south.(common sense and a non myopic emotional attachment, to numbers displayed on a screen is a good start to seeing things as they are, instead of as you want them to be).

I'm working purely in Steem for this two months experiment.
Not dollars, not BTC not LTC.
Steem.

To 'short sell'(not strictly true, but I'll use that term here) Steem, (or btc /ltc), you simply have to put your value somewhere else.
I changed my Steem into dollars a couple of days ago. And waited.
I'm still waiting...

It looks like 'we' might be having a good 'Sunday splurge'.

My followers and upvoters will also be cashing in on my strategies with divided profits.
(...in terms of the amounts of steem - which is the 'base currency' in this little experiment of ours...)

If you aren't thinking on your feet, you'll be brought down by the hungrier predators.
And the manipulators are the biggest, meanest, fucking predators, that you are ever gonna come across.

While you might lose the fight by maneuvering your assets around. (through a basic lack of common sense, mostly).
You also might not lose the fight. You might be succesful.

But guess fucking what?

At least you tried to do something, and you didn't just sit there(hodling), waiting (and praying) for something totally out of your control, to be benevolent towards you.

THAT is a losing strategy.
