Past couple of years I exited the crypto game (without selling), and joined the Stonks game. I am very informed on what I am doing because my hobby is trying to figure out just what in the hell is going on in this world. There's traders who use charts, there are traders who gamble with leverage, and there are traders who see the big picture (macro economics).
I'm more of the big picture trader. Now trading is very much a table of black jack. Of course you can be a whale and shift markets on your own, but little old me is just trying to play catch-up for many years of blind sighted macro calls. In 2009 I was that guy learning about the great ponzi and it's collapse. I understood the patient was brain dead and now being induced into a coma with very stale air. Unfortunately that air is running so stale the patient's lungs are all but destroyed.
As the crack from the lungs widen, the air comes out quicker from this fake economic system. We will all see shifts happen into certain sectors of the fake stonk market. It is all of course fake, but we are in a debt based system. Try playing by the old rules of barter or #gold or #silver assets into your convenience store. You can't transact without being held hostage in this artificially dead system. It's just the way it is.
So I matured and learned. Make digits go up on paper. That's this game. Keep assets within arms reach in the case the patient dies, but you have to play in the casino to get more digits. Of course we expect the patient to die in this system, only to be replaced by a dead dumby. Yah that would be the #CBDC. It might fool us for a while, but people will eventually go black market for what they really want. Quality of life including products and services will be expensive and garbage.
Within two years I have traded and made 51%. Sure you can make a lot more in the crypto market, but crypto is extremely volatile. Crypto is as well not as connected to political events. This is why it has been easier to make calls within the stonk market. Central banks are not stacking Bitcoin; they are stacking gold. Proof of that is recent news that Germany just sold their #BTC holdings. It's probably a very stupid move like Gordon Brown selling all of Britain's gold, but that's the way it is.
Perhaps I'm making the mistake as my 2009 grab ze gold play (which has never been sold btw). But now is my time to shine. I can hold my head high and say, "I told you so". Those that do not listen to the reticule and ignore it will eventually stay whole as long as your theory stays correct (in the long run). Something is happening in the world that is waking up to #GOLD. It's getting more expensive by the day.
Now of course timing the stock market crash will be difficult. Remember everything is thrown out when the market crashes (including GOLD). Just look at #BTC during convid. It went to $3000. So listen, it's not too late for the gold train, but in my honest opinion bearing an economic crash it's time to call a spade a spade.
