Audit the Fed bill now watered down
Market Oracle: Did Bankster's Crash the Stock Market to Send a Message to Congress?
We believe that it may have been a clear message sent to our elected officials, resulting in major changes to Ron Paul’s Audit the Fed bill, essentially gutting the provisions that we require transparency and disclosure about the Federal Reserve’s global monetary policy.

Riiiiiight. A horde of fabulously wealthy investors magically coordinated their actions to send a very obscure signal, rather than just using the time-honoured method of hiring lobbyists and corruption and bribery donations and campaign contributions.

Why does everything have to get reduced to this level of madness?
An unusual order(s), which may or may not have been an error, triggered the algorithms of HFC computers and things spiralled. HPC computers are not as autonomous as people think and there is always a team behind them. When things got crazy the plug was pulled on several of the larger computers, which effectively removed all the buy orders from the market. When prices got stupid cheap, people saw an opportunity to buy. This buying triggered some more algorithms and the prices shot back up. I might not be exactly correct but that is the consensus of people who actually work in the business

Apparently this 100 point S&P 500 crash was also seen in April 2000 when Saturn and Uranus lined up in a 90/180 formation to the Earth

And then there is a "Full Cardinal Climax" forecast for August 2010 which could signal a massive stocks crash in October,
Rare “Cardinal Climax” Planetary Alignment This Summer Puts Stocks at Risk, says Veteran Sky Watcher
http://seekingalpha.com/instablog/234091-hewitt-heiserman/61457-rare-cardinal-climax-planetary-alignment-this-summer-puts-stocks-at-risk-says-veteran-sky-watcher?source=new_post_submission
“On August 1, 2010, give or take a week, we’ll have the most five-planet alignments in perhaps thousands of years. Known as the “Cardinal Climax,” this is the meanest, nastiest, most challenging and most transformational of any planetary phenomena in all of written history!”
What about the October 1987 crash?
“On Aug. 24, 1987, planets were in the tightest five-body “conjunction,” or same ecliptic longitude, in at least 800 years. “It doesn't get any better than this,” I reasoned. Therefore, “A severe decline will follow,” I told subscribers. Turns out, Aug. 24, 1987 was the top. From that alignment high to the Oct. 20, 1987 low, the Dow fell 33%. A difficult planetary alignment preceded a difficult stock market.”

Many different models are lining up this October for this biggest crash in history
Calleman - resonates with crash of Soviet Union and Nikkei bubble bursting
Astrology - Biggest “Cardinal Climax" in 1000's of years
Timewave zero - Resonates with the Long Depression 1873-79
Elliott Wave - Grand Super cycle - Elliot wave 4 crash as defined by Bob Prechter

Give me f****** strength.
Why does HPC's Russell Grant get given so much airtime? It's utter drivel.
I thought we'd reached the bottom of the barrel when I last checked on here to find S2R1 resonating the release of the Musical 'Grease' with the country 'Greece'. Now it appears, the velvet clad, pseudo-wizard has deepened the barrel by a few more inches.
Please don't stop though. I use your posts as a Seroquel substitute and it's saving me a fortune.

I remember it well. It was categorically proven to have been a trader mistake that caused that one. The mistaken trade actually ended up making his firm some money, so he was red faced but still employed. Inexperience and nerves (he was new) caused it rather than the influence of Saturn and Uranus.
Str1, I enjoy your eccentricity but some of us have been working at this game long before you trained your spotlight on the markets. No disrespect but I look forward to the day when you and the other ‘eccentrics’ move on to new subjects. I almost look back fondly on the days when you lot focused on Elvis, JFK and 9/11.

It's all obsure mate. That's how it fools the masses.
The masses are even fooled on a logical level, such is the boldness and contempt for them. Who is 'Barry Soetoro' D'oh!!!
Little clues. This is so painful.

Flash,
What you don't understand is that this is the end-game of the powerful corporations (banks, big Energy and big Pharma) that have enslaved the masses into their products/systems. Over the next 16 months it is all going to come crashing down.
IMHO first up with their head on the block are the pharmaceuticals; with a colloidal silver revolution.

flashman,
It is well known that the lunar cycle affects the behavior of humans on earth. Where do you think the word lunatic comes from?
How do you trade? It is with the recognition of patterns. You identify a pattern and then make your trade.
What has been identified in the article is a pattern of the S&P 500 crashing 100 points. Just because the pattern doesn’t fit inside your scope of understanding it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
All the models I follow all have a common theme; recognition of patterns – so in effect we are not too dissimilar. The big difference is that my scope is not limited to just trading markets. Come to think of it there is no limit to my scope and why should there be.
14. flashman said...
str1: I don't trade in the way that you understand. Any trades that are placed by my firm are executed as part of a hedging strategy, on behalf of clients. We do not therefore use patterns or charts. I do not believe in pattern trading. To me its little more than voodoo

S2R1,
Srinivasa Ramanujan was certainly right when Godfrey Hardy visited him in hospital, unfortunately your observations seem similar in nature to me.
I like the way you call October though - if history is anything to go by! ...but then, if history is anything to go by, one thing is sure, it shouts out loud and clear "Don't listen to me, you'll get burned".
How about trying to use some analysis based on logic rather than aimlessly wading through the infinite possible correlations - just some friendly advice to stop you losing ~20% a year (my best guess).
If, however, you actually have found the magic key, then my advice would be to keep schtum - both for your profits and your own personal safety.
16. sold 2 rent 1 said...
51ck-6-51x,
Thanks for the advice.
Maybe I should "keep schtum" as there are some pretty big dates coming up in the next few weeks.

"It is well known that the lunar cycle affects the behavior of humans on earth. Where do you think the word lunatic comes from?"
This is begging the question (I'm using the phrase in its original sense), i.e., assuming the very thing you're trying to prove. Why do I know the lunar cycle affects human behaviour? Because others say so, and they must be right because they have developed a word for it. This is just kicking the can down the road. There's also a big leap from the lunar cycle affecting human behaviour to its affecting all human behaviour, including collective behaviour that's highly mediated by the kinds of technicalities outlined by Flashman.

As to conspiracy theories, my favourite one is that Lady Diana was seen alive minutes before the car crash. Or that the missing 20th hijacker was in fact George W Bush.

Oh yes - and Elvis was driving the car in which James Dean crashed. If you sing the EU national anthem backwards it sounds like "Here's to my sweet Satan". Marylin Monroe was actually a transvestite, that's why JFK had him/her murdered, because he was so embarrased about spending a night with him/her.

S2R1 said, "Global consciousness can't go faster than its intended speed."
1) As I understand it, it is more a singularity than an accumulation; sure, the underlying necessities are no doubt accumulated, but there is also, almost certainly, a critical attractor (i.e its a system displaying self-organised criticality - like the formation of plumes in a pot coming to the boil or the hight of a heap of sand during it's formation from grains).
2) The application of intention, unless you refer to the intention of a supra-universal entity (e.g. a God), implies an initial, subjective cause, rather than a fact of objective nature.
I think you would be better to write something like "Global consciousness will occur at the same time regardless of our own desires", unless, that is, you disagree with one of the above points - of course let me know if you do.
25. sold 2 rent 1 said...
51ck-6-51x,
Need to read up more on self-organised criticality, but this sounds about right.
Global consciousness "event horizon" will occur at a predetermined time regardless of our own desires.
Whether the same is true for the consciousness singularity is not clear, as all models break down between the event horizon and singularity.
However the rate of change of global consciousness has a set course (exponential in nature) and must stay on target so the event horizon date is reached at the correct time.
As for God, here are the opening lines to the Kymatica film.
“Evolution is a term to define only one organism and that’s the self. The self is the universe, the self is the alpha and omega, god, and infinity, and that’s the only thing that evolves because we are all part of the self. Nothing goes through an evolutionary process alone or without direct benefit to the whole. So when you begin to think that there’s this controlling elite, this controlling hand behind the curtains leading the planet to destruction…”
“When you think the end is near, the apocalypse, Armageddon, and when you think we as a species are doomed, it is not they, it is you that brought this about, and for a very good reason. You are evolving. Stop blaming everybody and everything else. Quit panicking about global tyranny and natural disaster and pay attention, because the world is telling you something; it’s tell you exactly what is wrong with you and how to fix it. (Excerpt from the film)”
26. 51ck-6-51x said...
S2R1,
Yes, the "event horizon", as per a system with self-organised criticality reaching it's critical point - at this point the correlation between perturbation and response breaks down entirely, hence it is suddenly entirely unpredictable what the effect of the next perturbation will be, although it is not uncertain (i.e. dropping a grain of sand onto a pile which has reached the critical point could have no effect or could cause such a massive avalanche that the whole pile collapses to a pile of sand with a maximum hight of one grain, or anything in-between, but nothing else, at least with this system in isolation).
"The self is the universe, the self is the alpha and omega, god, and infinity"
- kind of like the Gaia hypothesis but on a supra-universe, rather than planetary, scale then - fits with some of the teachings of Gautama Buddha too.
I realise that if the g.c. is a universal truth then everything becomes linked into a necessary feedback mechanism, hence things become predictable - I don't like that much though as it seems to detract somewhat from impermanence (anicca) so it kind of breaks down for me. I reckon it's pretty likely that neither of us are right on the money (As I'm sure you know I am always interested, but sceptical).

28. sold 2 rent 1 said...
51ck-6-51x,
Nice discussion and a break from the usual incoming flak,
I think the pile of sand analogy is much too simple. I like to use Stephen Hawking’s black hole singularity as this is extremely complex and at the heart of our search for understanding what reality is.
Your sand analogy takes no account of the truth about gravity, the composition of matter, or the true nature of time itself into account. All three things are a function of light and can be manipulated. All these items are up for grabs after the event horizon, so I disagree about the outcomes being uncertain.
There are reasons to believe that the time of the singularity as defined by Calleman will be exact, but this will mark the end of time as we know it.
IMHO I think the event horizon will enable a merging of the physical world with the spiritual world which is pretty much unimaginable.
In summary infinity will rediscover itself.
