The house always wins, you will never outperform it. Your goal i
I’ve never been one to shy away from the harsher realities of participating in the financial markets. If you follow me on social media, you’re likely no stranger to my beliefs in showing both sides of the digital coin.
To successfully play in this field, you first need to have a general awareness of your importance within the market, which is none. We tend to be rather fragile when it comes to the ego being rattled, it’s not easy for most to accept that they are an irrelevant metric in the market they choose to dabble in. It’s even harder when the ego has something to prove and believes it deserves to be crowned a winner of the markets.
You never truly conquer the art of trading, anyone carrying such a belief has been humbled quickly by the unpredictable shifts in the behaviour of the financial markets. It’s an endless battle, faced against an opponent with the capability of never allowing you to know its next move. Blindly challenging such an enemy is a foolish approach, especially if you’re repetitively going in for the same method of attack with little success. The opponent knows you better than you know yourself, it already knows the likelihood of where you’ll attack. This opponent has mastered the art of hunting and thrives on the consumption of those who fall for the bait. It learns from its feeding habits, it inherently possesses a very large appetite, and greed drives it to feed on the swarms of smaller prey blindly running into its trap.
The financial markets are interconnected with almost every aspect of our current reality.
The mainstream media, global economy, and politics are just a handful to mention. All of these carry one key similarity, centralisation. A concentration of power is left in the hands of those who thrive on the dominance they have instilled over mankind. To retain such status is no easy task, you certainly cannot achieve it without pulling a few strings and manipulating your way to the top.
In Crypto, we have a fear and greed index as an additional means of gauging market sentiment. We do not necessarily see this in any other market, which should speak for itself in terms of how critical the role of emotions are in this game.
Those pulling the strings are also driven by greed, the difference being their positions of power and financial backing allow them to pursue this greed in manners we are unable to replicate. Everything is driven by fear and greed. Fear is the creator of missed opportunities, and Greed is the creator of financial losses.
Those at the top of the pyramid have the capabilities to move the price of an asset to pre-specified levels, whilst manufacturing candlestick patterns and formations throughout the process. What you see on your charts are showcasing the exact moves of the puppet masters, the candlesticks provide a live stream of the systems movements at work for all to see. It’s wise to monitor the candles with an understanding that every movement to the upside or downside is being driven by a selection of conscious entities. We often view the markets purely on the basis that the candlesticks represent a buying or selling frenzy, we tend to forget that in liquid markets a larger allocation of capital is required to shift the market, alongside the help of algorithms. The retail capital alone isn’t necessarily enough to move the markets unless, of course, the majority are grouped to orchestrate moves in advance. Even in such a case, that would still result in centralisation of power.
I was humbled incredibly quick when it started to dawn on me that this was all a setup. It’s a classic tactic, we can see this replicated within the educational and rat-race systems. Both were intended to spit out carbon-copied products, all programmed with the same beliefs and slave mindset. The entire system of life being rigged is no secret, it doesn’t take much to figure that one out. I figured if the entire system is rigged, and those rigging the system are influencing the markets, it’s likely the same methodologies of the puppet masters would be replicated in the markets.
They always follow the same rulebook. The tactics have been replicated all over the world for decades.
It’s up to you to figure out the patterns.
We’re usually unaware of how significantly we have been programmed to run on auto-pilot throughout our life, questioning little, and operating without much thought. We forget that the education we're taught also derives from centralised sources, and these entities do not necessarily have our best intentions at heart.
Always remember that participation in the financial markets is a dangerous game without an understanding of the arena you have willingly thrown yourself in. You are being hunted at all times. The very moment you enter, you are being led towards the next trap to get you slaughtered. You cannot enter the enemy territory and expect the enemy to have your best intentions in their mind. You are taught to be bait, and most never figure out why they continue becoming it.
Your goal is to accept that you are always the bait in this game. Your purpose in this game isn’t to become the hunter, it’s to follow the hunters, and gently make it to the other side. Detach from the herd, take a step back, and let the other bait amongst you take the hit first, their herd-like mentality will lead to a fate that paves the way for you.
