Retail is running around like headless chickens

I must have read about 200 posts across various subs in the last 24 hours where retail traders are losing their minds over 3 red days

Posted on this topic many many times before but many still don't seem to understand the game

Let me put it in layman's terms .... Wall st and big banking control the US stock market heck even the FED are in on it

NOTHING you are investing in fundamentally matters it is ALL A LIE

They orchestrate the bear and bull markets in their entirety the drive extreme euphoria suck Dumb retail bulls into it and then dump the entire market to scare them into selling whilst shorting that side of the trade and buying back cheap

They've been doing this since the inception of it

They do the reverse to bears although thats a bit different because they will just pump stocks that have high short interest to fry them and they know bears have shorter time frames to work with

Robinhood and all the other "free to trade" brokers are selling your live trading data to Wall st and other Tutes this is then analysed by A.I and the trading algorithms are then sent to do what they do best

If retail understood these very simple psychological games and just stopped trying to think they are the next Warren Buffets the markets would be much calmer and most would actually make a profit in the long run

But that is the only way

Trying to trade against these rigged systems or trying to do a basic " buy low sell high" is asking to get fucked

About 1 in 100,000,000 retail traders will understand this and thats why we will continue seeing chaos and volatility all year

I'll be sitting on the sidelines with popcorn watching the chaos unfold
