Trading Plan

Play the Manipulation Plan:

Predicted Scenario

• The FOMC announcements (Last Wednesday) results in a sharp drop starting 1 days prior to Powell speaks. Incomprehensible incompetence triggers loss of confidence. Which tends to end about 2 days later, usually Friday. This triggers 2 sell waves in addition to the organic weekend-exit wave.
• Sell Wave-1: Thurs observed a 5.8% drop in S&P as SPX – Incompetence Spook phase.
• Sell Wave-2: Margin calls trigger to and cause a 2nd sell wave which peaks Friday AM.
• Sell Wave-3 Drop spooks traders who won’t hold over a weekend.
• Selling triggers strong anti-drop engagement by PPT.
• Weak hands all flushed. The stunned and afraid are all out.
• Bottom on Friday afternoon when the FED starts buying 10Y debt & yield stabilizes. Why? Stabilized Yield halts the stock-price decline. No particular effect on stocks yet – but selling stops & floor is set.
• This is the buy-signal – but only on stable 10Y Yield.
• Weekend. Fed prints a shit-ton of $ and Plunge Protection Team kicks into high gear late Friday Afternoon across all exchanges. Stealth stabilizes price and prices gently increase. Mon AM – watch NIKKEI, HANG SENG, FTSE 100 & DAX as time-machine that generally leads NYSE. Up is good.
• Monday-shock Fed riggers pump $$$. Watch NFLX, (lowest cap FANG), for rise. Usually for gap-up, which tells SPX higher as FED-net buys aggressively.
• Monday PM. The world hasn’t ended. Buying ramps.
• Tues AM. Greed kicks in.
• Exit calls Tues PM, Hold on release of news good (China Deal & other BS) Exit on drop in 10Y yield drop EU & Asia indexes.
• Downside: 30% max loss
• Upside-10x to 1 trade yield.
• Estimated Success Probability ~60%

Selection Criteria

Selection Basis. These picks are based essential need of the FED to avoid a massive system crash due to banking system failure multiplied by the 3 wave dip-leverage.

They exploit reverse-risk-leverage. The FED is terrified of massive system failure – and sign weakness in the banks will trigger the big one. They have nothing to do with quality of the underlying stocks – only the urgent need of the FED to avoid any sign of weakness.

Influences:

• Greggory Mannarino
• Road to Roota
• Gerald Celente
• Federal Reserve Channel
• The Plunge Protection is Real
• qmap.pub – Political instability indicator – Bad news reinforces need to prop up markets & causes tradeable over-correction spikes.

Execution

Entered XLF & AG Fri AM during Fed Pump. Overpaid. Should have let the pump wave pass & bought in later in day during dip.

Sat Update – Alt News cycle starts to echo 2Q instability in Banking Sector. Predicted Fed response is to inflate Bank Stocks to project stability. Repos go to 4.3T to keep banks in business. Only choice appears to be to pump $$ into banks. Fed has $700B in rainy day funds to use in next 2 weeks. [Prop up the banks?]

Sources:

Strategy is to hold XLF pending Mon/Tues liquidity pump to lift Banks, etc. Normally these events would push market down, but will be used as cover to push insane amounts of liquidity into banks, $700B. I predict this will appear as a large boost to equity prices in the financial sector.

Hold AG. The boost to Banks will enable partial liquidation SLV shorts. This will enable SLV to rise, and Ag likely to react to normal buying from safe-asset buyers. Price likely to rise Wed/Thur next. Planned Thurs afternoon per recurring Thursday afternoon Silver Smackdown.
