...... I am sure I will be the scapegoat and the fake news will keep that image in motion and support the Deep State as they always do. se of the implosion.

Marty is the ideal scapegoat. He is a speculator, a enemy of the banks and he was already in prison.
When the next crash comes , they surely need scapegoat's. Not one, but several of them.

I any case. What I don't get is, why would the banksters still need the Socrates code. Now that Socrates has been released they could simply use it them self.
But of course , if only them would have the code, then they would be the only one's who'd have it.

I'm interrested in criticism, but please spare comments like, Armstrong is a fraud. I'm not interested.

That is an interesting question, and it appears that you have already answered it yourself.

I don't have the Socrates code, but I have a fairly good grasp of its complexity, or the lack of it because I have inspected hundreds of reports. This is in understatement, because I don't want to get into the details of what else I did. I am a computer programmer with decades of professional experience.

I am not into speculation especially not into conspiracy theories. I am interested in facts and high probability scenarios.

This story of someone actually wanting to get hold of the source code of this system in order to benefit from its forecasting ability is a distraction, a smoke screen.

For someone who is not able to question the quality of the system, this story projects the image of magic abilities. Therefore, it was useful for Armstrong for some time. Like UFOs are always useful for a good story.

As you discovered, this story is no longer a useful tool for Martin Armstrong because Socrates is now available for everyone as an online service. So why own the source code?

It is funny that someone in this forum raised the idea that the publicly available version of Socrates is not the real thing, and that the REAL computer system is only available to Martin Armstrong himself:

First, I can confirm from other sources that the system that MA made available to everyone as Socrates and the one he uses for himself are completely different. Many people are duped into believing this which is unfortunate. I also was hoping to get access to his famous buy/sell charts like this he posts on the blog occasionally but again never gonna happen (also confirmed). So basically if you think you are going to get access to the actual program he uses by buying a Socrates service, I would urge you to save your money.

That myth is exactly what some people need, people who believe in silver bullets, in the holy grail and so on. The only difference I can see is that Armstrong, because he owns the source code, can run some of his code in a type of custom research mode to produce custom reports that the system does not produce out of the box. But that is something else.

From my perspective, it would be very useful to get all of the source code and expose it publicly. I am convinced that it would be sobering for at least a couple of reasons:

1) We could see how simple it is because it actually does not do much

2) We could see ho many patches it contains to make the system APPEAR to work as advertised. Unfortunately, this is what the reports reveal, even without knowledge of the source code itself:

So after considering all this, my conclusion is that this code is not worth owning for forecasting purposes.

Martin Armstrong is a charlatan, and he spent 11 years in jail for a reason.
