And closed. That, ladies and gentlemen, is how you call out a perfect trade in real time and trade big when the setup is there. +7% on the account in just 5 minutes. I'd like to see Armstrong do that.

LMAO Cheesy. I think that's just called gambling, but your guess is as good as mine

Looks like Armstrong posted a new private blog for the US Share Market. Anyone care to post it? I mostly just care about the arrays.

I don't have the subscription so I don't know what the blog says

Me neither now that he no longer offers a free trial lol. How you been though? Its been a while since you stopped visiting Reddit wall street. How's the trading going?

Pretty good, how about yourself? Trading's been going fairly well. I do lose once in a while but its all good. Ironically, my best technique has been due to Armstrong's alignment theory. I took it and use it. It really is something special.

Same, I found a pretty good technique that works for me and I'm sticking to it. My goal is to make around 8-10% overall return per month and I have been succeeding. With compounding I should be a millionaire in 3 years haha. All jokes aside I think I do much better on my own and other people's opinion just cloud my judgement and I'm better off without it.

Nigel Farage to Address the WEC in Rome May 3rd & 4th

That is a big deal. It suggests that MA is indeed very-well-connected and internationally known. Subscriptions from Europeans will skyrocket.

Interesting. It would not surprise me. And MA, although there are some analysts that say the same thing Armstrong does, it isn't always the case and having read many of his viewpoints as well as history articles, I can say that I've never come across anyone else who can do the same. His analysis of inflation, rates, and so on are different, possibly unique, founded on a solid basis, and I do indeed believe some of his work should be in economic textbooks and taught internationally.

Anyone know what kind of turning point/price Armstrong thinks we can go to make a high into a downturn? Although he isn't always 100%, he has called multiple corrections accurately, I can attest to that. Just out of curiosity though.

Also, didn't Armstrong call for a high in real estate? I see IYR already made new highs recently. Perhaps it depends on the specific markets, as he did say that too. Also real vs nominal terms. I'm not trading it either way.

Do you have the latest private blog/arrays by any chance?

As mentioned previously, Armstrongs calls are at times too flexible and infrequent to trade accurately. Although the Dow did only touch the Weekly reversal, the other high of last week made things ambiguous, as well as the Friday/Tuesday high. So many makes it unusable. He wasn't wrong about the Weekly Reversal and mentioned that a close above would constitute a wrong call.

Also, I do better with my own system. Will probably just do that instead. Heck, maybe I should make my own service. Clear cut and works most of the time, with multiple calls daily.

How's your performance for the past 6, 12, 18 months? Are you getting consistent returns?

I got answers about his arrays before.  The bars ACTUALLY do mean the price levels, as he emailed me.  And I forgot where he said this, but he said that the price levels are relative only in THAT timeframe that is being plotted.  So you cannot compare the price levels between two different array plots.



See at 2hrs 23mins - https://vimeo.com/198896912  which confirms what you have written above:

"the bars relate to price levels..the array has to match price level activity.."

The highest bars reflect the most amount of cycles hitting at that moment in time.
It's not just the top composite bar that highlights price activity by the highest bars, it's also high bars shown the other levels such as Empirical etc..

Does anyone have the password for this video? I'd like to see it, thanks.

It used to be public. Not sure what happened.

Nope. I think the low's been seen already for the month, for the Dow at least. December is a turning point for some, but we'll see what he says. I use his general trend thesis stuff, but I don't rely on him.

Made a few trades and lost almost on everything. Shorted the real estate high which made up for all the losers, plus a decent gain. Came close to shorting the CMG high but decided not to open the trade Sad Cut losers, run winners, is how you win the game. Set alerts where the highs/lows should be, then open the trade where the algos trigger stops- that is, where your stop would be is actually the entry because that is cases is where they overextend into a reversal. Although it doesn't have to be. Armstrong's stuff isn't bad I think, but if one doesn't see the trade, there's no need to go after it. Supply and demand trading is where it's at, seriously. The 2016 consolidation highs of MMM can be drawn on the chart straight across. That was the recent volatility's low where I had set an alert. Some stocks will have an incredibly obvious bounce point, and MMM was one of them. During volatility, I try trading those super obvious and untested major spots. If it hasn't been tested, it shouldn't simply break through on its first try, it should have a bounce. Managed to catch the bottom. Sold it too quick, but you get the main point though. If XLU gets to 56.22, that should be a good short area and go down to about 55.3, for example. Google should bounce at slightly over 900. My trading style is different so I only go after the Armstrong ones when I understand the technicals involved on my own charts.

Are you up or down for 2018? (YTD performance)

Breakeven actually Sad still learning a lot of things, but getting better I hope. It's not easy

I'd consider breakeven a win given all the big losses you had earlier in the year. You mentioned that you went all in August Puts and lost a good chunk of your account. Most people end up losing all of it trying to get back to breakeven. You're doing well imo. Keep it up man. Keep posting trades.

Any crash signals from Armstrong yet Huh?  market looks like it is about to lose support...

He's probably busy preparing for the ECM and won't make any meaningful posts until that's done.

I seriously don't remember that he made ANY calls in respect the the recent market high.  He has NEVER said that those ARE the high.  And from this email, it is NOT clear whether they ARE the high.



Yea, me neither

While the Dow barely exceeded Friday's high on Monday, that was not the case in the NASDAQ.  Yet all three closed lower on Monday. We are still in this choppy consolidation. Since we did elect a Weekly Bullish on Friday in the Dow, that put us on warning that the decline would at least pause. This is why we NEVER enter trades in ANTICIPATION of anything. Only on the Reversals.

The NASDAQ made a new high today and the Dow did not. This is reflected in the Arrays which are different between the three indexes right now. Keep in mind that the NASDAQ peaked in August, S&P500 in September, and the DOW during the first week of October. So we should NOT expect all to behave in agreement. Nevertheless, this is also an indication that we are not looking at a MAJOR Crash that would reverse the long-term trend.

So NEVER NEVER NEVER Anticipate. Be dispassionate about the market for remember it is always going to be your own EMOTIONS that get the best of your judgement. ONLY trade on Reversals!!!!! Always let the market PROVE its direction. It is always the master of deception.

We are still in a position where we can make new lows before the elections. The number to watch is 267670 on the Cash S&P500. We stopped last week at 271051. So we have important support beneath last week's low that is not much further down. So do not get all bearish expecting the world just yet.

This is going to stay choppy into next week. The markets are still trying to figure out the direction as we have domestic players are bearish and international players more bearish on their home fronts. So this clash of views is responsible for the choppy pattern we should expect at this time.

The share markets should see some sort of a trend take shape for the elections.

Daily closings BELOW 276680 in the Cash S&P500, 24898 in the Dow, and 27400 in the NASDAQ would suggest that we will retest the lows.

REMEMBER - Position trading makes money - short-term trading more often than not loses money because people trade emotionally. Trade for the trend - not the daily swings without reversals!!!!


27400 in the Nadaq? I think he means 7400

in one post amstrong said:



By 2032, China will dethrone the United States to become the world’s leading economic powerhouse. This cycle has been exasperated by government mismanagement and failed economic policies centered in socialism. With special attention to the Chinese yuan and Shanghai composite, this report examines how, when, and why China will become the new financial capital of the world.

I think that is very realistic, because at this time only between America and China have already carried out a trade war that could result in the collapse of the economy in other countries.

Anyone have a link to the report (free)?

Today was a Directional Change. I do not have arrays on the daily timeframe beyond that, but it was a minor turning point as well, so today might be the low.

Week of 10/15 shows high volatility, but also the highest Composite reading. How do you interpret this?
