Well, GOLD is making new highs today above the monthly reversal number. The most recent blog post hinted at another pullback, but did say it could go up (both sides covered) Remember the mid 1360s is a monthly close number so you can sit on your hands and miss a breakout or jump in with a stop under the reversal.
My TA shows negative divergence with the RSI and MACD ...so is this a fall move? Bull trap?
However, there is a nice inverse correlation between Gold and USDJPY. JPY is breaking down so this may indicate that gold has lots of room to move up.
Topic: Martin Armstrong Discussion - page 116. (Read 647054 times)
We are supposed to discuss his private blogs .why do this website keep blabbering about those side topics that don't benefits anyone
??
Martin cannot be right all the time because he does not use the time factor ..but he is right generally on the broad side .major reversal signal. That should give traders an edge. Big trades are made only a few time a year.
Since the latest post from ArmstrongEconomics.com is on Wolrd War 3 (Again), and he happened to put out a Cycle of War report which I got from my friend in 2013/2014, let us review his long-term forecast record:
https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/world-news/war/world-war-iii-2024-2027/
I'm taking just snippets from his report from 2013. Most of the timeframe covered has already expired, and so there is no longer any viable value in whatever I put out here:
First and foremost, Armstrong said that the wavelength for the cycle of war is about 25 years. This is available on his public blog, where he shows 25 years between WWI (1914), WWII (1939), Tonkin Guilt (1964), China Tienanmen event (1989). From the last event, he added 25, and he got to 2014.
And then, giving himself quite some leeway, he said that the intensity of war/civil unrest will pick up from year 1 (2014) to year 6 (2019), peaking at the final two years. That covers 6 years out of 25 years of the cycle length of war. I could kind of understand his year 1 to year 6, since he kind of mimic the timeline from past WW, which is kind of over by then. Below is the quote from his report:
Quote
As the economy declines in Europe, we will see this anti-foreigner atmosphere spread among Eurozone members against other members. The year 2016 should be the start of a nasty economic decline.
....
We could see things get real bad during the 2016-2020 economic decline as capital flees public
sectors and we face serious local defaults on debts both in Europe and the United States.
The peak of the next 8.6 Year Wave on the ECM is lining up with the possible 26 year low in
the Euro where we could see also the high in gold.

the Euro where we could see also the high in gold.
The above boldface is mine. So where is the NASTY economic decline, when we are in year 2019?
This year is supposedly the final year in the highest intensity for Armstrong's war cycle. Just tell me how it feels from 2014 to 2019 in terms of civil unrest & war?
But amazingly, charlatan Martin Armstrong continues on his War Cycle in the latest post:
Quote
The War Cycle is turning up and we are looking at a possible peak "as early as" 2027. This is why I have been concerned about the economic crisis in 2021-2022. Once the economy turns down, it will be the fuel for the war.
We must also respect that this particular cycle is the combination of both civil and international unrest.
We must also respect that this particular cycle is the combination of both civil and international unrest.
So let's analyze a little bit.
1. He said "as early as" 2027. That means if in 2027 nothing happens, he is not wrong. He doesn't say how late it will be, but we all know that war cycle length is 25 years, which is basically from 2014 to 2039 for a full cycle. SUPPOSEDLY based on his War report, the most intense year is 2019, starting from 2014. WOW, I mean, that is quite OFF, especially for a cycle length of just 25 years. Why is he changing to 2027? He thinks nobody remembers?
2. Then he repeats about "THE economic crisis". But he SAID the economic decline was from 2016. Now it's 2019, and stocks are near all-time high. Euro didn't collapse. But he again push the time-frame further into future to 2021-2022. Did you know that if you repeat the same thing over and over again, you will eventually get it right? But TIMING is the key to profitable trades.
3. At last, he tries to cover more ground by mentioning that it's both civil and international unrest.
The War Cycle report was 72 pages long, with 0.5 page of incorrect "forecast", and 71.5 pages of past history. That low percentage is always true for all of Armstrong's pricey "historical" reports.
In any case, apparently, Armstrong does NOT understand what it means by CYCLE. A cycle has a HIGH and a LOW. Once the cycle completes, if it started at the HIGH, it goes back to HIGH. That's a completed CYCLE. Since his war cycle is 25 years, and he pins it at 1914/1939/1964/1989/2014, by the time that you are HALF-WAY through the cycle, the war intensity should be at the LOW side. Assuming the the LOW happens exactly at mid-way, that will be 2026.5.
But charlatan Armstrong is saying that 2027 as the peak, when in his War Cycle Report, he clearly stated that it's from 2014 to 2019, peaking at the 6th year.
HOW CAN the war cycle low becomes the HIGH intensity?
Oh, that is just another cycle inversion that he forgot to mention, I tell you. Anytime that Armstrong is WRONG, he always has a term for it. Don't worry. That is his "great" forecasting record.
Give me a break. Sounds like Martin Armstrong's support person. True Armstrong style.
Wish I was. I would probably be able to find someone to clear the fog around arrays for me.
You did choose nicely what suits you and gave reference to the reversal system (which I referenced as trading strategies).
Socrates manual says you should combine the info, but not exactly how.
That's why I think it is not a system. System should be clearly defined, and Socrates use definitely isn't.
I just realized this.
Check clause 14. of https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/about/terms-and-conditions-of-use/ !
Have you ever thought that giving clear buy/sell signals - investment advice would jeopardize the company. It is probably not licensed for such purpose.
I don't know all the details in the USA, but I definitely would not want to go through this compliance pain in my country.
How about commenting the other part of my post?
On the talk about how rich MA is, it turns out he LOST his appeal over the forfeiture of his personal assets back in April of this year. If he did acquire those assets legitimately, then I do feel for him.
Those assets, mainly ancient coins by the sounds of it, were valued at US$80m:
https://www.law.com/newyorklawjournal/2019/04/23/ex-trader-armstrong-loses-appeal-over-personal-property-liquidation/
Curiously, those assets may have been worth a lot more than that, since US$80m was the precise amount of his restitution that was ordered back in 2007:
https://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/11/business/worldbusiness/11iht-contempt.1.5226724.html
So he clearly does have a lot of wealth, and who knows how much more was hidden away?
Related to that restitution order, Armstrong was also banned from "trading, applying for registration, engaging in any activity requiring registration or acting as a principal of any registered entity or person". That ties into my theory about him now tapping up the retail market with reports and conferences. He might be banned for life offering financial consulting services to institutional investors. That might also explain the cultist hype and clever ambiguity of his ECM - there isn't anyone in authority or with experience to question it.
https://www.hedgeweek.com/2009/08/25/martin-armstrong-and-two-firms-pay-usd27m-anti-fraud-action
Also found this as an interesting read into what MA was up to back in 1999. There is a detailed description that I have not come across:
https://www.businessinsurance.com/article/20040523/STORY/100014712?template=printart&template=printart
I still theorise he made some terrible gambles with the tobashi scheme his was running, in the hope those gambles would come good. He then walks off a billionaire, and the investors get their money back. Instead, when it all started going wrong, he then fell into gambler's fallacy and started making bigger and bigger losses. Maybe those losses would have eventually turned good, but it was too late. His brokerage bank found out about the losses/fraud as part of their due diligence before being sold to HSBC. Were it not for that perhaps MA really would be the world's richest man. As he always reminds his readers, it is just a matter of timing.

The following of my opinions assume that the government version of Armstrong story is correct:
Based on SEC lawsuit, Armstrong ran a Ponzi scheme, and incurred huge losses to their investors. Why would Armstrong blamed on the traders who executed the trades for him? That in a way already admitted that there were ACTUAL LOSSES.
Armstrong obviously set the management fee on the phantom gain of client's portfolio. When you do that, you can obviously be very wealthy, since you're just stealing from clients. And so ANY assets acquired (or not) should be used to repay the investors. 80 million is most likely not sufficient to repay the investors.
He is obviously BANNED in the institutional services. But no laws against anybody who publish their opinions about stock market, since it is protected by the first amendment. The only huge problem that I have is that Armstrong is just NOT HONEST (like many other stock newsletter writers, except that he is the best liar). In all likelihood, his "AI" spits out unusable rubbish, but he call his system "legendary".
For certain, he stashed away something. He was selling his Roman coins on his own website. No one would know how much more, but as far as I could understand from reading all the legal docs, that is the part of his contempt of the court, unwilling to produce the assets for the court.
Socrates and AI (Artificial Intelligence)
Martin Armstrong mentioned in his public blog numerous times, that his computer uses AI.
However, when someone reported to him another trading method actually using AI (neural networks), he dismisses the concept, saying he tried it unsuccessfully.
https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/armstrongeconomics101/ai-computers/true-ai-and-fake-neural-net-forecasting-programs/
So is he the father of a new otherwise unknown AI concept (true AI) far too complex for other people to understand?

I'm familiar with neural nets, and what he said in that post actually showed his inability of using it. If anything, it is his Socrates that is rudimentary. You need huge farm of GPU to do neural nets on financial markets, and he most likely has no understanding. He also said that GMW had
Quote
The GMW has now exceeded 150,000 possible patterns each day and counting.
As I have said in previous posts, having 150000 "possible" patterns (and counting) is TOTALLY LUDICROUS. NOT even a single pattern he can trade off that to make a profit, when you don't even have some probability distribution that shows any profitable opportunities. I believe his "pattern recognition" is probably something like forming patterns of up/dn/up/dn (or adding percentage), along with different timeframe on daily/weekly/monthly. That's like forming rubbish English sentences with A-Z, and call them as patterns (without any probability forecasting ability).
And Armstrong said at the end, "Show me the data". Well, when trulycoined questioned him during WEC on the data accuracy and source, what did he respond???
Armstrong is a person with double-standard.
Would be interesting to see what gold does at 1362.
MA has been yelling for a long time that that is an important monthly bullish.
Gold is now trading at ~1354

Here we go:
Last sentence in a Socrates report:
We have generated a sell signal, so some caution is required.
So either this is a sell signal, or if it is not then it is garbage.
Martin Armstrong is a charlatan, and he spent 11 years in jail for that reason but he has not changed.

And then what? Everybody wins with that knowledge? Question: Who takes the other side of the trade?
Obviously, you are not using it, so it's not everybody. He wrote there will always be enough skeptics.
BTW, I did try a few trades with currencies which bounced precisely of reversal without using any arrays and that seems to work good. Trick is to be patient and wait for bounce (look for pin bar or similar pattern). Very low risk trades. Profit was 5-10 times the risk, so I am fine with that.

AI and machine learning doesn't have all possible data, but identifies the patterns in old to recognize new.For the Superposition Reversals,
These are rare. Stop loss is enough to handle this, I think.
Quote from that article: A computer will not be able to learn all scenarios if the data does not cover all scenarios. Plain and simple. Just ask - SHOW ME THE DATA and WHERE DID YOU GET IT?
...
...
I have done a fair bit of neural network and evolutionary programming to predict time series and to optimize trading strategies. Stuff that far exceeds in complexity what Martin Armstrong is doing with his disaster code.
True, if you had all the data in all dimensions, a few supercomputers and hordes of programmers and analysts, you would be able to make some predictions with that. But in comparison with the pattern matching machinery in a single human brain, it would still be lacking. The human pattern matching ability is absolutely unmatched in quality. Just try. Look at thousands of charts and keep trading - you will get better and better. If you are still getting frustrated, and you will, guaranteed, then there are reasons for that: Mainly unpredictability and greed. It is as simple as that. There are events that come out of the blue, market manipulation, insider trading, just market participants trying to out-smart each other. That's the game, and it is unpredictable, random to a large extent. It is similar to getting sea-sick in a ship.
Martin Armstrong keeps telling his audience in his blogs that only his computer can manage the complexity. I do not believe it. First we know it can't be true based on the experience that has been documented here in this great blog. I have demonstrated here that Socrates is dumb. It does not even try to consolidate multiple conflicting signals. Second, we can't believe Martin's statements because he has a clear motive to sell his computer- based Socrates junk, the reports and the conferences. Third, and most importantly, all his models look only at a single time series, the market under study. The future price movement is just not hidden in the past price history as he wants us to believe. It does not matter how far back that time series goes - we know that it does not work.
And now I am going full circle. If the future price movement was in fact predictable from past price movement, then with the human pattern matching ability available to thousands if not millions, this would have been discovered long ago.
And then what? Everybody wins with that knowledge? Question: Who takes the other side of the trade?

Zero Intelligence in Socrates
In Socrates, depending on subscription level, one gets on a daily level a signal:
False reaction for now on this level
This is a bearish signal, essentially noting that a bounce has gone too far up, and a move back down can be expected. It is based on pattern matches.
However, these signals may be generated at the same time with the election of daily bullish reversals, creating a conflict that is not mentioned in the reports.
There is absolutely no coordination between ANY of the signals, no attempt to resolve such conflicts.

Hmm. I wonder how the superposition thing should be dealt with when testing. Does the attempt to test the next Reversal get invalidated or not, eg should it be held or cut?
The Superposition / Revision case is a fraud. See
Revision Signals
It is also a very dangerous entry point for front-running. Just imagine, Socrates elects a weekly bearish reversal. Everybody goes short. Martin Armstrong receives a revision signal and can trade against this crowd whose members become his bag holders. Why is it so convenient? Because he gets notified of the revision event before the report comes out the day after and in case of weekly has a full day to trade the opposite side to make a killing before anyone else gets the signal.
Fraud discredits the system as a whole, and testing becomes a futile exercise if you start following this rabbit hole. The best you can do is to be aware of it and ignore it. You may want to decide to not trade on the election event but, in the case of weekly, one trading day later, on Monday. Then you can trade the revised reversals in the opposite direction. But then you lose profit potential. Can you see how screwed-up this system is?

Superposition Event in the Blog
Here we have a Revision Event in the private blog. As has been noted before, these events borrow from the future.
In this case, a daily bearish is elected on Thursday 2018-10-11, a weekly bearish is elected on Friday 2018-10-12. Then on Monday that Revision event comes out of the blue because the system discovers that it has been wrong.
US Share Market Afternoon Update
By: Marty Armstrong
Thursday, October 11, 2018
The Dow is trading at 25360 after we got the mid-day rally. A close today below 25454 will keep the market weak. A closing BELOW 25294 today should signal a further decline and the next low may unfold on Monday. If we get this sell signal, then we should move to the next Weekly Bearish which lies at the 24965 level and if that is elected tomorrow, then we should test the Monthly Bearish in the 23 zone next week.
We are setting the stage for a real interesting outcome here right on time for the WEC
The DOW closed below 25294 at 25052.83, so we got the sell signal.
The Markets for the Week of 10/15/2018
By: Marty Armstrong
Monday, October 15, 2018
...
We encountered a Superposition situation on the Weekly Level in the Dow electing two long-term term Weekly Bullish Reversals against a Short-term Weekly Bearish.
What this means that you go short on Thursday and Friday, make a loss, and the following Monday Martin comes out saying that the system was right again. These two long-term Weekly Bullish Reversals were NOT available on Friday. They come the next week.
If you look at the chart, even on its own terms it is not correct because the bullish movement is shorter term than the bearish movement.
Nobody would expect that a system is always right and accurate, but the claims are outlandish, and it helps to document what happened.
Here we have a Revision Event in the private blog. As has been noted before, these events borrow from the future.
In this case, a daily bearish is elected on Thursday 2018-10-11, a weekly bearish is elected on Friday 2018-10-12. Then on Monday that Revision event comes out of the blue because the system discovers that it has been wrong.

The Dow is trading at 25360 after we got the mid-day rally. A close today below 25454 will keep the market weak. A closing BELOW 25294 today should signal a further decline and the next low may unfold on Monday. If we get this sell signal, then we should move to the next Weekly Bearish which lies at the 24965 level and if that is elected tomorrow, then we should test the Monthly Bearish in the 23 zone next week.
We are setting the stage for a real interesting outcome here right on time for the WEC
The DOW closed below 25294 at 25052.83, so we got the sell signal.

We encountered a Superposition situation on the Weekly Level in the Dow electing two long-term term Weekly Bullish Reversals against a Short-term Weekly Bearish.

Simplicity is better
I started shorting Brazil last week when it had the temp high. Low risk high reward. Simple to find.
No single signal in Socrates about it, actually it is still bullish from what I have heard. So far, profitable even while the start was a bit scary.
So what would have happened had I traded Socrates?
Weekly reversals elected 2019-06-07, traded for a week Friday to Friday close 2019-06-07 to 2019-06-14
$DXY weekly bearish 1% loss
EUR/USD weekly bullish 1.1% loss
GDAX weekly bullish 0.4% loss
SENSEX weekly bullish 0.4% loss
USD/CAD weekly bearish 1.0% loss
USD/CHF weekly bearish 1.2% loss
Visa weekly bullish 0.2% loss
Cotton weekly bearish 0.5% loss
Heating oil weekly bearish 0.3% loss
Natural gas weekly bearish 2.1% loss
That is a fairly good cross section of the market, of what was elected, I guess. No winner.
I would not want to extend this depressing experiment by another two weeks waiting while these trades come right while I can have a profit within a week with something better.
All my percentage line up with yours except for the weekly bullish GDAX. The GDAX elected the bullish reversal at 12045.38 and ended the first week at 12096.4 for a gain of 0.4% instead of a loss of 0.4% I started shorting Brazil last week when it had the temp high.
