Stupid trick.
what kind of trick ?
to boost my credibility
if you are credible, then where is your community? This thread is full mostly of your posts
Your logic is terrible, totally flawed. for a few reasons:
1) To be credible, I do NOT need a community. Absolutely not. Because in this shark-infested space (retail trading, speculation), most communities are in fact synthetically created by shills and their sock puppets. And I have a proof for that:
Martin Armstrong The Hyper Shill 2) My credibility comes from something else, which is as follows: For everything I write here and on that site, nobody needs to believe me. I usually decorate everything I say with hyperlinks so you can go and check what I say against the facts.
3) People who like to talk a lot and do nothing, and people who talk a lot of BS and/or are not qualified, or people who have a different agenda, they just go away because they realize they cannot achieve anything here. We don't want them here.
4) A community needs some excitement, some new stuff that needs to be discovered, or something to learn about which can be used to member's advantage. Fortunately we have figured out Martin is a parasite so there is nothing to gain from any of his products / services, and no substance to build a community on. At this late point in time.
5) The time factor. Like 4) in a way. This group was very active two years ago when new things were discovered every day. There was SO much activity that I decided to offload that info to that
armstrongecmscam.blogspot.com scam site because this Simple Machines platform would just burst under the load of having to organize that much information - totally unsuitable.
6) This forum is collectively moderated by a group of anonymous moderators, so nobody has the power to dominate it like at that
Reddit Armstrong controlled Echo Chamber where critical posts are deleted on a routine basis.
7) To use the frequency of my posts as a factor to discredit me is ridiculous, childish.
8 ) Perhaps the most compelling argument is that Martin Armstrong has in fact tried to shut
armstrongecmscam.blogspot.com down, and he failed. Remember we are basically saying here and there every day that he is a fraud. So the fact that we can do that, and at the same time
armstrongecmscam.blogspot.com still exists, while Google owns it and I do not pay a cent for it, gives me 100% credibility. Here is the proof:
DMCA (Copyright) Complaint to Google9) Well, I must have done a few things right when I exposed Martin Armstrong AS A SHILL twice under two different sock puppet accounts when he threatened to sue me for defamation and copyright infringement IN THIS FORUM
here and
here. And he can't sue me because I tell the truth.
10) I am the person who has done the heavy lifting here. Period. Mostly against Martin Armstrong himself who posted
OVER 300 SHILL MESSAGES IN THIS FORUM. I am not failing to give credit to others of course like
sloanf who exposed Scammer Martin Armstrong in 2016And YOU moron want to question my credibility? Where is yours? You have not even introduced yourself. Piss off!
Martin Armstrong is a charlatan, and he spent 11 years in jail for that reason but he has not changed.

Socrates Level of Accuracy Bullshit
So if you claim that your signal is better than mine, then you shoot yourself in the foot by saying that there are different conflicting signals which proves my point.
Not necessarily. Where did I say that one signal is better then other one? Signals may differ in accuracy thus present different levels of risk and reward, meanwhile putting them together can increase accuracy of decisions, see below.
You are proving my point. You just add another level to ambiguity. Dozens of different trading signals contradicting each other.
Analogy: When you ride a car, to determine at what speed you are driving you rely on front window, rear mirror, side mirrors, your gauges, your ass feeling, noise and many more.
Depending where are you at the particular moment of your trip, these instruments may give contradicting singals, i.e. on the flat route with no objects outside windows, in the dark, on autopilot one can perceive he stays in a place but the gauge shows 30mph. Same may apply to signals - isn't that what traders in general have to do: know the effectiveness of each signal and rely on them when they are in conjunction rather when they contradict?
Considering more signals helps you to gain more kilometers in the same amount of time spent on the route, as it would be with more profits for a given market situation and time spent on trading.
Your car analogy is misleading, in fact fundamentally flawed. Complete garbage. You are fooling yourself and I will show you why:
In that car situation, each signal comes from a totally different direction, and each signal mostly does NOT include information that the other signals have. One signal may contain the image of another car driving in front of you, the other signal contains an image of the car behind you. Different objects. Only the combination may provide a 360 degree view. The information is not complete without the combination of all signals.
In case of Socrates, we definitely know that for each time frame, daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly,
ALL signals, without exception, are derived from the
SAME SOURCE, a short window of a single time series of a single symbol in a single time frame. The
proof of that is that you get daily buy signals, daily reversals, daily forecast arrays, daily energy signals, daily short / long positions, and the same once again for weekly, monthly, quarterly, yearly.
When we look at your car analogy, that would be the equivalent of analyzing the time series of a single one dimensional source of information, e.g. the car speed (without direction) in different time frames, then concluding by using a clever combination of processed signals derived from it to predict the next movement of the car. You conclude that there is more accuracy in the information derived from the single original source than actually exists in the single source.
You need to understand one of the most basic concepts of signal processing or information processing.
If you don't want to be fooled by Armstrong, or rather be fooled by yourself. Like Armstrong fooled himself with his myopic views and had some programmers turn them into his Socrates contraption.
Using this Socrates thing is like looking into a ceiling light through a Kaleidoscope. It's for dummies.
Which is what
Martin Armstrong ?used to trade the markets. And lost hundreds of millions doing so. Now we know how stupid Armstrong is.
He would even use his contraption to predict earthquakes.
Now you are falling into the same trap.
Wash, rinse, repeat.So with this knowledge, we are completely safe to conclude that any buy or sell signals are in fact derived from the Reversal System which is a trend following system, and that they do not even take into consideration the forecast arrays. Which would add another level of failure / uncertainty because they don't work.
Which means that I can predict that the evaluation of the signal that you are quoting will be as catastrophic as anything else we have seen so far. Because these signals buy at resistance (typically temp highs) and sell at support (typically temp lows). Because there is nothing else to them. Like a glorified trailing stop loss order strategy. Just bells and whistles which help to sell Socrates.
That debunking session has saved us a lot of time.
Martin Armstrong is a charlatan, and he spent 11 years in jail for that reason but he has not changed.

Regular Socrates Warning Broadcast
It's a Scam
This is a new type of generic regular broadcast message. It is timely in a way because traffic of this blog is high, and it will hopefully reach a larger audience than before.
As we have exposed many times,
Martin Armstrong makes
forecasts like a shotgun, let's say for the sake of argument twenty in a row.
The majority will fail and the minority, typically only one will succeed. He then praises the success of the minority successful forecasts, but
conveniently forgets about the failures or
manipulates them after the fact to appear successful.
Guess why we do not find any track record
on any of his sites, only at
armstrongecmscam.blogspot.com and
Precious Metals Analyst Accountability.
That is why
Martin Armstrong is
talking to himself in his "public" blog echo chamber and
posting in public forums as his own shill. He
censors user comments
to put it mildly.
So far so good.
The Socrates system with its
Artificial Intelligence magic, that according to his claims is
free of human bias and never wrong, is supposedly not subject to the above confidence tricks.
WRONG!
The Socrates system,
by means of its ambiguity, is not different from the charlatan scheme described above - it just computerizes that scheme of deception as a
smoke and mirrors machine.
That is why I have been writing for months about
Computerized Fraud, using a perhaps somewhat odd term.
Take the time and read every page of
armstrongecmscam.blogspot.com and you will discover that Socrates with its
built-in ambiguity will only line the pockets of
Martin Armstrong but it will never even be verifiable with regards to its advertised performance.
The simple reason for the above is that it is based on
human interpretation in hindsight.
But one thing is guaranteed: It will
effectively impoverish its users short term and
long term. Any doubts? Check out the
Socrates Subscriber Testimonials.
What else is there to say? Every man and his dog knows it's a scam.
We just need to look at the posting history of that pioneer
sloanf exposing ?
Martin Armstrong since 2016 which proves the point: Everything we know today about Martin Armstrong was already known five years ago:

The Fake Fan Email Confidence Trick:
Shill Campaign around a new Index
Martin Armstrong uses this trick so much, we take it for granted. We already have two separate pages dedicated to it:
The Fake Fan Email Confidence Trickand
Readers' questions/comments are FAKE (most likely) Here is a new case:
In
Our War Index , Martin Armstrong writes to himself and answers his own question:
A periodic solar event called a "grand minimum" could overtake the sun perhaps as soon as 2020 and lasting through 2070, resulting in diminished magnetism, infrequent sunspot production and less ultraviolet (UV) radiation reaching Earth ? all bringing a cooler period to the planet that may span 50 years.
Here is his hindsight model predicting this after the fact:
Are we Headed into Another Ice Age?Thanks for the explanation. I couldn't find anything in the Socrates user guides about how the array indicators impact time & price. I've added these points as I start building my own manual and getting more used to seeing their effects as I monitor the price movements daily and during market. If you happen upon any other material explaining, anything at all would be appreciated.
That is the perspective that
Martin Armstrong seeks to cultivate:
Let these dumb fools make human assumptions about what Socrates doesn't say - let them connect the dots between the myriad of inconsistent meaningless signals so I don't need to give the advice that I am not allowed to give anyway. I just say "Follow the numbers" and "The Numbers are the Numbers" and say that the computer is never wrong.
If Socrates responses were unambiguous and definite then its failure would be too obvious too soon. So they are intentionally kept vague and ambiguous. To invite users to start their own research projects while they are paying for it.
It's the ultimate scam. USD 1,800 yearly subscription money for random garbage,
a service that is in terminal decline.

Martin Armstrong The Magnetizer
For his Hyper Idiot Followers:
Magnets Cling to Where People are VaccinatedFrom
Martin Armstrong' s perspective, of course, anything is acceptable that attracts viewers an hopefully clients of is online store where he sells expensive snake oil.
However, from my perspective, anything that discredits this fraudster is highly welcome. So
Martin Armstrong please keep the garbage coming, you moron. I can't get enough of it. It will all be added to the
Disinformation Page.
