Priceless!  Yet sadly pathetic and true... How can anyone be fooled by this con?

Priceless!  Yet sadly pathetic and true... How can anyone be fooled by this con?

Now, let me expand on his made-up letters since you broght it up and some others mentioned them elsewhere http://www.informedtrades.com/showthread.php?t=1341538&page=7. All those letters could be broken down into three main categories:

1.   Dear MA. Thank you for your existence. Our whole family has been reading your blog for years. It is so great that my 97-year-old grandma decided to learn how to read so as to be able to follow your blog. Occasionally on big family gatherings such as Thanksgiving or Christmas we even read your blog out loud (uncle Derek reads it because he has a strong voice and a better diction than our grandma). My children don’t go to school anymore because they have your blog. What else can you ask for in life, right? Thanks to your unique knowledge and extraordinary insight, we now know that politicians are not good as they claim during election campaigns and also that something bad is going on in Europe. It was really an eye-opener. Could you please elaborate on why grass is green and water is wet? Thank you.

2.   Your honor. I am so fortunate that I have stumbled upon your blog. I am a historian with a PhD but never have I read anything like what you put on your website. It is so clear to me that Will Durant and Eugen Weber are not in the same league with you because they probably copied some of their work from you. Even Herodotus would feel deeply ashamed of himself after reading the stuff you researched and kindly shared with us on your fascinating blog. Our academic community together with UNESCO should initiate the process of updating school programs around the globe with all your valuable insight and discoveries. A truly eye-opener. My son now actually can see things better after your blog (used to wear thick glasses). Would you please make some more dvds for Amazon and Netflix so everybody could benefit from your brilliant understanding of history? Thank you.

3.   Your majesty. Words can’t express how grateful I am for living in the same time with you. Your knowledge of economics and physics is so amazing that you should be awarded the Nobel prize for both. I am just one of millions of your loyal followers and has been attending your conferences since the Civil War. I remember you once said gold would go up and down. And it did! You also said that there would be wars in the world. And then they happened! The world best forecaster indeed! Now everybody steals your predictions and claims as their own all over the place. They are so dishonest. At your last conference there were tens of thousands of people and you could not place them all so you had to turn thousands away. Will you hold your next conference in a larger place say exhibition halls or convention centers to accommodate all participants? Thank you.

MA's answer regardless of the question asked almost always goes like this:

Thank you. It’s been a mystery to me. Some call it a miracle, some call me the greatest forecaster on the planet but I put it down simply to my unique ECM model. Gold went up precisely on time and according to the model. It’s not my opinion, it’s what computer says based on capital flows across the globe and the unique historic data that cost me hundreds of millions. Even the IMF does not have such database. The computer model works through 32000 variables and 72 metrics and so much else, it’s not humanly possible to produce forecasts like this. Even Microsoft and IBM clouds combined would not be able to process it. NASA confirms that they are not going to have such processing power before at least 2032, the next ECM turning point. It’s all because politicians are all corrupt, they can’t even run a bubble-gum machine. Back in the old days, the Roman empire collapsed precisely for the same reasons - they were all lawyers, not traders and programmers like myself. Governments are everywhere hunting cash and want to impose more taxes, bankers are sucking the blood of the economy, riots are everywhere just in line with our War cycle model. The Euro is about to crack because European leaders didn’t listen to me. Welcome to Big Bang.
Remember it was all rosy before when I consulted presidents and prime-ministers all over the world. Milton Friedman used to come to my conferences and sit quietly on the back row, Maggie Thatcher used to call me for my advice, Paul Volker wrote a book borrowing my ideas on cycles and so on. I am going to publish a report on gold soon and hold a conference next month where I will go in depth on all that and also on how to solve sovereign debt problem, find a cure for cancer, set peace in the Middle East, reduce inequality, eradicate poverty, and understand women. Sign-up early since places are limited.

Talks to self. Gee, I have been waiting for this to happen for weeks. You are so clueless. Now everybody can see that Gumbi, Alex-11, over45, and Strike Eagle 26 use this forum for Socrates marketing. Go ahead. Talk to "each other" and ask each other some fake questions as in the armstrongeconomics.com blog


And, because Socrates does not work ...

Martin Armstrong misrepresents hypothetical performance results:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.51666429

We did some work to find out and nobody could challenge the results. Now the game is over.

Gumbi, Strike Eagle 26, over45 and Alex-11, you Martin Armstrong affiliates. Nobody is asking you for advice  here. Nobody is interested. People don't ask questions here about Socrates, a discredited "system", any more. Did you not notice? How long do you want to play this game? Go away and post at armstrongeconomics.com. People who want your stuff can go there. This is clearly not your forum.

This Armstrong discussion has developed, reached a certain stage. This can't be reversed. Discussions reach conclusions. After more than 300 pages. Now you want to ignore all that and start from scratch? Not here. Do that at armstrongeconomics.com.

And here we are learning about opinions:


So far the most opinions come from Gumbi, Strike Eagle 26, over45 and Alex-11. Never any facts because nobody could show anything that works. Never. I am not interested in opinions, only facts. First it is hard to find the facts, but it is extremely easy to repeat them because they cannot be disputed. And that is what you are getting from my replies. You write to me what I am not interested in: Opinion. I respond with what you are not interested in: Facts.

Diehard Armstrong believer Alex-11 will ask where to pay the subscription after Socrates is powered down.

13,000+ followers and his tweets get barely any traction at all. Doesn't take a genius to realize that accounts are either fake, or inactive (apparently that account joined January 2010, so it is also a possibility).
Either way, those follower account give 0 fks about his tweets.

What are you even trying to argue, lol?  
Better just check if few accounts that actually reply can spell. Now that might be fun research.

They are easy to recognize, I once bought Twitter followers myself.
Plenty of them without profile pictures, any personal information or even 1 tweet.

can you enlighten us on how you have identified those fake accounts?

Have you searched all 13000 twitter follower for the list of all 1000's of professional money manager you've compiled and where you know the name of their 1000's of twitter accounts?

I checked his followers, just for fun. He has 13.6k and I think 40/50% or even more of them are fake (he bought them). They are easy to recognize, I once bought Twitter followers myself.
Plenty of them without profile pictures, any personal information or even 1 tweet.
Also, if you search a bit deeper, there are close to zero followers that are professional money managers.

LOL, Marty is getting completely delusional again:

https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/markets-by-sector/interest-rates/the-panic-in-interest-rates-is-just-getting-started/


Lmao, Armstrong has been calling several times for interest rates to rise since 2013, already 6 years ago. But now in the last weeks the rates finally have risen, and Marty PREDICTED it to day, according to his fanmail (copyright Martin Armstrong probably) , while he never stated it on the blog anywhere that it would rise after Labor Day.

But thank God, after being wrong on interest rates for 6 years, you can get a copy of his bond report for just $3500, if your firm gets a subscription up to $5 million.


What the hell is this guy smoking?

Here he goes again:

https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/markets-by-sector/interest-rates/trump-on-interest-rates-omg/




1) 13th year of economic recession in Europe? Armstrong is outright lying here.
2) The relative sluggish European economic recovery has not much to do with that lower rates or that QE didn't work; but rather with demographics, bad loans on bank's balance sheets and the relative high amount of socialism in Europe. Also we don't know what the economic numbers would be without lower rates or without QE (probably a lot worse or even a depression).
3) Comparing European share markets from the 2000-bubble top is ridiculous in itself, but even more ridiculous without taking into account dividends. The DAX with dividend topped around 8000 points in the year 2000 and is now above 12000 points. Not too shabby since Armstrong says Europe has been in a recession for 13 years straight. Also we don't know what the DAX would be without lower rates or without QE (probably a lot lower).

Armstrong is just outright lying, or not telling the full story. But if it's about Europe, he can only bash it seems.

Marty also seems to be a total drama queen being on a period when it comes to taxation. Corporate and top income rates in general have been declining for decades around the world.

QUESTION: Hi. Martin. I have read your blog for many years and I’m blown away about how much I have learned Question can you help explain how the European stock markets Like the day have risen to over 12000. With European interest rates falling.

QUESTION: Marty; You warned that there would begin a cash shortage and real rates would rise in the private sector starting in September after Labor Day. Ok, it’s about 15 days past that marker and Repo rates have gone completely nuts hitting 10% forcing the Fed to intervene. They were calling it Armstrong’s revenge here in the dealing room. It certainly appears the Fed has lost control of short-term rates as you warned. Is this the start of the chaos you have warned about?

Many have tried to prevent our forecasts.

Look, the reversals are a black box and I keep it that way along with the Schema Frequencies.

The Energy indicator is against based upon physics

Yet I’ve been trading stocks with only simple trend lines for years using basic tech A.

The Energy indicator is against based upon physics and it exposes the true opposing forces at work irrespective of the superficial price levels. The key to this is looking for the divergence when prices are rising and Energy is declining. This is a warning signal that such a rally is NOT sustainable. Likewise, when prices are falling but Energy begins to rise, once more there is a divergence warning that the decline is losing energy and a low is near. Just look at this daily chart on gold. You can see the divergence as Energy peaked well in advance

OMG at his latest post... I wonder if the question is made up by Marty himself to troll everybody who "doesn't understand his system".

Reversals – Energy – A Different Dimension

Posted Sep 18, 2019 by Martin Armstrong

QUESTION: Hi Marty… I’ve been reading your blog for several years now.

I’ve been trying to understand the basics about your reversal system is with no luck.
Yet I’ve been trading stocks with only simple trend lines for years using basic tech A.

PS I still don’t even understand how the Federal Reserve works either… they don’t teach you that stuff in high school!

Yes, I’ve watched every video or post on reversals on your site and not getting it. I know I’m not that smart but I’m not that dumb either!

Can you pretty please post a very clear layman’s chart using a stock or a commodity with prices like gold to show us dummies so we “GET IT”

Thanks Marty….

A dumb Canuck

ANSWER: Look, the reversals are a black box and I keep it that way along with the Schema Frequencies. This is a physics solution to how the world ticks. It is not a simple moving average, stochastics, or one-dimensional formula. It is highly complex and many people have tried to reverse engineer it but have failed. They may think they have come close but they cannot account for the next number.

Traditionally, economists argue there is a business cycle, but nobody can forecast the cycle. Therefore, with tools of interest rates, taxes, and money supply, governments can manipulate the business cycle. The problem is that even Larry Summers admitted that he cannot forecast the economy. This stems from the problem of their failure to understand cyclical movement,to begin with. The Schema Frequencies resolve the complexity of cyclical movement.

The Energy indicator is against based upon physics and it exposes the true opposing forces at work irrespective of the superficial price levels. The key to this is looking for the divergence when prices are rising and Energy is declining. This is a warning signal that such a rally is NOT sustainable. Likewise, when prices are falling but Energy begins to rise, once more there is a divergence warning that the decline is losing energy and a low is near. Just look at this daily chart on gold. You can see the divergence as Energy peaked well in advance.

These indicators are not your standard variety of analysis. They are entirely beyond the one-dimensional analysis world for the markets are not only all connected globally, but the entire system is fractal. So we have a fractal relationship within each market and then a fractal relationship on a global perspective.

The models do all the calculations that are humanly impossible to carry out before a market even closes. It allows us to stand back and see the overview which then reveals the trends. Many have tried to prevent our forecasts. They have tried to ignore what this computer has been doing in hopes that I will die and that will be the end of it. I see this as a means to an end — to help society manage the business cycle without destroying our human rights and our freedom. I have to protect this because there are those who would use it behind the curtain for personal gain against the world.

Sometimes in life, we stumble upon something like the discovery of penicillin. It has saved lives. People just accept that and do not need to know the formula behind it.
