Even though a bit old still a very interesting read. Somehow reminds me of the old saying "when everyone and their uncles start talking about buying that means it's time to start selling"

FYI Hugh Hendry's fund, Eclectica, is world's best performing hedge fund this year according to Bloomberg.

can even learn goodness from the evils? Revisiting the scene of the crime,
I really wondered if khrisnan, ever said he was greater than God. I Doubt it, as masters are normally very humble beings. There we may see this chap's folly. He should had listened to himself. Poor chap ended up hurting himself. His first words,...

"I see God's manifestations but I not see God.How to Know God, while he is without the characteristics? I am ... like him ... without the characteristics ... nothing to examine and keep the first ... that remains ..."

We see His perfect nature in his commandments, are given a means of reconciliation an a glimpse of God revealed in his "Divine" Son Jesus, and the ability to commune with Him by the indwelling of His Holy Spirit.

That indwelling of the Holy Spirit is our deposit and proof of our inheritance an adoption into his family. Without that, we have no personal relationship with the Father. Throughout the Bible, from God walking through the garden in the cool of the day in fellowship with Adam, down through the prophets , which He called by "name" God has sought to lead and have a personal influence and relationship in each of our lives.

God in his infinite knowledge knows the hairs on our head, but on a personal level does He and more importantly do you know Him?

Look up the parable of the sheep and Shepard, the sheep know His voice.

On the last day many will say haven't we done this or that in your name, and Jesus will say, depart from me, workers of evil, for I never knew you.

Hi guys. I feel very bad today, as in few days I have cycling competition, and I didnt improve tht much in one year. I got a workout from a coach, but I couldnt follow it in details, as I train now also intesively taekwondo, so high intesive workouts of cycling were kind of too much for me and also problem is my cycle is not good enough for competitions, but I cant afford better one. So I feel sad now as I tought I've much better time than I achieved today i think still its gonna be top 10 out of 40 ppl. And guys really what it takes to be a winner nowadays? regards

The Shepard guides the sheep throughout their life, only to suceed the final goal of milking and slaughter for meat.

u cant be equally good in two fields/sports.... u will inevitably spend more time on one sport over the other & be better on one over the other.
IMHO, your taekwondo is counterproductive to your cycling training for the upcoming competition. both sports are heavy on the feet, specially the thighs/calves. rest is paramount for an athlete.
if u really wanna do well in the cycling competition, u should reduce or better yet totally avoid taekwondo for now.

I really don't get the point.
You are the second person posting about conspiracy theory.
I really cannot help you chaps with your, quickness to jump to conclusions and stance.
Maybe thats why you people see patterns that is not on the charts. Thats because your minds are already closed.Before you even think. You already bias and taken sides.
With respect, you also have jumped to conclusions about me. Given the limitations inherent in the medium, perhaps it's inevitable.

I'm instinctively suspicious of conspiracy theorists. When a smug, articulate man sits on youtube telling me for well over an hour that he alone has uncovered secrets too profound and too dangerous for mere mortals to grasp or comprehend, I tend to think he's either a liar or a lunatic. True, he might be a genius starting a revolution in human thought, but I doubt it. In such matters I am a trend-follower, not a bottom-picker.

Since everyone has been speaking on prophecies and conspiracies, I'll chip in on what I know of Islamic Prophecy regarding end times. The Muslim belief regarding Prophecies by the Prophet Muhammad(SAW) is that they will all eventually come true as it is the word of a prophet of God.
As per the prophet , 72 signs of nearness of doomsday. my comments are in brackets:

1. People will leave prayer (has already happened in islamic countries)
2. People will usurp Ama'naat. (amanat is a trust deposited)
3. Lying will become an art (lawyers anyone)?
4. There will be murders on the slightest of disagreements.
5. Usury will become common(banksters?)
6. Camelherding arabs will compete with one another in construction of tall buildings (this one is a shocker. No common man could have foretold that 1500 yrs ago)
7. People will sell Religion for the world
8. People will be kind to friends and harsh with relatives and parents.(common)
9. Justice will become a rarity
10. Lies will be considered truth
11. Clothes will be of silk
12. Persecution will become common(torture by governments?)
13. Divorces will become common(50% divorce rate pretty common)
14. Sudden deaths will increase(wars, terror attacks, vendettas, floods, earthquakes)
15. The usurper of trust will be considered honest and honourable
16. The keeper of trust will be called an usurper of things given to him
for safekeeping
17. Liars will be thought of as honest(politicians and statesmen)
18. Honest people will be thought of as liars (ron paul)
19. False accusations will become the norm (Public Relations. hehe)
20. It will be hot in spite of rain(Climate change)
21. Instead of wishing for children, people will pray that they not have
children(in many parts of developed world negative birth rate, and developing countries infanticide)
22. People from bad backgrounds and with bad upbringing will live a life of
decadent luxury
23. Good people, when they try to practice, will be cut off from the world. (happens in pakistan a lot)
24. Previously good people will also usurp Ama'naat( darth vader
25. Leaders will become persecutors
26. Religious scholars and clerics will commit adultery (among all else, the catholic church?)
27. People will wear clothes of animal skin But their hearts will be devoid of rememberance of God
30. Wealth will become common (60 trillion world gdp makes it pretty common)
31. Demand for Silver will increase( oh boy,)
32. Sin will increase
33. Peace will become rare(floods , civil wars, riots etc)
34. Ayaats from the Quran will be decorated and calligraphy will become
common
35. Mosques will be decorated And will have tall minars But hearts will be empty
36. Alcoholic drinks will be abundant.
39. Punishments ordered by the Shariah will be revoked and will no longer be implemented
40. Women will order their mothers around (toxic b$&tches?)
42. Women will trade along with men (female bond traders, haha)
43. Women will imitate men(feminists)
44. Men will imitate women(homos)
45. People will swear by things other than Allah and the Quran
46. Even Muslims will be prepared to give false testimony,without being
incited to it.(trust me, my people do it alot)
47. Only people one knows will greet each other
48. The knowledge of thedivine law will be used to earn worldly things
49. Acts which earn the after life, will be used to earn the world
50. Assets belonging to the nation will be considered and treated as
personal treasures by the rulers (yup)
51. trust will be considered ones personal asset
52. the poor tithe will be considered a penalty
53. The lowest and the worst man in the nation will become its leader
54. People will not obey their fathers
55. And will mistreat their mothers
56. And will not hold back from harming their friends
57. And will obey their wives
58. And the voices of men who commit adultery will be raised in mosques
59. Women who sing will be treated with great deference( pop stars were previously considered harlots btw)

62. People will be proud of their acts of persecution
63. Justice will be sold in the courts
64. The number of men in the police force will increase(police state)
65. Instead of music, the Quran will be used to gain pleasure for its tune

in people who call the Prophet's companion's names)
68. Either Allah will send a Red Storm upon you
69. Or Earthquakes

71. Or a rain of rocks from the! skies. Asteroids? Meteors

there are also islamic prophecies regarding Jesus(PBUH), Gog and Magog, Armageddon , antichrist(whose facial features are explained as being one eyed, not as in cyclops, but more like one non functional eye protruding like a grape)

Among other things mentioned, A treasure will be found in the Euphrates(river in iraq) and many men will die fighting over it. Sounds like a reference to the iraq war no?

Interestingly, when the battle between Jesus(PBUH) and Antichrist is mentioned, the antichrist according to prophecy shall flee to ludd, which is the location of an international airport/miliatary base east of tel aviv. Cool huh?

I think we are close. within a few centuries maybe

Morning guys, I hope you all head great time during the weekend.
I am just starting my trading day and looking at the charts it seems market is eager to test BoJ's patience - that's going to be something I am definitely going to watch with interest. Other then that it seems markets are in holiday mood with the labor day across the big water.
As usually the conspiracy theories are dividing people into fractions... Things discussed in religions and world domination conspiracy theories are way too global for any of us to be able to affect. Not to mention that on that subject there's not really a way to know what's going to happen tomorrow. So in a nutshell - don't you people have something a bit more real and creative to discuss?

Hi all,
my ($ 0.02) a summary of the conspiracy theories:
everything happens by the will of God - although we understand Him.
If the substantive matters such as FTI Trading Method (of movement, dance), we have to be flexible, open minded and learn a lot from the heart is also in spiritual matters - feel the message of God in the heart and swim, dance, and not to speculate that the faith is true and which false ... etc.., etc.
Everyone is an individual living creature that God loves and leads back to him - some out of ignorance, others by passion, and the other by the goodness ...
If you focus on the movement of relationship with God in the heart, not in the mind of God to understand the many mysteries ...
But this also teaches FTI

Good trading to all

Hey Setebos

Relate it back to trading. TRUTH is held in all types of analysis. Fundie, Tech, Quan, Dealer conspiracy (shooting sitting ducks) etc... But none shows the TRUTH, yet they all have part of the TRUTH.

To love, is to hold on, to trust.
To fear, is to reject, to dis-trust.

Both love and fear BLINDS. That is the problem of human mindset regarding any type of analyst or information. To reach balance, to always doubt yet to never judge, you seek to understand and there you will find how to go with the flow.

I see it as healthy activity for traders.
