I got lectured the other day by someone who told me that trading the markets was a sign of the beast and that I am playing on the wrong team for the end of days.

Ignoring the fact that markets have been traded in some form of another since any bit of exchange took place (goods or currency based)... I had no reply... completely dumbfounded. lol
tell them to piss off

Average prices for rough, or uncut, diamonds will probably climb 9 percent to $145 a carat next year, 1.4 percent in 2013 and 4.8 percent in 2014, according to Edward Sterck, an analyst at BMO Capital Markets. They may gain 2.6 percent in 2015 and 3.2 percent in 2016, he said. Gold will drop for three years starting 2013, following a 19 percent gain in 2012, according to the median of seven analyst estimates compiled by Bloomberg.

lol...how about telling me the next lottery numbers? :-p ....

let's see if i get this straight: so this move down is taking out long stops to go up?

cause the aussie looks more like that last up move was a fading to clean the short stops to mark down now...

what is it?
well it is taking out longs from the 2011 lows but thats not the point or the way to look at it...

like i said earlier the euro just kind of fell without a clear stop run... but the aussie is a better example of a stop hunt , fade , to a trending move down

a native goes hunting on the unknown side of the island. he does not return. a legend is born about the other side of the island. it is evil (the devil). for protection, groups of families stick together. a hierarchy is formed.
as the years go by a older (or best warrior) member of the group becomes full of wisdom. he tells the past legends he knows how to cure some illness. he becomes the leader or witch doctor (priest or religious leader or chief) the chief rules the hierarchy in a basic government with local custom laws. the priest is the religious (whatever the tittle) leader of the hierarchy. both are not needed. but at least one will prevail. whatever one prevails demands payment from the flock. this payment keeps the devil away. starting as sacrifices.
as the centuries go by the legends are embellished (tweaked for the moment) to give the leaders direction more importance. the leader is a king, and has a castle he demands more payment (less goes to a sacrifice and more to the king now). the king can be a government or a religious one. for either to succeed a devil real or not has to be used to keep the sheep in line.

beware of anyone calling another Satan. this one has been used since the caveman.

Anything is possible. I remember when silver was 14 bux, maybe a year ago. Somebody said it will go up to 40. Now it's back to 20? Next to speculation, you are right there's nothing you can put your money into.

Haven't seen that one. It was some analyst, and I remember kicking myself all year long for not buying at 14.

The problem I have with gold investing (not trading) are all the informacials. When everybody's buying, it must be too late.

oh haha. Yeah, I just remember Ken going on about his Silver trade. I believe he was averaged in around 15$ (bad memory, may have been higher) or so... but yeah, finally pulled the order when it went parabolic and closed it around 50.

ok...but anticipating a clear defined increase ( 19 % here) in gold in 2012 is hubris ...

Yeah isn't' that lovely. Of course the banks/hedge funds are still allowed.

I may start buying physical, as long as the government doesn't know I have it.

I'll be damned if they are going to raid my house in an attempt to confiscate it as they did during the great depression.
