Is this 100 percent true ?

The big players could possibly push the NDX slightly lower
to scare the masses.
We are now in a new trading era. Think of anything from 2010 to 2021 as over until the next mega
crash. With the passing of each year, the top players’ war chest increases by at least 270 to 300
billion, which is a conservative number. Boredom sets in when one has more money than one
knows what to do with. When these players see how stupid and gullible the average human is,
well, let’s just say the desire to create even more chaos grows by the second. They negatively use
M.P., for they can afford to.
The big players have mastered M.P. to perfection, and the average Joe stands no chance against
them. Mass psychology is an alien word to the average investor. This perfection is clearly
evidenced by the fact that they managed to drop bullish sentiment readings to multi-year lows
without crashing the indices. We would typically state that it is time to break out a bottle of
expensive Booze, but save that for the more significant correction expected towards the end of the
year. Break out a bottle of medium-priced alcohol or brew some good chai or coffee and sip it.
Then write what you see; a trading journal is essential to move from the beginner to the advanced
stage. The best moments to take notes are when you are in a state of uncertainty. The masses will
never learn; their sole function is to serve as cannon fodder. On the other hand, you have the
option of changing or doing the same thing over again and hoping for a new outcome, which is the
classic definition of insanity.
Based on the analysis of the NDX, 40% of the stocks have experienced firm to severe corrections.
These stocks are mostly trading in the oversold to highly oversold ranges. Market’s don’t usually
experience a strong correction under such conditions. If they do, it always leads to a mega
opportunity.
Opportunity knocks but most seldom see it because they are too busy getting banged around by
fear.
However, the big players respect two things: critical thinking and the ability to apply Mass
psychology to the markets.
No matter how much the big players change the narrative, one thing will never change. The end
game is always the same. Separate the masses from their hard-earned money and enslave them
in the process. They use the power of fear, and the solution is simple, laugh at fear and embrace
severe corrections like the big players do. The bigger the deviation, the better the opportunity.
On that note, if you are a novice player, tread lightly when it comes to dealing with leveraged
funds. Start slowly, and then as you understand what type of trader you are, you can take on more
or less risk. Most individuals fail to categorize their risk threshold. Once identified, you can raise
your threshold as you gain confidence. One of the biggest sins in trading is the fear of missing out
syndrome. FOMO will guarantee that you will lose your shirt, trousers and knickers as well.
