Trading the stockmarket (NO Referrals)

Put some more money into my ISA over the weekend. Bought a couple of funds for the long term. It's money that I'll hold for probably 5-10 years anyway. Not trading it, simply buying and holding for now.

Earnings are coming in, stock market grinding lower. Will we retest the lows of March 23rd?

Part of peak FIAT??? There is a lot of waffle there and not much substance tbh...

I think trend changes from whats been true for a generation, even across economic cycles rates keep falling. The peak showing below is the gold high from the 80's in Volcker's tenure, inversely we could peak here. That'd be a big change, seems worth trying to say even if lost in translation

Made a lot of an crude oil short yesterday, More on a long over night and making more shorting again today.

What are you shorting, BZ?

I'm staying away from oil trades, especially at 1k bbl/contract.

I trade on a crypto exchange that has a few CFD contracts, Not quite the same as most are trading here.

The CFD is just called Brent, This is the ticker on tradingview https://www.tradingview.com/chart/u66IUeRb/

It's not a good idea to trade this stuff if you don't actually know what you're trading.
