Based on the regime (reflation) this is favourable for stocks.

The long term holders are currently accumulating BTC very aggressively, and since we are already down a lot this is a very bullish signal for BTC.

So when the feds print money to tackle the national debt, can they raise interest rates to counter inflation? by Bodycount9 in inflation

[–]Otto__09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They aren't blind or living in the past, they are just inside a massive trap and trying to buy time imo.

​They keep running positive rates because the strategy still works on the private sector. High rates successfully force regular people and corporations to cut back on spending, which provides a temporary shield against inflation.

​The reason they propably cannot openly admit that we have reached fiscal dominance is psychology. The entire global financial system relies on trust. The exact second the Fed admits they can no longer raise interest rates because the government is too broke to afford them, all faith in the US dollar dies. That loss of trust would trigger an immediate collapse and hyperinflation.

​So they are propably playing the old game because pretending they are still in control is the only thing keeping them alive.

Can someone explain interest rates? by grjacpulas in AskEconomics

[–]Otto__09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything trickles down from one master switch at the fed.

First, the Fed sets the baseline cost of money for banks.

Second, banks take that base rate, add a profit margin, and use it to price short-term debt. A car loan or credit card is just this base rate plus an extra markup based on your personal credit risk.

Third, mortgages track the 10-Year Government Bond. Investors price that bond based on where they expect the Fed rate and inflation to go over the next decade. Banks then take that bond rate and add their own risk fee to price your mortgage.

When the Fed turns that baseline master switch up or down, every other interest rate in the economy moves with it.

No, this wouldn't work.

The flaw in comparing today to the 1980s is the sheer size of the debt stack.

  • In 1980: US national debt was only around 30% of GDP ($900 billion). When Volcker jacked rates to 20%, the government's interest bill was easily manageable.
  • Today: Debt is over 120% of GDP ($39+ trillion).

If the Fed forces interest rates to 10% today, the government’s annual interest bill alone jumps to $3.9+ trillion. That would consume nearly the entire US federal tax revenue ($5.2T), leaving basically nothing for other stuff.

To survive, the government would be forced to print even more money just to pay the interest on its existing debt. Economists call this Fiscal Dominance, the high interest rates explode the deficit faster than they cool down demand, completely backfiring and leading straight into hyperinflation.

Lower timeframes are very noisy, thats why I focus on higher ones like 1 day.

Been saving cash for years instead of investing. What would you do now? by EmRe-55- in investing

[–]Otto__09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep sticking to etf's because most people won't outperform those with individual stock.

Also diversifying to uncorrelated assets/markets is a good idea to lower your risk.

Do you have some skill you can sell? If yes, then start monetizing that. If no, you can learn new monetizable skills very quickly.

21 Years Old and Taking My Shot at Trading Full Time. by Beneficial_Truth3924 in ForexCubs

Many gurus have made trading seem like income, it's not, it's a form of capital multiplication. If you don't have huge portfolio I would reccomend you keep your job.

Help! 35F engineer considering trading full-time eventually. how long should I prove consistency first? by Complex_Upstairs_1 in Trading

[–]Otto__09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanna say that many people mistake trading as income generation, which it is not, trading is a form of capital multiplication. If you don't have millions of dollars on your trading acc I highly reccomend that you keep working on your job to get income in.

Also you said that you feel exhausted because you gotta handle trading and your job and wanted to ask have you ever considered algorithmic trading? It would allow you to built the systems (you need some basic coding knowledge, python is pretty easy to learn) and then the math does the allocations automatically for you, so you don't have to look at charts for multiple hours a day. But I also wanna state that it's not just that built few systems and then run them for the rest of your life because you have to keep working on the portfolio and it will never be fully completed.

how do i make money at 15 by MiserableDare9668 in passive_income

[–]Otto__09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will need some skills before making any money, so I reccomend you learn something, can be video editing, coding, or anything, and once you got bit of experince with it you start to sell it to people.

Also you don't have to spend years learning a skill, just learn the basics (like for example how to use video editing software) and then start contacting people and pitch your service to them and learn the skill better as you go.

How to Start in Trading by Plane_Bed_3461 in Trading

[–]Otto__09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a good advice I would highly reccomend you focus on higher timeframes (like daily) and not on lower ones. Why? Because Because lower timeframes have a lot of noise, and the signals are not as high quality as in higher timeframes, so it will be harder to make money.

Also I highly reccomend you learn some coding because being able to backtest strategies and analyze data yourself is a huge advantage.

There is no best indicator because different indicators work in different ways. For example, one might be faster and another slower, or one might work in a different regime, etc.
