Pirocco, did you read what you posted about Norcini? He was correct for his shorter term time period. And if you noticed the massive H&S pattern in the USD at the time. Any technician with a grain of common sense would have seen that pattern as ominous. H&S patterns don't always work out, but you ignore them at your folly.
What was correct, and more importantly, when?
And for who?
According to his own chestpatting, he's 20 years trading.
Do you think his milking sequence sits on the shorter term?
Back in april 2011, he talked about $100. He was, to use the words of this topic, "blowing the minds of perma Bears".
And since (read: after he Took his Professional Profit) then, he's "blowing the minds of perma Bulls".
Did you read that topic I created after I noticed his selectivity?
He called the "massive uptrend" in what he named "Hedge Funds / Hedgies" position this summer, "ODD". Afterwards. You didn't read Professional Trader Dan Norcini during their position accumulation.
Pirocco, that's me, posted about the big futures hedge increase, and said to NOT buy in it. Where were Professional Trader Dan Norcini's warnings AT THAT TIME: nowhere.
Then the opposite happened. And bingo, finally Norcini writes an article titled "Agressive Hedge Fund Selling Plagues Silver" (see
http://forums.silverstackers.com/topic-56006-agressive-hedge-fund-selling-plagues-silver.html )
Pirocco, as to criticize this selectivity, created a second topic, copycatting Norcini's terminology:
"Agressive Hedge Fund Buying PlagueD Silver"
(see
http://forums.silverstackers.com/topic-56015-agressive-hedge-fund-buying-plagued-silver-page-1.html )
Note the PAST tense. Not Plagues but Plagued.
To make clear the Big Silence of Dan Norcini AT THAT TIME.
Some entities buy lotsa futures market positions, Dan Norcini remains silence.
These entities sell lotsa futures market positions, Dan Norcini yells.
Selectivity, the common trick to inflict readers a wrong picture.
Much like how the Zerohedgers and SilverDoctors operate. One can have 50 white sheeps and 50 black sheeps, when a sheep passes the camera objective, only take a snapshot when it's the color you want people to believe all sheeps are.
Professional Trader Dan Norcini remained silent during the $19>$21 fast price uptrend accompanied by a very big futures hedge increase (considering the amount price dollars). I reported and warned for this. I even calculated a next bottom when they would dump again and those that got out wouldn't buy back in, it was $17, and what is the price since some days: $17.5. And while they already dumped most, and the futures hedge in the process has been reduced back to a low 16767 (price $17.80), we have seen sub 10000 several times in 2013-2014 (03/06/2014 9640 // 30/07/2013 8307 // 09/07/2013 6898 // etcetera) there is a reasonable chance that this low will have another instance, and then we'll have my predicted $17.
And as always: I'll update when I see reason to, and I also act myself accordingly (unlike our Good Ol' Professional Trader Dan Norcini, that plays the bull or remains silent after uptrends to then do the opposite what he suggests others to do, and plays the bear after downtrends to do the same but inverted ofc.
Shouldn't this trick be very recognizable to anyone with some years experience "in the branch"?
Technicians and common sense has nothing to do with it, dccpa, it's just vested interest and it's not technology but tricking people into predictable behaviour.
