[Tacitus @TacitOrdo]

@trdngchnnlsSTOX Is the South Korean KOSPI (EWY) ready for a short?

[Tacitus @TacitOrdo]

@trdngchnnlsSTOX Did you ever call SNDK last year?

[Tacitus @TacitOrdo]

The call spread volume with a very high strikeprice for gold and silver at the COMEX relative to the rest of the year is remarkable high. The key question is. Are these made by people with inside knowledge of a force majeur which will likely be taking place at the COMEX this year or non-insiders seeing an assymetric cheap bet with a small chance of becoming reality.

[Tacitus @TacitOrdo]

@Tradingchannels @sylvanashen Thans you for following up on my request

[Tacitus @TacitOrdo]

@trdngchnnlsSTOX Your service is one of the very best with pinpoint accuracy I have ever found anywhere. If I would have to suggest something to make it even better I would say suggest more take profit and short-entries on different stocks.

🟢 The market is already choosing its next junior leaders

Using my dashboard to screen 479 junior miners, I found that only 17 are down less than 10% in this correction.

That is not random.
That is real relative strength.
These are the names holding up best:

1. $ZAU.V — Zodiac Gold
2. $VEIN.V — Pasofino Gold
3. $FKM.V — Fokus Mining
4. $GAL.V — Galantas Gold
5. $RLYG.V — Riley Gold
6. $STRR.V — Star Royalties
7. $BSX.TO — Belo Sun Mining
8. $LVG.V — Lake Victoria Gold
9. $ALS.TO — Altius Minerals
10. $GQC.V — Goldquest Mining
11. $BBB.V — Brixton Metals
12. $AU.V — Aurion Resources
13. $DLTA.V — Delta Resources
14. $VLC.V — Velocity Minerals
15. $TIN.V — Tincorp Metals
16. $ZNG.V — Group Eleven Resources
17. $MTT.V — Magna Terra Minerals

Historically, this kind of behavior often shows up before leadership becomes obvious.

That does not mean these names cannot drop further.
But it does mean they are already being selected by the market.

I use the dashboard to systematically track this across the mining space.

More studies coming.

here is the prompt I used on @perplexity_ai max (Computer)...feel free to mess around with the weightings, etc.

-----------------------
PROMPT: Build “Should I Be Trading?” — Bloomberg Terminal-Style Market Dashboard

Build a live, auto-refreshing Bloomberg Terminal-style web dashboard called “Should I Be Trading?” that evaluates the current stock market environment and outputs a clear, actionable trading decision for swing traders.
---
Core Output

The system must display:

1. Decision: YES / CAUTION / NO
2. Market Quality Score: 0–100%
3. Execution Window Score: 0–100% (separate)
4. Plain-English Summary: concise explanation of the environment

Scoring System

Calculate category scores (0–100):

- Volatility: 25%
- Momentum: 25%
- Trend: 20%
- Breadth: 20%
- Macro/Liquidity: 10%

Then compute:

Market Quality Score = weighted average
---
Decision Logic

- 80–100 → YES
Full position sizing, press risk

- 60–79 → CAUTION
Half size, A+ setups only

- <60 → NO
Avoid trading, preserve capital
---
Execution Window Score (Critical Layer)

Separate score that evaluates whether setups are actually working:

- Are breakouts holding above pivot levels?
- Are leading stocks maintaining gains after breakout?
- Are pullbacks being bought quickly?
- Is there multi-day follow-through?

Score 0–100 and factor into final explanation (but NOT the main score weighting).
---

---
Alert Banner
- Display when FOMC / CPI / major macro event is imminent
---
Terminal Analysis (AI Layer)

Generate a short explanation like:

“This is a strong trend environment with expanding breadth and moderate volatility. Sector leadership is concentrated in technology and industrials. Favor selective swing trades with disciplined risk.”
---
Mode Toggle

- Day Trading Mode (adjust thresholds slightly tighter and faster)
---
Technical Requirements

- Auto-refresh every 45 seconds

IF YOU ARE UNDER 50

The investment world has one golden rule.

Buy an S&P 500 index fund. Hold for 20 years. Compound at ~10% annually.

It worked for your parents.

It is the bedrock of every retirement plan in America.

And it is about to stop working.

The narrative that "stocks always go up in the long run" is not a law of physics.

It is a historical anomaly based on infinite population growth and human consumption.

That era is over.

You are exposed to a risk factor the algorithms are not pricing in yet.

The mainstream media calls AGI and robotics a productivity boom.

They are missing the second order effect.

DEFLATIONARY COLLAPSE

Wall Street is selling you a future where companies replace humans and profits soar.

HERE IS THE PROBLEM WITH THAT MODEL:

The consumption loop is broken.

- Robots do not buy houses.
- Robots do not purchase insurance.
- Robots do not consume.
- Robots do not pay income tax.

When corporate America replaces the workforce.

They also eviscerate the consumer base.

Revenue streams for the S&P 500 rely on human consumption.

Remove the human earner and you remove the buyer.

The market is priced for an economy that runs on labor income.

We are moving to an economy that runs on capital efficiency.

The transition will not be a straight line up.

It will be a violent repricing of equity valuations.

NOT A CORRECTION. A REPRICING.

Down 2 to 3x.

And many assets never come back.

- Your portfolio drops from $1M to $300k.
- Dividend yields evaporate.
- Pension funds face insolvency.
- Your monthly payout shrinks to pennies.

This is a structural break in the economic machine.

You cannot index your way through a regime change.

The stocks you hold today are valued on a world that is disappearing.

When the repricing happens, it will be too late to rotate.

You will be left holding assets that have lost their fundamental bid.

This is why I stopped trusting the traditional 60/40 split years ago.

You need assets that cannot be coded to zero.

You need income streams that exist outside the public equity markets.

Real cash flow.

Tangible value.

I am positioning for this shift right now.

Most investors will walk blindly into the wealth destruction.

They will wake up to an empty account and a broken promise.

I will share the details on how to protect your capital from the automation shock.

A lot of people will wish they followed me sooner.

@Tradingchannels @TheLastDegree @wmiddelkoop Very well noticed. The XAU/EUR ONDA chart is missing some data before 2007. So do you reckon we have seen the EUR top in gold for quite a while?

[Tacitus @TacitOrdo]

@TheLastDegree @wmiddelkoop @Tradingchannels Did you notice that all that last weeks price smash in gold achieved was a retest of the 20 year broken out tradingchannel of Gold in euro's?

What this page is
This is a **COMEX delivery notice**.
It shows who **issued** silver (promised to deliver) and who **stopped** silver (took delivery).

First, the price
Settlement: **$78.29**

This is the **official paper price** used to settle January silver contracts on Jan 30.
It does not mean physical silver was freely available at this price.
It’s just the number contracts are settled against.

Now the dates
Intent date: Jan 30
Delivery date: Feb 3
(Crash date : Jan 30)

Jan 30 is when buyers said: “I want metal, not cash.”
Feb 3 is when metal must actually change hands.

Now the key numbers

Issued: **633 contracts**
Stopped: **633 contracts**

That means:
Every single contract issued found a buyer who demanded delivery.
No cash settlement imbalance.
This was clean, forced delivery.

Each contract = 5,000 oz

So:
633 × 5,000 = **3,165,000 ounces**

That’s **3.17 million ounces** of silver demanded for delivery in one day.
• ≈ 98,600 kg
• ≈ 98.6 metric tons

Who did the heavy lifting
JP Morgan Securities **issued 633 contracts**
That means JP Morgan was the main party **on the hook to deliver metal**.
There are two ways to close a short:

Buy it back on the market
That’s closing the short with paper. No metal involved.

Deliver metal
That’s closing the short with reality.

In this delivery notice, JP Morgan issued 633 contracts.

“Issued” means:
They did not buy back the short.
They fulfilled it by delivering silver.

So in practical terms:
Yes, that short position is now gone.
But it was closed by handing over metal, not by covering in the market.

That’s an important distinction.

Others like HSBC, Wells Fargo, Macquarie, etc., were mostly stoppers (takers).

Month-to-date
Month to date deliveries: **2,514 contracts**

That equals:
2,514 × 5,000 = **12.57 million ounces** delivered so far in February.

Why this matters, simply

Think of COMEX like a warehouse with:
• A price board on the wall
• A delivery door at the back

Price can be pushed around on the board.
Delivery happens at the door.

This report shows:
• Real buyers walked to the door
• Metal had to be sourced
• Big banks had to hand it over

Philosophically

Price is opinion.
Delivery is truth.

When people stop arguing about price and start demanding metal, the system is no longer theoretical.
It becomes physical.

[Tacitus @TacitOrdo]

@Volume_Stocks Interesting to see how different you view this setup. This is the chart dating back to 2014. I see no breakout, no clearance of the volume shelves and no remarkable volume coming in.
