Actionable Trade-Alert from Rick in the Trading Room (Please check all related discussion in the room before you do any trades.)For lack of genuine interest, Bitcoin has flunked the reinstatement test. The $2800(!) bounce off yesterday's low came from within 22 points -- that is a fiftieth of a percentage point --  of the 87,722 target I'd advertised in the last update. There was no mention of this in the room, not even from the dozen-or-so subscribers who professed to want BTC to remain on the list. Accordingly, starting on Sunday, I will substitute Copper for BTCUSD. I am willing to provide private forecasts for anyone who wants them, but the charge will be $1500/month, and I will need at least four signups to initiate coverage. The service will come with a money-back guarantee, details on request. Serious inquiries only, at rick@rickackerman.com

A rally in the meantime to p=99,526 would trigger a 'mechanical' short there. Do the trade only if you know how to set up a 'camo' trigger' and where the stop-loss should be placed, based on 1:3. Virus-free.www.avg.com

(The futures rallied to 72.720 before returning to the low.) The subsequent, so-far low at 70.225 picked up dubious support from a 70.250 clown low recorded Monday. That means clowns are dominant at the moment and will suffer further losses when the low gets taken out. The next target below would be D=68.030 (A=80.815 on the hourly, 12/29 at 1:00 a.m.) It would take a print at 72.725 to get back in bullish gear. Virus-free.www.avg.com

Actionable Trade-Alert from Rick in the Trading Room (Please check all related discussion in the room before you do any trades.)This morning's rigged, short-squeeze opening created challenging highs too ambitious for dog-tired, gutless bulls to surpass, but you never know.  The Trading Room is far more interesting than the markets themselves.

Actionable Trade-Alert from Rick in the Trading Room (Please check all related discussion in the room before you do any trades.)Thursday, December 11, 2025 00:0000:12  RickORCL, a boastful and exuberant participant in the circular-revenues scheme that juiced the AI bubble, has become the mine canary. Its crash after the close hints that the bubble's collapse will come sooner rather than later. The stock's initial, bizarre feint $8 higher on the news underscores the fact that it is Wall Street's most adroit pond scum who have been running the game all along.

(13:41 post). The futures Whoopee-Cushioned from a penny below it overnight, reminding me once again not to write off a trade just because a potential turning point has been missed by pennies on the first pass. This is a crucial concern with 'mechanical' trades, where there is no valid signal on a pullback to x unless p has actually been touched. It also applies to using targets even if there is a consolidation just shy of them. That's where the most deceptive head-fakes occur. If you have a good pattern that you're confident few others see, trust the HP levels to do what you expect of them.10:0010:40  Nick the GreRickGood afternoon any pause for the silver tradable close by? {{{{ [[ Use a=59.90 (12/5) on the March 60-min to buy a $1.43 pullback to 'p' from any high.

Actionable Trade-Alert from Rick in the Trading Room (Please check all related discussion in the room before you do any trades.)11:35  RickThe touted Bitcoin trade worked nicely and could have been covered this morning for an overnight profit of around $2,300. As expected, the rally was short-lived and exceeded the green line by just 0.4% before receding to within a hair of p=89,500. The recommendation was explicitly detailed and, presumably, clear enough for any subscriber to have done the trade. Any reports?12:0012:30  Peter TBTC update - report , once I've noticed BTC above 92K in the morning - decided to target 94,181 . Wrong intuition so far, still holding BITU ETF . [{{ Use my tout.

If it touches the green line, that would signal a further fall to at least p=6766.75. With $3500 of entry risk, I would use a small-pattern (i.e., 'camo') trigger to cut that by at least 90%, I would also back up the truck, using an even tighter trigger, to attempt bottom-fishing at p.12:52  Rickhttps://bit.ly/48OAMxc12:55  WalterRick, I was looking at it but I am still learning so I only did the paper exercise. Because d was not hit I was not sure if x would still be valid.
