    All things considered, gold is holding up pretty well. (Only down 8% since the beginning of March)

    Don't know whether that will last or not.
    What about "digital gold" / crypto?

      Currently shorting it. We have CME gap at 3570 dollars. Every other gap has been filled so a good chance we're headed down there

        Yep and just like 2008 I jumped in too early, so nursing some paper losses at the moment.

        But just like 2008 it will eventually bottom and then recover. Trick is when, and what to buy and what to avoid.

          Been cost averaging in since we hit the 'incredible buy' signal on Ether.

              The sharpness of the drop is not something I've ever since before except in crypto markets. Usually such a drop would indicate a scam, hack, someone was able to create more coins out of think air - that sort of thing

                  This is all look like capitulation. But it could also be a massive bull trap. Markets just don't recover that quickly. Too many people are expecting a bounce back to the top. It's not going to happen. Be patient, this downtrend is not going to stop until Mid-May.

                      I think we can all make some huge money here if we buy or sell the right thing at the right time and then buy or sell that thing at the right time later on.

                      The only bits I'm vague on are.

                      What to buy or what to sell
                      When to buy and when to sell
