10-Minute Contrarian

Stay tuned until the end for a new token I had bought and had forgotten to mention (sorry).  But there should be a pullback for all to enter if they choose to, and this hints at my overall bias as to what's going to happen in crypto markets this year.  And how does this bias pertain to the Metaverse and the top projects I'm looking at there? We go over all of it, in Episode 87.   Recommended Crypt...

The number 2 economy in all of the world is going from almost completely shut down, so operational again.  And they use a lot of energy and lot of metals.  Pretty safe to say we should all be paying attention to it.  But is it as significant as people are making it out to be?  VP has opinions on this, as usual.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononse...

It's time to move onto 2023 predictions for the USD, JPY and all things energy which include oil, natural gas, uranium, and copper.  It's very hard to make a 12-month prediction for most things energy, but that will not stop us from foolishly attempting to.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrencies/best-crypto-trading-platf...

There is still more to discuss regarding indices for 2023, and we also move into the gold, silver, and platinum markets as well.  If you can figure these out, you can have a pretty good grip on the overall direction for 2023, so spending some real time on these is very important.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrencies/be...

What the Fed does will impact everything in all likelihood, and most people seem to think they're going to do the same thing.  Does VP feel the same way?  You may already know the answer, but feel free to listen to his worthless prediction anyway as we gear up for what is certainly going to be a very interesting 2023.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://...

And what a year it was.  Everyone's portfolio went down, but we had a lot more wins than most investors did, so there's that.  VP goes over every sector relevant to a contrarian audience, and wraps up one crazy 2022.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrencies/best-crypto-trading-platform/   For Decentralized Crypto Trading -...

So many people gave up on the metaverse for no good reason this year other than number didn't go up, and projects, which take years to create, didn't complete and start making owners money right away.  Those people may come back, they may not, but they're not important.  For the rest of us, this Q4 report is for you.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://n...

2022 has been a down year.  Take any advantage you can.  But know the rules for tax loss harvesting in your area and for your particular situation.  In Episode 80, VP looks at 7 different sectors that contrarians like to participate in, and talk about whether or not he would or would not sell for tax loss harvesting reasons.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - h...

Central Bank Digital Currencies are coming whether we want them to or not.  In Episode 79, we dispel a few myths about them, explain how the whole process in the US is likely to go down, and most importantly, what we can all do about it.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrencies/best-crypto-trading-platform/   For Decentral...

Even though price was bullish this week, there's little reason to get excited, even though social media will do its absolute best to mislead you again.  We review some of those ways, add a few new ones, and talk about what could be a very scary time coming up in the crypto market.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrencies/b...

Can you name them?  There are three assets that have inexplicably fallen recently, and they all have a common thread.  The drop in price didn't make a lot of sense to most people, so their natural inclination is to think the days of high prices are over.  But we know better.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrencies/best-cr...

Trying to figure out Bitcoin's future is important.  It still takes the entire market with it.  We take an honest and realistic look at what we can expect going forward, attempting to break through the rhetoric, and uncover some of the other things Bitcoin brings to the table.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrencies/best-...

Where to even begin?  The CPI print would have been top story in just about any other week, but then FTX.com happened.  We recap the week that was, what we did about it, and what we plan on doing about it all down the line.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrencies/best-crypto-trading-platform/   Blueberry Markets Blog (Top...

It sucks and we don't want it this way, but the entire financial landscape has been centralized down to the whims of a one Mr. Jerome Powell (or his overlords, we're not sure).  While nobody knows what he's going to say or do on Fed Day, we can at least try and make reasonable assumptions as to what he's going to do mid to long-term, and plan our strategies accordingly.   Recommended Crypto Tradin...

There have been an unusual amount of bull cases being made in the market the past week or so, and price has followed.  We go over those cases, and discuss a method I have been using lately to make sure I don't get left behind, on the very off chance that the next rally we see really is "the one".   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cr...

An unusual confluence of events have led us to what might be a perfect zone to enter and re-enter our positions in silver.  Silver investing has been a rough place to be lately, but for a very specific reason.  A reason that may be going away very soon.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrencies/best-crypto-trading-platform/...

We trust banks.  We always have.  But should we still?  A lot has happened in the past two weeks that would make even the most uninformed person reconsider their blind faith in our banking institutions.  And if banks fail, so do we.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrencies/best-crypto-trading-platform/   Blueberry Markets...

We're not done trying to find alpha in recessionary and depressionary (Is that a word?) times.  After a correction and an expansion on a topic from last week's episode, we provide two additional avenues to explore.  Avenues that have a really good chance to go up in the next couple of years, regardless of what the economy does.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility)...

You don't have to just sit back and play defense during recessions.  There have historically been several places to generate positive returns during these times, and they just happen to be places we contrarians already like to play.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrencies/best-crypto-trading-platform/   Blueberry Markets...

This is more of a "Greatest Hits" episode, as we take inventory of what we have, and what we need going forward.  I still think we have a long way to go, and in Episode 68, we lay out the reasons why, remind ourselves what we should be buying or holding at this time, and prepare for the worst.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/crypt...

I am very bullish on AAVE once the market finally turns around.  But why?  And when is the market expected to turn around?  When is DeFi coming back?  What would it take for these things to happen?  We go over all of that, plus a fresh market update in episode 67.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrencies/best-crypto-tradin...

This wasn't the case before.  To find the asymmetry I was looking for, I had to go with lower market-cap investments which had less chance to succeed.  Now that prices have fallen, it's a much different story.     Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrencies/best-crypto-trading-platform/   Blueberry Markets Blog (Top FX Broker)...

VP goes deeper into the psychology of your average crypto holder to further pinpoint their foolish mistakes, so we as contrarians can further distance ourselves from their all-too-contagious mentality.  This will be part one of a two-part series.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrencies/best-crypto-trading-platform/   Blue...

This week we take questions from the audience, and go over things we may or may not have covered in the past.  Everything from a weekly market update, to China, to shitcoins, to book/podcast recommendations, to how I structure my investing spreadsheets.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrencies/best-crypto-trading-platform/...

Accountability time.  Today we talk about the two things I endorsed on this podcast that I really did expect bigger things from than we've gotten so far.  Even though we understand patience and the long game, I really did anticipate more immediate upside out of these two in particular.   Recommended Crypto Trading Platform (Bonus and Contest Eligibility) - https://nononsenseforex.com/cryptocurrenc...
