I found out about M.A. around half a year ago. Myself being an engineer, I don't want to learn, I want to understand.
And for me that was possible only following M.A.

So Gumbi just finally REVEALed himself as the real Martin Armstrong who has been posting promotional lies here, in this private message to AnonymousCoder. But various other forum participants have already guessed this out sometime in 2019.

Defamation is only valid if the person being sued is NOT telling the truth.

Checkmate back at Martin Armstrong.

Let's think for a bit. WHY would a great "forecaster" Martin Armstrong bother to sue anyone, when his forecasting record is supposedly impeccable, and supposedly making all of his subscribers so filthy rich, and that his forecasting record should have spoken for itself?

WHY? WHY? I don't think I need to tell you the answers.

There is no such thing as bad publicity.

But I think in the end you are doing Armstrong a great service regardless because he has more than enough followers and subscribers to his service and probably would not be able to handle the influx of new people so on behalf of Armstrong and his team we thank you.

I will sue you for defamation if you keep this up

AnonymousCoder"Quarterly reversal time unit is one quarter. Gold rallied before the quarter was over and no other signal in the opposite direction was available to indicate change of direction.

The time span is 1 to 3 units in time so the quarterly bearish reversal had 1 to 3 quarters before time was up.

Armstrong wrote on his private blog on the first of March our quarterly level of the model generated a bullish reversal at the end of the year reversing its short position and going long. This also signaled that gold would rally from the $1060 area and should test the next bullish reversal at the $1347 level."

Not sure if you are aware or not but you are losing this discussion.

Can you point to which route on econsumer.gov we should take to file a complaint?

Martin Armstrong https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_A._Armstrong claims he is a forecaster, and he sells forecasts. He claims that he has a Global Artificial Intelligence Computer that he uses to make his forecasts. He reports numerous success stories with falsified forecasting performance. He projects different types of crises and sells expensive reports and conferences. He claims that consumers of his products survive the projected crises financially. He also sells a computer based trading system Socrates as a service for trading purposes with fraudulent performance claims. It clearly contains buy and sell signals although he claims in his fine print that it is for educational purposes only. He offers buy and sell advice in his subscription based blog. He claims that he has been the largest institutional and government advisor for decades. However most if not all of his performance claims are falsified. For example, no government has ever asked him for advice - instead the US government locked him up in prison for 11 years, and his recent petition was denied: https://certpool.com/dockets/19-392.
The details of his scam are exposed at https://armstrongecmscam.blogspot.com/ which is a blog site. However it is organized and structured to some extent so it is easy to read. Further information can be found at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1082909.new#new which is more difficult to read but contains more information. Martin Armstrong is a master of publishing his content and getting interviews from various affiliated alt-finance sites such as zerohedge.com, financialsense.com, bnnbloomberg.ca, dailymotion.com, fxstreet.com, marketsanity.com, omny.fm, peakprosperity.com, financialsurvivalnetwork.com, usawatchdog.com and others. Most recently, an affiliate even created a Coronavirus scam by creating a petition where Martin Armstrong is advertised as a government advisor to solve the crisis. See "Bring in the expert Martin Armstrong to stop the destruction of the world economy" https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/bring-expert-martin-armstrong-stop-destruction-world-economy. He also sells an electronic book trying to profit from the crisis: "Coronavirus and Next Great Depression". I am suggesting that you read all pages of https://armstrongecmscam.blogspot.com/ That info I guess would be sufficient to create a court case against him. There is one overarching theme which is that he is barred from providing financial advice, and that his fine print on the product he sells states that it is for educational purposes only. However, he is continuously making public statements to the contrary selling his services as trading advice. There is proof of that on the quoted site. The other theme is that via the misrepresentation of the performance of his forecasting engine, he is misrepresenting the performance of his services in general because he claims that his services are driven by that engine. The misrepresentation has many manifestations, including the falsification of forecasting track records as documented on https://armstrongecmscam.blogspot.com/.

...The downplaying of the virus by Armstrong could not only be dangerous financially, but also healthwise.

But then I noticed something curious. The book was last available on 24 March 2020 on eBay from the same seller account. While MA uses private listings, you can still match user IDs from the first and last letters of the hidden ID. The chances of getting random matches is likely to be low based on how varied user IDs are on the platform. Private listings are ideal for sellers who may be shill bidding or up to something nefarious, so I wouldn't rule out something underhand going on. Bragging about a sold out book is typical snake oil salesman tactic to then up sell a far more expensive product (report or WEC) - human psychology again.

And it looks like the following buyers purchased MA's book again, on the 20 April AND managed it within the small 15 minute time window they had before the book sold out:

1***1
c***a
e***c
e***t
f***e
h***a
i***r
i***s
l***e
t***t


Ask yourself if this sounds feasible, where so many (10) of the same buyers of the book from 24 March would all be around on 20 April, for those brief 15 minutes, to buy the book again?

Those probably are friends and family helping things along.


And if you want to find out more about becoming a best selling author on Amazon, all in the name of selling "training" content, which is what MA does sell, read this:
https://observer.com/2016/02/behind-the-scam-what-does-it-takes-to-be-a-bestselling-author-3-and-5-minutes/

It looks like he has this big pile of books that he does not know how to get rid of so he basically makes lemonade from lemons.

You guys see what I see under "Similar sponsored items" and "People who viewed this item also viewed", right?

What's this all about?

I was foolish enough to buy one of Armstrong's gold reports four years back and was a subscriber to Socrates for a few months.

The Gold report was a complete waste. It was 90 percent about history. His benchmarks were meaningless and incorrect, and no matter what happened, Armstrong could point to some random vague sentence and claim something.

Socrates was just as bad (only cheaper). The arrays were confusing as hell, usually never correct, and the directional changes never happened. In the summaries, there were odd spelling mistakes. Socrates is allegedly a computer that is never wrong, so how could it misspell simple words?

Armstrong probably duped me out of $900 over 3 years. He should be in jail for being the biggest fraud in history.

Also, still waiting for the collapse of the Euro he has been calling to happen for 4 years.

You'd think Armstrong would have seen a 35 percent market decline coming from late February to late March. He didn't.
On his own blog, one of his fake emails claimed he nailed the top of the market in January (which he obviously didn't as it peaked Feb. 19 or 20).

Martin Armstrong runs Socrates and his charts on a DOSBox emulator. I would not be surprised if Socrates had a Y2K moment and crashed when dealing with negative numbers.

I am not joking. And if you have ANY doubts, take a look at the video on this blog post. It's a recording of DOS BOX https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/qa/the-markets-in-turmoil-a-false-move-preparing-for-something-else/

You should archive those videos before he takes it down.

Crude Oil & The Future
Posted Jul 9, 2014 by Martin Armstrong
Nevertheless, oil peaked intraday in 2009 but the highest yearly close came in 2011. It is poised to rally into 2017 and it appears this is lining up with our war models.

... but I take it all with a big grain of salt and I don't pay for any of his services/reports (anymore). Learned that lesson a few years back after 2 or 3 of his "reports".
Thanks for the above link. Is that your next target to be harassed out of existence?

Hello out there.

Anybody subscribed to the private blog want to discuss/share MA's views on
whether the markets have already bottomed (March 23) and/or when a slingshot
might potentially occur? Does he expect a double bottom?

Fred

If you don't realize what's really happening after 400 pages of this, you deserve to be ripped off.

HI nstrdms, is there a way to get the reversal script for Tradingview - I would like to see this on my chart if this work. Myself only have the basis version of socrates, so no access to the reversals but would like to have them plot on my charts.

Thanks
