The following is a presentation of TFNN the Tiger Technician Hour with your host Basil Chapman call now toll free at 1-877-927-6648 hi everyone Basil Chapman on this 18th of September gosh September just flew along we're looking at the Dowdown 54 30 4563 so this is really important this is a pattern that I talk about the lowercase h that goes to a lowercase m look he has your h pattern right there and then you make a lowercase m and what happens if it takes out this left-sided low right here this is on the fifth though it's at the 6th yeah the 6th of September at 34,291 there's a chance you can go down to this low of 34,023 it's a little difficult to see 29 right there and that's the low of 25th of August so in this context what we're looking at is stalling pattern in the up move of the Dow because it's still in a cell mode the weekly chart hasn't yet gone to a cell signal it will go to that if it closes below 33,850 this week or at least goes under it doesn't have to close under it I'll probably go to a cell signal and the weekly chart nothing to say it's still doing pretty well SMB we're gonna do this today because it's the beginning of the week it's the second part of the month look at the S&P S&P goes to 44 44 down five and a half we're looking at this H pattern so you've got one large H this is a second potential now just say potential we don't know you can only do your homework and say this is the pattern that I'm anticipating because of such and such and such and such well the such and such is right here but that green nine-period moving average we'll see today but so far it hasn't turned pink and looks like it could but it hasn't yet let me just check this for a moment here just want to see yeah there it is so the one minute just turned pink and I've got this left side right side price time match I didn't want to extend to the right have I got to yes I've got to the exact level so now I can say bye 10 29 this morning there's a chance that we going to hit the 44 88 level here we are at 44 92 but I also need to draw in the target support line shall we've target support line so every time it hits it it might take a little bit of a balance and I'll put an X it doesn't have to do it but this is the homework that I like to do to say hey I've done my work if the selling continues this is the way it's going to be but if it's not then there's 200-period moving average right yet 44 95 95 that's going to be a magnet and it could stay there quite a while so two patterns are fighting for prominence right here looking at the ten minute chart sideways action isn't amazing look at this between between I'll go to this bar I had one at 120 on the 15th that's 120 in the afternoon the high was 45 0 9 point 50 look at this all the way through between that low and this this that high and this lower 44 95 the E-mini stayed in this level all the way through until I was watching it this morning as it took it out at 740 but it just went underneath that at 44 4492 now it's back in this range it's making a new range a rectangle formation I love the way these things work it's just there's a price note to do that anyway it's doing that now let's do something else we want to look at the arch formation now if you look at the weekly chart I like to do this just to show you that there's a way of measuring strength look at this particular point and what date was that that was July the week of yeah July the 28th the high was 46 0 7 point 0 7 in the S&P when it made a high three weeks ago the first of the week of the first of September 45 41 a lower high the 9-period moving average was still excellent the Magdea turned down the stochastic was already turning down so I'll just do this here to show you how I like to do measured moves measured moves in terms of strength that is a vertical assessment and what we're looking at is the unbalanced volume was much lower and yet the price is held very steady I'm impressed with that I'm impressed when what should be a sharp down move instead holds very steady because there's one in this particular my indicator of last resort the 914 has held the price up look at the weekly chart really good this is a peak scene with very modest lower highs in August and September so far the unbalanced volumes pull back got a little bit overboard pull back a little bit Magdea is still good and look at the stochastic at 91% that is excellent that's the reason why I've been saying over and over and over I don't want to go heavily heavily heavily short because there's internal strength and its rotation and isn't it amazing as I said subscribers the other day I said here we are three strikes and you're right well as three strikes for the auto industry you've got crude oil look at this crude oil is up near multi-year highs or at least a year and a half highs look 92 81 I don't like to print I make this very light because I don't like to print the price in on a continuous contract because it gets smoothed out so all of a sudden that 92 81 is disappearing for the week of the 11th of November of 2022 almost a year ago that's where we were right now we're at 91 18 I would say 91 80 is that almost it's less than two dollars away from where it was almost a year ago and in the interim period it's gone all the way down to 64 this low right here was 62 point 58 62 and here we are at 90 that's a 27 something percent gain now look at the weekly monthly charge monthly charge hey don't even think about you've got a long way to get to get to a new all-time high because that all-time high was back in back in March of 2022 at 117 remember this is smooth so the right now I'm saying to 117 that nothing changes the the notation in the Chatham Wave the pattern nothing changes except the smooth the price gets smoothed out but where when was it last year it was last year in 2014 the week of June the 30th 2014 and before that was just a little higher at 120.83 and that was in August of 2013 and then you can go all the way back but the most serious high was this Russia Invades Georgia in August of 2008 and remember we went through this really carefully as it was happening I said there's a big difference yet because if this if this war it was an incursion now it's a war but if this incursion lasts more than 10 days there's a change but if it lasts more than a month there's that's a big big difference and that says it's going to last a lot longer so that's crude oil crude oil you can heating oil H.O. continuous contract and the winter hasn't started and here it is testing the triple high Wilson the quite this will be the triple high that we're looking at right now at 3.36 hey yeah yeah I'll be back puzzle chap attack and this is our downtown 38

the heating all continuous contract training at 3.37 with this peak D made on Friday a little bit lower today we got quicker with peak ABCD and now we're pulling back the last one took quite a while and took the same thing it had an instant restart this is a fascinating one because it had three buy modes AB from the low that was made back in this is May I think it was yep May the week on May the 4th it goes to 2.12 ups 2.03 at the low there goes peak ABC takes its time gets to the D and that's where the and then within one bar it goes to an E pulls back holds the 40-period moving average uses the 9-period moving average which is still very strong and it goes to peak ABCD again with the chap we've instant restart goes to peak E-A-B-C G-C watch it because very often it goes to a D but this D didn't pull back strong enough to give a cell signal because the 9 held so beautifully so it went to the E and then it pulled back quite sharply with the technicals in this case I decided that it held two bars underneath the 14 moving average that means there's a good chance that you can call that a cell signal not a cell mode yet but a cell signal and then it goes peak ABC got another D a much smaller move to the upside than the other extensive peak D's so the third time this is where you can start to see a little bit of a digestive phase and lo and behold now I drew this in during the break I normally wouldn't have done this so long I'm always a little bit more I'd say cautious it looks like it's aggressive but it really is cautious because what I would do is I'd be looking at this and I say you know that looks too long to get to back to that level I'm going to make a little bit shorter so I'm going to initially choose a particular candle that there's a methodology that I teach my subscribers and I go to a particular candle I say you know this looks closer to what I would be thinking of so let me see if I can do that and he has he has one of the lows this is one of the highs I use the high but I'm preferred to particular candle an indecisive candle and then I go green and I just say hey where's this going to take me oops I made that yellow should be green make that green remember the colors and stuff I'm using just for demonstration purposes because I could just use a single line make it a single line solid and then a dash nine I don't need all the colors and then I would say okay so this is the this is the the line that I'm talking about the inside wedge target resistance line and I'm trying to make a join right there at where this ends so this is to let's just see what happens so I do that this is kind of what I'd be doing we didn't have using all at all I'm just saying this is the analysis that I would do as I do with almost all the charts that I show my subscribers and positions we have make this green and it might or might not fit look there's nothing even getting close now starting to get a little close and no more what does it do it goes right to that particular line right there but it fails to make that high and it pulls back for one bar peak D and then look nothing's technically bad back these good stochastic flutter 91% even now as we speak and it goes to an E so it's one it's two bars late now there was two bars late gate all the way back to November the week in November the fourth and it's already gone from 3.45 down to $2 and something cents 2.03 is that I mean that's amazing right so this has met all the criteria and this is the what I would call a lopsided cup formation like that and to that level right there what I would have put it to here and it took a little longer all right so this is saying now this particular pattern here look at the high that was made in heating oil way back in June of 2022 a 2.56 continuous contract remember so that's June 2.56 look at this this is November of 2022 and that is 2 3.45 and look where we are right now 3.50 so I can now draw in a trend line so let's just do that and see how that pans out this is for heating oil heating all this is September I mean we've had some beautiful weather here on the Northeast not I don't mean beautiful in the sense that it hasn't rained all that and we didn't have storms but warm it's been pretty warm so this is what I'm looking at chap we've inside wedge so inside track make that grid make that green and it says heating oil could in fact bump into resistance for maybe a month but then there's a chance that if it takes out yeah yeah let me just do this this is live so this is expand this right now so this is the line that I'm looking at generally inside track I usually try to make it as small as possible right there and right there and low involved oh I think I should be doing something right now yeah yeah so this is it so it says that heating was making rise higher highs and not higher lows but this beautiful cup formation so this is I did a lot of work you know there's a cup and handle pattern there's another pattern that I look at just if you don't mind I have to do this and let me just check this can move that away wow that was a that was a pretty good rally up there so we're almost running out of time to come back to this never remember I like to say you're looking at two fighting patterns so this was like the cup formation right here in the one minute try to forgive me for for breaking off here but it's really what happens this first hour tonight to 10 20 and then from 10 20 to about 12 20 then 12 20 to 230 and 230 to the close today those are the segments I'm looking at so this did get to the C in the D peak C go by signal should go to a peak D so it did go to the C as your DN is holding very nicely so it didn't fail by 10 30 to get down to the 48 for 488 level instead of kept walking the nine period moving average so this is holding when I'm kind of impressed with this market when you think about all the stuff that's going on and yet it isn't just collapsing I that's the reason why we are short but I have respectful sources but of that when I wanted to add shorts and I said hi I don't trust today this is a day where overnight on Sunday night we should have been down 45 50 points in the S&P we weren't and that's just saying maybe the administration is going to do something really quickly and just say okay for I mean when you can't get to election closer to elections this is the way bargaining power becomes your best bet so I think the unions are going to get something pretty darn good the way I'm looking at it and where where can you remember three unions at once going for a strike three order unions to boot so this is to me this might resolve a little quicker that means of course you got to worry about three years out when inflation kind of kicks in when all of these different factors kick in that's something different all together maybe there'll be something to alleviate they may be down it's coming on you know oh so I lost my momentum there the crude oil the hot crude oil but I am saying the crude oil the crude oil breaks into the full wallet area this contract any two weeks it holds for two years much higher here it is close to resistance I'll be

look at this this is WBA this is Walgreen Walgreen boots I can't believe what's going on here which also remind me as I'm looking at it I had this chart which I drawn ages ago because we had George from New York who was interested in that a long time ago and we did an analysis on it it had a couple of balances but basically it's making low lows and George actually I didn't hear from George for a little while I'm a little kind of concerned so George I hope you're doing well so look at this from 2008 where it made a low of 21.28 that's October of 2008 that's 21.28 the low on March the March of 2009 was 21.39 that's I'd say that that's about 11 cents higher and then it took off and it ran all the way to this Chapman wave two bar reversal 97 27 July of 2015 to 97.33 cents higher September of 2015 exactly seven years eight years ago and I should type that in 1992 point of 90 there we go so that's 97.30 in August 97.38 20 2015 okay so it has a little bit of a tumble it's now down to 21.96 remember the low that we were looking at here 21.28 was it double bottom 21.28 next next month was 21.50 so 21.28 back in October of 2008 21.28 10.8 that was the monthly year 20 wow that was 20.09 gosh so here it's back cut cut about 60% off it's high so my thinking has been companies like this when you've got a CVS I'm gonna get to Lily because I just wanted to do this this medical field so CVS oops type it into there there we go CVS which has a much better looking chart now I have this all notated I lost all that I'll do it again I can do it I don't want to waste time so it made this beautiful cup formation failed right here now this is absolutely the Chapman very long-legged Chapman wave Roman candle high I mean wow I mean what more could you want in terms of analysis right so here you go from this side how these bar symmetries work is just there's a Chapman wave 2 bar reversal right there at an all-time high and it goes right to this particular low right here click now we're gonna go let me just double-check that wasn't so that's 111 65 and<PHONE_NUMBER> 1358 so it goes from there that's a perfect Chapman wave 2 bar reversal I prefer when it's just a couple of cents off the left side high okay so within that context if I go to this low right here the exact low then we can do this and go left side right side price time-match boom this and it goes beyond I probably would have wanted to use that candle right there that would have been still long but it doesn't matter and then it fails to get to that level just by a tad and then it turned down made it the drop bucket or the cup and handle formation failure and now it's down in the 70.80 level it actually was down to 63 was it a 64 64.62 just a month ago okay so I was thinking there's a chance that someone a company like a CVS could get if they were actually interested if this was an area that they wanted to add to they could go to the two Walgreens I don't see anything anything at this particular point that's really gonna help Walgreens to have anything but a balance and this is a takeover talk so it's just interesting that different chart patterns and I showed this the other day we didn't show this particular sequence but I showed how within the pharmaceuticals you could get an Eli Lilly doing fantastic making all-time eyes you can get a Merc not quite as good but still really good not now it's still made an all-time eye just a couple of months ago and then you can get other pharmaceuticals that were just not they just couldn't get everything together and I went through about three stocks in every sector so now what I want you to say says I discussed Eli Lilly in terms of saying this is by any measure this MagD that's the biggest move it's had ever right by any measure but the stochastic's flat at 94% that's really good the on balance volume been overboard for a while it doesn't care the price is way above the 9 the 9 period moving averages way above the 40 there is nothing other than a visual look at it that says wow parabolic or not quite parabolic but close to parabolic that has to be it's time for a big timeout the stock doesn't know it it's just doing what it needs to do because it's got a good bunch of fundamentals but what I said the question came in where where would I start entering Lily if I if I love the stock but I just it's what would I do and what I'd say this I'd wait a little bit because the data has got a peak D that was on Friday I'm anticipating a little bit more of the move this is the area 550 would be where I would start my initial entry point but I'd still be careful I'd much be prefer that you use an option a call option going into January or maybe December give it a lot of time because I think if this digest gains which we've seen in a lot of stocks over the last year that have had spectacular moves when they give back they give back quite a chunk and they do it very very quickly so I mean just look at Coca-Cola look at the data chart I mean all the weekly look double top peak C makes a D just fractionally higher and look what it is it's underneath the cup look at GIS also in the XLP in the select defense this is a defensive area general Cheerios Annie's and other foods look at that peak F in the week monthly look at that peak E in the in the weekly look at this peak right here PG in the daily I mean that is and that's the thing I've been worried about and that's what we found that's the reason why I've been taking for subscribers we've been taking money off on the big moves up even this UEC we took a lovely chunk off on Friday a tad I should say but it's getting so overboard that I've got to be a little careful well the pullback so far today to 490 when it was trading at 555 I mean that's an 11% decline now it's already come back now just down 10 cents but you've got to have money management in this environment I'll be back and we'll discuss million a little bit more detail and then I want to

thinking that the question was where do I enter along I think that was a question last week for some but actually I just got a note say oh this is the one that lost that the notation yeah yeah yeah what am I going to do now all right I'll just do this and type it in and see what happens peak a there it's gone peak B I'll do this you can see it I'll have to do find out what's going on with this particular C1 big C2 right there then it goes peak a B C D and there's your E just like you got the G slash C goes I usually goes through a D and then you're going to be careful this meant to the D and then quickly went to the E now it's coming down so this is what I'd be looking at just about everything I said before as if you were long thinking where you would like to nibble I'm going to say on the short side at this shorting right at the top which I congratulations I think this is just pretty much what you did is what gives you a little bit of a cushion so you see this little gap yet about 560 and the low today has been 564.41 I'm going to do this I'm going to make it as conservative as possible I go from this low not the very low I'm going to go from this low to this particular candle right here I like cup formation lows as a visual that I can benchmark and then I'm going to go right here and I'm going to say I should I move it to the right I'll do that number of bars to the right this is take it here format space to the right it's an 8 I'm going to make it 15 and now what we've got and this is what I'd be looking at by 15 30 by 3 30 on the 21st of this week I probably say it's even quicker than that I'm just being a little conservative here there's a chance that Eli Lilly will I'll go to this one here we'll hit that level of this particular low right here okay 552 whoa that's a long way to go so I would normally I'd go to this level here because this is your a Chapman wave inside track no this is you this is a Chapman wave inside wedge support line right there okay so that's what we're looking at yes your arch formation don't be don't be surprised there's such a strong stock that it bounces to 580 if it goes to 580 you got to be a little bit careful but this is kind of what I'm looking at right now that over the next couple of days starts to make low lows and lower highs it's just at a point where it's going to try to do something because that was really quick after such a fabulous move to the upside but I would treat this as a short-term trade and you might be surprised and it actually does everything you want but when it's this strong buyers are very reluctant to give up it would have to be trading under 540 probably under 540 to 540 that area for people to say oh man I've got it this is not working for me okay but I think you absolutely the entry that you've got if you did get it earlier than this like Friday sometime that's great you've got a little bit of a cushion and next thing we want to look at here is let's go through this the high grade copper high grade copper is just in a trading range lowercase h goes to a lowercase there we go I can still treat this just as one big arch formation in this particular point got repelled under the 200-period moving average question came in when you go XLE could you look at your XLE yep XLE this is almost like Eli Lilly and that it had a fantastic move to the upside this I keep talking about this and I keep getting surprised when people look at this and they say well can you look back and I'll look back and I say wait a minute the XLE select S&P energy spider fund made a high of 94.71 the week of the 18th of November so there it is so this is 94.71 I should type that in because I'm not able to forget it and what was the high just the other day 94.71 and what did it do it ran to a high three days ago last Thursday of 93 93.69 amazing huh this is almost a year later 93.69 so within that context now a lot of people are here look at this and they say it's gone nowhere I can never do that I mean what do you mean go nowhere it dropped by about a third it went down to the 75 area it ran up to 87 that's a good good percentage move comes back makes the lowercase H successful left side does not test it holds it successfully that becomes an arch formation and that's usually a very powerful move of the closes above the dreaded H arch and look there it is now it's going to the chapter inside track resistance line look yes another one this is a bigger much bigger move but I mean I'm going to exclude that for now because normally when it's achieved all the things that we want I just get rid of it so I'm going to take this away because it doesn't for it to apply it just it's broken too many rules but this does apply this move right here where it's gone from this low from that low to the right side so now let me do a left side right side price time match look there it is 94 71 goes to that bar right there I'm going to be a little bit more there so we're going to go to this this long leg of doji is undecisive candle I'll go new I'll go green and that just says even energy is getting up to a level that says now it's going to be bumping into resistance and it right this is exactly where it's bumping into resistance there's a falling exclamation there's the breakout and it's moving to the upside this is the more conservative one I actually lifted this up once that was a more conservative one and now it's done the one-to-one to the upside I've got a little thing that I could hear and I'm going to go Garo in Newport Beach Garo how are you I'm very good sir how about you I'm very good what can we look at today looking at Moderna M RNA yes I'm sure I sure that today when it dropped below the 50 day moving average in the 15 minutes but by looking at the daily chart if you go back for two years on a daily chart yes you'll see that you'll see that 200 EMA is below the 200 SMA so whenever the 200 EMA goes below 200 SMA that is a bad news so something is going to happen or that that situation is going to continue that short what do you think sir this is gonna this is gonna be go lower after that movie after that it went below the 200 days or it's gonna go way below that around 6665 so I'm using something a little different and I'll explain as soon as we return we've got Garo Newport Beach California we're looking at Merna that's Moderna biotech and it's getting hammered today it's down eight and a half down seven percent and one of six we'll talk about it as soon as I return you might think that if you want to be successful

haven't put the 200 under i've got my 200 period exponential moving average uh in the data in the weekly it's way below the 135 level of the so it's just meaningless right now in the data as far as i'm concerned you're using them as a crossover i'm not what i am going to say to you that that in this particular pattern if Moderna closes it might just hit it but i'm really talking about a close if it closes under the candle of the 21st of august which the low was 101.82 if it closes under that i think it's going to be a fairly quick ride down to the 90 to test the 95.02 low that was made on the 16th and i would just go step by step the fact that it's walking underneath i don't know if you can see my chart but if you look at this weekly chart look at the way it cannot it has not closed above the 14 period above the yep the black 14 period moving average closed i mean since the week of the 27th of january of this year where it was at 198 so this just says uses one indicator and it says it's still the pink is underneath the 14 period moving average in the weekly but i know you don't always use things a longer term like this but i would say to you it's in the h pattern right now for it to change it we'll probably have to close uh by wednesday above 110 i think that's going to be very difficult right now so i think you're in the right position congratulations yes sir yes sir yes sir very good very good thank you so much for looking down all the numbers down and i go by there yeah i appreciate it thank you so much thank you guys folks we've got steve rosie's back they're looking forward to his show and i just wanted to say that if the dow closes down let me just do this real quickly if the dow off to three o'clock is up 30 or 40 points that's kind of good if it's down more than 50 that says just be real careful the right catch in the


Genomic DNA sequencing by Oxford Nanopore Minayon. The learning goals in this video are Know the principle of long-read sequencing Know the basic procedure of genomic DNA sequencing by Minayon Know the interaction of dry and wet lab operations during a sequencing project In this video, you will go through the whole sequencing process of a bacterial genome by using Minayon The genomic DNA selecting for long-read protocol contains 10 steps In this video, we will start from step 2 1. Overview 2. Library preparation 3. Preparing for an experiment 4. Library preparation 5. Preparing to load a library 6. Loading a library 7. Starting a mino run 8. Data exchange using the metric core agent 9. Topping up the flow cell with library 10. Completing the experiment Minayon is a portable real-time device for DNA and RNA sequencing Each consumable flow cell can now generate 5 to 10 GB of DNA sequencing data Ultra-long-read lengths are possible Hundreds of kilobases, as you can choose your fragment length The Minayon strings data in real-time You can watch this video about the background of nanopore sequencing Library preparation In the experiment in this video, these equipment are used Nanopore sequencing kit Spot-on flow cells API to ME workflows Mino script Library preparation kit Please note that the equipment might change due to the type of sequencing Preparing for an experiment Mino software runs on the host computer to which the Minayon is connected Mino carries out several core tasks Data acquisition Real-time analysis and feedback of experimental progression Data streaming while providing device control including selecting the round parameters And ensuring that the platform chemistry is performing correctly to run the samples Specific parameters need to be filled into the Mino interface This will decide the type of sequencing experiment Assemble the Minayon spot-on flow cell And connect the Minayon to the host computer After assembling the Minayon, go back to the Mino interface and start the experiment Flow cells are shipped with a QC DNA molecule present in the buffer This molecule processes a distinctive nanopore signal The Mino software uses this signal to validate the integrity of the nanopore array Before use and provides the user with an estimation of the number of Mutaneously available channels for the experiment Active pores are reported in four groups Each of which may be used in charn when running long experiments Example a 48-hour sequencing round Shorter experiments will use fewer than four groups Library preparation To perform genomic DNA sequencing, a DNA library must be made Here you see a flow chart of a library preparation It generally contains three core steps Fragmenting or sizing the target sequences to a desired length Converting targets to double-stranded DNA Attaching oligonucleotide adapters to the end of target fragments The DNA repair step is performed to repair nicks in the DNA In order to maximize the rate length This step is performed with the use of NAPNAC's FFPE repair mix And this mixture is incubated at 20 minutes at 20 degrees DNA is purified with ampoule beads The DNA will bind to the beads on a hula mixer for five minutes And subsequent, the beads are washed two times with ethanol The beads are allowed to dry to the air A nucleus-free water is added Gently agitate the tube and incubate for 10 minutes at room temperature To harvest the DNA, the tube is placed back in the magnetic rack And the DNA is removed from the tube The end repair step is performed to repair the DNA at the end And the detailing of double-stranded DNA fragments This step is performed with the use of NAPNAC's end repair The detailing module by PCR The incubation steps are 25 minutes at 20 degrees And 25 minutes at 65 degrees DNA is purified with ampoule beads The DNA will bind to the beads on a hula mixer for five minutes And subsequent, the beads are washed two times with ethanol The beads are allowed to dry to the air A nucleus-free water is added Gently agitate the tube And incubate for 10 minutes at room temperature To harvest the DNA, the tube is placed back in the magnetic rack And the DNA is removed from the tube Adapter ligation is performed to add the adapters and the tether Taking the end prepped DNA, the following reagents are added Adapter mixed Hairpin adapter NAPNAC's quick ligation reaction buffers Quick T4 DNA ligase And nucleus-free water This mix will be incubated for 10 minutes at room temperature Hereafter, HP tether is added And subsequent incubated for 10 minutes at room temperature The DNA will be purified using my1C1 streptavidin beads To use these beads, the shipping buffer needs to be exchanged by bead binding buffer The adapted and tethered DNA library is now purified with my1C1 streptavidin beads The DNA will bind to the beads in a hula mixer for five minutes And subsequent, the beads are washed two times with bead binding buffer The DNA is eluated by elution buffer The beads with elution buffer are incubated at 37 degrees for 10 minutes The beads are pelleted in the magnet and the DNA is removed from the tube This library is called the pre-sequencing mix Store the pre-sequencing mix in an ice bucket Preparing to load a library Before the library is loaded, the following reagents are added Running buffer with fuel and nucleus-free water Before the library is loaded, the minion needs to be primed with buffer for two times Loading a library Now, the DNA library has been loaded to the minion Starting a mino round Start a sequencing round Starting a mino protocol script Progression of mino protocol script Checking progress at the beginning of the experiment The data is stored in a computer that is connected to minion If necessary, the following two steps can be performed Data is changed using the metric core agents Topping up the flow cell with library Completing the experiment Now you have learned the principle of nanopore sequencing The process of genomic DNA sequencing by using Oxford Nanopore Minion The dry and wet lab interaction when performing a sequencing project What follows is the intensive data analysis using the sequencing output


Welcome to Jalassette News, the top stories in crypto currency and Jalassets, and bring them down to bite-sized pieces today. More bullish news as if it can't get any better. But it does. Global equity headed Jeffries says the investment bank will buy Bitcoin and reduce exposure to gold. So what this means is another billion dollar company is dumping gold for Bitcoin. Also Grayscale is temporarily stopping and accepting new clients in six crypto trusts. This is not unusual as it happened back in 2019, but the timing is a little bit odd. And also, Michael Saylor and MicroStrategy have completed their purchase of almost 30,000 bitcoins for 650 million a piece, and they've been buying and a whopping of 21,925 per bitcoin. So the question is asked, if MicroStrategy keeps buying, should you? And we're getting all that at first, so let's continue on with our 12 days of Christmas. Getting away with a lot of cool stuff. Yesterday we did a drawing for the iTrust Capital crypto IRA three months free plus swag. And I had the folks over there at iTrust Capital draw and they send me over these pictures and these are the winners. We've got Eric C, Eric Phillips, James Cooper, Matthew Bogey and Gary Green. So gentlemen, if you would just do me a favor and come on over to danteachescrypto.com, click on the contact tab right here, send me an email with your name and I will send your information over to Anthony and he'll get you all set up with those three months and a swag bag. Thanks for playing. Also on top of that, we've got something special today and that is market rebellion. We're going to be giving away actually one free year long membership to the trading education platform. Now the 25th, we're going to double up by getting another free membership plus to trade the chain membership. So these, I believe, should go together. I'm going to tell you why. So market rebellion has been started by Pete and John Jarian. Those are two gentlemen right there. I think John here played for Chicago Bears. You see them on CNBC, pretty smart guys. They know a lot about options and trading and so forth. And they have been getting into cryptocurrency because they believe it is a great opportunity just like all of us. So they got a pretty good platform.  I have actually signed up. I have been too busy to get into it, but it looks really good. I need to know a little bit more about trading, even though I'm not going to do a lot of it, but I think it's something that I should understand. So if you want to win a year long membership to market rebellion, just go ahead and comment in the comments below. Just put market rebellion and I'll have the folks over there draw the name of the lucky winner and I'll let you know in tomorrow's video. But before we get into that, let's take a look at what's going on the market. So today is the 21st of December. It is almost 5 p.m. El Paso, Texas time. I'm getting done late because a lot of things to do. So what do we got? Well, a little bit of a tussle Bitcoin below 23,000 down 2.7. But hey, 20% for the week. I'll take those numbers all day long. 610 for Ethereum, XRP, 51 cents. Watch out, Tether, nobody cares. Litecoin, negative 8 cents, but still amazing run for Litecoin. I really should have gotten into that. I just can't buy Litecoin again, 28% for the seven days. I used to own it a long time ago. I just didn't really like what Charlie did. That doesn't matter. That doesn't matter. What really matters is that Litecoin is going to be huge because it's on PayPal. It's one of the four horsemen. I think it's going to be big. Bitcoin cash down almost, wow, 10%, 14% for the week chain. Like, let's see, is anything up? Geez, let's just talk about what's up. And Zippo, bupkiss. Let's take a look at Bitcoin and see if we just would invest it in Bitcoin. We've been OK or not. Well, yeah, pretty much. Yeah, yeah, yeah, except for Cosmos. Hey, congratulations, Cosmos. And that's pretty much it. So all right, let's jump into today's top stories. So here we go. This is huge. I think this is huge. This is huge to me. I was like when billion dollar companies who are heavy into gold go, you know what, we're going to drop gold and go into Bitcoin because it just proves my point or our point that people are finally trying to get it and institutions are really trying to come on in. So global equity head of Jeffries says the investment bank will buy Bitcoin and reduce exposure to gold.  It's hard to keep all these billion dollar companies straight, but Jeffries Group LLC is an American multinational investment bank and financial services company headquartered NYC firm provides capital or clients with capital markets, financial advisory services, brokerage, securities, blah, blah, blah. They do a lot of stuff. Great. Good for them. So their revenue or their total assets under management, you're looking at 44 billion, so no slouches. Looks like they know what they're doing. They know their way around a little bit of the money. So what's happening here? Well, Christopher Wood, head of equity, equity of Jeffries says his firm will reduce exposure to gold in favor of Bitcoin. This is interesting. There are plans to increase the crypto component of Jeffries long only global portfolio for US dollar denominated pension funds if and when the Bitcoin price drops from current levels. And when we get into this, it actually kind of flips around. So this is what's going on. Before this happened, Jeffries funds were as follows. It was half or 50% towards a physical gold bullion. Now it's 45% because they reduced their position. Now it's going to be 5% of Bitcoin. I think we'll increase later. 30% to Asia, ex-Japan equities and 20% to unhedged gold mining stocks. So he wrote in his weekly Greed and Fear note to all the investors. The global head of equity explains the multinational investment banks rationale for choosing Bitcoin over gold. Because I got to tell you, I got to tell you. I think this is probably a pretty shock to the system. When a lot of these guys who have been in this fund for probably quite some time, Jeffries was started in the 1960s. So I bet a lot of people have been there from their grandfather, their father and whoever else there was. Now they're saying, you know what everybody, we're going to reduce for the first time in history our position in gold to Bitcoin. That must have been a shock. So the 50% weight in physical gold bullion in the portfolio will be reduced for the first time in several years by five points with the money invested in Bitcoin. If there is a big drawdown, this is of key. If there is a big drawdown in Bitcoin from the current level, after the historic breakout about the 20,000 level, the intention will be to add to this position, which hey, even smart money does a little dollar cost averaging. So good for them. So just moving down, I don't want to get everybody's hope stash. They're not going to go all the way out of gold because Wood said this, the yellow metal should rally again if the Fed stays dovish. That's a good word. In the face of the dramatic cyclical recovery and some other stuff. So great, they're going to stay in gold. Okay, good for them. Predictions, but this is important. Predictions by strategists at JP Morgan that institutional investors will sell some of their gold holdings and use the proceeds to finance Bitcoin purchases. This is after some gold bug said it wasn't going to happen. But it's true. It's happening again and again and again. Institutions are saying, you know what? We're going to get out of gold and we're going to get into Bitcoin because the upside potential is so enormous. Bitcoin's a great hedge. I own gold, I own silver, I own Bitcoin. I own a heck of a lot more Bitcoin, I do gold and silver.  Gold is great when the world collapses and there's mutants all over the place and you're trying to save your family. But in all honesty, Bitcoin going to 100,000, I can see that. That's about a five X. I did not see gold going from whatever it is now, 1800 and jumping up to 10,000. I just, that's not going to happen. So that is why I have allocated more funds into Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies or assets. Let me know what you think of the comment section. Let's move on. Next up, this is weird timing. Grayscale temporarily stops accepting new clients in six crypto trusts. This is from Denny Nelson and just a real small snippet. He says Grayscale does pretty close off its crypto trust to so-called private placement rounds, such actions happened repeatedly in Q4 2019, which I can get that in 2019. Maybe they just had like just a big rush of people that came in or they just were lax in their purchasing of Bitcoin and they couldn't take anybody else in. But I think right now, as much as they're doing, as much as they're trying to buy and buy and buy, remember it's not just Grayscale now. Now you got to compete with PayPal. Now you got to compete with MicroStrategy. Now you got to compete with MassMutual and all the other shadow companies that aren't making a public right now. You have to compete with all those people. So maybe Grayscale is like, there's only so much to go around, so sorry. And then here's the thing, if they keep buying and buying and buying, what happens then? Well, the price goes up. They don't want the price to go up right now. They want to ease off the gas a little bit. And this goes into our next point. Even with temporary closing new investors, Grayscale will still be able to obtain added capital from existing investors until it reopens again to new ones. On Monday, JP Morgan analysts wrote that a dramatic slowdown in Grayscale Bitcoin inflows could jack up the odds of a Bitcoin reduction or correction. So of course, they're gonna say, you know what, we're gonna stop buying so much and let's just cool off a little bit because it's just going a little bit too fast. We got a lot of our friends and institutions who really want to get in this game and we can't really pump the price up. I mean, look, Jeffery's over here is waiting for a dump and we got to give it to him. I'm just kidding. I don't know if that's really happening, but it sounds good when I say things like that. It just adds the mystery. Who knows they're doing that over something else going on, but it is a little bit odd, especially when you got New York based Grayscale is owned by Digital Currency Group, the parent company of CoinDesk, which is where this article is coming from. But just to be sure, I went over there and just took a look and I did, I filled out a form and it's true. Grayscale Bitcoin Trust is unavailable. Bitcoin Cash unavailable, a theory on that classic Grayscale Ryzen Trust. You can, but look at that, our good old XRP, no problem. You can get in there, no problem. Stellalum and Zcash, absolutely. Everything else, sorry, Charlie. We've got nothing for you. It's just one of those weird things. Let me know what you think in the comment section. I just find it to be odd timing. That's all I'll say. Lastly, Michael Saylor from Michael's Strategy. This guy's everywhere. I think this guy really is the new Bitcoin Jesus. He really is trying to convert as many people as he possibly can. Everybody has heard the whole thing with Elon Musk and him trying to convince him. Who knows, Elon Musk is Elon. I don't know what's gonna happen. I didn't really wanna cover it because everybody else was talking about it, so who cares? So if he does, that's great. If Tesla starts to buy Bitcoin, fantastic. It'll be a huge catalyst, but who knows? But this is the story. Michael Saylor says, hey, we did a funding round. We build up a lot of capital and were able to purchase, finally, almost 30,000 Bitcoins for 650 million at an average price of 21.9, which means is that they were paying a little bit more, a little bit less, obviously, but they were still buying Bitcoin. And people would ask me, they'd go, well, are you still gonna dollar cost average? Cause I sold a little bit of Bitcoin. Yes, I'm still gonna dollar cost average in. I'm still gonna dollar cost average in. I had a video about this, about when I will actually stop. The magic number for me is 30K. And I explained exactly why that 30K is. You can watch that video or go over to dandiejustcrypto.com, look in module three investing. It's the last video that I have placed right there. Very simple, and I laid all the numbers. But I think it's interesting that he's still doing it. He's still gonna be buying. I think Sailor's gonna be buying for a long time. And what's fascinating about MicroStrategy is they've said, look, we're not selling. We're gonna keep this on the books for a hundred years. Now, that's a long time, let's see if he does it. But so far, he's been pretty much true to his word. So this, by doing this, and these companies doing and buying Bitcoin from the Treasury, it doesn't fluctuate the market so much and it keeps it a little bit stagnant or a little bit more stable. Now, I will remind you of one thing. They are not buying Ethereum that much. They are not buying XRP. They're not buying Bitcoin Cash. They're not buying Cardano. They're not buying altcoins. They're just getting into Bitcoin right now. Maybe way behind the scenes, perhaps, I have no idea. But at least publicly, this is what it is. So I believe Bitcoin will go on a rise but not as meteorically as before. And it certainly won't crash down because these guys are here. I think it'll be a little slower like we just talked about. Alt's, there's still a season for that. People will still flow into it. But I think Bitcoin is a lot of the institutional investors and the alt's a bunch of retail. So catch it while it's hot. And that's it for today. So as a quick reminder, if you would like to win that Market Rebellion free one-year membership, just put in Market Rebellion in the comments below. Also, I believe that with Market Rebellion and trade the chain together, it's like an unbeatable combo. Market Rebellion is all about TA. Trade the chain is all about SA. Technical analysis with Market Rebellion and sentiment analysis with trade the chain. Just this week, they had a great call, GRT, they made it up to 211%. And these notifications that they send you are right on your cell phone. So it's super simple. All you do is look at your phone and go, wow, this one got listed. Let me take a look at that real quick. You get into it. It was at 18 cents, December 18th at 5.19 a.m. Eastern time, went up to 56 cents in three hours. If my math is correct, from 5 a.m. to 8 a.m., that's amazing. And that's not just the only one. They've had many a call like that and it's all on this platform that they've built that crawls throughout all these blog posts, has one of only four of the cryptocurrency companies that has a direct API in Twitter and they take billions and billions of tweets and show you exactly what's going to happen as far as listings, partnerships, hacks, all the good stuff, all the bad stuff so you can make these types of trades. So again, Market Rebellion and TTC or Trade the Chain, I think it's an unbeatable combination. If you wanna look at the Trade the Chain, just look in the description below. There's a link to check it out and that is all. So thanks for sticking with me. I appreciate it. If you like these types of videos, there's gonna be two more that's gonna pop up on your left and right. I'll let YouTube do its magic and that is all for today. So thanks again, really appreciate it and I'll see you on the next one.


Ice cold beer this electro mechanical game that we'll talk about that in a separate show sometime But it was a you got to get this little ball bearing past It's like labyrinth, but you're moving this bar instead of moving the labyrinth. Yeah, it was it was pretty tricky Pete I think was rocking that he got to four or five holes I got to three on the internet you can see someone beat the whole daddy three holes It's the best I could do yeah, but they had a lot of Japanese arcade cabinets, which was awesome, which are really nice and it makes you know You see the thing I really I never really realized about you know I knew it, but I didn't know it was that you know They're you sit at them because they're meant for you instead of standing you sit And it was just so comfortable because they were exactly the right height I guess they're supposed to be the right height for Japanese people were small, but they were not that much bigger Yeah, it was the right height for me and sitting at them was just so comfortable like that We played the Tetris one and the sticks and buttons on so nice Japanese arcade cabinets because I haven't had a lot of experience with Them are way just higher quality really anything I've ever seen it really makes me wonder though because the sticks and buttons on them Are so nice, and but supposedly the Street Fighter sticks we have are the same buttons and sticks But that's not quite the same, but I think those are worn in yeah I gotta I gotta wear in my stick to make it nice like this sit there and play. I don't know rip your tapper for I gotta play something but man it like we were playing some SNK capcom all those kinds of games I normally would never bother with at a convention and yet playing it on the Japanese arcade cabinet. I Actually really like those games now.  I could spend my whole con and our machines They had everything the DDR machine had old school machines They had you know, they had those game the all kinds of everything the only thing they didn't have were the like 60s 70s electromechanical stuff like the Museum is cold beer as cold beer is a relatively recent game. Yeah, it's not like pinballs. Yeah pinball games are old They didn't have like sub hunter. No one thing they did have was this challenge area, right?  Did you beat one? How many did I beat one? Yeah You could have beaten two if you would have done the one I did so the way the challenge thing works I think you can download the challenges. I think I'm not sure if not Let's ask Meg festival give them to us. Yeah, but anyway You get the challenges and it's a little menu and you can choose normal hard Unfair there's different very well put together and you're like all right. I want to play NES unfair challenges It's like all right beat this by on a commando level under this time without dying with no health whatever or Like crazy. What was it beat one of the airships at the end of Mario 3 with a hammer suit without losing the hammer suit Yeah, they were all really really hard and many of them I could have beaten given enough time I could have done it. I just didn't want to know I mean like I could go and do it now But it would take me half a day to practice and get it just because the point of this I don't think is can I practice all day and do it the point is all right Who's got the biggest Nintendo balls right down right now beat that level by a commando I don't know if they put it online though You might be able to practice before the con and then you just have to perform at the con to score But then it's more of a performance art Yeah, but anyway, the thing is you you load up you choose a selection you push the load save state button and you play It starts you right at the challenge Yeah, perfect and there's people watching the whole time So if you beat a challenge you say did I beat it and they say yep and they mark your badge number down Hello packs. This is our badge number idea. It's just this is like the most meager use of the badge number Right, but also packs as we've learned magfest printed the same kind of badges you print and they had individual serial numbers on each one Yeah, it can't be that expensive our code won't cost any more than that because you know, it's like hey We got to do it. Yeah.  Anyway, the challenge that I beat I beat the capture Carmen San Diego They start you in the final took you two tries. No, it didn't I Missed a lot of questions. I recall. No, I only missed one only one only missed one thing and then I corrected it immediately I don't know They gave me that they mark For the record I beat they got capture Carmen San Diego It took me a lot of tries to beat by on a command because I'm good I'm buying a command is my game. I figured all right. I'll do the buy on a commando challenge Scott did do the mega man challenge mega man two challenges It was like okay beat the big tank with bubble only and I you know I got it like halfway and I was like man if I sat here for two more hours. I could have this the worst I'm not gonna waste two hours of my convention It was what beat heatman's level without dying with no power-ups Including heatman with no alternate weapons See not only you had to do basically what it comes down to is you have to do all the jumps in the middle without using the To rocket I think I could have done that I could have done that with enough tries But then on the same try because you can't die right on that same try you also have to beat heatman which means You have to make the jumps don't lose any of your health Or lose barely any health and beat heatman heatman without a weapon without with a pee I can't beat hardly any robot masters with it with the pee I can be like two or three robot masters with the pee but still I can be quick man I can be I can be a quick man airman flash man or Quick man airman flash and metal man I could be any of those four with just the gotta be metal man She's metal man first you don't have to you should it's actually airman is considered the first whatever metal man is advanced first Anyway, but yeah I could be any of those with just the pee probably without dying in a reasonable amount of time But heatman that would have taken quite a few so the one I beat was I sat there And I tried to beat the the dark level in my on a commando not just with no weapons or anything without dying But without any leveling up I cheated I sat there and leveled up in the level. Yeah There was actually one that I almost kind of did which is the Kirby one which was Kirby's adventure Beat the mini boss with the ball. Yeah, that was sad.  They're like, all right now beat the level Yeah, it's like you have to beat the all it's it's the mini boss level where you fight all the mini bosses And I was like I beat one of the mini bosses with the ball But you had to beat all the mini bosses with the ball and you have to have the ball at the end But what the gist of this is that it was an awesome thing and other cons should take this model I mean packs and a lot of cons have the oh, here's the tournament at a concert kind of we ran like rampart tournament Just out of nowhere. They just had this kind of constantly going super hardcore super old-school skill based tournament Yeah, 24-7 skill based is the important part of that That was kind of the culture of magfests magfests is really a more skill based con like the Omegathon is very much random until the end to a large degree even at the end and And the gaming culture people kind of they play games, but they're not really playing to win Magfests everyone's sitting down and playing to win the goddamn game. That's right It was all it was mostly concentrating on skill games and hard games right fighting games There were a lot of fighting games, you know, they had the console FPS's which are games of low skill, but they're games of skill Separate discussion for another time and old school, you know donkey Kong and all this anyway So video games at magfest is like, you know, very important and very good very very good So except for the beo the only things we like our con was basically tabletop We spent almost the entire con short of running all the panels We did sitting in tabletop playing games with our friends and with strangers. Mm-hmm a lot of jungle speed We played jungle speed the most I think the reason we played it the most is because you know We got people hooked on it right mostly our friends were hooked on it Yeah, they'd never played it before and we had the I had the brand new expansion Which really amped up the difficulty and it's an asshole right and then on top of that It's a game that you could just play you just whip it out and play it very quickly Unlike say, you know a curricula which I brought we didn't play it because a curricula has a bunch of set up time and rules teaching Where's jungle speed? We just like all right. We just play it. It's easy to start. It's easy to go Yep, I'm sad. We only played modern art once towards the end of the convention I feel like if we would have played it early, we would have played it again It's a good game, but we ran that big bonanza game that was really rockin That was a really good bonanza game Bonanza is such a good whip-out at a con game because there's this weird We praise the culture of magfest so much But again as I keep saying our mega tricks was brand new at this con People didn't have the German style board games rockin. They didn't have any stuff like ready to go They weren't there wasn't a culture of like people are playing a game. Hey, I'll join you So we'd ask people like we like we need one more. Hey, you want to play jungle speed people were afraid It was weird. I we were playing banana grams at one point.     We're like was it awesome.    There was up in his private room party. Really? Well public room party there apparently that was a lot of people were saying that was like the big fun Table-topping role-playing room party. We just couldn't get up there because the elevators Oh, whatever and I don't know a total random aside because cold guy He gave us at the con in Atari 2600. There was modded have as video out Yeah, we've been it's sitting right there. We've been playing this thing pretty much non-stop since we got back Yeah, it totally it's great to have an Atari that actually works on a 52-inch Modern television. It's like whoa. You don't have to use any adapters and cables or anything weird You just pop in a game you turn it on it works every time Yep blowing guys like that big yeah outlaw is the best. Oh my god But I came to your room the last time on Saturday night It was like 2 30 in the morning and I knocked on the room party door I'm pretty sure you were asleep and I woke you guys up. So I'm sorry. But anyway, we did some panels in magfest We did we were on two panels that were intellectual panels It was actually you know we call everything we do a panel but most of what we do is actually a lecture actual Presentation we did two panels that were actually panels and I was I was apprehensive going in because I was like All right, these people based on their emails seem smart But we don't know them but we don't know them and we don't know their personalities and we don't know their public speaking skills So is this really going to work out? It worked out crazy well when we sit down We're all introducing ourselves for the panel and I realized that we're the only ones without doctorates and like advanced game theory Yeah, and then dr. Hazard hung out with us like the whole con Yeah, dr. Hazard everyone was awesome, but dr. Hazard was kind of the most awesome I think we meshed pretty well. That was fun. Yeah All of us for a bunch of magfest staff because we were talking game theory over dinner and I think we got far too into the math So we turned to the magfest guys.  Two dollar auction in fact two dollar auction anyway Yeah, the panels actually went really well in the second one I was good apprehensive again, even though the first one went well because this guy was moderating Yeah, but he's our friend from Connecticut. Yeah, but I was still I was like all right He's acting a little goofy right now, right? But then as soon as the panel started he was for serious Yeah, he was like up. Well, will the gentleman on the left answer gave us all titles. I was the a captain No, I was the admiral. I don't know what I was. I was hefe or something But yeah, we just you know the panels they both went great even though the attendance was and the attendance was good Okay, I mean for this kind of con This is not a panel going con the people who are going to panels are the hardcore people who care about the thing Or the people who want to go see the celebrity like John St. John does his panel the room's full of course Yes, actually he was doing a whole bunch of stuff at the con bridge anything I got But we had to like a separate segment on John St. John anyway, but we did you know losing should be fun We did this two other panels losing should be fun We actually had to kind of modify it like as we were going because we went to a panel before we did anything else And it was this guy who was talking about like collaborative storytelling in role-playing games table top role playing. Yeah, and we're like All right, let's see what this guy's deal is. Let's see if he knows and he's very articulate He knows stuff. He wasn't like the greatest presenter, but he was pretty good above average for a convention panel Especially convention of that. However the panel the gist of the panel was This is a world where only Dungeons and Dragons exists So be that as that being the reality of the world. How do we make D&D a better role-playing game? He basically did this great panel that is only great if you've never heard of any other role-playing game ever Yeah, it was it was similar to the way in which those we talked about in the forum, right? Biologists who discovered calculus on their own. It's like they didn't know calculus at one point in the panel the guy's like So what if what if now bear with me? suppose You at a little point if a player rolled really well you let them control the narrative Tell me what you found like let them have a little control of the story now I was like really have you played any games invented since you might think this is gonna break your game And it might but if you just start introducing these little to give them a little bit of control We're like we all raise our hands simultaneously Have you ever heard of burning whale inspectors Lacuna da da da we listed like a hundred games and he was like No, I've never really heard any of those. Yeah, I think this is the oh when he opened the panel I felt bad. He was like so I'm you know, I'm a really experienced role-player I've been playing tabletop, you know role-playing games like Dungeons and Dragons
