Good morning cyber traders welcome back on this Thursday the 18th of July. How's everybody doing good to see you Ben? Good to see you Wayne good to see you all Chuck Dave Darryl Grant good to see you All right Casey everybody. All right. Let's get to it. So everybody knows the news It's going on with Netflix Netflix did not meet earnings yesterday. Apparently their subscribers went down a lot That's a hell of a little bit of a correction there But you know what from the Christmas crash from 240 would ever think it'll be a 240 but going right back to 380 This thing is obviously taking a little bit of a correction right here. Looks like we're coming right around here with support We're gonna talk a little bit about that because it is affecting to all the stocks Like IQ and Roku. But before we do that Let's just go over what happened yesterday because I thought yesterday was actually a pretty good day Not a lot of winners Which is okay, you know what it's a it's a great time to learn classes are going on So that's really what matters, but let's just talk about some of the stocks that did make some moves I want to start off talking off with talking with this about the CRC this was a short all day and The afternoon it pulled it and the afternoon it pulled the top It was on the top of the list and you could see how the stock right here Just like the trend is your friend don't want to buck that trend You can see how that stock just literally just came right that back down It was a nice afternoon trade too because around that 230 time frame at 1650 you could see it went all the way down to 1560 you know it's a nice little buck move right there You know and not only that but you could see it was contesting some support levels back in the Christmas crash But what a great trade love that stock got some good volume a lot of you guys did well on it Give yourself a round of applause Gold minings did well to all the DJ Nug J and UG All those did pretty well and then they'll get those things just kind of really been taken off lately. I mean look at this stock since Since since June it literally have a double. I mean, where's it? Where's Great grant. What's going on with gold buddy? It looks like all these ETFs these miners are moving all bullish, right? Nugget another one right there. You guys killed it on that one 14 to 32 Great movers the only thing about the ETFs You just got to keep in mind you got to be at least a minimum of a level-to-trader because these ETFs are pretty volatile Okay, and you know with that you kind of lose the benefit of following the level three and the level four It kind of makes a little bit difficult to follow that kind of stuff But overall that those did pretty well and the big one I just want to finish off this last one before we go to the watch list is the GS the GHSS That was great early this morning. That one just out of the gate. Boom buck forty three dollars You're done a 1030 game over that literally was probably the biggest winner of them all so overall It wasn't a bad day not a lot Not a lot, but but few how's your goal doing fouls though? Bill's asking, you know what? Unfortunately, I'm losing money still. I was one of those suckers who boarded at 1600 you know, I actually bought the the the gold itself and I wrote all the way to about 1900 because a couple of my big gold friends told me things gonna go to like four to six thousand so You know, I've been holding it ever since so you got to remember the problem with gold bill is that when you buy gold itself You know this, you know The cheapest you can get is a 40 a $40 spread There's an actually really really big spread in gold that people pride on We don't think about it when you talk about spot They're like, yeah, okay. I want to buy gold. Yeah, but you got a $40 spread there and when you think about it some people don't realize the the the What that actually means other than when you guys are here and you see what how important it is when we talk about in phase one You know because remember you're in class right now And one of the biggest things that we teach the most important thing is I always say this all the time It's not us teaching you how to make money It's teaching you to stop losing it and some people just don't realize to buy something to spread It could be so big that just like an options huge spread You know, they're already in a hole just to break even and it makes things very very difficult That's why the spread is the most expensive part of the trade It's not the ticket charge where people look at the opposite, you know, I always say this all the time I back when I started 20 years ago. I used to pay $25 a ticket With a quarter with an eighth spread we did fractions back then Fractions and you had to guarantee a thousand shares and you get people make a big deal that You know paying five dollars a ticket and they still can't make money Well, guess what that was like that was the least of our problems. It was this spread that made things very expensive So think about as soon as we bought a stock back 25 years ago before they went to front went to decimals We were already down a hundred and twenty five dollars Plus a twenty five dollar ticket and we didn't even sell the stock So we had to make a hundred and fifty dollars just to break even on per ticket If you remember back then and we and we made money back then. Yeah Yeah, those are the good old days All right, and you know what can the funny part is the hardest thing to teach back then when I was teaching new traders is math, you know It's it's amazing that you know when you deal with fractions You know that was probably one of the hardest things to teach But anyway, let's get back to the watch list because there's a couple of good stocks I want to talk about first of all talk about Netflix the Netflix missed earnings and the things all over the place they didn't get as many subscribers as they liked and Obviously, we're not trading Netflix because not because You can't make money with it. Who the hell wants to risk $300, but you know what you can trade that's following with it IQ this is the the Netflix copy of China It's so funny. China's a copies every major company we have they copy Starbucks with LK And they copied IQ with with Netflix, but anyway, we made a lot of money on the stock when we went public too If you guys remember we did pretty well with this stock But anyway, this stock is obviously taken a hit because of that and also Roku R. Okay you Also, obviously not this is a little bit out of our price range, too I mean some of you could probably trade it some of you level four and five traders But probably the IQ probably better up in your league. All right CODX let's start going through some something a little bit more affordable You can see this one is gapped up pretty nicely this morning. It's got a nice little flag on it four million shares trade the stock some of you remember we traded it I think was in January when the stock gapped up and went from a dollar to about almost four dollars and four hundred percent So we know the stock can move So let's keep an eye on me fix my time frame over here Minutes there we go All right, that one looks like it's pretty good OTLK is also for moving pretty nicely this morning And you know, listen, it's not a lot going on this morning But one thing I do like is that some of these stocks are training a lot of mark a lot of volume in pre-market You got this one OTLK. You got a 24,000 share buyer that's sitting here at 224 ready So we know we're at pretty big support levels The stock took a big hit you could see it from ten all the way down to about a dollar some of you remember We did trade the stock. We know the stock can move Okay, we traded this back in June when the stock took off It went from a dollar to about four dollars and it was good for about three days So go back to your journals. Look how you trade it. Check your notes. If there's anything could remind you that how the the the The trend was or the personality of how the stock traded knowing what level it was remember The big thing is I know what you're covering this right now in class is your journals is how to take very good notes Because I always tell you this you're gonna trade these stocks again.  It's very important.  I know it's up with this one I kind of was a little excited about this one, but she's starting to break lower lows I'm starting to see some orders on a bid getting hit. I might scratch this one out It's only up 10% but she was up a lot more. She was up at 2 30 this morning Not really being cooperative, but I thought maybe I don't know we'll put this as maybe Let me see a phase two. Let's let's call it If the other ones don't work out and they will come back to this one But you never know when they open up. We'll put it on the watch list I like the volume if you're a level one trader, this might be up your alley stocks of 11% Cheap little stock good spread great volume. So I know we have some beginners that still You know still trying to learn a little bit.  Let's see what happens here but overall pre-market it's it's doing nothing so that might die and What do we else we got here? Oh, I wanted to talk about this NBRX trade Now for some of you remember the stock This is also gonna be one of the sleepers on the watch list because you remember this back in April This stock went from a dollar to three dollars. We know the stock can move. It's got a it's got some decent volume I've seen these things come out of nowhere and they pop So I just want to put on the radar just keep an eye on it because the stock was one of those nice Really good short squeeze that we traded and last but not least XBIO The stock is getting decimated you saw it would happen the last couple of days So I'm just want to throw this on a watch list. You might might get a bottom fish But as we know biosciences these stocks usually don't come back I always liked think that sometimes the people will own it yesterday. They find out this morning They got destroyed they might average down might cause a little volatility in it. I don't know we'll just throw it as as a throw that in the Part two, you know phase two if one doesn't work out maybe we'll consider that but other than that I mean listen, it's not a big list. It's not great You know shockingly for a Thursday, but what is what it is? All right, but we always find new ones that do pop up when the market opens up. All right guys anything I'm missing I did not call out Anybody else find anything? It got pretty much does it. Yeah, I think you guys found the same thing. I found right, okay? So all right so guys before we go just remember big day today We got open house that we do every Thursday at 12 o'clock. So yeah, you know go out there and let your friends know tweet it Facebook it, you know email anybody get them in there Let them see what we do the open house is gonna start today at 12 o'clock And then don't forget see two classes of phase two is continuing Greatest talk and the big big event my old friend Tom Sosnoff from tasty works the founder of thinkorswim is going to be coming on on Tuesday July 30th He's gonna talk about his platform.

Educating investors the following is a presentation of TFNN Trade what you see With Larry Pezzavento Call now toll free at 1-877-927-6648 or internationally at<PHONE_NUMBER> Now Larry Pezzavento Okay, looking good Billy Ray feeling good Lewis. We're gonna go down history books a little bit We got a couple of really cool photos to share with us from our friends down there in Longboat Key, Florida The first one is a 1952 Buick as you can see here the Riviera the first of that series and And you can see the matching camper that you got with it This goes back a long time folks, but since we're showing campers and stuff I wanted to show you one of my one of my all-time favorites I'll get it up here to let you see it and this is a big anniversary data course as we all know We'll get this up here. You'll see here. This is the 1959 Cadillac Coupe de Ville and you'll see here that is all pink and guess Wasn't Elvis's car. He had a pink Cadillac but it wasn't this one. He had a convertible But they did have matching campers that usually they were made by Shasta or Windmill or somebody else. I can't remember but there's a whole bunch of those that were made during that time And with the price of used automobiles the way they are right now Holy moly guacamole Where they're going to get to now This is the day that Elvis passed away on August the 16th of 1977 one of the scariest days of my life It I had just finished my first year to the day of working for Drexel Burnham Lambert And I was on my way home to take the kids swimming like I always did and by golly I got to the to the garage and the garage was open which was very unusual and there was my little daughter My little nine-year-old daughter sitting there with tears in her eyes crying your eyes out and I pulled up and She says oh daddy. She says you're going to be so sad someone has died And I said where is your sister? She says it's not Larry and dad. She says Elvis has died And I'll tell you for the first time even though I was a big fan of Elvis I was really relieved I I called Julie this morning to remind her about that she doesn't remember it But that's that's what happened on that day in 1977 it was also a very important day for me in 19 excuse me let's get back to that time in 1986 that was the day that I got a letter from my aunt from Louisa's restaurant in Tarot, Indiana it was a note from dr. Ruth Miller and I I wish I had the letter but I lost it over a period of years and basically she had I she said I know you like Fibonacci numbers but the November soybeans are going to go off the board and I think the price was around $5.96 so I I put that on my machine and I because I was basically doing I just finished my work at commodity corporation and I was doing legal expert Witnessing with Eddie Horowitz and so I was quite busy at that but about a month later I noticed that it was right at that price that it went off the board and so I called Ruth I didn't know Ruth very well at all and only met her a few times she was a Professor there and Indiana and her husband John and her his son Terry they I did all the speculating for them when I was at Drexel I mean I did we did a lot of soybeans and stuff during those years from 76 282 we made a lot of money and so she knew who I was of course and of course the family and stuff but she I called her up and she said look I know you like Fibonacci says but I this stuff is all related to astrology and why don't you come down to Sarasota she said that we're going to be going down here around the first of September and maybe why don't you come down and spend the month or two and I'll teach you some of this stuff and I said well I can't really come then but maybe later on and so it happened to be right after Halloween that I went down to Sarasota not too far from Longboat Key and I was going to spend two weeks and I end up spending two months I spent all through October all through November and I was back in Avila Beach in the I believe I got back on rather 12th of December and I was ready to publish a book I mean we literally I'm not kidding you folks she was she was what she was 15 years older than me and yet we worked I'm not kidding you we worked 18 to 20 hours a day solid for two months it was so exciting to see some of this stuff happen now the reason why I'm bringing this to your attention is is that we had a question from someone this morning last night about the Bradley model you know why don't I use the Bradley model well folks when I first started using the Bradley model I got it from Dr. Miller and it was really really exciting because it was really showing you know how the markets moved and it was spectacular actually in fact I started my my whole book or my whole newsletter service Astro Cycles the Trader's Viewpoint on that Bradley model because I mean it was really good and I'm and I was up in the top 10 or higher in all of the rating services and so I you know you could really tell that it's working the problem is folks along the way and remember I'm just an old cowboy I'm like old curly I know how to do one thing and that's AV equals CD and how to control risk after that you know you're gonna have to write write a new letter I know I've got an IQ I know I've told you about my IQ being 180 but remember I had to take it three times I got at 60 each time to get to that 180 level so it takes a while to you know simulate all this stuff for me I was fortunate enough to have Jim 20 men you know at my side this whole way he's been my oldest friend since 1965 and when we met at at the brokerage firm there in Los Angeles run by Roy Long Street and what we were trying to do was to through the years you know he worked with me at Drexel because it's the first person I hired and you know it was really turned out to be really good and we're still friends in the state but Jim's a mathematician and his whole thing is about numbers and astrology so he was a natural person to do this let me just show you that the Bradley book basically was a 47 page book written in 1946 by little Bradley okay and basically what he did he said I'll just show you what it looks like it said these planets line up and I'm going to give you my two cents worth here I'll probably botch it a little bit but I got a lot of this information from Shane Smollion this morning but this is what he was looking at he was watching these planets clustering up now this happened to be March the 5th of 19 excuse me 2009 that was March the 5th of 2009 you can see all the planets are lined up in one area which we thought that was going to be something really big well at that time I was doing a lose dollar here for TFNN and I wrote the letter and the thing that I put on the letter and you know it doesn't work like this all the time folks but boy when it does pay attention to it because there's something to it you'll see that you have this beautiful pattern you can see the three drive to a bottom pattern forming here we've got the Dow setting right there folks at right around 6 6 7 I believe that's where the Dow was at that time and basically from there we went a great deal higher what I said in the letter that day this red line is the Bradley model okay and the rest of it is the patterns that we're looking at but I said this will be the largest short covering rally we've had since 1938 and that was a big one and of course we went from here and above I think we went to near 40,000 in this thing so let's take a little break we'll be right back in a time of booming inflation we are purchasing powers eroded there's no better place to protect your harder and money than ain't gold this the gold's flagship asset is the monk cod gold project in the northern territory of Australia

Donald P. Bradley and I think he sold maybe 20 books they were $2 a piece as a paperback and Dr. Rue Miller had it and so we put it together Jim did all the programming later on, Ensign did all the programming but we went back and checked it's very very good the differences folks I have some guests on here that are really really smart with this stuff I mean is right up there at the top of the list Norm Winsky excuse me, Psycho's research over there in Austria is awfully good, Tim Bost is awfully good and they use this and they know far more than I do about it what I do is I know patterns pretty well and that's what I rely on folks I'm going to be doing that in just a moment here but I just wanted to show you how this stuff all worked out so notice here we're setting right over a major Bradley day right now starting tomorrow on the 17th so I think that's keep an eye on that because we're in some really really good areas here now I came into this market Sunday night looking to be bearish but boy folks once it started up I said oh there is absolutely no way you can be bearish I'll show you that in just a moment because it's continued to do exactly what it did yesterday is doing the same thing today but I did want to cover this about the Bradley model and that's really all I wanted to cover but it does work doesn't work all the time but guess what boys and girls nothing works all the time and that's the thing you've got to really believe that we're talking about here now let's just talk a little bit yesterday we talked about the Dow Jones and how bullish it was and everything I wanted to show you what's happened here after we looked at this market yesterday you'll get a pretty good idea of why the market looks a dog on bullish today I mean it's pretty silly to be even thinking about being bearish when the market won't back off at all now here's the E-mini S&P you know there's that level we were looking at up there at 42.99 a high was about 43.02 look where we came to this morning folks we went right down to a 3.82 now we went a tiny bit below this a little bit later making a new low by about 4 or 5 points and then of course we've continued to go much higher getting up to around 43.17 that's basically telling you that this market look how long it took to even make a 3.82 retracement folks there's nothing bearish about that I mean you don't have to be a rocket scientist to try to see that that's what's happening right what you're doing with pattern recognition is you're trying to find these patterns and how they fit together and telling you whether you think it's bullish or bearish now if you see a 3 drive pattern or a 135 pattern something like that yeah totally different but this is not showing anything like that this is just a really nice A, B, C, D coming down at a 3.82 retracement and then rallying another 22 points that's really what it's doing if you'll remember yesterday one of our listeners asked a question about the natural gas and let's just get we'll get natural gas up here because I think this is a good way to describe the same thing that we're seeing here in the E-mini S&P we saw the same thing in natural gas we saw the same thing in crude oil but the crude oil one was upside down let's get up here and take a look at it here here is the natural gas on the daily basis if you'll remember we talked about the fact that the previous days low was setting right there at a 3.82 retracement and then the market goes up and makes new highs so what do you think happened today folks what happened yesterday maybe it's going to happen today but you ought to try to expect it because it'll give you a pretty good indication that yeah what happened yesterday it's going to happen again today because you know why these markets repeat and repeat and repeat until they don't repeat and that's what your job is as a pattern recognition swing trader is when they stop repeating then you have something to look at but you can see here again right at your exact 3.82 retracement and it's a perfect ABCD ABCD right at 3.82 and where does it rally another $4,000 up in the natural gas I mean you're talking something that's got a margin of like $3,800 this is big time money folks so you know watch it it's not an easy one but by golly it's got some great patterns in there that are certainly predictable within limits and that's really what we're trying to do is to get within limits so let's get back to the one on the crude oil because crude oil was one we focused on last night and the reason why we did that I'll bring it up here so you can see it this was done long before these prices ever hit these levels folks this was just get up here one second here this was done this morning and I did these last night up to this level you can see here we're making a beautiful ABCD pattern tiny bit above the 3.82 goes above the 3.82 by about 300 bucks and then it starts down and it's going down down down down all day long we're now folks believe it or not we're $4,000 under that level in the crude oil let's get it up here because we've just made new lows here just a little while ago and I want to spend a moment about that too because each time the last two times that we've been down to this level of $8,700 and if you remember that was the 61% retracement on the long-term weekly and from there we went from $8,700 folks we rallied all the way up we rallied $10 a barrel and you can see where we are right now now we've just made new lows now we've made new lows before the other two times and we've rallied $4,500-$6,000 so what I'm doing is see if I can find a small pattern on this little tiny pattern that I'm looking at this half hour to 15 minute chart to see if there's a place a little three drive or something that might give me a place to enter where I don't have to risk an arm and a leg and this one arm and there's two and I don't want to risk any more than that so I'm talking a risk of about $400 I have not seen anything like that as of yet it just keeps cascading down if you'll remember from the newsletter we said watch for a 382 retracement because if we break below the $8,700 the ABCD structure on this folks hold on to your hat no it's not $84 no it's not $85 no it's not $79 a barrel for crude oil and I don't think the folks over there in Riyadh and Mecca are going to like it to see their prices drop another 15 or 20% and here they are being so kind as to increase production now to help us out hello operator does anybody believe that stuff and there must be a few people out there that believe it anyway that's what we're watching here in the crude oil option but also you've got to keep in mind two other things folks one is heating oil and the second one is gasoline both of those are still substantially above they're still at least the 61% retracement of these things so we've got a chance to maybe make a bottom down in here but right now it's not giving us any sign at all and all I'm doing is trying to find a place to say okay this is a pattern that I believe in maybe it's going to work maybe it's not but I know it's going to work and it's not going to work and if it pays me it's going to pay me more than I'm going to risk and that's what trading is all about I don't need a Bradley book I don't need to read an astrology book and believe me folks I've been afraid of astrology ever since I started doing it is there a fan yes there is a fan nearby very good I can't turn it off we lost air conditioning yesterday our air conditioning is broken we're waiting

not show up in the charts and so I'm not able to do that so that's it okay by the way it's only 90 degrees here today so it's only going to be as high as about 99 and so it's not it's warm but remember they didn't have air conditioning until the last hundred years so you can imagine how things were many many years ago and I do have a chart talking a little bit about the 135 pattern but nothing like the PowerPoint that I wanted to share with you so oh dear now what's happened now I've lost the darn I lost the cord I lost discord again oh what's wrong what's wrong what's wrong okay give me one second here folks to try to get this up here I don't know why it's not working but okay here's where we are let's hopefully we'll get this up and working there we go hopefully we'll get knocked out of the room alright there we go alright now this is the Dow Jones industrial average folks you're seeing the ABCD pattern on the downside you remember we talked about that back on June the 18th when we had that major low down there it's when the whole world was bearish and as a matter of fact speaking of bearish I see Jamie Dimon came out today reiterating the fact that there is a financial hurricane coming and it's probably going to be worse than a recession well there's only thing one worse than a recession folks and you know what the recession is is when your neighbors out of work if you're out of work it's a depression so anyway you can see this is the ABCD pattern I have let's try it again Larry I have drawn the trend line from AC to down to where we are up to where we are now you'll see we're within a heartbeat now of the 78% retracement of the whole move down folks now if you believe ABCD to the downside down there at that 32,000 change and now we're several thousand points higher right okay well we're right up there at 78% level now I pointed this out because we've had since Sunday night the market would not back off at all it backed off 40 handles and came right back I mean right back to the high and the 40 handles where was it exactly 382 and that was in the middle of the night by the time you guys got up here in the morning on Monday morning this thing had already started to rally and we've started to rally the Dow Jones has been the leader now we've broken through this line I don't I don't know if it's a valid trend line or not it probably is because this happened to be a 61% retracement at point C but we are now coming up to a major resistance at 34,000 in the Dow Jones E-mini so watch that number very very closely we're I think we'll probably hit it some time today 32,008 I think is the exact number that's going to be very close to the 43- 45 in the E-mini S&P that we've mentioned before because we went just like in the S&P just like in the Dow Jones the same thing happened you know with the S&P we went through those numbers you know like they didn't exist and folks when that happens you know you can't you know you can't stand in front of it let's just bring this one up here on the E-mini S&P because you're going to see how close it is this was the one that was done over the weekend because all I was doing was showing you the relationships that we're looking with the Dow we're looking at the S&P and you can see the 78% level 61% retracement it's going to be 61% on the S&P 78% retracement on the Dow Jones so that should be happening when well let me see we got a Bradley model market due to tomorrow okay now I believe in those dates because I've seen them for the last 40 years and if I didn't believe them I wouldn't I mean if you could have seen this thing how it operated between 1989 and 1995 it was six years where it was just absolutely perfect I mean I was on so many news programs and you know panels and stuff showing you what that model was and that all I was doing was just following what the model did and it was just spectacular during those years then for a period of time it was off and on you know back to the old 50-60% level lately it's back in that area of maybe 60-65% but the key to remember is when you got a Bradley date and you got prices coming together at the same time that's when you want to pay attention to it I thought it was going to be last Wednesday or Thursday never happened kept going higher can't stand in front of that one find a new Toyota ride you know that's basically it I couldn't believe it today because one of my friends over in California Michael Weintraub he bought a Ram truck a used one folks a used truck you know a big Ram 1500 with all the bells and whistles you know it was a used one he sold it for over $100,000 and he had people waiting in line to buy it the original cost on the sticker it was a year old sticker price was $87,000 he sold it for $13,000 more than the original sticker price wing one year old with $12,000 miles you think that used car markets going nuts it looks like pork bellies did during the 60s for heaven's sakes anyway getting back to this we're going to find out whether this is going to work or not fortunately we're going to be having a lot of time here to spend the rest of today and then again tomorrow and we'll have our guests hopefully on Thursday and Friday but we'll be able to watch this unfold but the numbers we're looking at are 34,000 in the Dow Jones E-mini and the number in the S&P is 4335 so watch 4335 that's the 50% level we're only about 17 handles away from that so we're very very close now that doesn't mean you can sure you can do it right you can do the trade right there if you like or if you wanted to be cautious wait until the market backs off and sell the first 382 retracement for the first ABC countertrend that's another way to do it there's a lot of things with pattern recognition that you can do and I wish I was able to bring them all up here to show you what they're all about but I will be doing this PowerPoint presentation on the next time I do a full day trading session which will be sometime in probably late September that will be my last one for the year and the last one we did was very successful and hopefully that was in May and we're going to be doing another one here and I'm going to be doing some traveling in October, November we're going to be going over there to do some stuff with David Paul and Tom Hougard in Denmark and also in London and also probably in Dubai but Dubai is still up in the air we don't know for sure whether that's going to be correct or not someone is asking a question to re-show the picture of the Dow Jones back in November the excuse me March the 5th of 2009 I'll bring this up here and show you what it was doing all I was doing here folks was showing the Bradley model that's in red and then the prices were you can see the prices are on the bar charts and we were looking at that you can see the ABCD right down there and we were just about ready to go to the upside I believe the Dow Jones I don't remember I know the S&P was right around that right around the devil's number right around 666 I don't know if I can see this one in the I bet I can just a second yeah the Dow was trading right at 6700 is where it was and from 6700 of course we rallied a tiny bit from there I really believed that it was going to be the biggest rally since 1938 and it little surpassed that by two stretches to the imagination

distributor four side fund services LLC traded on the NYSE American and TSX under the symbol VGZ okay folks I've been fortunate enough to Mr. BV down there in Texas send us a nice little chart of the E-mini S&P showing you what we were talking about just a moment ago going back a few few extra days but you can see the relationships that you're looking at here folks those little dotted lines that you see where the lows are being made those are 3A2s and that's why we've not been very very shnow we're going to be watching this thing really closely because we're up against some really strong numbers here that doesn't mean they're going to stop we'll have to wait and see remember folks we had Jamie Diamond the number one bank in the country you know JP Morgan came on the tube today I was listening to him and he said boy this is a get ready for a financial hurricane possibly even worse than a recession is what the president the CEO of the largest bank in the United I think it's a largest bank yeah it is a largest bank in the United States is giving a warning like that nobody ever does anything like that the last time that happened was back in 1929 when what was his name that what was the guy's name starts with a B not Barron's oh dear Roger Babson Roger Babson came out in July of 29 warning everybody about the hurricane that was coming and they laughed at him all during July all during August part of the first three days of September after that they stopped laughing at him darling and he was right that was something in the market went from 1929 we went from 389 in the Dow Jones industrial average to July the got it where are you basil is either the 5th or the 8th I think it's the 8th of July of 1932 I believe we get $41 in the Dow Jones and 16 of the 30 stocks with tapioca and tapioca in our business means goodbye so and not only do you realize folks all during that time you know how important telephones are I mean everybody's got a cell phone and all the other stuff do you know that American telephone went bankrupt three times and that is from the 29s all the way through the rest of the time I mean they they've had a you know a torrid past they've done relatively well now Apple's done a little bit better than that but American telephone had a lot of problems it was called telephone at one time and then American telephone and I forget what it was after AT&T after that I guess so but anyway that's what we're paying attention to here today so let's keep it on that now we're going to take everybody's going to get a little vacation today we're going to go across the pond over there to Germany and we're going to take a look at the German because what is it doing it's forming the same pattern that we're seeing here in the stop and pee in the Nasdaq and the Dow Jones industrial average you can see it's right here got that big ABCD hanging in there and again we've got this key date coming up here possibly tomorrow or Thursday might even go through Friday I don't know but sometime here in the next few days we were very very over bought now so we're ready to see something happen it'll most probably come in you know as a big surprise remember this market has taken very very bad news coming out of China starting on Sunday night you know with their figures for economic expansion were way way off 25% worsened they thought and they had to actually drop interest rates to try to stimulate the business a little bit and that you know even that the market didn't take any of that news I mean just kept on going up so there's nobody paying any attention to it so you shouldn't either you know pay attention to the charts if they're telling you to get ready to go down get ready and see it but right now they're not doing that that's that's my two cents worth but there's where we are now what we're going to do now we're going to get back on the old train and we're going to take it back into guess where boys and girls we're going to go into Kings Cross there in London and get off the tube and we're going to take a look at the footsie now the footsie is mainly international stocks but it does trade somewhat and our good friend Tommy who guard trades it so I want to bring your attention to it you can see here also we're looking at a market that's almost made a new top you can see the the ABCD right here in the middle just like we had on the interday S&P but you know look at this green this green area right here folks it's either got to go blasting to the upside or it's day or two or it's getting ready to roll over so that's what I'm paying attention to right now is to see you know what's happening with that as we get ready to come in now the other thing that you know we have crude oil breaking down really badly we've got even even corn is starting to give up some of its gains folks we mentioned it yesterday you know we stopped right where we should have in corn up there at 640 we've dropped 40 cents in the last couple of days again if you trade corn on a half hour basis you'll see the beautiful 382 here early this morning and then the market just rolled over and just kept going lower and lower and lower and that's a sign that there's a bottom coming somewhere but it might not be for a while so we've got to pay close attention to it now I saved the best for last okay now here is the Euro let's get this up here this is the easiest one to trade this is the one that we based everything in statistics on the floor traders handbook on this but you'll see here look at these retrace where folks that is a downtrend that's a daily chart I mean all you had to do is to get ready to sell some of those rallies and this was not a bad one folks I mean 382 382 382 now we finally last night early this morning we finally reached some support at the 618 we stayed there for 15 minutes right at the 61% retracement we didn't go down we stayed there and so that was a sign that there was some buying coming in at that point so if you wanted to take a nibble at it at that point that was giving you a perfectly good place to do it and remember this is the most actively traded thing in the world more than anything else heck it's probably more than everything else combined well it's not quite that big but it's really big it's a trillion dollar market and so now we've got a possibility here that this could hold at this 112 level but by golly longer term this is still in a downtrend it's not giving us any indication that it has turned the corner this is why it's really hard to be bullish gold because if the Euro is weak the US dollar is strong the US dollar is strong you know gold doesn't really rally very much but stop and think folks this thing has gone straight down and yet gold has rallied $150 you've got to pay attention to that I mean I'm praying that we get a $75 break in gold because I think this is going to be the one that's going to surprise everybody whether this is going to be this financial hurricane that Jamie diamonds talking about or not or cryptocurrency whatever whatever gold will be watching gold really really closely we had a $3 rally in silver right out of the blue and so that's another one you've got to pay attention maybe the game is changing over there and they might you know something happens you know Perkins head up because there's still a lot of gold bulls out there folks I mean I've been one since 1974 well actually 72 but well actually before that is in the 60s with the silver but I think it looks pretty good I really like the I've always been attracted to silver and gold coins because they're so beautiful plus they've held their value over the time frame we're going to have to take a break to pay a few bills here for Tom O'Brien remember I guess they're going to be I believe we're going to have Jim Bartolioni on Friday and Tim Boss on Thursday or that could be reversed I'm trying to still work it out 877 6648 Vista Gold owns and operates the

here to take care of business I posted a chart here of the crude oil and as you can see since we've been on the air here it's been just rolling over rolling over there's no pattern here at all to give you any type of low risk entry when we blow through blew through all the double bottoms and triple bottoms that were here at the 8,700, 8,690 level and we're down almost a dollar from that level so I mean there's just no way you could stand under that but we have another one that's on the watch list and this is what we like to do is to pay attention to some of these because when they work and when they do work they work very very good and here is one that we're waiting to see and that is none other than the old Dow Jones E-mini S&P getting ready to bang into that number that we're looking at right here you'll see there it is at 34,000 009 I believe there as you can see we couldn't make the 382 retracement here in the Dow Jones we made it in the S&P we made it in the NASDAQ we made it in the Russell but we didn't make it in the Dow Jones and now we're dancing with the 1.618 number up here at 34,200 now at this particular point you've got two hours to go in the day the way I would do this I believe in 1.618 numbers so much I would sell it there at 34,002 34,009 ok and then I would not risk more than 250 American dollars 50 handles 50 points not 50 handles 50 points is all I would risk if it's going to work it's not going to get above there it's just going to stay there and in fact as you should wait till see it bounce there and make sure it doesn't go pat you know popping through there by more than 30 or 30 points because then I would tell you maybe it's not working but 1.618 boy you gotta those are the kinds that like Yogi Berra said dance with the girl that took you to the dance see on the flip side tomorrow boys and girls live every day in an attitude of gratitude and make God bless


Hi everyone, and welcome to the CUBE's coverage of AWS Public Sector Summit live in Washington, DC, where it's a face-to-face real event. I'm John Furrier, your host. But virtual events, hybrid events, we're a hybrid event as well. We've got a great, remote interview. We've got a guest here in person, John Sankovic, president of Cloud Solutions at Smartronix, and John Brindon, who's the VP of AWS Managed Services, also known as AMS with Amazon Web Services. John and John, and three John's here. Welcome to the CUBE. Remote, in-person, hybrid. Thanks, John. Great to be on the CUBE, a long-time viewer, and I really appreciate what you do. So, John. It's super, super fun to be here remotely, but feel like I'm right there, so this is awesome. Yeah, I love the hybrid event. It's only going to get better. Next one will be in the metaverse soon, but John, on the line there, I want to ask you with AWS Managed Services, take us through what you guys are doing with Smartronix, because this is an interesting service. You guys are working together. How does that relate at the table for us? Yeah, well, you know, we're really excited about this announcement. We've been working with Smartronix since we launched AMS four and a half years ago. So, we've been able to build up working with them, you know, a huge library of automations and capabilities, and this really just formalizes that in an offer for our joint customers where we can bring the expertise from AWS and Smartronix and offer a full solution that's tightly integrated to help our customers jointly accelerate their cloud adoption as well as their operating model transformation as they start to move to more DevOps motion and they need help. We're there together to provide our expertise and make that simple for them. Well, I appreciate it. We'll call you John B, John S over here, JS, John Sankovich, tell me about Smartronix because you heard what's going on with DevOps 2.0, whole revolutions going on in DevOps. You're starting to see a highly accelerated modern application development environment, which means that the software developers are setting the pace. They're the pace car of the innovation, right? And so other teams like security or IT become blockers, not blockers, a drag, an anchor. So the shift left on security, for instance, is causing a lot of problems on the security team. So all this is going on like right now. So still, the speed is the game, what's your take? Sure, so absolutely. I think that's where this partnership really, really excels. We want customers to focus on their mission, national security, healthcare outcomes. We want them to kind of take the rest off their plate. So when you say some of the, quote unquote, blockers around security, Smartronix has invested heavily in a FedRAMP authorized platform that sits on top of what AWS has done from a FedRAMP. And so right off the bat, speed, agility, we don't want our customers spending time replicating things that we've done at scale and leveraging what AWS has. And so by kind of utilizing this joint offer, all of a sudden a big part of that compliance is taken care of.  I know a little bit about what you guys are doing because you mentioned SRE is very cool but let's take a minute to explain what you guys are doing because you guys are on the cutting edge and solving a lot of problems from infrastructure fools around the DevOps stack. What do you guys do in the cloud services region? Sure, so I think John hit a little bit on it but we look at AMS as best in breed at scale, managing core parts of the AWS infrastructure. What Smartronix does is many times customers have some unique requirements and we take that core kind of powered by AMS and we try and fill in those kind of complementary skill sets and complementary requirements. And so something like the DevOps which is basically making sure that those people developing that software, they have also the ability to manage it and on an ongoing basis kind of run it. We develop all the frameworks and that's part of this offering to enable that. What's the solution John B because I think people have challenged but I wouldn't understand those challenges and then when they go to the external managed service what's involved, you walk us through that because I think that's important. Yeah, sure, it turns out and John nailed this one that moving to the cloud can be a big transformation for many enterprises and government teams, right? They've worked for many years and have an ecosystem in their traditional data center but when they move to the cloud there's a lot of moving pieces and so what we like to focus on is helping them with the undifferentiated aspects of safely and automating cloud operations. So working with Smarttronics allows us to take what we're doing across the infrastructure services around security, around automation, around patching, instance management, container management, all of those are undifferentiated and we lift these tasks. We find that with Smarttronics, meet expertise across the application layer, across customers' unique environments, across FedRAMP moderate, the various government standards and compliances and we think we're able to take a customer from kind of really early stage cloud experience and rapidly deploy, configure and get them into a very stable, scalable posture operationally on the cloud so that they can start to invest in their people, their skills and their differentiated applications on the cloud that really drive the differentiation in their business and not have to worry about best practice configurations and operational runbooks and automations and the latest DevSecOps capabilities that we'll pick up for them while they're training and getting their motions in place. John, as on the Smarttronics side, talk about the difference between scale, okay, which is a big issue with cloud. These customers want to have with AMS, but then you also have some scale, maybe some scale too, but highly compliant environments, regulated industries, for instance. This is the hot areas because scale is unwieldy, but if you don't want to get it, rain it in, it can be chaotic, right? So, and also regulations and compliance is a huge issue. Yeah, what we found is at times, customers look at it and they just get frustrated because it can be kind of intimidating and we as a combined team really have spent a lot of time. We have accelerators to walk customers through that process and a really flexible model. If they feel that they have a lot of domain expertise in it, then we'll just kind of be almost a supporter. Other customers look at it and say, we'd like you to take the entire patch of that compliance and so highly regulated environments, both commercial, DOD, national security, federal civilian agencies, state and local, they're all looking to this and saying, we really want someone that's been through things like the AWS Audited Managed Service Provider, things like their managed security service provider, things like FedRAMP or DOD IL-4 and 5, and I think to be honest, Smartronics has just invested heavily in that with the goal of reducing all that complexity and it's really been taken off and we really appreciate the partnership, specifically with John and the AWS AMS team. All right, so you guys, we're going to gather. What's the ultimate benefit to the customer? I can, I'll give my thing right off the bat. All this innovation coming out of AWS, it's fantastic, but only if you have the ability to take advantage of it. And so thousands of new services being rolled out, we really want customers to be able to take advantage of that and let at times us do what we do best and let them focus on their mission. And I think that's what really AWS is all about and we just feel very fortunate to be an enabler of that. John B, talk about the staffing issues too because one of the problems that we've been reporting and this has come up at every reinvest on the max petition about this as well. He promised last year he was going to train 29 million people. See how that comes out of reinvent when the report card comes back. I was kind of busting his chops a little bit there but he had a smile on his face and I think he's going to hit these numbers. A lot of times, maybe people don't have an SRE, they don't have a DevOps person or they have some staff that they're in transition or transforming, this is a huge factor. What's your take on this? Yeah, you know, that is so important. You know, as John mentioned, it's all about helping the customer's focus and their cloud talent is scarce and it's a scarce resource. And you want to make sure that your cloud talent is working on the cool stuff or they're going to leave. And as you train and skill these folks, they want to focus on what really impacts the business, what's really differentiating. You know, doing the cloud and the necessities on operations and operational tasks and sec ops and things like that. Sometimes that's not the sexiest part of the work that the customer really wants to focus their team on. So again, I think together we're able to help drive high levels of automation and really do that day in and day out work that is not necessarily the differentiator of their business and that's going to attract and keep the best and brightest minds in these customers, which allows us to help them with the undifferentiated aspects of the heavy lift. Not only is availability of people, it's keeping the people. I love that, great call out there. Okay, when does this go? When does the relationship go? You guys are partnering, the AMS is going on strong, managers is not going to go away. More many people will be using managed services. It's part of the ecosystem within the ecosystem. What's next in the relationship? I'll speak first, I'm sure you got some thoughts too, but we've got so many things on our plate around predictive operations and the predictive capabilities that we're excited about tackling together. Obviously there's all sorts of unique applications that require even deeper capabilities and working with Smartronics to help us provide even greater insight into the application layer. So I kind of see us expanding both horizontally as well as well as vertically and horizontally we've got customers looking at the edge with the outpost solutions and we can snap into those capabilities as well. So there's a tremendous amount of kind of, I'd say, vertical and horizontal opportunity that we can continue to expand in together. John, your reaction, that's pretty right on. Absolutely, I think John Bruggen really hit it and I think really machine learning, that's a big area of focus. If you look at all this data that's being collected, predictive modeling and so we have this kind of transition from a model where people were basically watching screens reacting and what the AWS MSP offer and what AMS offers is really predicting so you're not doing that, you're not reacting, you're proactively ahead of things and the honest truth is AWS is such a well-run service it just doesn't break. It doesn't break like what you see in the traditional kind of legacy infrastructure and so at times we're just continuing to climb that stack as John mentioned. You know what's really interesting is you guys are actually talking, I'm thinking myself, just go back a couple of years ago, eight years ago or so, dev ops was a bad word. Devs dominate ops through them. Now operational leverage is a huge part of this AI operations that entire IT service management is being disrupted heavily by cloud operations that also facilitate rapid development models. So again, this is like under reported but it's a really nuanced point. Hardened operations for security and not holding back the developers is the cloud scale. What's your guys reaction to that? Yeah, completely agree. I think the automation piece of things and I think customers are still going through transitions. Traditionally managed services means a big staff and it's like I said, sitting there watching screens and you flip that model where you have developers actually deploying code and infrastructure to support it. It's very transitional and very transformative. And I think that's where an offering like what we really partnered on really, really helps because at times it can be overwhelming for customers and we just want to simplify that. And as I've said, let them focus on your mission. Yeah, amen. One last question before we break because I was talking to another partner, a big partner of AWS. And we're talking about SaaS versus solutions. And sometimes if you're too sassy, you're not really building a custom solution but you can have best of both worlds with little professional services, maybe some headroom on the stack if you will and you're building solutions. So the next question is, as you guys put this cutting edge innovated solution together, how are your customers consuming it? Like what's the consumption? I'm assuming they must be happy because it's a lot of heavy lifting being taken away that they don't have to deal with. How's the contract process? Well, I think we have the opportunity we support customers in kind of all modes of their application stack. So a full stack solution, even a legacy architecture moving to the cloud requires a high degree of automation to support it. And then as those applications become modernized over time, they become much more cloud native. And at some point, they might even become a full stack SaaS offer. So many of our customers actually run their SaaS platform leveraging our capability as well. So I think it gives the customer a lot of optionality and future kind of growth as they modernize their application stack. John, your reaction to that? Absolutely. I think one of the greatest benefits is it's freeing up funds to do mission work. And so instead of spending time procuring hardware and managing it and leasing data center space, they literally have more funding. And so we've seen customers literally transform their business because this piece of it's done more efficiently and they have really excess and really additional funding to do their mission. I love the business model innovation faster, higher quality, easy, and inexpensive. That's the flywheel. Gentlemen, thank you for coming on. We've got the three John Johnson, the vice president, Cloud Solutions, that's smart Tronix. Thank you for coming on, John Brinton. VP of Amazon Web Services Managed Services also known as AWS. No, AMS, AWS. Got upside down, WM looks the same. Thank you guys for coming on. Appreciate it. Thank you, John. Appreciate it. Keep covers here, AWS Summit. We're live on the ground and we're remote. It's a hybrid event. I'm John Furrier, your host. Thanks for watching.


So I fear that I have made a little bit of an intranet mistake. The other day I very jokingly posted a video about the fact that therapy is a total scam, guys, because it makes you feel things gross. Let me say numb and dead inside. I'm quite comfortable. Thank you. And this video was very much a joke. But the comment section of this video was filled with a lot of people agreeing that therapy actually is terrible because it can connect you with your emotions. That's uncomfortable. That's a waste of time. That's why it's actually bad for you. I, like many of us, am very good at intellectualizing my emotions, which seems like it's so much easier than just feeling things. But it turns out part of being human is feeling. And to learn how to do that in a healthy, safe way, whether it is through therapy or other means, is a journey that I think is intensely worthwhile and a very healthy exercise for us. Our emotions are not the enemy. The goal is to not let them govern us or dictate our actions, but also not to deny ourselves experiences because we are too afraid of sitting with ourselves.


Just take a moment and make sure my feet are firmly planted on the ground in this moment. I don't know why I developed an eating disorder. The best answer I've been able to find is that genetics loaded the gun and environment pulled the trigger. Never having liked myself or feeling like anyone else in the world like me the way I was. Around age 14 I looked around and noticed that thinness and weight seemed really important. I would notice in movies, television, magazines, thin people were idolized and fat people were jokes. So when I started restricting my food intake, learning how many calories were in everything and developing rigid food rules to live by, it felt good and right and unfortunately my environment confirmed it too. I can't tell you how many girls came up to me and told me they were jealous of my weight loss and asked how I did it. I would go into clothing stores and wear the exact same size that was on the mannequin giving a very literal meaning to fitting in. Even boys started paying more attention to me.  This was my identity. This was who I was. The skinny girl. Thinness, weight, sizes, numbers. These things mattered and they mattered to me and no one could try and tell me that they didn't matter when they so obviously did matter in my world. As the years went by, if the obsession became too much or when my health started to deteriorate, I would attempt entering treatment. But it never worked because truly I didn't want to let go of my eating disorder. My Ed. Ed was the voice of my eating disorder and I didn't know who I would be without him. What anorexia and bulimia gave me was a sense of control when I didn't feel like I had any. It was a distraction and soothing escape from the house I lived in where I didn't understand why an alcoholic got to be the king who treated us however he wanted while we had to tiptoe. It gave me something to feel good about. What it took away from me, though, was everything. Every day for 14 years, 95% of my thoughts were dedicated to a maddening math problem of calories in, calories out, inches around my waist, numbers on a scale. The measures that made me feel safe and okay in the world I didn't understand. Imagine what it felt like for me then when I first got into a float tank last year. Absolutely horrifying. An environment without measurements, without weight. I tried floating after my friend Sandra Com from the float shop suggested it, but when I got in the float tank I was scared and alone. So I did what I would always do when I needed comfort, which was body checking. Obviously, I couldn't weigh myself, so I did this other body checking. I reached my arms around my waist to make sure my ribs were still protruding just as they were that morning in bed, but they weren't. I couldn't feel them. My body felt completely different in the non-gravity environment. So I reached my hands immediately for my hip bones. My hip bones were a big thing for me. As long as I could feel my pointy hip bones everything was okay, but the epsom salt water was so slippery my hands just slid right off. Even my body checking didn't give me comfort in the float tank. I was extremely alone. So I panicked. I started crying and tears rolled down my face, but I didn't want to let Sandra down. I wanted to get through this one float and then just never come back. So I had to find a way to feel good and I noticed that kind of swishing my hair back and forth kind of like a mermaid felt good. So I did that until I don't remember anything else except the music playing. So I didn't see at all how floating could help me in the long run. What I did like about it was how separated I felt entirely from the world. I could close the lid to the float tank and for 90 minutes pretend that the rest of the world just simply didn't exist. I could pretend that I didn't have the problems I was so tired of dealing with. For 90 minutes it really didn't matter if I was skinny or not. Being able to get into a float tank was the same kind of instant relief and escape that I sought from binging and purging food, from restricting calories, or from taking drugs. At the time I had a prescription for Adderall for increased focus at work. Although I was just taking it because it made me feel happy in a beat. And it also basically eliminated any sense of hunger. So Adderall seemingly fixed my eating disorder in the same way that you fix a leaky faucet by shutting off the water. No more leak. But this routine caught up with me. In addition to paranoia and delusion, I just wasn't able to function during the day or fall asleep without a pill. But I was worried that without pills and drugs, my eating disorder would ramp up again. And I was as ashamed as I was of taking drugs, I was more ashamed of the cycle of binging and purging food.  Some floats were first thing in the morning and some floats were right after work. Either way, I was replacing floats with taking a pill or binging and purging food. I would be at my job, at the time I was doing medical billing at a doctor's office, feeling the nasty withdrawals of trying to get off the drug as I was taking, and hearing my ed voice coming at me hard telling me how fat I would become if I eat food or if I didn't throw up the food I'd already eaten. And know that at least by 6 p.m., when I got in a float tank, I would be feeling different. No matter what anxiety and discomfort I was feeling in that moment, I would at least know that at 6 p.m., I wouldn't be feeling that way anymore. Instant relief. Ed couldn't get me in the float tank. His screams of becoming fat and demands to count calories for the day had no power. Sure, he was waiting for me right outside the float tank. But for 90 minutes, what he said didn't matter. Actually, I started hearing a different voice. A voice I hadn't heard since I met Ed. And this voice and I took adventures. This voice challenged me to ask for less hours at work so I could be less stressed, which I did. This voice asked me what it might feel like if I were happy, something I've never actually thought to ask myself before until then. This voice challenged me to start meeting friends for coffee because she knew how lonely I was, which I did. And I found that I was calm enough to actually follow through. Being a calmer, more reliable friend to other people was a quality that I noticed I started to like about myself, liking myself. That felt very different. In one float, this voice held my hand and flew me back to childhood to confront a previous trauma, but this time with the perspective of my adult self. As I adult me, watch this scene as an onlooker, I whispered to younger me that everything would be okay and that she didn't do anything wrong to cause it. I assured her that someday she would be confident and surrounded by friends who love her. And finally, the trauma suddenly seemed to have less power. I know what you're thinking. That's your inner voice, Emily. Why didn't you listen to that all along? It makes so much sense. I couldn't hear that voice over Ed. Or I remember hearing it for a moment and then Ed would swoop in and play on a reel all the mistakes I'd ever made in my life and how it was nothing before he found me. After floating one to four times per week for about six months, though, I stopped hearing Ed's voice altogether. He just went away. I noticed that I would start my daily math problem of counting calories and suddenly it seemed painfully boring. I noticed that I would eat food expecting to throw it up right after and suddenly purging seemed like a hassle because then I would just be hungry again. Where did Ed go? What happened was this. The more I got to know my inner voice, the more I got to know my identity outside of being just a skinny girl. The less I needed to be the skinny girl, the less I needed Ed. The more I liked myself, the less I needed Ed to tell me I was okay. The really incredible part about this is that until it happened to me, I didn't think that full recovery from the eating disorder was possible. All I had seen around me in treatment in support groups and among my Ed blogging recovery community was people cycling in and out of treatment until eventually resolving to live with their disorders as best they can by maintaining their symptoms. And that seemed really sad to me. When I turned 28 and realized that I'd had my eating disorder for half my life and when I looked back and couldn't even remember a time that I didn't have it, I truly thought I was just permanently damaged. And I wasn't alone in that thought. A 2011 New York Times article by Abby Ellen called, In fighting anorexia, recovery is elusive quotes Dr. Suzanne Dooley-Hash, a former emergency room physician regarding her own anorexia saying, I think I would be naive to think you would ever not be a part of my life. Ellen explains that most medical experts agree that a third of people with an eating disorder will remain chronically ill, a third will die of their disorder, and a third will recover with one significant caveat. There is little agreement as to what recovery means for people with anorexia. Most doctors believe that recovery from anorexia is rarely absolute and more often occurs by degrees. While patients may get better, aspects of their disease will continue to nag them. Ask my friends if they think any of my eating disorder still nags me.  Dr. Justin Feinstein at the Laureate Institute knows that sufferers deserve better than what they're getting. He believes in the plasticity of our brains to reach a point of full recovery and that the float tank is our most valuable tool for guiding patients to their inner voices and empowering them to heal themselves. I have no doubt that the work he's doing is going to change how people with eating disorders view their own potential for recovery and have hope. Imagine my joy to wake up now and not even hear my head voice to forget that that was a thing I once had to deal with. Ask me what I ate yesterday. I don't remember. Ask me what I'm eating for dinner tonight. I don't know yet. The quality of life I feel now is too good to just be a remission. The quality I feel now must mean full recovery. Talk about reprogramming. The book I wrote about this process of recovering for me is called Unsinkable. And you can actually read it for free. I just put it up on a website I made. It's emilykatenoran.com. And you can also buy a hard copy and buy a couple of copies for your float center just in case someone picks it up and connects with it. My bio on the float conference website also has those links. I'm extremely grateful that I have access to float tanks in my city. I interact a lot in the blogging community for eating disorder recovery. And some who've read of what's happened to me really want to try it but don't have access to a float tank nearby to open your float centers. And to those of you who run float centers or are opening float centers or are doing float research, I say on behalf of everyone who deserves better treatment than what they've had available, thank you.


So guys I am back with another power world video and this one's really exciting we get a glimpse of a brand new power, a massive update coming into the game this summer with 50 plus new powers coming into the game which we will check out and much much more this one guys you do not want to miss. How's it going people my name is DPJ and if you do enjoy the video leaving a like really helps me out and if you like what you see and want to see more be sure to subscribe. Okay so power world tweeted out last night the following a new teaser of something special coming to power world later this year will be revealed at a triple i initiative see you there April 10th 10 a.m PDT which is later on today as I make this video now we also see guys this image you're seeing right here which shows a picture of a green quiver now reading through the comments of this a lot of people are just saying oh that's just a color filter that's just a color filter if that was the case surely that blue eye would also turn green too so yeah I actually have conclusive proof that this is a new power which we'll get to in a quick second now you're noticing the background it looks like some kind of battle arena this is no doubt the pvp battle arena we know is coming to the game and I'm going to showcase it later on today so pretty pretty cool we also see here which is basically a crucible mark pvp symbol we see multiple games used so yeah that's no doubt what this is going to be later on today we get a a glimpse of what this will look like I cannot wait for it while I have you coming right here on my channel but there's also guys as we know that big update that's coming in the summer they promised a new island of many many new pals now would you believe me if I told you 50 plus new pals yes you heard that right 50 plus new pals I believe to be coming I'm going to check out a few of them now there is a website called pal db.cc which you're seeing unscrewing now this is basically one of those websites which just takes all the information that added with updates and patches on pc throws it into like a database where we can see what's coming what's in the game what we're missing and so forth and here guys with the latest major update they included 50 plus new pals yes you heard that right 50 plus now all of these well none of the new ones that ain't in the game so far have any kind of avatar you can see right there but I do showcase a little bit of information on them which we will check out and what I will say as well guys if you see duplicates of the same pal it's probably because it may be a boss variant of it or a different variant of the same said pal we do not know okay so we have this right here bad cat girl dark pal we can see its actual works used ability traits but in regards to there's no avatar here so we don't know what it looks like but it's definitely a new pal coming to the game bad cat girl though I don't know if this is going to be like some kind of placeholder name some of these names do scream a little bit like placeholders but you tell me either or new pal we have this one right here blue very very like what this is going to be a glass dark pal has quite a few works you can really trace it now if we come down here we can see bad cat girl here which is just I think this is the boss variant of it as you can see this one here don't say boss this one does say boss so I'm guessing this will be just like an alpha boss you'll find on a map with that symbol on the avatar too definitely what this is okay so if you come down you can see here we know these ain't even in the game yet this is um supposedly uh what's his name now bolt main his name here is bearded dragon which is very very interesting to give him his name like this in the game files we here see jogustophy this is a new one we know is coming to the game this dark dragon type pop we've seen these plenty in the trailer but if we come down here because the boss version of that blue very very there but we keep coming down guys there's so many more we have this one right here boss cat mage fire I believe this would just be maybe a different version of catress or even vixen we don't know coming down even fair we can see dark mutant there this is another pal we know is in a game somewhere when it's coming we don't know what dark mutant sounds badass well that I do believe is a placeholder name you can see here guys bolt main this is the same pal we just saw up top this is the boss version of it though and you can see here it's actually using its proper name so yeah again take a lot of these as placeholders that are in the game files have we come down here guys we see this from right here the boss fox mage very very interesting fire dark type there we have a grass dragon very very interesting too now this isn't the grass dragon in the quivern I'm talking about that's down below we'll get to that in a second we see this one right here golden horse pretty cool we have this right here which is just says griller ground I'm not sure what this is or what it will be we have guardian dug right there guys we also have what looks to be or what could be an electric version of house suffer which we see right here so this is very very interesting to a different variant of house suffer very very cool now if we come down here guys we see this one right here king bayermut nice this actually I believe what this could be is if you see the actually shot on the screen now there is a early early trailer we saw with some giant chinese looking dragon flying through the sky that's what I believe this may be now has a four in that milding worksuit ability but it also half offers that divine dragon there so that's very very interesting to divine dragon right now is exclusive to jet wagon so very very interesting okay so if we come down a little further guys now I apologize if I do miss any there's like so many little icons here we have pink kangaroo pretty cool we have bushy there which we know about already bushy is a alphabet bus we find on the map right now as standard we have scorpion man scorpion man okay very very cool we have um this one right here we have seafood dug pretty cool but as you can see guys we have quiven right there and then guys we have quiven but it says quiven sky dragon grass and there we have it absolutely undoubtedly quiven so dragon grass type now if you scroll back to that uh tweet that is exactly what I believe we are seeing right there 100% we are getting a different variant of quiven which is a badass palette already you can also see the worksuit abilities changes as well with planting there which planting isn't there too so it's definitely what we're getting and what we're seeing there so pretty cool people we then guys come down we see tentacle turtle what the heck is this pretty badass now there's quite a few here guys we have a water lizard this is a fire type uh what water lizard fire type okay we have chili and we also have what people are calling grill it which is a new fire type uh chili which people have believed well people believe before this that it was coming now it's basic confirmation pretty badass we have a wing golem pretty cool and I mean there's so many more look at all these there's so many more here we're gonna be here all day volcano dragon we have dark mecha dragon ghost rabbit we have dark alien we have leaf princess night blue horse we have white shield dragon we have mushroom dragon mushroom dragon dark small armadillo kendo frog black poppy candle ghost we have white deer mystery mask king whale uh hood ghost we have shekmet we have moon queen electrolyzid grim girl purple spider rock beast blue thunder horse brown rabbit again I believe we all went through that we've got boltman right there again golden horse feather ostrich some of these are repeating duplicating here there could be different variants of new pals coming to the game too again these are early placeholder items but there are tons and tons guys and the list just goes on and on and on got gorilla right there right again now gorilla grind is that not the move that we have with um go with that so are we seeing something different there I think we may be I'm not too sure but if you look at the works it believes they kind of match too well who knows guys who knows people but there's so much coming and I cannot wait to dive deep into the new information that will be coming on later today now as soon as that does hit the worldwide web I'll have you covered right here on my channel that is for sure but plenty of new pals guys even more here sky dragon grass weasel dragon the haze bird electric running dark dark scorpion grand we've been through that one already I mean there's millions guys I think there's like 52 in total that we've actually worked out um as coming with this next summer update so who knows guys who knows it's gonna be incredible and I cannot wait for it but there we have it guys for a new power world video absolutely massive in regards to the new pals coming I cannot believe what I'm seeing guys if you enjoyed the video leaving a like really helps out for like what you see I want to see more power would be sure to subscribe and hopefully guys I will see you on that next one
