In case you don't know me, I am a Hong Kong-based trader who trades upon the influence of geopolitical events on the financial market for a living. Not your typical technical analysis, nor your typical fundamental analysis. Normally I am quite successful in predicting the outcomes of events and thus the direction(s) of market movements, but I never bothered with estimating magnitude - until Cindicator  (CND).

Bet on Greece

The Greek people voted overwhelming #OXI in their #Greferendum.  Unlike what the big banks and EU leaders have been telling you, Grexit is impossible. The EU architects won't let it happen. The Greek debt really isn't sustainable even with reforms, according to IMF's report. ECB turning off ELA causing financial collapse in Greece will be a PR disaster. Lastly, just look at the map: My predictions: Preliminary bailout agreement within 72 hours. Banks reopen before next Monday. PMI 60+ in the following months. GDP growth 10+% next year.
