Lots of folks been waiting for this for a while. But what does it really mean?
Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Likely will have a 5% run up to 21,000 after breaking historical resistance and a central milestone. Notwithstanding, I don't chase markets up. I buy in crashes. And with Trump running the showing, volatility is guaranteed, so I'll sit on the sidelines for the next four years waiting for this big dip.

How are you able to time the market?

If I could accurately time the market, I'd play options. You can't time the market with 100% certainty. Though, I have yet to see any U.S. market which has broken historical resistance levels that had not fallen back 20%+ below the resistance level at some point thereafter.
There will always be a crash: '87, '99, '08, and intermittent 20% corrections in between.

So should guys like me continue funding our S&P index funds?
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I presume you are already cost-averaged in at much lower entry in your portfolio anyway. So ultimately how much would an extra 20% of your contribution cost you by entering a bit high at today's price?
I take two approaches: (1) Retirement, whereas I invest intermittently regardless of entry point; (2) Investment, whereas I wait for a good entry point (the dip) and exit at former broken resistance levels.
But my equity portfolio is the piker against my real-estate holdings.

There's no point in stopping now.
If you were wanting to establish a large position, waiting for a panic sell-off would be the time. Shots fired in the South China Sea would be the next crisis I'd look for.

Not only that, but as the "funny money" keeps getting printed, the stocks will keep on rising...

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

The market is thinking that Trump isn't going to be able to pass any trade-restrictive policies like tariffs or repealing nafta. For that to happen, the Republicans would have to like him, and a lot of them don't already. They are going to let him sign off on all the business-friendly Repub agenda, but they're not going to compromise to pass anything remotely populist that he promised.

I'm just glad I continued putting money into investments back during the crash. I am rising like crazy at the moment.
I do expect the correction soon though.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Fading the gap is a day trading strategy. I'm not sure it works on a multi-day timeframe. The reason it works intraday has to do with the nyse specialist's order volume. If there is bad news overnight, he is going to show up to work with a big basket of sell@mkt@open orders. If you give him a buy at mkt at open order on a day like that, you're his best friend, and he is going to reward that loyalty. Whatever price you pay at the open, it will go up from there, at least for a little while. And it's the opposite for gapping up, you sell short into the open.
The chart above is a breakout, and that is nothing you want to fade. But this exact moment is obviously not the best entry point. There will be a retracement, as taught by Leonardo of Pisa, filius Bonacci, aka The Great Fibonnaci. I had his picture taped on the side of my computer monitor when I was a day trader:

Look at that chart, from the high onward, the bounces it makes are all Fib retracements. 1/3, 1/2, and 2/3 are the key levels.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
