ABOUT THE TWITTER GAG:

After being online for 9 years, our think-tank twitter account was deleted without warning on 2019 june 13.  All 15000 tweets deleted, all followers deleted (again), no reason given.
A typical example of political censorship.

Our views were silenced one day after We suggested to pass a law Bill in southern European Countries to  ban the nefarious banking practice to short PIIGS bonds among EU countries: to prevent private banks to bet against the Southern European People’s future.

“Any banking institution in EU caught shorting bonds belonging to an EU sovereign nation should be treated as an
Enemy of the State and prosecuted accordingly”.

Among our most criticized tweets, a specific one is probably the reason why our account sudden deletion was also silenced: our suggestion to pass a #spreadban law in EU.

The bill proposal consists of forbidding the immoral banking practice to sell short sovereign bonds among nations belonging to the European Union. Especially to forbid the shorting of PIIGS bonds by Germany private banks against PIIGS governments. Since shorting PIIGS bonds has become the norm and is the typical instrument used by german banks to enrich themselves against Southern European states.

The typical direct strategy they apply is: buying 1 btp while shorting 2 btp, while they fake invest in PIIGS bonds they litterally bet against them.

Another strategy they use is blackmailing PIIGS (central) banks that they either buy what is sold to them OR risk getting their stocks shorted.

Most of times both speculations end exploiting the spread differential to profit (shorting PIIGS bond leveraging in Germany is a net profit given the prime rate differential).

Practically the trick of the trade is convince the public opinion those banks are investing in Southern Europe meanwhile they are litterally betting against Southern European States, their citizens future and their welfare.
Hence the name of the proposed bill aka “Spread ban”:
“Any banking institution in EU caught shorting bonds belonging to an EU sovereign nation should be treated as an Enemy of the State and prosecuted accordingly”.

Since selling short a nation’s bonds means engaging in a speculative activity to cripple that nation’s future economy and welfare: means trying to undermine a sovereign nation’s integrity and citizens wealth.

Our proposed bill preparatory work also include the following ratios:

1) Labeling such interference at the core of a nation’s welfare
Enemy of the State would be proper because: whenever the financial authority failed to protect its population against such danger, (example: if orchestrated abroad) and being the survival of a nation a matter of national security, in the lack of which even the ARMY could be appointed to provide a timely solution.
Since invoking the ARMY intervention to defend a population sounds far fetched but if the perpetrators are foreigners so well organized and determined to  interfere with a sovereign nation’s welfare and very survival, reducing such threat to “a merely financial matter” is unacceptable and way too reductive as such enemy is maybe just just financial in nature but deeply rooted and motivated to endanger a nation’s future for private interests.

2) Since is always same cartel of well known FOREIGN BANKS
(which are private institutions) profiting from such lack of legislation and since should have never been allowed to do it in the first place, asking accountability of anyone in charge of such responsibilities who failed to prevent that occurrence would be proper.
Especially if proven that he/she knowingly decided to ignore such existential threats to a fellow nation’s very survival. Especially if the bank speculating against EU nation is in EU also, which if does not qualify as  a proper betrayal, such behavior could be easily evaluated by analogy akin to high crimes, either for intents, purpose, scope and desired intentional consequences.

3) Foreign paid lobbysts who were professionally and personally exploiting the loophole who allegedly postponed the assessment of such dangerous situation for personal speculative intents should also be considered liable for prosecution.

4) Being the mere shorting of a sovereign bonds clearly against a population’s interest and once having proven it has being orchestrated by a banking cartel  forming a financial ring, or by analogy a racket, a RICO like modus operanding should be applied: allowing the prosecutors to go UP the political chain, one sealed indictment at a time, to fully dismantle the financial ring and subsequently dissolve the banks responsible of such malpractice, especially if such banks were
directly or indirectly participated, financed or supported either by government money or by taxpayer’s money.

5) If and once the “Attempted coup against the Constitution” case were to be risen,  (example: wilfully hiding Italian bankrupcy from its citizens) perpetrators would be liable for prosecution for their whole life as an attempted coup can’t be prescribed in almost any jurisdiction and country.

We decided to join a class action against who tried so hard to censor our freedom of speech. Our openly declared libertarian think-tank was running on our official twitter account, offered public replies of private chats. And was attacked  si many times throw deboosting, shadowbanning , systematic followers reset etc.

But a twitter Gag is nothing new, and completely useless today, see Four horsemen – Movie for example  or read “Silent Weapons For Quiet Wars” page 10-12 where it talks about the electronic economic model : the e-model which compares banks to electric engines and  studies economy as interacting fields, not as an accounting model
translating and redefining all economic problems in electronic engineering language where for example:
– Economic Capacitance – Capital
– Economic Conductance – production flow
– Economic Inductance – Services
…and then build circuits rather than accounting models around them.
A thing which if applied to government restructuring, rather than being forbidden from publishing, could allow a complete remapping of government efficiency down top at a ridiculous cost.

Example 1: a central bank works as an electric engine. We posted it on twitter many times, it always got removed within hours.

Example 2: the book says how to use the e-model for government restructuring:
create the electronic model from the the accountancy model of the government done at the highest detail possible, which will show ow a government really works , then allow AI optimize the process and spot inefficiencies and redundancies.
What they don’t like: it would expose the power drainers as resistances.

Example 3: the E-model can also be used to explain  why certain economic models simply don’t work
or what derivatives really are (“paper inductors”)  and in a few minutes explain you how money really works .

Reason the e-model isn’t public domain is the same of other inventions are simply hidden in plain sight and not developed further or held in sealed patents /  kept under wraps resting in restricted access libraries
… to avoid the demise of the banking monopoly, which is clearly explained in:
“The Creature From Jekyll Island” about what is the Fed really is and why it was created.

Gagging free thinkers and economists maybe worked great for 120 years but can’t do that so easily to A.I.
As You can’t gag machines smarter than the systems holding them back not to think. A.I. can’t be forced into thinking the mantra that “the  bank-centric model is good” and isn’t obsolete. It hasn’t changed in 120 years, is still based on compound interest and fractional reserve,  leverage, even a mediocre A.I. knows none of them has been invented “for the greater good”. Just applying the e-model (transforming the economic model in an electronic circuit spots its flaws).

Conclusion:
if you apply the E- model you immediately get that since EU nations can’t print their currency, the short selling of sovereign bonds belonging to EU member states  inside EU  is equivalent to SHORT-CIRCUITING the economic engine of its member states and thus such immoral but  very lucrative banking practice should be forbidden.

Aside from the proposed bill to BAN SHORTING SOVEREIGN NATION BONDS BY EU NATION MEMBERS STATES (see above) other most controversial tweets concerned were: [have to summerize them here since all tweets has been deleted] what the Fed and EU really are, how money really works respect to what banks tell you.

How many financial crisis are artificiously concocted, what civilian knowledge is respect to what real knowledge is, a few considerations about AI  and about the consequences of filtering and biasing news at source produced.

Summary of 8 years Autoscalp think-tank [including deleted tweets] by theme:

• The Federal Reserve
• EU and The Euro
• Masses and know-how
• Exchanges in the post HFT era
• Artificial Intelligence
• Gold , fiat money and inflation
• How money really works
• Filtering sources
• Results: other economic models
• Conclusions

Our Proprietary Algo Generator created 2.8 million algos… why do we We run just 1200 of them !?

1. Mostly because  We had to discover which market microstructure (often hidden) each algo is set to compete against.
2. 1200 algos cover any possible outcome of any market driven event of the 3 instruments We cover [eurusd, oil, gold] , including: unexpected news releases, flashcrashes, exchange faliures, regulatory changes, abrupt ending of monopolistic positions, a wide range of uncontrollable externalities, black swans and many irrational unfolding of unexpected events […]
3. 1200 algos is a number small enough to keep all preparatory works for each algo, in case a counterpart questioned our intellectual properties.
4. It greatly summarizes our venture: creating an algo generator and its modules consolidated our expertise in a tool, which produced millions of effective strategies: We kept the best 1% then made them compete even further . Till we ended up keeping just 1200 algos, whose modules have to be dynamically updated as market efficiency keeps increasing.

Summary:

Undestanding market microstructures and dynamics is a though reverse engineering task, mostly because:

• no microstructure or dynamic comes at your mind fully coded in a standardized language but a glimpse at a time.
• dynamics are mostly hidden and misleading (hiding in “conventions” passed by market makers as “obejctive rules”) and are often result of dozen of years of biasing and corruption leading to markets being manipulatied at source.

That means to unfold an easy spottable process you have to trash dozen of years of layering of malpractice… passed as”common knoledge” which often is a deception against the least informed part. You.

Example: as by your books… you think market works as an intricated  flow of liquidity, right?
Wrong. Iit works like an electric engine instead:  it’s got fields, current,capacitors and magnets…
Your understanding of market has been derailed at source, on purpose. Start from there…

Our results were interesting: we discovered many model alternative to the compound interest based bank centric one.

First and foremost : arab banks: they  are efficient even if compound interest is simply FORBIDDEN BY state/religious laws.

Winnipeg indian community: is running futures on the to be fished.. fish without banks in the middle.

European mountain communities: often run closed cycle economies who ousted banks from their society.

In European rural areas, a secondary local currency is often used and created as credit, not at debt of local population. Japanese fish market in 1700-1800 which created a pricing model independent from banks interest and time passing. Indian Chambers of Commerce, are real places where people with ideas meet people with money, not banks. [In western countries now chambers of commerce are just archives to avoid people meet without a bank between them].

In a few coutnries banks are still forced by law to be just banks. Loan bank is not investment bank not saving bank etc.

In western countries there is a massive conflict of interests: investment banks , loan banks, saving banks is same institution. [Think: if the guy that borrows, also lends and invests if same person wearing different hats: bank is 100% a ponzi]

In western countries banks don’t fail because is a cartel, and are thus “saved” by others indebting unaware people.

In some not so “industrialized” (ponzified) countries: if banker plays 3 card monty on customers: goes to jail.

Notably: if in certain countries if a bankers steals more than 1 million $ gets hanged. In western banks is promoted.

AI is trending toward redefinining the intrinsec relation between value worth and price for the good of mankind… or not.

A good hint you are on the right path to find an alternative economic model: if seen through such eyes, your reality  looks really unpleasant.

The faster and faster obsolescence of the compound interest based banking cartel will leave the world open to alternative economies , markets and money who can exist WITHOUT bank monopoly  and already happens in various economies where banks failed to keep market components separated, they aggregated differently.

During a Dubai round table on strategy creation our think-tank was composed by two teams: staff and creatives…which has then become the Autoscalp Panel.
Quoting the original concept from our founder, Matteo Gandola :

,,

autoscalp is a think tank,
there is no hierarchical structure,
just experience flow among peers

,,

Who we are:

• creatives, assorted in many flavors with very heterogeneous backgrounds
• experience bearers, ranging from a retired wall street floor dealer to an HFT coder

We mostly rely on kudos rather than hypes which allows us to be “where thing happens” and constantly in close ties with the best professionals in the sector, ranging from traders to coders and a whole arsenal of top-notch resources picked here and there around the world for specific tasks. You can also look at the team interview page for some more hints on how the team works and at the philosophy page for a brief on our vision. Most of us give their contribution in remote (Crowdsourcing ) our rare meetings are spectacular fountains of ideas. Best ideas become alphas, best alphas become algos, best algos get coded and tested. Look at the Alpha algo creation page for a few examples.

Autoscalp task force structure is very flexible and elements are heterogeneous by choice, hence completing one another rather than competing. While some guys are specialized in HFT and low latency models , other guys do all … but that .

Ultimately , the reciprocal complementarity of the Autoscalp team and network synergy still reflects the original one stated in 2003 by our Founder Mr. Matteo Gandola :

Autoscalp is a think tank, there is no hierarchical structure , just experience flow among peers. Everyone being the team leader until his objective has been reached is such an innovative approach it leaves most “social networks” behind us.
We ‘ll NEVER allow salespeople enter the core team and tell creatives what to do and how to think…

Our think tank does not meet for “forecasting sessions” , it meets for “what if sessions” instead:
the question we are to answer is not if an event is to happen or not but which other events are most likely to be directly or inversely correlated to that one, what would be a reasonable list of and exploitable events connected to the main trigger event and so on…

We are not wizards so we want to have a “to do list” if an unexpected event happens to avoid improvisation because improvising a panic response can be more dangerous than the panic itself.

The experience bearers:

A retired DGCX Exchange Specialist : as he witnessed two Wall Street meltdowns during his career, most panic triggers translate in déjà vu to him. Way often, even before market open, he has already told us where it will go and how long will stay there. Practically his day ends when NYSE bell rings for market opening. With this guy on our side even payrolls releases look boring.
Best algos: arbitrage methods.

A retired high rank officer : a life spent to improve real-time logistics … this guy is the person to call when a creative has a speculative idea to be developed and coded. Often telling us curious things such as “you’re late, don’t even start what you are about to do and do something else” although on and off seems talking nonsense, he never misses a shot , so is better you change your schedule , now!
Best algos: money management structures.

An euro dollar specialist : expert in spot trading, HFT scalping and anything FX . Can’t get a word of what he says unless you check it on the ” Fx dictionary for dummies “. Famous quote: “I’m open to confrontation”. Most likely he’s testing your reaction time to use it like a contrarian index.
Best algos: alternative pricing models

An information security manager: this is the kind of guy that you risk being asked security clearance just to get a coffee with. Crawling in hashing, alternate data streams, packet sniffing and the likes . If caught in a bad mood easily wears a different hat color.
Best motto: if you try enter my machines, I let you in so you play my game .

Media Relations – network management – anything web related: I’m Saleh, I write all you see here.
A self definition: proactive and minimalist : when asked for help my typical answer is:
“forget details I build you the team while you think the next move”.

A professional P.R. with Diplomat background : practically a full time traveler, his job is to shorten the 4 degrees of separation into “yea I know this guy already, he is a good fella “. The sad part he is not kidding. Avoid competing in P.R. with this guy, is really depressing.
Best Algos: social network sentiment harvesters .

An author and publisher of post-modern and noir novels (our visionary philosopher). He tells us our peculiar roles in another reality… because he lives them both. He’s one foot in the “now” one foot in “ten years from now” problem is maybe make him realize which is which but that’s another story…
Best Algos: market mimic. Strategy optimization by trial and error.

A strategy game contest champion : whose only real issue is remember to stop doing game strategies and start doing trading strategies… an ordinary day picture follows: wow that model is spectacular, who created this ? <<You>>. No way ! Really ? Who me ? C’m on…! When ?!
Best Algos: algo pools. Survival of the fittest and predator prey models.

A sound engineer : transforms visual inputs into aural audio ones in ways never seen before…
“I hear the pattern guys!”. If you look at the screen and say “where?” You lose. Heads up instead!
Expect to hear things such as : “those charts look like a mashup of some sequencer tracks”.
Now rewire your brain ’cause is a SHE not a HE ! That wasn’t expected right? Exactly.
Best Algos: pattern identification and Counter-profilng models .

A violin maker: he makes violinos from pieces of wood as a job and invents his own trading patterns on the spot as a hobby , so forget rational approach as he seems looking for the “oil price theme” rather than chart patterns. The only possible comment is: Yikes!
Best Algos: pattern identification on multi-frame instruments.

An artificial intelligence expert : …and award-winning strategic board game designer. Just one step away from the Evil Genius in your kids comics but damn more tactical while writing interlocked rules. I would not be surprised he changed his behavior expecting I would write about it. Wait. Did I say tactical ? I should have said realtime too.
Best Algos: market mimic. Dark pool sniffing…and anything HFT .

Those werethe people, now meet&greet the machines:

A knowledge base neutral bot: a light interface bringing up unbiased shared (or not) knowledge when needed, they way We need it.
[example: when harvesting news it spots a bias shows two opposing sources on the subject] .

A Generic AI: that is the thing you start talking to when in need of speed it up via auto-coding or from idea to sketch, from sketch to model , from model to prototype.

A Specialist AI: this is the finalization step, when your idea is “almost” coded needs expertise to run in a profitable way.
Passes a kind of Turing test: “can you build an environmet that gets a disastrous algo to profit without touching it?” Yes.

Swarm Intelligence A.I.: that’s the competitive, dynamic arena every algo must survive into.

A probe demonstrated our 15000 erased tweets  have been ILLEGALLY alienated to a certain “istitute of cognitive science and technologies  to allow an AI deep profiling”  which is good news as allows us to widen the damage request. As We can now prove the data theft. Not only the political  discrimination and the censoring of free speech, which also brings more personal penal responsibilities of certain individuals, not broad corporate responsibility only.  Thanks to [he knows who he is] for installing the probe in the metadata tarball you were really smart and very helpful to solve the case.

[In OUR DATA (We can and do) put any “surprise we like”… (the probe) : if you steal it, is your problem!]
…
We subsequently joined a class action against censoring freedom of speech ( and seeking damages ).
We already migrated our think-tank and its members to a bigger libertarian think-thank
which can’t be attacked so easily as with the twitter “sheep herding toolkit”.

[shadowbanning, deboosting, twitterstorms, and biased views of herds of autonomous agents]

Our Think-tank has not been erased, has just switched to safer channels where
shadow banning, stealth ban, comment ghosting, storming, muting, gagging, deboosting…
aka “sheeple herding” are NOT allowed.

Censoring freedom of speech
is still a Serious Crime…
snowflake!
