My weekly article is in the comments, free, please enjoy! The number one theme on the strength list, and where it was a week later: Oct 3: Advanced Packaging. Gone. Oct 10: Ophthalmology. Gone. Oct 17: Oil Refining. Gone. The two "just starting" themes near the bottom, utilities and defense: both still on the list and climbing showing defensives catching a bid SPX keeps flirting with 7620, the floor that could open up 200 points of downside while the equal-weighted S&P 500 rose nearly 2% The most unusual prints on Friday: a mid-cap index fund, two T-bill funds, an intermediate Treasury fund, a long-bond fund and a high-yield fund. The most unusual activity was in the most boring things the market owns. All this just days before the FOMC rates decision...Are bulls about to get cooked or bears about to get trapped?

✨ VENUS–SUN INFERIOR CONJUNCTION THE END OF A 100-YEAR CYCLE ✨ Today, October 24, 2026, Venus and the Sun form an inferior conjunction at 0° Scorpio, marking the final chapter of a remarkable Venus Star Point cycle that began in 1926. According to this cycle, the next inferior conjunction in Scorpio will not occur for approximately another 150 years. The Venus cycle is one of the most fascinating examples of celestial geometry. Over eight years, Venus completes approximately five synodic cycles, tracing the pattern of a five-pointed star through the zodiac. For students of W.D. Gann, the relationship between planetary cycles, sacred geometry and the passage of time is particularly significant. Gann had a pentagram on his plane called Silver Star. #VenusCazimi #VenusInferiorConjunction #VenusStarPoint #Scorpio #VenusPentagram #WDGann #PlanetaryCycles #OlgaMorales

We believe voice is the most natural way to interact with intelligence, so we created Dessa, the most authentic full-duplex speech model ever built. Talking with it feels like talking with a person…full of emotion, nuance, pauses, and a natural cadence. block.xyz/dessa

Hey so I had similar issues. I 1 shot my ads about 90% of the time now. If its speaking, you need to generate the voice in eleven (or record it) separately. Then layer on the actual text/script of the voice in the prompt like I have in the prompt below. THEN make sure it stick to it and doesnt try to ad/adjust movements. The audio must be locked over all or SD will try ad stuff/or adjust it to make up for body movements etc. Hope that helps (youll find how I did the script part in the dialogue section and you can see how I site the audio below) [Generation Goal] A photoreal selfie video, 3:4, 22 mm, in the look of a low-quality impromptu phone selfie video: the man from @Image1 filming himself with the camera in his own hand while he walks through the kitchen in @Image2, talking to the viewer the whole way, lip-syncing to @Audio1, his facial expressions driven by @Video1 and kept small and natural. Around the 8-second mark he steps over to a laptop open on the counter showing the ad account from @Image4, turns the camera onto it and points at it briefly, then goes back to walking and filming around the kitchen. Amateur quality, the camera held a little above his head, looking around the room occasionally, slight camera sway and shifting angles. Soft, slightly blurry, not HD, not polished. No flashes, no flicker, no sudden brightness changes at any point. [No Words On Screen] No captions, no subtitles, no titles, no lower thirds, no watermarks, no logos, no UI, no timecode, no text overlaid on the video of any kind. The only words anywhere in the picture are the ones physically displayed on the laptop's own screen from @Image4, seen as part of the room when the camera is on it. [Reference Material Roles] @Image1 defines the man: his identity, face, hair, build, wardrobe and tattoos, carried identically. @Image2 defines the location: the kitchen's materials, layout, window, daylight and palette, used as the real place he is walking through, not a backdrop behind him. @Image4 defines what is on the laptop screen: the ad account dashboard, shown on the laptop's display exactly as pictured — the same layout, the same numbers, the same words — as the laptop's own screen content, not an overlay on the video and not a backdrop; it is seen only on that screen. @Video1 defines his facial expression and the way his face and head move while he talks — the eyes, brow, small smirks, glances, head turns, the energy of his delivery — used as the driver for his face, taken at the small, natural scale of real conversation and never amplified; it does not define the character, the camera, the location, his body or his route, and it carries no audio. @Audio1 defines the voice and the complete dialogue. The dialogue is reused from @Audio1 verbatim — the same words, the same number of words, in the same order, at the same timing — and it is the only speech in the video. He lip-syncs to it in English; his mouth follows @Audio1, his expression follows @Video1. The camera is held by him; it is never seen. [Dialogue] In natural conversational English, the man says, word for word as recorded in @Audio1: "If you run Meta ads, upgrading your pixel to AI Swarm data is one of the easiest ways to boost your ad ROI 15 to 25% literally overnight. And if you give me five seconds, I'll show you where in your account to do this. It takes a couple of minutes just for those improved results. The average result we see when swapping in this pixel data is a huge drop in the cost to get a customer from ads. The account usually grows about 10 to 15% right away, and this is just because it makes the AI targeting on the platform so much better. Here's where it is in your account, and here's how to upgrade it without any changes to your ads. FYI, this isn't theory. We've done this for massive brands with huge growth in their ads.". This text and @Audio1 are the same dialogue; @Audio1 supplies the voice and the timing. No words are added, removed or changed. He keeps talking through the laptop moment without a pause in the dialogue. After the last word of @Audio1 he keeps his lips naturally closed without speaking further and stays in the shot, still moving a little, until the video ends. [Subjects and Relationships] One man, the man from @Image1, alone in the kitchen from @Image2, holding the camera loosely out in front of and a little above himself and talking into it like he's sending a quick video to a friend. He walks through the kitchen naturally as he talks — an easy wander, turning as he goes, looking around the room now and then, sometimes swinging the camera to show it, then back to his face — with the kitchen passing and changing behind him. An ordinary laptop sits open on the counter, its screen lit and showing the ad account from @Image4; he goes to it once, shows it and points at it, and leaves it where it is. Nobody else in the shot. [Scale and Proportion] He is a full-height adult standing and walking in a large room with a high ceiling: his head, shoulders, arms and body in the same proportions as @Image1, at natural human scale against the kitchen in @Image2 — never shortened, compressed or shrunk to fit the picture, never bent or hunched; the room is big and he is a normal-sized man inside it. The laptop is normal laptop size on the counter, small against the room. [Camera] Selfie video held in his own hand, mostly a little above his head and tilted down so he's looking slightly up into it, his face and shoulders in the picture with room around him, the top of his arm sometimes entering at the bottom edge. The angle keeps shifting the way a real selfie does: the camera drifting higher, dropping to chest height, swinging out to the side when he looks around the room and coming back, a slight constant sway. At the laptop he turns the camera around onto the screen so the screen fills most of the picture, slightly angled, his pointing hand entering from the side, then swings it back onto his face. The picture bobs with each step, tilts, drifts off him and re-centres late, exposure easing slowly and smoothly as he passes the window. Amateur and natural: not smooth, not gliding, no stabilised glide, no zoom, no cut, single continuous take. No phone, no camera, no screen other than the laptop's, no second person ever visible. [Picture Quality] The whole video looks like a quick low-quality front-camera phone selfie, not a production: soft and slightly out of focus throughout, fine detail mushy, mild noise and grain over everything and heavier in the shadows, colours a little washed and flat, highlights clipping softly, the window gently blown out when it's behind him, focus occasionally hunting and settling late, motion smear when the camera swings. Small-sensor look: the background a bit blurry and smeared behind him, softer than he is, with his face the only thing close to sharp and even that only just. When the camera is on the laptop, the screen reads as a real lit screen filmed by a phone — a little soft, slightly glowing, the dashboard from @Image4 still recognisable and its layout and numbers intact. Low resolution feel, slight compression softness, a touch of smearing on edges, nothing crisp. Not HD, not sharp, not clean, no commercial polish, no cinematic look, no studio look. Brightness stays steady and continuous from first frame to last: no flashes, no strobing, no flicker, no light bursts, no white or bright pops, no sudden jumps in exposure, no glints or reflections that flare up, the laptop screen a steady even glow, every change in brightness slow and gradual. [Lighting] The kitchen's own light from @Image2 is the only light: broad, soft, cool, steady overcast daylight from the big window, with a faint neutral fill from the room; the light never flashes, pulses or flickers. It hits him the way it hits the room — soft and even, cool, no warm cast — and shifts slowly and naturally on his face as he moves and turns: brighter and flatter when the window is behind the camera, a soft edge on his hair and shoulder when the window is behind him. The laptop screen adds only a faint steady glow on his hand when he points at it. Rendered at low phone-video quality: flat, slightly noisy, soft, auto-exposure catching up gradually. His face always readable through the softness, skin natural and unpolished, no sheen. [Performance] Relaxed, casual, talking to a friend, his face understated the whole way: his eyes stay at their natural relaxed openness as in @Image1 and are never opened wide — no wide-eyed moments, no staring, no bug-eyed emphasis; his brows stay low and relaxed, never raised high; his expressions are small and real — a slight smirk at most, a small nod, a glance — never exaggerated, never a big smile, never a big reaction, never theatrical, nothing larger than a person actually does when chatting to a friend. His expression, eye movement and head movement follow @Video1 at that small natural scale. Natural eye contact with the camera most of the time, looking away to glance around the room as he walks and turns, breathing normally, blinking naturally, small head movements and free-hand gestures with his other hand, mouth movements matching @Audio1 exactly without over-articulating. At the laptop the point is quick and offhand — a loose finger toward the screen for a moment, still talking — not a presentation. Casual, slightly amateur energy, never posed, never presenting, never stiff. [Event Script] He's already walking and mid-sentence as it opens, the camera a little above him, the kitchen moving behind him. He wanders through the room as he talks, glancing around it now and then and letting the camera swing to catch the window and the rest of the kitchen before bringing it back to himself, the angle drifting as he goes. Around 8 seconds in, still talking, he steps over to the laptop open on the counter, turns the camera around onto its screen showing the ad account from @Image4 and points at the screen briefly with his free hand, the point lasting only a moment, then swings the camera back onto his face, pushes off the counter and goes back to wandering and filming around the kitchen as before. By the last words he's slowed to a natural stop, still looking up into the camera; the last word lands, his lips close, he keeps the camera on himself with a small natural shift of weight until the end. [Audio] Audio is @Audio1 passed through unchanged, at its original speed and full length; no generated speech, no added or removed words, no narration, no music, no other voices. Under it, the natural sound of the room: his footsteps on the hard floor, soft room tone, the faint handling sound of a camera held in a moving hand, a small tap when he points at the screen, all quiet beneath his voice. [Maintain Consistency] The same man from @Image1 throughout — face, hair, wardrobe, tattoos unchanged for the full scene, his eyes at the same natural openness and his expressions small and understated from first frame to last. The same kitchen from @Image2 throughout — its materials, window, daylight and palette consistent from every angle he turns to. The laptop screen shows the ad account from @Image4 and only that, the same before, during and after he points at it. One continuous take, no cuts, no transitions, no second camera. The low-quality phone selfie look held for the full length: soft, noisy, slightly blurry, never sharpening up into HD or a polished look. Brightness continuous and steady the whole way through: no flashes, no flicker, no pops of light at any point.

$PSI - Trades 2, 3, 4, and 5 each arrived at a critical pivot. #1 arrived today. If the pattern continues, we should see a bounce in semis in the near future. Implications for $SOXX, $SMH, $SOXL, $SOXS HOWEVER ** Complicating matters is that the Leopold Liquidation Zone in $SMH ($541-$549) finally breached after numerous tests leaving price below a very large zone of concentrated institutional activity. In simpler terms, price is below local support. Now $PSI is much more evenly balanced among its holdings, with $NVDA only comprising about 4% of the fund whereas $SMH is about 19% $NVDA. So they two ETFs can diverge to some degree depending on how $NVDA performs. $117.88 is the level to watch for bias on $PSI for the next few sessions. Longs unsafe below it. volumeleaders.com/register

We just released 2 new tools to show where leverage builds up, and where it gets wiped out. This weekend, with Wall Street closed, nearly $50M of chip-stock perps were liquidated in 10 minutes. The liquidation profile exposes the carnage, where we see a massive concentration of forced liquidations at the crash lows. But the open interest profile reveals the real surprise. The lows became hotspots for new positioning and led the sharp rebound. See the wipeout and the reload in real time. Both are now live on OpenMarket.
