Oil is at the heart of everything.

Fire · I · The wedge

Compressing like a spring.

Draw a line here and a line here and it compresses into a wedge. The strain builds up, and at some point it explodes. It's going to explode upwards.

Fire · II · The spike

The spike that shook the world.

One spike already shook the world and caused all the shit. Since then we've been compressing into this triangle, coiling tighter, waiting.

Wind · III · The fake-out

The best breakouts are made from fake-outs.

Whatever's happening right now, the fact that it's breaking down is a fake-out. They go down first, convince everybody, psych — and then it goes boom. The best breakouts are made from fake-outs.

Fire · IV · The $140 target

$140 breaks the economy.

Oil is likely to go to somewhere around $140. And at $140, it breaks the economy. Last time we were at $140 was 2008. You know what happened. We are now in the final, final, final countdown.

Fire · V · The handbrake

June strain. September seize.

The real handbrake hits around the June timeline, and then the gears seize up. We run out of oil to even run the economy by September. The crystal ball says it's coming.

Wind · VI · Negative divergence

The indicator says something's coming.

The indicator was going up while the price was going down at the same time. When that happens, expect the next shock in the markets. Gareth's been calling it. So have we.

Earth · VII · The coiled RSP

The equal weight, barely eking along.

The equally-weighted RSP is barely eking along within its triangle, ready for a bigger correction. It isn't that everything falls off a cliff. It's that markets drop hard so things can pump on the other side.

Fire · VIII · The September move

Energy lockdowns, justifiable.

Expect lockdowns after September — energy lockdowns. They'd be justifiable, because there isn't a quick solution to this problem. Many countries are already issuing oil-saving alerts.

Wind · IX · The excuse

Oil is the excuse the world needs.

There's always an excuse necessary to explain what's going on. This is going to be the excuse. Add Iran, add the other things, and it breaks the entire financial system from the heart.

Questions, answered

Frequently asked questions

What is The Forge?

The Forge is the chamber on oil and energy: the wedge coiling like a loading spring, the fake-out break-down, the $140 target that broke the economy in 2008, and the June-to-September handbrake on the whole system.

What is the Katana Catch?

Crypto XLNC's strategy: catch near the bottom of a sharp move, ride the bump up, exit when on-balance volume and the system's metrics are met, then skip most of the downside and catch the next one — roughly two to three moves a year.

Are the market claims here financial advice?

No. The macro calls and figures throughout — the bond crack, oil to $140, the gold reprice into Bitcoin, the 2029 timeline — are Sim Khela's on-stream thesis and personal framing, not settled fact and not financial advice. Crypto trading involves risk; returns are not guaranteed. Do your own research.
