Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 1095

"Should we enter the market now?"

James asked.

He had brought two trillion dollars this time, matching the capital Mira and Ellis possessed. Whether the funds belonged to his syndicate or were a personal investment, Mira had no idea.

That was his business, and it wasn't her place to pry.

Given the covert nature of their operation, James had only brought two assistants and two bodyguards. His trading positions were managed entirely by his assistants.

During their last visit to Wall Street, Mira's team had profited off the Javenaire Federation. This time, they were essentially tripping up the major syndicates and bleeding their accounts dry.

Absolute secrecy was paramount.

Ethan, Hank, and Harvey were running operations similar to last time.

On Mira's end, Lucian and Owen acted as the lead traders, with Cyrus providing support. Mira strictly commanded the floor.

Hearing James's question, Mira hesitated for a moment.

The major syndicates had been aggressively shorting the Siamese Baht over the past few days, and she hadn't planned on jumping in just yet. However, she remembered from her past life that the Baht's exchange rate would slide continuously for a week before showing any signs of recovery.

Since that was the case, they might as well ride the wave and skim whatever profits they could.

"Deploy a third of our funds and short it. Keep it at five times leverage."

It was just a side play to make some extra cash, so Mira prioritized stability over massive risk.

The team immediately followed her instructions.

"If we do that, aren't we just helping them out?"

James asked, clearly puzzled.

"We are, but we're also hitching a free ride. Their initial capital is massive, meaning the trend won't reverse for at least a few days.

So, it would be foolish not to take their money while we can."

"Then why not throw more weight into it?"

Hank asked.

"Look at the weekly charts. The drop only started recently, which means the main players haven't fully entered the market yet. If we dump too much capital in now, we'll expose ourselves."

"Makes sense," James agreed.

At least their cover remained perfectly intact.

The next day, the Siamese Baht's daily chart continued its downward spiral. "Are we still investing today?"

Wesley asked.

"Deploy another twenty percent. Keep shorting it with five times leverage."

On the third day, Mira's team injected another ten percent, still maintaining the five times leverage. This meant sixty percent of their total capital was now in play.

By the fourth day, Mira halted all further investments. At the absolute latest, the exchange rate would rebound the day after tomorrow.

To play it safe, they needed to execute their next move in exactly two days. Throwing more money in today would yield negligible returns.

The risks were simply too high. She only entered the market when the odds of massive profitability were overwhelmingly in their favor.

Over the following evenings, they frequently spotted Vivienne in the hotel.

"What do you think she's doing here?"

Harvey asked Mira. "My guess is she noticed we vanished from Mavaria and came looking for us."
