Worse than stocks



I've had gold for about 4 years. Yes, it wasn't good at the start but I'm not going to complain because one day sucked. Only ones complaining are the day trade crowd.

Sold 25% of my holdings in NVAX and got out at $16 (not the high for the day, but not bad). I'll be riding the other 75% either to glory or the bottom of the ocean a la Titanic! Won't be posting about it here any more. House money now.

I hate to burst your bubble, but some of us actually know how to read a racing form and look at a stock chart.



Those levels were support 101, and even this guy was calling it out. Think he caught the low tick too.

Seriously, I don't know if its even 100% correct, but those fukkers seem to have low ticked the exact level that was set back on 10/3


This according to Ameritrade data. 2854.50 on the futures





How funkadelic is that ?


And you thought only the 6th at Aqueduct was rigged.

Don't know if you track the volatility instruments.



This was so 'unexpected' by participants, that almost 20-1 was returned on a put bought at 3:45 pm today.



Might have even been more than that .



The exact reason for a straight up 100 pointer .... I've seen that before, many times in fact. Forced covering , scared shorts, or some booking big gains on large holdings, , pinheads hoping for a crash at the bell, and got the opposite.

In the old days traders looked to the “Glamour’s” for a sign of a rally.

FB and TXN telegraphed this late day move early in the morning and especially late in the day.

"Fun how numbers always seem to work out in the markets."
