yeah in terms of POINTS of future markets its' very volatile..and margin requirements should be a lot more for ES and NQ futures. and STOPS in all trades in this illiquid market.
It's still in the early innings. Since you were around back then, look at the energy names breaking beneath their 2008-09 lows. Big tech stocks miles away from support. It's a bit surreal.
Yup energy is as hated as the internet stocks were in 2001-2002 when you could have bought PCLN AMZN etc in the single digits How did that work out?
lots of green kids on the site. honestly I am yawning at all this.. first of all the vola isn't THAT great... secondly as I have said repeatedly this is all part of my boys plan, nothing surprising.
Don't know why traders cannot figure it out. Hedge Fund CEOs, brokers, banks, etc. (sharks), you retail trader (sardine). Like Clint Eastwood said in one of his dirty Harry movies, "A man has got to know his limitations." If you still have not figured out that you are a sardine swimming in an ocean of sharks, you are chum. Know your place in the food chain and know what the sharks are doing then, you will be safe and be able to feed on the bits of food they leave for you.
none of these moves are out of the ordinary - like this morning futs another 3% down - them boys collecting chips. if this nothing burger is so effective, you think them boys are gonna just let the rebound happen right now? almost 2 months away from the MAGA earnings? so 0.6% death rate, just another flu, no? - yes a bit more severe than a regular flu? I just got some cash in the accounts - no brainer buy at the open. folks if you look at this as just a game my boys play, nothing is surprising... you become one of THEM.... you hunt for the Sardines with them, you become one of the sharks. the only thing you don't have, is a seat at their secret meeting to decide when the hunting season starts.... but that's ok, the hunting season usually lasts for A WHILE.
