if i pick up 20 points on a day trade in nq i am pretty damn happy with that! on 5 positons you just rocked a 100 points in the nq in 15 minutes a typical full days range
but will be taking some of quickly once gain we are seeing the market act like ti does when being ttoally manipulated down and up. not a compalint just a realization that the zones of excess are much larger than ever before due to low liquidity to buy or sell. you want it you will need to pay up if you want out you will need to pay down!! this is what happens when you give middle men so much control power and speed when it is not necessary. they all battle for ticks and pennies costing all of us in the long run! by that i mean 401k and other expenses. it also allows an instantaneous amount of liquidity to be deployed and taken out in an instant which is not good because it does not allow for any fundamental value what so ever. the truth of the matter is strictly are "THEY" buying marking up the bids and offers or are "THEY" selling marking down bids and offers and that is all it really is anymore. finally getting some selling which is just intraday profit taking thats all it is
