Hello all, I have no idea what exactly is going on here, but something is wrong. There is only very little volume in the futures, I cant get any quotes for my stocks. I want to anal lyze this now more in detail, I mean, I gave the market more than one hour now to start, but nothing happens. I have to really check this now, what is going on, but maybe some of you have some good sources and some information advantage. I dont want to think too negative, but I am almost sure this has something to do with the crisis in Europe. Russia, the Ukraine... I think something big is about to happen. Yes, we are traders and want to earn money from the markets. But in times like this, we also have to stick together and help each other. So I hope that we can collect as much info as possible. I will also try to find out more, I will let you all know if I get some good information. CALLumbus
You haven't heard? Today it becomes official no-one is allowed to (or even attempt to) make a profit anymore. We now must put forth our mental and physical labor for the the "good of all humanity." Aren't you excited!!!
Yeah guys, thats great, your are joking about this and giving stupid comments, while the world might be sliding into some serious crisis... I dont want to judge you, I have no time, I must anal lyze the situation and in the meantime wait for some serious, helpful input here. CALLumbus
True indeed. The best info I could gather is that it has finally been realized the North Korean model is the way to go. The people are so happy and fulfilled that they don't even need no stinkin' lights for night time. They don't need much food either. It's utopia! Also... from what I understand... there may be some residual attempts at market participation throughout June, but by some estimations... It should finally die off in about 5 weeks or so... perhaps around July 3rd or 4th. Anyone else out there with some info... we do need to clarify this situation stat!
Actually a great way to spend the holiday is analyzing why there is no volume and the stocks aren't trading. When you find out let us know. I have a prediction though, i bet the same thing happens July 4th too! FYI http://www.thestreet.com/stock-market-news/11771386/market-holidays-2014.html
Yeah, tbaylx, great, another smartass troll... You are not helping here !! Not me, and not the other helpless traders that dont know what is going on and that maybe still have positions !!!! You think I am an idiot that I dont know that 4th July is a holiday ??! But that does not help me man !! The question is, what is wrong TODAY !! You get that ? What is happening to the markets, why is everything halted !?! Damnit, I have to calm down. Sorry man, I know you tried to play the funny joker here, but until we have not found out what is happening here, I think I wont be in the mood for funny jokes. :-(
Funny thing is there is no difference between the holidays and when market is open. Still dead either way.
Q: How do 99% of the traders on ET know that the market is closed due to holidays? A: Their trading accounts are not in a free fall.
