    i can observe the market and figure out the repeating patterns like these premarket and afterhours moves for last 6 months
    i ve been watching those way before all the youtubers started talking about it(confirming my observation)

    but thats where im stuck

    what is driving all those moves outside of normal trading hours?
    is that the new strategy of chatroom pumpers?becasue they can hide more data when market is closed?

    There is less liquidity than in the regular session. More likely professional traders recognize the opportunities in pre and post sessions where the spread between bid and ask are wider than in the regular session.

    y ask y? what does it matter if i told you a blue monkey was loose at goldman's hitting keyboards after hours and it was found to be the cleaning crews pet.

    there now that you know why the spikes happened what you going to do about it willis?

    information other than price is shit.

    so professional traders just look at charts all day without understanding the mechanics of market or why the move is happening?
    Because with that logic, we shouldnt look at news or reports or any other documents that can potentially cause market to move in certain direction right?

    ET recently got rid of that feature. You can ignore someone but you can't ban someone from seeing your posts. Now fools with their silly games of turning blocks on and off can no longer stop people from seeing a thread in its entirety.

    Well then they can troll someone else.
    There is no need for me to be on a forum full of trash where mods do nothing about it
