the stop hunt you're looking at right now is a crime in progress. i hope the police and the FBI starting checking around brokerages.

Well I see it this way, all the assets that refused to fall are the ones hit the hardest. Maybe everything that glitters isn't gold. Poor economic data, S&P futures down almost 40 points. Maybe the markets are touching a bit of reality.
When the facts change I change my mind, what do you do sir

a little naive

the move is real money over a significant distance and therefore way bigger than a stop hunt

This smells like a major liquidation of a hedge fund(s), definitely not some non-existent stop hunt. market dynamics in its purest form; the panic move towards the exits...

I guess it, too, is perception. Do I think it happens? Sure. Is it the real reason for every sellof? Hell no. Can people sell because they simply do not seem the same value? Gold has been up for 11 straight years. Yen pairs have been up 1,000-1,2000 pips with no meaningful correction.

Markets up on the hope of recovering economies. Shit ain't recovering like they thought; S&P up 30% on hopes and dreams. Time to trim off the top. That's how it works.

Fading can be dicey. Tight SL always, more so against momentum.

the first part is easy to understand. i see no conspiracy there. i'm talking about what happened AFTER 1430 est. the timing is just way way too much of a coincidence.... no terrorist acts of any real visibility for months in this country... and then within a key time frame of minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!

i don't buy the idea that there's no connection.

My Long @ 68 exited this morning +13

Existing Short @ 57 I took this morning is now +29

Looking to bail on this short if the RSI3 (10M) goes +50 or PA goes above 5 SMA (10M)

See why I dont use SL and instead exercise patience while trading smaller than rational...

The MM pyramid always pays if you play it right
Trade smaller than rational because the market is irrational...

my point is the accuracy of the timing. just too much to be coincidence.

An excuse to justified losses. This selloff was a perfect opportunity to make money.
