I would add that reading those charts and volume, as well as S/R and trading WITH the trend on breaks is as good a way to trade with the movers. I look for exhaustion on big moves and enter again in that direction each day later in the session.... about :40 after the open (9:40 EST) is a great time to watch up to that 10am hour.....and later after the bond desks close...of course, it's not all about time...but there are elements of that each week 2 to 3 days...otherwise, price action is our friend.dcatlowpjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03568127255552643343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12333088.post-9767263263807542052009-08-19T14:51:53.108-04:002009-08-19T14:51:53.108-04:00To Kishor:

However, has there been a time when the guys with the largest bank account DIDN’T move markets? I believe this to be true in the tube sock market as it is in the stock market or any other market.<br /><br />I would venture to say that successful traders trade WITH the big boys. Let’s assume that whoever the MMs are decide to leave. Who will provide the volatility then? I, for one, would not want to trade a market that moves in a 3 point range. <br /><br />I am afraid there is a conflict of interest in the current.<br /><br />Best of luck.mvwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15880711929145941170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12333088.post-61948333256386485472009-08-19T14:51:04.038-04:002009-08-19T14:51:04.038-04:00Carl,

The "devils" also account for over 70% of trading volume and most of it is not as an agent but for their own accounts.<br /><br />Only devils can make $100 million dollars in trading profits per day through unfair means. And they can that only through manipulations and not through normal forces of supply and demand in a free and open market.<br /><br />It will be intellectually dishonest to ignore such a powerful force that is affecting the current market.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12333088.post-70414503225343823912009-08-19T13:05:23.836-04:002009-08-19T13:05:23.836-04:00I think that the intentions and positions of any &...I think that the intentions and positions of any "market manipulators" can be read from the market's own action. <br /><br /><br />Subscribing to any "devil" theory of market movements is intellectually disabling and closes one's eyes to what is actually happening.Carl Futiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01624989905417650273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12333088.post-73839876410061098382009-08-19T12:28:56.246-04:002009-08-19T12:28:56.246-04:00Carl, it appears that just as my comment number 2 ...Carl, it appears that just as my comment number 2 above was getting posted, another helicopter load of money to GS, Goverment Sucks, was already on the way from Uncle Ben of the FED.<br /><br />We have just witnessed a huge amount of buying by program trading, at very high volume per tick, that carried ES from 986 to 996 within minutes.

However, I do believe that we have more downside to go before turning up again.<br /><br />When the market was ramping up to 1016, the value of the accumulated TICK was in a downtrend. To me, it implies that program trading was distributing. <br /><br />Now that the market has fallen a bit, even desperate attempts by program trading, with a strongly up-sloping accumulated TICK, is not having too much effect on price. In other words, the market does not want to go up even though FED is throwing a lot of money at it. We have more downside to go.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12333088.post-49227787888791794192009-08-19T11:06:16.451-04:002009-08-19T11:06:16.451-04:00Carl...nice tell on Volume.
