Fascinating sentiment.

It was just his passive-aggressive way of disagreeing with the substance of the post.

We do get a ton of "rallies" even on days the market pukes into the close. ES hit 2500, NQ 7600 (then dropped 700 pts). The deadliest aspect of a bear market is evidenced by some of the guys who come on here and call the bottom an hour or two after the fact (since it will look just like...

Might I suggest a run for Congress? Then you can't have perfectly timed trades as well.

So I'm not the only one. The majority of his posts read like Mad Libs, but I sense there is some insight if you can decode.

He'll tell you the bottom after the SPX has rallied 200-300 points. The dude's a legend.

You're alright in my book. Heck, you posted the analog I had been silently pondering in the months prior to the collapse (I actually was much more keen on it last year, then the market went haywire in Jan/Feb. Tesla, etc...) The reaction you received was a strong tell.

Interesting. If you did some sleuthing here, you'd find the same patterns. A lot of the vocal types that rode it higher go silent, disappear. I still remember how many longtime posters on this site disappeared around 08-09. Not to imply they all blew their accounts. Some did, some just...

Care to share a few of the other forums. Always interesting to read the stories.

It can and does happen when implied vols drop significantly.

ES futs options aren't bad today.

You seem to have a good handle on things. I remember you were rightly bullish some years back (maybe even before or during the 2016 breakout higher).

Not in disagreement, I'm just saying that perhaps the O.P. is at a disadvantage either buying or selling the options given the vol levels. (hence the bid/ask spreads). That said back in 2000 when there was a ton more liquidity I could trade options with tight spreads (even during the NDX...

Pick your fights elsewhere. I'm just making an observation.

Every Friday since this started market gets mega bid into the close. Orange Man loves the late Friday presser

The math doesn't work with UWT at this point. That things a zombie.

Bid/offer spreads, like the O.P. said.

"Buy signals" the whole way down.

Pretty dysfunctional IMO, probably going to get much more so going forward.
