No, nothing at all. In fact, I've decided that since I returned to this site, it's nothing more than a bunch of people wanting to start arguments, so I bid this place farewell. Take care.

Controlled demolition continues unabated.

True, not "always".

Classic case of projection.

Yes, imagine...but it never happens that way. There is always one heavily weighted stock that is goosed higher which keeps things from imploding. Been that way for a long, long time. Some might argue that it's a nice diversion so that the herd is more likely to have their pockets picked.

Honestly man, not looking for advice.

Even though anything is possible tomorrow, this after hours is worse than post AMZN earnings (for longs). Plus the hard break lower in March happened the night following FOMC announcement. The bigger problem is that each index is in its own little world and its been that way for quite awhile...

My main point was that consumers opinion on where prices are likely headed is obviously a function of what has happened in the recent past. Most people are subject to recency bias and if they see stocks whipping around up/down a few percent every day for a few months then they will obviously...

Friday, April 21 - Sunday/Monday, April 24, 2017 is a good example of that scenario. It eventually closed the "gap" on May 19, 2017, but ran roughly 50 pts higher before reversing.

If there is no trading taking place in futures and prices open higher or lower than the previous Friday's price, how can there NOT be a gap in the futures? Are we playing word games now? And your comparison to an intra-day NG 100 tick spike is still not apropos since prices are trading thru...
