Are US markets like oil,index, and commodity markets rigged

Quote from brokenmarkets:

ES and index futures and oil and forex looks rigged?

Only when you trade against the trend they look rigged. When you win you think you are smart and the markets are just doing what they are supposed to:)

Too funny, hearing some of you pathetic wannabee traders claiming rigged markets. Why don't you just admit that you can't trade for sh*t. Go get a job at Mc Donalds and stop whining like lil bitches...

why not to look into bigger picture
if markets were not rigged Goldman and JPM would be bankrupts

and their place would be taken by someone else
and it could be you or me

instead you're happy with your buy and hold unrealized gain
 
Quote from Maverick74:

How exactly is the market rigged? Over the last 12 years the S&P is down. Basically in one big trading range. Please walk me through your logic if there is any.

Market is up more than 100% in less than 2 years, every correction is met by the government intervention
as president administration full of wall streets representatives they know ahead of the market when this intervention occur

ordinary market participants left guessing
now clear?

Because the bigger picture doesn't pay you shit. Buying high and selling higher does pay. It's called trading. Most guys on ET think like to think they are economists or analysts. If you want to be one, go get a job as one, don't trade. They are completely different professions.

As Dennis Gartman likes to say, when price moves from the lower left to the upper right, you buy! I can't make it any more simple then that for you.
