nothing carved in stone but often when we meet res at exp week or before,they hold it up til millions of puts go out worthless,meanwhile,turning their longs into shorts then correct,a fact without stats,to some traders is an opinionQuote from rroverx:
sold a a big contract's worth 1690
Hilarity ensues, maybe they can get 1700 in the next few mins....
Short 10. Not that comfortable with that overnight margin but I think this will be good come premarket.

Yes sir, Ive noticed the same over the years.
Wow 1694.25 tonight. 1553-1694 in 5 weeks.Whats so ironic is even if we crashed in next few months no short will get more than a very little of it simply because holding most shorts the last 4 yrs more than a week at the longest has been a disaster. Shorts are all little mice in a wheel being laughed at right now
rrox i'm not looking to make 5 pts and give back 3 and on and on. i'm looking to hold shorts for 200-300 pts down and i still see nothing that tops in. Outside don miller i've yet to meet one trader in 30 yrs that makes a living in futures alone. Most of the time i use futures for longer term holds as stks are my bread and butter
