Trump's on the tube.
He's not gonna spook the market at 3PM on a Friday.
Get long, I bet it runs after a headfake down.

If was gonna say something WS wouldn't like, he'd have waited till 4PM.

wait for 2987

edit: didnt make it.

Fantastic call VZ.

Psychology/intuition goes a long ways in this game

I am more and more convinced that these spikes are market manipulations. Each time it happens volume is low just before it happens and then volume goes 20 times higher. When it started we went down almost 10 points in 10 seconds (volume 7600 contracts) and the next 10 seconds up 7 points.

Here we go again. Volume goes up x5. Big drop and back up like a rocket.

you’re brave going long in this chop

Expanding wedge with Trump news conference was going to sling shot ES

There's a lot of talk about how fast a market sells off, but damn, we got some fast and violent rallies too.

While there's always action both ways these days, I'm generally always more nervous staying in a short than staying in a long.

I cannot find the posting you are reacting on. Must be one of the many people that I blocked.
I suggest you all should do the same. Ignoring these people is horrible for them as that's the only thing they don't want: to be ignored.
They want to be admired. People should stroke their ego.

It was
destriero . I don't think I stroked his ego.

Great call! I hope you traded it.

Too wild for me, so only watching.

I didn't, I was already done for the day with my meager $250. But I actually came back and logged on to tell you guys this. Like I said, no way he'd spook the market at 3PM on Friday.

Well, he's spooked the markets before, but that there was a decent clue for todays outcome.

I assume Trump is a bit more stressed now than earlier this year with regards to the upcoming election, so most likely we should expect him to talk up the markets as much as he possibly can moving forward from here.
