Hhahhaahh.... You are sooooo effing wrong there. But whatever. Yes you can play semantics and find individual cases... but the tide moves all ships.
You don't think astute players look at the ENTIRE market in the term of indexes?! And yes the indexes are a basket of a few. But who cares.... that's the game-board. Duh.

Either way, to think this announcement today was some kind of surprise that all the sudden shocked the whales to where they wanted to get out, ... is laughable. Christ almighty....you have volumes to learn about this game. Your mindset of "option players, and stock players, and index players".... dude.... you have to learn to read them all if you wanna win.
Why do you pigeon hole yourself like that. Is odd.

Most people are wrong. Trading is very hard. I only do it part time at night. If any of you want a full time job during the day fixing computers, we are hiring new field techs around the world. Just pm me with your experience and make sure you let them know I referred you. Let me know if you get hired and I will share some of my referral bonus with you.

If you are in the United States, you need a green card, a car, be able to pass drug tests even if you live in a state where it's legal.

It is not naivety. It is experience in watching the indices. I am still honing my senses on how the overall market reacts to fundamental news, and I can tell you with all my heart...

Friday's huge drop was because of the Omicron announcement. The whole "light volume low-liquidity" argument is old. Whatever. Algos, dude.

Monday's rise was because the South African doctor who discovered the thing said the cases he encountered were mild at worst.

Tuesday's drop was the bombshell from Powell when he blew everyone away by losing the term "transitory inflation" and faster tapering, along with Moderna saying "Oh gee, maybe our vaccine is not all that."

Today's drop coincided directly with Fauci's announcement of the first Omicron case in the US. Dude, just look at your index charts and line it all up!

You and Stoney have a fucking awesome rapport on the individual movers in the market in the GBA thread. I love it. But how an individual stock moves is not the same as an index move.

Here's what happens---Markets that are already weak can react negatively to even minor news, or no news at all. The overall bias in this market was bearish and was for some time, not just today.

I don't buy that for 1 minute, and I would not sell it for 2. Were it not for the Omicron news on Friday, the markets would be in a much different place today. I SAW it in my head! I have been honing those skills!

Omicron was a black swan, man.

I will fund additional capital tomorrow, ride it out. The worst can happen is to be liquidated. I can see easily 100-200 points up more likely than down by the year end. It is bonus time and no one wants to get nothing.

The query marks were for not understanding how you got long at 4595 when the pricing was below 4550.

This is incorrect. Markets were already weakened prior to any negative news.
