Rigged to perfection. The only thing that gets the markets up is fed jaw boning. Fisher said two weeks ago a hike was coming. Now he says they may wait for inflation to rise hahah that will never happen. They look like hucksters and carnival barkers.

Exactly...but this has been going on for more than a decade...It's just that now the markets are super thinned out, HFT algo's chasing the markets higher and it's just too damn easy to gap this stuff up 1.00% and let the bid sitters do the rest...I still think this is a longer term distribution, but it's a remarkably controlled decline and let's face it...if this thing started cascading lower like it did back in 2008, the consequences would be that much worse...so just a rolling chop lower with massive squeezes interspersed is exactly what the Fed is after...

That's how you play the "rolling chop" or you just wait for the appropriate volatility index (vix, vxn, rvx) to regress back to its support level and you rinse/repeat...but you have to be extremely quick on the trigger closing out shorts...you only get minutes sometimes whereas you can have hours/days to close out longs...

Option expiration weeks are always up weeks. They drag out what ever is necessary to jam it higher. Won't be surprised if they headline Greece like its BREAKING NEWS...GREECE GET LOAN....

The only way to get the market up is overnight in the futures. This week will be full of GAPS higher.

Once again, this week is not opt exp
