Index futures up huge overnight

Quote from brownsfan019:

mini - you have become one bitter trader recently, which is a recipe for disaster.

The markets are not 'manipulated' against you or anyone else here. You do not trade enough size to even get on anyone's radar screen.

Stop bitching and either learn to trade these markets or take your money to the local bank and plop it in an insured CD. With a CD, there's no 'manipulation' going on there - fixed rate with FDIC insurance!

Markets are manipulated the sooner you come to terms with that the better trader you will be.

The markets are designed to keep you off balance at all times and separate you from your money. Only time and experience are you allies, your just a speck of and on a beach.
 
<i>"Markets are manipulated the sooner you come to terms with that the better trader you will be."</i>

Of course they are... when has that ever changed? Who here thinks the markets exist for easy facilitation or wresting profits from?

Markets exist to provide liquidity... the majority of traders serve such liquidity. The purpose of financial markets is to take money from investors and traders, not give it to them.

Also, the ym futures are incidental to es futures. There is no singular manipulation of Dow futures here, just tagging along with its much bigger brother for the premarket ride.
 
my emini the is market designed to keep one off balance? everyone and there brother bought every dip the last 5 days and won every single time. we've had 2- 30 pt plys es rallies and 3 or 4 10-15 pt rallies. outside last tuesday we've not gone straight down and had more rallies than falls. its ironic as heck but the longs have done better than the shorts the last week

Yes I can see that, what pisses me off is I missed this 75 point run that happened as I slept.

Had you known this was a repeatable market event...

Would you have slept in or got up early to exploit it???

June futures contract up 100 points over March in the Dow mini. This is such a rigged market.

What a pure mommas boy you are..who gives a feck if the market is rigged, join the fray, trade it up, trade it down, you gimp!
 
If you live in North America you can't sleep in these high vol periods -- far too much action overnight. With that being said I slept early yesterday and missed everything !!!!!!!

Gotta move to London ASAP.
 
mini, I think Elder is right , the scum keeps looking for new prey to come in there fish tank to steal there money . hang in there.

Ah, maaannn.......where's the evil laugh?.........

:cool:
 
What's the point in complaining about "rigged markets" over and over again?

Personally I don't see anything unusual in markets last days and they're absolutely not harder to trade than usually.

So maybe rather than sitting and grumbling it would be better to look at charts more often and as Mark said try to notice repeatable patterns in market's behaviour and exploit them?
