Quote from Bitstream:
ystdy major insider buying.... some doodparked @1300 with his 2000 lots offering got lifted in an instant...infact placing size on the ask was like pouring water in da sand. not to mention that 90% of trades went off @offer; size on each tick consumed with hunger.
I think the financials performed very strongly today even when ES was deep in the red was a clue. GS, MS, C were all pushing to go higher.
