Jeff, it's VERY important to realize that MMs have exactly the same purpose as we do here ... profit from large up/down moves due to induced high volatility ... that's why we trade ndx, sox, etc. ... high volatility is the hallmark of these indexes and even spx/dow lately ... they also make it easier for us by inducing large moves around options ex and eom ... surely we cannot predict all their moves ... but neither can they ... point is, if they didn't induce volatility no one would make any money trading ... and the good news is ... it's gonna be like this for years and years as there won't be any new secular bull market anytime soon ... in fact, avoiding japan-like situation would be a major success and i'm not optimistic here either ... so, let's take MMs games with a grain of salt ... no, let's thank them actually for allowing us to make money trading volatility
