When I posted the alternate scenario at 3:42pm eastern the market was selling off
nicely, and all short positions entered after 12pm eastern were profitable. Within 10
minutes of the posting, the market rallied nearly 4 points in a straight up fashion.


Now I'm not gonna flatter the Kahuna thread by saying there was a direct
correlation, but when that harsh rally began at 3:43pm and pinned the S&P fut.
back above 1119 for nearly the rest of the day, without letting the progression of
down waves that had begun finish, I begin to wonder if my concern was not based
in a small degree of reality. Maybe someone else can give another rational
explanation, I dunno.


I think this is coincidence david...

The S&P futures pit is a madhouse......

buy/sell programs can cause havoc...

it can turn on a dime....a la last Monday...remember how sharply it turned starting right before the close
