Even so, I'm glad I was flat when AG pulled that hat trick on the 15th. One guy on the Futures Thread figured that a "normal" short position would have lost about 50 to 75 thousand bucks in less than 5 minutes.

But the longer term effect of that maneuver seems to have resulted in a trendless market. This market is about as easy to trade, these past few days, as pushing on a wet noodle to steal a phrase.
