Re: Market Manipulation.. It's pretty obvious to most that market manipulation exists, and the media plays a key puppet role, hence momentum traders buy or sell based on news (or trading cues).. I have a Hauppage Digital TV card in my PC, and wouldn't think of trading without CNBC.. I agree with you that this inflation scenario has been abused, and the only power the Fed has at his disposal to fight irrational exhuberance is this attempt to tighten the money supply.. I also think the Fed's constant abuse of this technique will lead to it's ineffectiveness.. >><<

<<In that pursuit a network was established that could/can manipulate the markets...>>> You hit the nail head. But repeat offenders leave their marks which a neural network trained along the line of LG "Think like a criminal" can not escape. daytrader.cc daytrader.cc Regards, ED

Chief...I'd scale back on the conspiracy theory, but not much. Otherwise I agree wi the premise that once again the institutions that control the investing capital flow are sitting on the side lines regaining the power they sought to capture and hold with the LTC debacle. In short I agree. Question is, if you are right how does investing strategy change now that the "big guys" are in position to take any momentum players instead of being drawn in by them.

CHIEF - a very interesting discussion. I don't think they will give up the control again either. I just hope they straighten out the IMF and World Bank in the process. The key to making this work over time will be keeping the budget balanced and thus, the dollar strong. IMHO

the Chief: Some how I missed this post this AM. It happens...<g> Prior to this point, no collective "collusion" was possible and any attempt prior to LTC would have resulted in one or more groups walking away from the table, becuase no one would have wanted to give this much power up to "Uncle Sam". Collusion and manipulation was going on long before the LTC debacle. After Richard Ney opened my eyes, I began to developed my investment system and strategies around this understanding back in the mid eighties..."Think Like A Criminal"...<gg> Regards, LG
