Some author suggested it as a "bullet" trade (never heard that one before). Go long an enormous position in a downtrend. Wait until the absolute weakest point and then put a killshot on the Qubes by dumping the 20mm thereby trashing the Qubes and making a killing on the puts.

Sounds a bit dodgy to me for a play valued in the 100's of millions.

yes, that would stand to reason. from what i've read also recently, all the recent leaps in the nasdaq ttrust have been going off in the spread, so it's very hard to ascertain what the exact intentions are...only that it's big players at work.

there's some pretty bullish historical precedent shaping up now based the compelling evidence of institutional participation that seems to be ticking up.

I just received an original 1st edition of Bradley's book "Stock Market Prediction" today in the mail circa 1948... i felt like Indiana Jones unwrapping it<g> I'm sure it's going to help understand the model. already from my initial browsing I can tell how revelatory this guys work is...amazing stuff
