Now, that would be a shocker to myth: what if our markets are not PPT futures supported and actually are free markets? It's just the options crap programmed by the same quants, fired by some street firms, hired by other? I mean, how on Earth would highly manipulated gold be allowed to trade at 1K? <g> That market is not calm now, so expect anything, including a crash, but the risk is to the upside <g> Liquidity is a key element to lack of volatility, and high volatility is present.
