Yes, I stopped trading spoos, and that happened a while ago. Apart from occasional breakdowns, the US market is entirely manipulated.

Here they are, this is the PPT. I don't feel like a terminator. Right now they are completely in charge, since libor spread indicates liquidity is plentiful and the Fed is pushing and pushing it in (they feed off of it and push the market HIGHER, it's AUTOMATIC and NOT earnings-dependent). The US stock market starts trading like a market only when liquidity evaporates. It's invincible now. The darn robots are holding it. This is basic derivatives Ponzi market dynamics. When liquidity evaporates, the robots short circuit and we have a systemic meltdown. Prepare for wash, rinse, repeat in the coming years - err, more meltdowns and mysterious inflationary recoveries. Overall, waves of deflation and inflation. A meltdown won't happen until the Fed starts fighting (hyper)inflation it created, or the dollar starts slip sliding away quickly, which is about to happen. No, not the Fed fighting inflation, the dollar slip sliding away. minyanville.com Natural gas fell well below its natural value, or so I think, which represents an opportunity. So, I am watching it, and writing some poots with spare cash and nothing else to do... <G>
