Going to be hard for market to recapture that level, and it's not going to make it easy on either side. Bulls would have wanted to hold consolidation closer to that level.Womp womp.

Ooops.I was on the road all day and around lunchtime see the Nasdaq up 2% and thinking wow sort of a shocker. Then I get home and see red. lol.
Anyways, I wasn't feeling great about the market with Biden speaking and me being out of office so only put in a couple of orders and 1 hit. Grabbed AMZN at $2675
its was $108m options play from what I read. Not so small potatoes.What did they do to piss off the feds? Seems like small potatoes all things considered.
Shrug. What ya gonna do. Up over 2% in the pre-market. My guess is this gets bought off at some point.Ooops.

WSJ News Exclusive | Amazon Flagged to Justice Department for Possible Criminal Obstruction of Congress

My thought is that markets are pricing in that due to "Ukraine" the Fed cant raise rates and they will try to just blame inflation on Putin and tell us its all his fault and we need to "live with it" for now.Sold my sqqq shares at close yesterday and wake up to see this blatant manipulation.
To go from +7% to -7% with only futures trading... More than likely it'll get gap filled or worse but that's some crazy shit!
It's really amusing to see people come up with their own reasons to justify moves in the market, the volatility is just insane with 10-20% swings intraday people are going to get blown the fuck out playing options.

You arent wrong. The challenge is trading on sentiment can eventually bite you in the ass. And while I am down on my technical purchases, time is on my side with a long horizon.You guys are probably right but my gut feeling is there's been heavy call ratios on everything compared to puts and they have been getting absolutely destroyed. A ton of money is being put to work to prevent that support from breaking.
Market rebellion puts out a list of options volume %s and it's been heavy heavy calls, especially apple.
I tried to trade logically with current events and basic economics but that just didn't seem to ever work, i haven't had a red day yet since just giving up on logic and day trading the "sentiment" for lack of a better word.
All i see now is desperation for saving the market, they try every day and it just doesn't hold, too much negative shit and for good reason. I still think we can have huge upside but it isn't right now. There's always some new fucking end of the world event lately.
It's all so tiresome, i really envy those of you who can just buy shit at support and not worry about it. My brother tried me the same shit but my reply is had i bought and held anything in the past year I'd be down pretty badly, which doesn't really help.
