Someone on another board reminded me of this chart I've had buried for awhile.... I guess the jaws start closing when it's hungry.
Charting with a sense of humor... I like that.
Well, charts are visual... and the visual this gives me (with your analogy)... looks like the jaws of a Tyrannosaurus rex.

You know, I've been watching the markets for well over 20 years, so I consider myself reasonably "attuned". This current market is giving off a lot of mixed signals, and has been giving "less than desirable" signals for many years. Without getting into a long-winded explanation of why I think that is so, suffice it to say, that it is no surprise that opinions are mixed.
But if one has a trading plan and discipline, then emotion, especially hurtful or resentful, emotions should take no part in the discussion.
If I were "loaded up" one way or the other right now, I can tell you I'd be a nervous wreck. I'd be sleeping poorly, snappy with friends and family, etc. And if I felt myself "testy" hopefully that would help me in my assessment of my trading plan.
So, those of us who read the posts should not be bashing those whose postions we disagree with. And those of us who are making money shouldn't be bragging and those who are struggling should be able to read posts and learn.
We are all here for the same purpose. To share trading ideas and learn. Let's let it happen.

That was beautiful. Exactly. I suggest some of those that are going "out of their way to push buttons" take a day off from the board.. or those under pressure do the same too.
I can guarantee you that people will be friendly again when they're on the same side of the trade later on
