Yep, the operators ran the stops before piling in.  I remember in the 2009 bear market they would do that at 2PM-2:50PM central and every time without fail, the market would gap lower for cash traders.  So I remember its signature well.  Its also the reason I switched from trading ETFs to futures.giveup.gif

bears gettin' smoked...

 

If Dow takes out 24K, now that it has reclaimed 23700, will get even worse...

There are no bears. It always looks most bullish before downturn. QID average volume 9m vs 2m; SH average 24m vs 4

1 dip under on a news story is allowable....2 is a different story.

 

Bulls may have just coughed up the ball...

Trouble is few seem to ever want to run things up with a buy program (like scads of 100 share blocks), whereas many seem to do this on the downside with sell blocks. Look at the market without many of these programs, as it was yesterday. Only fury was the fair amount of day traders exiting at close as we have a lot in this environment.
