FOMC "Psycho on Crack" Day

RobotTrader's picture




Every FOMC day is the same.  Stocks flatline in the morning doing nothing, then suddenly wild gyrations as traders frantically try to parse the "words" spewed forth from The Beard. Billions of eyeballs watching the 1-min. chart of the Euro, and billions of anxious fingers rattling the F11 and F12 keys.  Meanwhile, other individual stocks getting dunked or skyrocketed on OpEx plays exaggerates the action.  Kind of like being on a date with some psycho chick on crack.

Check out the intraday chart of the SPY, Euro, or Gold, its it looks like the sine wave of The Outer Limits....

 

Note, however, some stocks getting short squeezed are impervious to the Fed words today.  Like some of Goldman's largest clients who were piledriving short positions on a few homebuilders...

And check out the Biotechs.  Some stocks are getting bottlerocketed:

And others are getting pole-axed..

Why the divergence??  Its all about vaporizing puts and calls on specific stocks prior to options expiration.

...............

 

Anybody catch Melissa Lee lately??

What's up with the crooked eyes and the mouth that droops to one side?

 

Anybody see a resemblance?

 

Heh, perhaps we can work on a makeover.

How does this look??  Terrible face, but what a body....

 

Maybe a more drastic makeover is in order.

Something like this:

 

LOL.....

OT: Remember when the US let Hussein commit all sorts of evil *until* he started selling oil in euro instead of dollars? Oh boy, we were up his ass in a hot minute. Well, Mission Accomplished: Arab petro powers are moving to displace the dollar itself with their own currency to price oil.

Blame it on Time's Man Of The Year.

Oh, stuff it...this is like bugging the boys locker room, get to hear what they say without worrying about getting busted. What I love about this site is the range these guys have, soaring words to almost soft porn. Never a dull moment. As a woman with 4 brothers, I don't even blink. I would agree with the guys the last model was something else, almost luminous. Don't read anything into the handle, that's what you get with brothers.

Today is Melissa's turn, that's all. Carry on Robo.

I agree. That post of Michelle cheapened the entire blog. Lucky for us the picture of the hottie with the fantasticly bustling fun bags more than made up for it.

All in a day's Robo post I suppose.

There are two kinds of people in this world, Robo. There are bullies and there are nerds. And there are hot Asian chicks. They'll do what you want. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. You better believe it, buddy. They will do what you want because they know, they know what you want. Oh, oh, oh, don't be afraid. Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you. I won't hurt you. Me big American man.

Especially if you're paying in gold. You can't blame 'em for astuteness. Their ancient, wise society will make our #1ness look pretty flacid pretty soon. Like the effect of a night's worth of Jack Daniel's at 4am.

that fool says to buy everything before earnings - riskiest trade around, and he suggests it to the sheeple who are dumb enough to listen to his show.

that being said, i am getting ready to short some stocks heading into earnings...
