Hi Hal, Others ....
I was going to comment earlier that the price action at 10:30 was unusual. First time that I can recall that there was not a sizable wild swing in both directions for a minute or two before settling down in what ever direction price was going to wind up.
THEN later, looking at intraday 1 min chart price came right back down an hour or so later.
I have run across the terms "bull trap, bear trap" at various times but am curious here. I have no idea just "who" and how someone with deep enough pockets could force the market down triggering stops along the way as this chart certainly appears.
Would appreciate any feedback !!!!
Thanks, Lee
