Yes.. The market is where the big boys play.... they control the game.. If we want to play their game we have to try to read their plays and try to predict what they are about to do... Of course you would know that.

The sheep punters don't read between the lines. They follow the masses to their peril and become a casualty..

How do you now what the big boys are going to do? That's the puzzle I love putting together. Research research research.

This is my opinion only, not advice, please do your own research.
