Looking at the last week at tradegate, germany:

I don´t know if the chart can be imported here, thus i also use it as my avatar. Have look there.

Every morning we´re in a good mood, SP is climbing a little bit. Later every day -when overseas trading starts- all is gone, SP crashes. This can have two meanings:

1. We germans are dumb and blind. Truth and intelligence lives overseas.

2. Someone over there sells vey hard, everyday and everyday and everyday a certain part.

As a german fellow I prefer Nr. 2.

And it confirms all your posts about Pinetree. If you´re also right in telling me that this situation is ending right now, it will be an interesting next week. Whatsoever: This makes me sure its not about normal market, it´s about abnormal doings. I just have to wait for normality to come back.

This is why I will keep calm, lean back and enjoy my weekend.

So long...
