Silber? Options-Verfall-Manipulationen im grossen Stil: Das Banditen-Syndikat!
-->aus dem Forum von Richard Russel, DowTheoryLetter:
"I have been a trader and money manager for 23 years, at times with some of the largest hedge funds managing $100s of millions in the futures markets for them. Take a look at the daily May SI (silver) chart and you will notice that the BIG MOVE started on 2/2 at 5.92. I suspect very strongly that a HUGE number of May calls were bought in Feb., March, and April on the run up to the recent highs at 8.50. These calls were SOLD by the PROFESSIONALS who were taking huge losses as the market went parabolic.
IN TYPICAL FASHION, THEY (THE PROFESSIONALS) HAD TO CRUSH THE MARKET TO RENDER ALL THOSE CALLS WORTHLESS BY THE EXPIRATION OF THE MAY OPTIONS NEXT TUESDAY, 4/27 AND IT JUST GOES TO SHOW YOU HOW POWERFUL THEY STILL ARE THAT THEY CAN ENGINEER THIS, UNDOUBTEDLY WITH THE HELP OF SOME MAJOR BROKER/DEALERS WHO, OF COURSE, WORK IN CONCERT WITH THEM KNOWING THAT NO ONE CAN OVERCOME THEIR HUGE FUTURES SELLING. They end up making a killing (also the broker/dealers) and everyone else loses. Is this legal?
I doubt it but it has gone on as long as I've been trading (close to 23 years). Any futures trader must always be extremely aware of options expirations in the active month, ESPECIALLY AFTER A BIG MOVE. The fact that SI was trading so far above its 200DMA was also a technically contributing factor. I predict that NOT until Tuesday passes will SI trade NORMALLY and although it is destined to recover and go much higher, it will be capped probably at 6.40 to 6.50 until the Tuesday close. What the professionals did is collusion on a grand scale and one should consider bringing it to the attention of Mr. Spitzer."
