an argument to your bullshit? Ha nice try!
not quite but you also know what they did to it on the day that Hussein announced that UBL was "killed". To the second this was done. May 2nd 2011. Specifically timed to use the cover of that event to annihilate the futures markets while no one was looking.
I'll have an answer to your concernfaggin later. You'll see it trust me.
now this is your issue not mine. Sucks to be you.
Asian and US Futures Market Report
Futures markets are easlity moved around and you must match a price on offer with a lot or share size. There is no mechanism for placcing an order for X amount of shares at open or market price. This is the big boi's using this to their advantage. Retail traders are laregelt shut out of this because they are largely unaware of this fact. You can participate in these markets but you must evaluate the open order book (level2) and the prices on offer. You tehn submit your order based on what you see. You all may recall the election night of 2016 and the futures markets were trading down-over 900pts on the DOW at one point. This is exactly the same time that the elction reporting results were interrupted for about 30 minutes-when Hillbags was in the lead. Once they came back on-line and showed POTUS starting to come back the Futures traders (or Algo's moar importantly) decided they need to tag long. A full reversal was made and by the next day and it actually tacked on a nice solid gain- all three of the major market indexes gained solidly on the day, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average posting a 257-point advance.

Key point
Because after-hours sessions are largely made up of professional traders and the volume is low, higher price volatility may be present. This may make it more difficult to know when to buy or sell.
One large trade by a large firm could have a significant impact on the price of a stock or overall index indicators.

On to the action of the last few hours-the headlines are basically bloody muder but factor in the above on Futures markets trading and you will begin to see that this is a totally manufactured event Not only are our market futures down Japan is also dealing with it's recently released GDP results. Down moar than estimated-Japan’s economy contracted last quarter more than initially estimated, underscoring its vulnerability even before the coronavirus threatened to push the country into recession. Gross domestic product shrank an annualized 7.1% from the previous quarter in the three months through December, as consumers slashed spending after a hike in the sales tax and businesses cut investment the most since the global financial crisis. The economy shrank 1.8% from the previous quarter on a non-annualized basis So this is weighing heavily on the overall action of all markets at this point. The overall Asian index(s) are off the lows from the opening(s) but our Treasury markets are being hammered. The 10 year traeasury note has a 5 handle on it…the 30 year has also followed suit and is struggling to hold 1% at present. Gold rallied above $1,700 an ounce-see cap# as a concerted global rush into havens intensified, with the upswing driven by turmoil in the oil market, the spread of the coronavirus, sinking equities, and expectations of easier monetary policy as recession risks loom ever larger. Silver was double-topped on the initial rise and was hit quite hard-because that makes PERFECT sense right?-don't forget about it…it is easily the most manipulated of the 2 markets.-it is offering you a gift with this divergence.
Gold hit the highest level since 2012 as Brent crude collapsed at the start of trading in Asia, while futures on the S&P 500 Index sank more than 4%. Investors have already driven holdings in bullion-backed exchange-traded funds to a record as the coronavirus slammed the outlook for growth. Oil has absolutely been Putin'd and the Saudi's are now on a scorched earth policy and will ramp up production to try and capture moar market share.
