Unprecedented

By -

It’s not that big a surprise in this disgustingly Bernanke-manipulated market, but there is yet another Never Seen Before Ever for me to show you. Observe the S&P e-mini:

0406-neverbefore

Notice anything interesting? Yep, it alternates. And it’s been doing so for 15 days.

The odds of this happening in a random environment (say, a coin toss) are, I believe, one in 16,384. I am not a math guy, so I’m assuming the odds are 1 to 2 to the 14th power. And if I’m wrong, and you’re right, well, bite me, because I’ve still got a full head of hair.
