    Not yet. The moves haven't been large enough and there has been no runaway move in a single direction. Complexity theory 101: "... an arbitrarily small perturbation of the current trajectory may lead to significantly different future behavior."

    Not a chance.

    Far from baseless. It's called deductive reasoning. Problem is your pushing an agenda.

    Banks are known for rigging markets, question is why would you assume the PM markets would be any different?

    (Also suggest you get off the drugs before answering the question).

    EDIT:
    Throw into the mix that they get to create fiat currency and have virtually exclusive rights to do so.

    Here have some George... maybe some detox via comedy.

    Nope.
    Wrong assumption.
    I just have a different opinion to you, based on what I see, rather than what I hear.

    Why would banks want to rig PM markets?

    Yep.
    Classy.
    Have no rational argument... resort to false personal accusations. You fit well with the pumpers. ;)

    perhaps there is also the logic that if all the algos are programmed to hunt and exploit the same trading patterns then they will amplify those patterns

    That's just a secondary effect.


    Bottom line: You can make a hell of a lot more money a lot more quickly the more volatile a market is.

    It seems quite strange that in the last few days that the AUD seems to have hard support at 72c and silver has massive resistance at AUD$22/oz....
