I am mr market maker and
I own you.
If you don’t think
I own you,
just try mouthing off about the fact
that I don’t own you,
and I will show you that I do,
in fact,,, own you,
I own you from the time you sign on to your account,
I own you from the time you obtain a quote from a quote machine,
I own you from the time you think you have buying power,
I own you from the time you put a ticker symbol in a order entry system,
I own you from the time you place a bid,
I own you from the time you try to enter an ask,
I own you when you try to sell an option,
I own you if you think a good faith order, is, in fact, a good faith order.
I own you if you don’t think I can move a stock up on 100 dollar buys,
I own you if you don’t think I can prop a stock with 10 thousand share sells,
I own you if you don’t think I can sell a penny stock for 2000 dollars,
I own you if you think I will expose your orders at my convenience,
I own you if you think I will ever let you trade in front of me,
I own you if you ever think you can trade an illiquid stock,
I own you if you don’t think I can conspire with others to move the biggies like elephants,
I own you if you don’t think I have sold my soul,
I own you if you think you can make money trading,
I own you if you think the media is not a tool,
I own you if you don’t think I have communication means beyond your imagination,
I own you if you don’t think this is a stage,
I own you if you think I will not take your money,
I own you if you think you can mouth off and get away with it,
I own you if you think this is a free market,
I own you if you think this whole system is not rigged,
I own you if you think you will ever make money buying options,
I own you if you think you can survive my power,
Do not ever,

**** me off,
because,
basically,
I flat out own you……
