What does 'discounts' mean in this context?

It means that the chart does not count, does not care, does not calculate for the news, it is as if the news did not happen.

SPX .. think odds are good.. both near gaps (this am and yesterday's am) will be filled with the FOMC's "fireworks"

Uempel,
Your system with Bollinger Bands worked quite well on dax fut too... Today rebound was just on MA9

Yes, I know. It works on all indices I trade. I guess Goldman Sachs sells the same kind of algos to all banks/trading desks And note that DAX closed exactly on the exponential MA 5, which is a good trend indicator. Quite incredible how DAX managed to stay higher (close above the EMA 5) since February 11th.

The next hour or so are going to be quite interesting

K447: Or, to put if differently, it means that the news is already in the price

What does 'discounts' mean in this context?

It means that the chart does not count, does not care, does not calculate for the news, it is as if the news did not happen.

So the exact opposite of 'the price includes all known facts' or a confirmation that 'the price includes all known facts'

You can run Windows directly on Apple Mac hardware. Works very well, actually. Quite stable hardware, good compatibility.

Windows install does not affect Apple warranty.

5K iMac is impressive
