He doesn't need to "prove" manipulation, which is a red herring. He simply needs to set position limits for speculators <i>and</i> commercials alike to the same % as other scarce resource commodities. By this action, it would make "manipulation" extremely difficult and if any "manipulation" were to try and persist, then it would more easily be exposed and then he can prove intent. Chilton is gutless because he has the power to adjust position limits now, without all of this hullabaloo.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14611189349119964821noreply@blogger.com
