Short excerpt from a YouTube video transcript explaining why the speaker uses the futures/derivatives market for price discovery and to provide liquidity context. The speaker emphasizes that derivatives (leverage money) are larger and faster, creating and mitigating bubbles quickly, and prefers very simple but powerful visualizations of liquidity alongside price action.

We like to use the futures market, the derivatives, because derivatives is the leverage money. Leverage money is a lot bigger, faster, so the bubbles are created and they're also mitigated fastest. And derivatives. So derivatives is price discovery engine, so that's why we use it. So let's, let's put in the liquidity. Here's all the liquidity now so we get some context to the price action. I like to keep things extremely simple but powerful.
