{quote} fundi wise,, yes we all agree rate raise means stronger dollar. visual wise, it's not adding up on the usd. it could just be a anomaly, where anticipation of the tax cut to u.s. businesses have held back on bringing usd home till tax cut takes effect. while others buy euros as a hedge in their future transactions in anticipation of a rising usd in 2018. Just speculating here. visual wise, the eu is climbing and usd falling. no different than a stock price. it rises and falls on peoples opinion of it or any stocks value. in 2018 if the eu...

if Asia finds another store of wealth. It can't be good for usd, gold, silver etc. the ed will still be judged against the usd.. like any other usd cross. stock wise of the country, its just like any company. its judged on board and ceo

if you were a large international company headquartered in the U.S.A. like Apple. Now you can bring back billions with the new tax system. Just curious on why people think Apple will hire Americans, When the tax system does not require that. The company still has the obligation to make the most for its stockholders. So i dont see them hiring Americans, for more than a dog and pony show. Why buy the cow, when the milk is free?

look at this statistics today to see how depressing dollar is

"The Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index fell 0.3 percent, extending its decline this year to 8.2 percent, its biggest slide since data starting at the end of 2004"

I wonder where big contrarian traders are, all on vacation?

rules of the streets.. People spend hundreds of billions each year on education. All of them teach the same thing. how to separate you, from your money.
when they talk, keep your hand on your wallet. both hands to cover your ass. because it's coming.

Thunder lightning. 1819 gruuuuuuuuuuuuuu Just wonder about this question: did Gator just add more right here or not, if not 1801!???..... I could be wrong as always lol Gator might has a diff and better view than mine at this point We need to see week ends at 1862+ , below 1800, will be bearish next week but my bias right now is still bullish My long was so at 1839 and already back in! {image}
Closed everything right here at 1947
Looking for long again later !

Good luck and have fun guys !

Huge amounts of speculation there, SK accounted for a quarter of global trade at one point last month if this article has the correct data. Things may be about to change though..

a london roll above 1939 would be a higher Lday close.. b/o wise on day.. week wise also 1939 often they work as s/r.

get the 00:30 close above 1949 and it may go further.. month and week still have lots of range.. day 1959, but the day has gotten muted lately..

if any those 12/18/21 hour closes lower than previous, you won't close your longs anyway unless L closes lower than previous day? am I right?.. I am not talking about generally..I only ask about how you handle your current positions for exits...

it's been above 1939.. if it closes below you may get some retrace. the q m w would still be bullish. so u may want to buy support. the week at 1939, the month 1911 the q 1809... the same on those tf and close levels. yest closed 1891.. we got an h to go. if not above 1939.. it may retrace some.. maybe 1911 area,,

{quote} its near year's end. well above 2016 wicks.. nov wick at 1960.. lets see where 2018 rolls in.. the cluster wick at 2091. 1939 type numbers are sometimes hard to close above/below.. the last one was 1706 ish on the drop to 1553 fairly quick. on a smaller tf closing 00:30 + 1949 would be a higher close, that should help the day with 1939. the day could help the week with 1939. probably best to stay away from shorts with 00:30 close 1949+
here we go.. never got a 1/2 close above 1949.. 23 min to go
