{quote} i do it by hand.. is that indi adjustable on the 30 min?
Keep it on M30.....You can change the timeframe, but you will then have to adjust the time settings in the indicator. The indy needs a little tweaking for my purposes, but I think Hanover retired...

once a day at L close is enough for me.. and then once a week at L close.. I doubt you can set it end off the month..

{quote} Great.. I don't mind much in case my shorts are against me for a short term... two things are on my side.. one is time stop.. this H1 uptrend cycle is coming to end soon . 2nd, institutions are selling the Euro now... so I am on their side.. I may not pick the top to short it.. but I will add more later..my avg 1429 for now... if this goes to 1354 first as you Gator said.. I will owe you Gator a big time,,,
Nah, not me......I do a pretty fair job, often hitting targets to the pipette, but Gator is still the master of the nuance -- Been studying him for six years and still learn new stuff that PooPooDamas conjures up!

No M, Q, Y, etc....Still do that manually..

Chart is shown, 3rd one in the group above; It's handy to track the short term opens and closes.....

Note: You can set it on the month, but, since there are four different dates that a month can end with, you would get some unwanted lines plotted on the chart......The indy needs a little tweaking....

Never mix naturally flavored jellybeans with M&Ms. It’s a deadly combination, don’t try this at home. You will regret it. You and your fat ass will regret it. Word of the day

Hmmm...Using AMR, I have the DOW futures to 26300 (Plus 600 or so from here) and ES futures to 2924 (Plus about 71 from here) this month.......Will observe that to see if it's anywhere in the ballpark....I do have those levels (with pullbacks at about 3/4's of the way) by other methods too.

I can't see eu not going higher, especially when it opens at its high

unless Asia does nothing and then london takes it down...

i would love to short the open, but a even a tiny move up likely to take me.

GU i think is still a better short.

So easy to swing your dick around like a lasso after you made a shitload of $$$
Why sell the bottoms when you can buy the tops...

{quote} the week closed lower, pa hit the 1440 area. cot short euro.. I hope to take that trip to 1354 again early next week.. maybe close monday under 1392.. That and a Oriental massage would be a good monday.. Instead I may get kicked in the balls.. with the 1678 attraction..
I'm not 100% comfortable with my shorts here. I have them seeking 1354 at some point.. I may have to ride them a little higher.. the 143x/4x area is where I have some R, where i thought it would drop too. .. I suspect the L week closing lower may test near last weeks lows.. I don't like NY closing day higher or the 1 h above the 200 ema.. Yes, I hold shorts..

st says 1354 before 1494

hmm, perhaps I should have sold.

its getting some bids from somewhere though. EU down GU neutral and being bought straight back up on any dip, what happens when the buyers aren't there?
