If you read between the lines, 0.18 fatality rate vs 2.2 in UK, you would have to expect uk has 11 times more cases unreported spreading the virus...one would expect cases to accelerate quickly in UK now.

The equity and derivatives markets are not the problem - the problem is in credit, with haywire conditions running rampant. The Fed has been dropping megatons of cash on the problem but it's not working. At some point they will have to close the banks because that is the only and last thing they can do. When that happens, the exchanges will have to close too.

I don't think that's even possible is it? I mean, how do you pay for food etc. When you say close banks, are we on the same level here - no credit card machines, atms stop working, no longer able to exchange currency?

I don't know how it'd work. It's only been done once before, by Roosevelt for just 1 week in 1933. I'm not saying we are there yet, but you can see it coming....

Since then, (Roosevelt) the law is Banks can only remain closed, for 3 day consecutive. It would take an act of congress to change that.

Next corona hot spot is Florida. Give it a few days. Italy style in less than 1 week. A lot of retirees are in Florida. 21% are 65 or older. http://edr.state.fl.us/Content/popul...Census_Day.pdf

right, which they could do and maybe would if confronted with another meltdown of the financial system. This virus is on a par with Pearl Harbor or a natural disaster of unimaginable proportions, like an asteroid strike. It's like a 1000-ft tsunami that you know is coming, you can see it out there, it just hasn't hit yet.

In These Unusual Times are ADR's still helpful? Please Advise.

I Am Using Trend Lines, Very Helpful For Me.

I Saw The Buy Entry Because We Were At A Monthly Support 1:06548 And There Was A Trend Line Break And A Bullish Candle For The Trigger And I Took The Buy.

My Take Profit Of 1:0830 Was Decided Because It Will Meet With The Downward Sloping Trend Line Above.

So I Am Getting Out Just Before Price Hits The Trend Line Above.
