The Swamp

Interesting analysis of the days of week that stinky can put out a tweet and ratfuck your trades. Small sample size, but Wednesday and Thursday mornings are the worst.

any luck on the good live feed gatorinla mentioned?

1h ago it got to 1247.. Its back up to 1366 now

explains how widespread it touches most of the country. https://www.npr.org/2025/05/07/nx-s1...n%20Hemisphere.
Together these two ports comprise an extremely busy port complex – the Port of Los Angeles alone is the busiest in the Western Hemisphere. But in the month or so since tariffs against Chinese goods ratcheted up – port officials here have been predicting a drop in cargo. This week, they announced it was down 35% compared to the same week last year.
The immediate impact of the cargo decline affects virtually every business around the ports: trucking, shipping, distribution centers, and others. But port officials say this downturn will soon be felt much more broadly – by manufacturers and retailers around the country, as well as consumers.
Volume down, local businesses suffering
In 2024, approximately 31% of everything that came into or out of the U.S. in shipping containers over water, came through this port complex. Last year, the ports handled 19.9 million of those containers – but it's likely to be less in 2025.
Camacho, whose family has worked at the ports for three generations, spoke with pride about working as part of this system.
"My grandmother was one of the first women to work at the ports," he said. "I sometimes think I am doing this for her."

The Indicator from Planet Money
What do farmers do in a trade war?
When asked about his chances of finding work on Tuesday, he was not optimistic – "Ah man, like 25 percent, maybe," he responded.
He ultimately left the dispatch office with no gig.
It's not just longshore workers who are being affected – a dip in cargo affects a huge ecosystem of businesses that are connected to the importing and exporting of goods in Southern California.
Frank Groves is an independent salesman who makes his money selling gloves and safety gear to port workers. He was also at the dispatch hall on Tuesday, trying to find customers – but he says business has dropped nearly 75 percent in recent weeks.

No Gap

I have one

The spread is not so bad considering

Yeah I got a little one on some platforms too.. The latest close I found was 1362

I'm focused on 1367.. It may poke a wick through it. I just want it to hold. I want it to start falling from a rejection

closed

two on the weekly

Dynamically pa is bullish to me at above 1341 sustained (as a day trade).. Below -1309 sustained in 4hs its bearish to me. As day trading goes. As far as 1367 goes to me. it completes a month mission. I dont know if the tariff upset in the market will allow this. I got another mission that would complete at 1.0802 another 1.0354.7.. The way COT is, I went with the missision toward 1.0802. I may be totally wrong. It may not make it. I have other attractors below 1.1. I dont know the outcome. or the next tweet, about more or less tariffs. I'm trading of a completed mission acting as R with COT, toward another mission

during a month beginning from 25 April, Asia was not interested to take price higher than this area
1381 is a magnet

if next tweet does not come for a while we are sub 1.1

weird push higher on JPY pairs

no big news announced?

hold that thought

The village idiot speaks

My ea dynamically will hunt shorts above 1385... If around. and I get a signal. I will post.
PA is bullish.. If you dont have the stomach.. You may want to see what develops

I dont trust my 5 min alone sign.. I did get it to roll over at 1393

Does anyone have the latest trump ts post about putin? like in the last few minutes... Near a threat to putin?

I’ve always had a very good relationship with Vladimir Putin of Russia, but something has happened to him. He has gone absolutely CRAZY! He is needlessly killing a lot of people, and I’m not just talking about soldiers. Missiles and drones are being shot into Cities in Ukraine, for no reason whatsoever. I’ve always said that he wants ALL of Ukraine, not just a piece of it, and maybe that’s proving to be right, but if he does, it will lead to the downfall of Russia! Likewise, President Zelenskyy is doing his Country no favors by talking the way he does. Everything out of his mouth causes problems, I don’t like it, and it better stop. This is a War that would never have started if I were President. This is Zelenskyy’s, Putin’s, and Biden’s War, not “Trump’s,” I am only helping to put out the big and ugly fires, that have been started through Gross Incompetence and Hatred.
