Who knows. The best we can do is speculate, but the actual impact of the Interest Rates announcement onto the chart is pretty much a roulette. That's why I never trade a currency the day the Interest Rates are being announced.
I agree they can be most contrarian in their reaction.

Same thing in the US - does a cut mean the economy is spiralling down and needs saving or will the economy will be stimulated...

You never know how the DOW will take it...

I wish the euro would stop skulking and get moving up again..

One of those dithery times i am best out - but I leave a little position there just to give me a reason to click on the screen...

long euro a tidgy widgy and gbp ? looks high if the King slices 0.25 ?

If you were him you would do 0.25 wouldnt you ? He needs some popularity right now...

Well, my 0440 short got stopped out at 0430, then refilled again at 0440 - another 10 'this is boring' pips. The long at 0385 still open, but only 'cause I forgot to set my SL before falling asleep last night - it would have stopped out at 0495 and not refilled (yet). Works for me - still have those 50 pips locked in. Short at 0490 still open, still keeping the SL at 0480 (my regular SL when I'm 'confused' and not sure where we're going)

Anyhow, speaking of women... yesterday, I had to go to San Francisco to get some docs apostilled. The drive there took an hour, same for the drive back; took about 15 minutes at the State Building. The whole trip, however took over 3.5 hours, and this is a pretty good representation as to why - just replace the silver car with a teeny honda civic, and add about half of a car length to available space. So, next time you're mad at your woman's direction giving/backwards brain, just remember that it hurts us too, in ways your 'right side up' brain will never experience

When I was deciding on which job to take, it was between SA and UAE... right off the bat, I was 'I can't drive in SA? no way, no how, no thanks!'
A few days later I was taking the man to pick up his car from the mechanic - I didn't know where I was going (and had to follow his upside-down instructions of 'turn right then get in the left lane'), it was hot, traffic was horrible, and well... you can imagine! We finally got to the mechanic, the man got out of the car, looked at me, and calmly said 'you know, honey, maybe Saudis have a point'.
I couldn't even get mad - in that particular situation (and many others), it was just so true!
I'm not even a bad driver, I swear - I'm great... as long as there are no other cars on the road


EDIT: Oh boy, now this is... well, guess there are no lanes you have to stay within so it'll be ok

while the media said Saudis prohibit women from driving, this is half of the truth
the full truth is women themselves dont want or need to drive
Saudis as you know are very rich
every house there have parking, and every parking have at least 10 expensive cars with their drivers

even if the king and princes agreed
the husbands wont agree

Yes, very true - it's the whole cultural sensitivity issue, and I've definitely come full circle in my own processing of it.
For every one woman who wants to drive, there's at least 100 who consider it dishonorable or what not and would never drive. And, apparently, expat women get 'spoiled' pretty fast with being driven around
But, it's still a tough one - I guess, as a westerner, I'm used to what I consider a basic right of having a choice - I can choose to drive or choose to be driven - and that choice is not afforded to the handful of Saudi women who do want to drive (for whatever reason; plus, not everyone is rich, and those less fortunate have to wait around for a male to become available to take them places they need to go, for example).

On that note, I'm going to go cause some havoc in traffic, as I don't have the driver and must drive myself to the bank and post office

Not every Saudi is a Prince or wealthy individual so I am sure there are some women who need to drive but can't.

And not every man whether in Saudi Arabia or anywhere else knows how to drive. Our roads here in South Florida are full of idiots (men and women). It is too easy to get a drivers license and that is the case in almost all countries.

believe me the poorest man in SA can buy a benz CL500 easily
and if you went there, you can see those cars as taxis

comapre the personal income to other country and you will know the difference

the famous game in the young community there is car drifts

Re: Driving

I was to S.A. back when I worked for a Shipping Co. - the port cities of Jeddah, Jubail and Damman. And so I know that not every Saudi can have any car they want. But then there are also foreigners living there that I think their women can't drive either? Not totally sure of that.

Re: Chart

Not much divergence if you ask me.
