Good the numbers where bad, but not terrible, bad for the USA shoulda sent the price UP not down, which highlights how stupid reading the news is, just know when it is.
Nothing to it, but to do it!!! Stick to the plan FOOL!!!!

yawn -morning all -just woken up..

I see a big red line on the euro/dollar and similar on cable

I accidentally left a short running so that's good

But what happened ? Trichet added his expected quarter percent and all the US figures came out slightly worse that expected - so what happened ?

Just took my accidental short off and put a small long on

Yes my biggest ever win was 2004 when I accidentally left a position running when I moved from UK to Milwaukee - it took me 10 days to get my computer up and running and I was amazed at the win !

It was a good lesson in long term trading - had my computer been running I would have been in and out 10 times in that 10 days and probably lost


Seems Trichet said something to the effect that this .25% might do it while everyone was expecting 10% by xmas

What - with the US going down the drain fast ?

What a weak excuse for chopping the euro - this little long is bouncing nicely

DOW is peeping up a bit but that's only to make the wage slaves feel a bit better about their 401k's for the holiday

July 4th, I will be in gas works park in Seattle shouting -

'the illegal armed insurgency will fail and if it takes 300 years we will stamp it out !'

They will all think I am talking about iraq rather than yorktown so i should get away with it

Next week the DOW will get slammed again and gbp will go up in response

I always trade for a bounce either way after a big move following numbers - most of the time it bounces back and i make money

but I never plan on it bouncing more than the magic %

i vote for a quiet market tomorrow

i vote for euro up strongly next week

we will have to consult luscious lucy the mysterious oriental lady with the silk curtains and sly cat and heavy makeup and joss sticks burning dimly

she can even say what time of day the market will move and which way

We haven't heard from her since she asked the lone ranger to cross her palm with silver

Buy the dips
