I would be inclined to think that the early Asian session will bring us back to the 38.2 fib at .4680. Maybe not, but the real trend still seems down to me. The Asian session has been pretty hard on the Euro lately. Just have to wait and see what the CHARTS say.
lol, yeah!... history has a tendency to repeat itself!. I hope EU goes crashing down to 1.4, and no looking back...lol

Just got back from filling up my vehicle with gas. Couldn't help but notice it went up 8 cents from yesterday (I live in the midwest). So I asked the clerk what the deal-e-o was. He said labor day weekend and hurricane picking up steam, therefore the "boss" told them to raise it. I asked what that(hurricane) had to do with the gas they had already purchased. He said, beats me. Didn't want to razz him to much, he's just an employee. Price gouging b@##t@rds.

From my reading of the charts, this pair will still move up for a little bit (less than 100 pips) and then head back down.

What do you see in your charts? 100 pips? When will this happen?
You may be right, could happen, but I don't see it.

Now you tell me ....

For the ones that make profit, work out what went right. Did you stick to the plan? Did you stick to target area...
Excellent "wish I'da said that..." That's at least as important as what went wrong, if not more so. Learning from mistakes is good, learning from success is better.

On another note: This sneakers and ice to the eskimos on ebay thing is really distracting me from trading now. Sometime last night while at this thread, I got this idea to gin up a "shock collar" for traders, new and old alike, and sell it on ebay.

You have an electronic checklist gizmo you plug into a USB port on your PC, and you have to fill it out before you can pull the trigger on a trade. If you cheat and do something stupid like enter before you have satisfied all the requirements of your plan, you get zapped, and your PC reboots. And so on with bells and whistles available.

Maybe an autopost to the whole thread of your choice with pre-recorded message that "AK4x IS AN IDIOT! AGAIN" or something like that. Add an audible alarm that lets your wife and kids know what you did. Send a text mssg (DAD IS IDIOT) to their cute little pink sequined cell phones while they're at the mall with friends. Whaddya think?

I could be on the Next Big Idea show with Donny Duetsch...

How about a recorded voice of your choice playing every time you are in a winning trade telling you how good you are, go go go, do it again, you're the best, - well you get the idea.
Maybe Paris Hilton, Demi Moore, or whoever.
Market it like that guy on girls gone wild with a motivational approach.

I was having a cup of tea. I gazed deeply into the liquid. A voice spoke to me,
“ The price of the EUR/USD is going to go up and it is going to go down. Knowing where it is going is not what is important to your future, Piptechnician, what is important is to make money when it goes up and make money when it goes down. It does not matter if the fundamentals are priced in or even guiding direction. Your objective is to make more than you lose, money management and statistically high probability short term trading is the key for you. When flat enjoy a glass of red wine not tea. Remember no one knows where price is going or when intervention may occur but there are people who make consistent profits. Never ask why, ask how and don’t let your wine glass go dry”

Moral of the story, when you want a glass of red wine you don’t need to put water in the tea kettle.

Take your pick of the following...

Won't work, cuz we're all stone cold trading machines, and things like that don't even tweak our radar. :nerd:

alternatively...
The Paris Hilton sounds like a hotel in France. Doesn't excite me. I have a demi tasse for espresso. That's French for half a cup. So demi moore is French for half of more, which sounds like an oxymoron. Still won't work. :nerd:

it is still bullish, (if ever that neckline breaks....), the second bottom doesn't need to be higher, but the length of the neckline to the thorough should be the same


Quoting SunTrader
A bullish double bottom is when the 2nd (more recent bottom) is higher than the first.

My wife was laughing a lot and later she asked: What about the ones that don't use indicators, any idea?
For the moment I told her that those don't buy the machine.

Whatever... I'm so bored I've been trading 5 lots of GY from 201.14 to 200.91 scalping 7 or 8 pips at a time up and down. Probably time for happy hour before I post any more genius ideas or get caught in the wrong direction and lose the huge fortune i have amassed in the last hour or so.

I need one of those ......attached not to my neck .. but to something else. I deserve it for some of the dumb things I do .

Here is the list

3) place order on the wrong pair (gbpaud instead of gbpusd)
2) place stop only 10 pips away when I thought it was 100 pips and get stopped out as soon as I enter the trade

and the all time best

1) press the sell button when I meant to press the buy button

Hi malcom, I had the same problem some month before, I went to check my eyes and the doc gave me one of those horrible 5$ glasses, later that problems got less.
What you think? Nobody gets younger, lol.
