She's getting slapped down in the middle area 1.781x. Possible buy opportunity at the bottom or sell at the top coming up either way. I'm favoring the sale from the top.
Just digging in the trenches like everyone else!

Going to england from the pacific coast pm today - i am taking food as i believe they are all starving to death. I am expecting riots in the street and no electricity.

I will report back next week and tell you if the economy has totally collapsed and there is no beer or fish and chips even

I will join the mile long lines of people trying to get their cash out of the banks so they can convert it to mobile phone vouchers, generators, crates of wine and swiss army knives

ok for the next week - don't follow leaders and watch your parking meters and always wear belt and braces (suspenders to you yankees) and tend your s/l's

oh and put the cat out

anybody trading the fomc today?

here is what I am thinking

no change with doveish statement as expected = short

1/4 cut (since it is already priced in or was till the drop this morning) = long for 50 to 100 pips

1/2 cut unexpected = long for 100 to 200

I will try to get in on pull back after the initial spike or 10-15 min's later after things settle.

I'm thinking....
no change with dovish statement as expected = wait on market reaction
1/4 cut = wait on market reaction
1/2 cut unexpected = wait on market reaction

I think there will be fakeouts after this statement so I will probably wait until after the day close to place a trade. It is not wise to try to predict the market, it is best to wait until the market makes its mind up and ride the waves, not bareback though....
Patience + Discipline - Greed = Success

that most likely is the best thing to do and I highly recommend that.

I personally consider it a lottery trade and I buy lottery tickets. Risk management is my thing and I won't loose more then I can afford........and have hit it big before.....this could be the day!

No Guts....No Glory hehe
