Well as long as we get free health care by spring then thats ok

I would like some fat taking off my tummy, and moving to my bottom in time for the motorbiking season

I hear they are going to move the palestinians to cuba and the cubans to gaza - so that should help too

Viva la Gaza!

ok correlation with DOW now broken - I told ya that as soon as a rule is established, they change the rules

cable marches with the DOW - pip for tick for 2 weeks then today when the DOW goes down 200 points, cable goes up

and when the DOW improves, cable comes down

They change the rules ! so expect it
Cable seems to of only been following in the afternoons for the most part. EJ on the other hand is much easier to trade with dow.

I personally think the dow will range for at least 5 more sessions. 8300-500 should cap this at most till some things get done in the senate. I could be wrong though.
You've got a good point there!

For the long players still, here's what I would want to see. The current 1h candle close above 3873.

Seems to be bouncing off the trendline on the 15m, plus it's close to the 3900 level ...

We've already hit the 61.8 retracement of today's high to low.

Are we going any higher?

yes the forex market always seems to go contrary to the the lurid news on the telly - but the day after

as soon a people think the UK is turning to cannibalism and all the lights are going out - the market whips their positions away and sets off in the other direction

fortunately, I know how this works now

It's weird that the bad news is still as valid as it was when it caused the market to move, but the day after, it's all forgotten !

that rule doesn't seem to change much

She's on the edge of one way or another!

Here's my 1h. We're above the 1h 50ema, she could do what she did last night and just fall again now.

It's forgotten because all the traders binge drink when they finish work, and they forget all the news.

I was hoping she'd make 3900, then at least I'd have a reason to short. This is boring.

As long as you can identify where your SL is then you shouldnt have to worry about entering

Broke the trendline I posted earlier, but it's now struggling to break 3900. I'm flat - unclear which way it's going to go atm.

For those who's 4h candle closes in 30m, I'm looking for mine to close above 3895 for confirmation of the long continuation. Otherwise, she could be down periscope. Problem though, volume is going to start dropping off in 1h 30m.
