A minute of silence for my mates up North tonite... ((not me for once))

The chill factor with 10mph wind is currently -70 to -75 below F.

But no matter, cuz the big news ((orange box)) on the North Slope is that... the sun came up over the horizon for all of 2 minutes at noon!!

It's been gradually increasing since it first came back up on Jan 24th ((for a few seconds)) since it disappeared back in mid November. You could lose a wanka in this weather. ((I know Nuck, a wanka is not a noun, but it sounded good))
Goodgodman, Did I read right? 2 minutes of daylight, -75 F

Just had 115 F here today (48 odd degrees C)

Cool change has just hit so I'm out for a swim in the pool (should be cool enough now) and one of those Wanka Beers from the fridge

I hedged my shorts, and will hold the hedge till I see the 2783 area. If the bull run starts now, and we don't reach that level, I'll either be a hedge holding son of a $%^& or a large drawdown holding son of a $%^

IBFX let's you take 2 opposing trades on the same currency. You just have to know which one to close, and when. Or you'll be holding onto a losing trade with a large draw down. I trade on weekly most of the time so I don't mind the drawdown, as long as I'm holding the direction of the monthly trend.

Don't get it twisted, large drawdowns aren't for the faint of heart. But If we do head further south, my drawdown will only be from the level we have here till 2873. Unless we keep heading south. On the flip side if we head north, to the level I'm expecting. I better hold onto my nuts. My answer to that will be to add more positions on the ride north, and cut the loosing shorts. The additional positions will compensate for the loosing shorts.

i bet there is some truth to this one...russias done put a fork in her... europe has lots of investments there... domino affect..

The [RUSSIAN GOVT] has denied reports that it is considering the restructuring of domestic banks $400bn [CORPORATE DEBT] and says it is not in talks with foreign banks over this matter. The cost of plugging bank/corporate external re-fin needs is est at $120bn by the CBR for 2009, implying a huge [FX RESERVE DRAIN] if a 1998 magnitude crisis re-occurs. According to the CBR, 34 banks already failed in 2008 and support for the sector has already cost the sovereign a material amount. The CBR deposited $50bn with VEB to help refinance short-term external debt maturities and $180bn has been set aside to provide support for the corporate/banking sectors. The key worry is that possible bank run infects more solid institutions, leading to a deeper currency crisis and contaminating already poor fundamentals in neighbouring EEMEA countries. extreme stress.
