I am so old that I am bored with cliches like 'lead balloon' so I spend all my time dreaming up new ones

next time i get a really good trade I will be 'grinning like Elton in a shared jacuzzi'


I like the old time one's too - especially 'he couldn't organize a good time in a brewery'

It's mad just now aint it ? I mean the fear has gone and is replaced with recklessness - so instead of trembling when it goes through resistance, it just keeps going !

I used to love the knee tremblers where you could tell it was running out of steam and you could go for the retrace.... but there are few clues at the moment - its so confident one way and then so confident the other

If this was an interlude, we could stay out of the market, but 'epilepsy' is the new 'smooth trend' so we had better get used to it

these pairs are moving like demented fiends..
i had stated for you all to take head on the u/j pair. it broke through and dropped like a rock..i place a TP next Support level.
EO..there is going to be a another drop from 93.12 level.. 61.8% level...

waiting for the long with +BE to end..and turn around downward and keep it open over the weekend
this Friday I lost about $1000, but still looking for short entry, want to hold it over the weekend, feeling it a bit risky. I am still guessing what made the big selling of USD.

Fall of the financial stocks in Wall Street.

CitiGroup and Bank of America are on the verge of being nationalized. It looks imminent. Now, maybe traders fear of a deeper collapse in the American financial system.

Probably it happens on sunday. More Bullish for next week i believe

What was the reason of a fall in dollar value?
Some days ago, always when there were bad news for USA, GBPUSD was falling down (risk aversion, GBP is less secure than USD). And today there were also bad(very bad) news for USA - DOW on the bottom, info that huge banks can be nationalized.
And just 5PM GMT GBPUSD went very high up - why?
Maybe people realized, that USD is not really that secure, risk-proof, and the prefer other currencies?
Or it was just a speculative move, and on monday everything will be back?

It's not funny, man. And if you think G. Orwell just made it up in "1984", just watch it!
We already have a "Big Brother" here, right?
Nationalized banks, factories, etc. is around the corner.
What's next? We'd better re-read the book to be prepared.

The dark cloud cover & that doji on the 4hrly before the opening gap on monday is a clear warning of a big selloff. This hasn't happened yet.
Does anybody here think otherwise?
Cheers.

Bearish on 2 lots still.

Emptied 2 on the last dip, rode hedge up +2 lots, and sitting on 2x shorts....

Not greatly comfortable on this side of the line, but I gunna call these free plays right now. S/L set @ 1.4456, but will have them closed before eod, win, lose or draw.

I am thinking to short it with a small lot to keep it over the weekend.
The double top is forming in 1H. And 4450 was already rejected once.

I still feel it is going to drop.
But so far I am very wrong.

The 2x lots I am still holding are @ 1.4389, 1.4397, combinde total of -100...

As I have rode them up to this point hedged, anything to southside is bonus, but really not expecting much....
