Just an FYI for some of the folks here that use MT4 and may not be aware of it, there are several Expert Advisors over in the programming forum that can watch your trades for you and stop you out at predefined levels. Some of them are pretty complex. I used ManageTP when I was first starting out. It isn't very complicated, but it gets the job done and kept me from losing too many pips.

some dude who called the market crash said the dollar should remain strong but also said it's the most over inflated currency on the planet and has no right being valued so high. called it Ironic.

Watching/Listening to CNBC is hazardous to one's financial health.

So is betting against the trend no matter the "snewze".

Right now. Yep, the prof. traders know what they are going to do with this next week, and are spiking it down for more building of long positions...IMHO.
Or maybe, they could be liquidating their short positions prior to the weekend, thus driving the price up momentarily.
The world may never know....

Anybody keeping positions open over the weekend? I've got a short and a long in play. The short is twice the size of the long since I think we still have some dipping to do even if we start moving north at some point in the near future.

I have a short in play, and a think a few others do as well. The sell off at the end of the day gives me a good feeling it will also.

I'm pretty sure this pattern has played out exactly before ( of course I can't find it!), with price heading due south from here. This should be good until 1.2200 as stated earlier. Might be a 50 pip gap down by Asian open, not so sure it will get filled before 1.2200 either.

I've been burned too many times holding positions over the weekend. I now make sure that any positions i take on Friday are closed out by the end of the day. Good luck to all you holdovers.

Some would say no guts, no glory. Though brave ones are the first to get shot.

European Monetary System at Breaking Point

When others were fawning over the European Union and its committee creation of the euro, Milton Friedman made this prescient and brilliant comment: “It seems to me that Europe, especially with the addition of more countries, is becoming ever-more susceptible to any asymmetric shock. Sooner or later, when the global economy hits a real bump, Europe's internal contradictions will tear it apart.”

That's the usual BS in British newspapers... They've been predicting Europe split since 1989 at least

Interesting reading but the jury is still out on whether or not the European Monetary System is at a breaking point.

I don't think it is. I think it's getting bruised, nicked, cut and badly battered. But it's not in intensive care. I think that a way will be found to resolve this and it will be very very painful. However, in the end, it will prevail.

Smooth sailing never made a good mariner.

Well the fact that Milton Friedman is American, a Nobel Prize winner and dead doesn't mean he may not turn out to be right. Time ............. will tell.

Whoever maybe right or wrong, one can only tell AFTER the events happen... And usually the one's that got lucky/right are the ones the stay in our memories, even if they were 1*10e999999 times wrong before...

Just having fun reading doom theories, from all sides.
