man, i go do a 'honeydo' for an hour... and bam... now i gotta go back to work. who dun what? what caused this to go north like it did??

this is becoming almost like work... and i went to trading fulltime cuz i thot it would be fun....

They auctioned off more short term US paper, about 40$ billion, I think... and there was heavy demand for it, pushing yields down.... this is generally dollar negative, from what i've watched

The 89 Smoothy is the brainchild of my Mentor, Money Duck. 5 Years ago before the Forex became all the rage or went public, there was a company called Premier Trade that was run by James Dicks. They would charge $2500 to buy their system which worked pretty well, but ended up managing themselves off the charts. The charts were centered around 3 lines we used to call telephone lines. These lines were permanent on the chart and you could tell the long term, short term and mid term trend with a chart change. I came up with the idea of trying to figure out what the were and then we could give it away....LOL probably helped put them out of business...LOL. Anyway, we worked on it for a couple monthes and finally came up with it. We added the trigger MA's and the rest is history. You can use it on all timeframes and the idea is to keep the stop behind the, ( Telephone Lines ). I am including a template so you all can share it.

According to Wikipedia, the UDSX is 'a weighted geometric avg. of the dollar's values compared to the Euro, Yen, Pound, Cad, Swedish Krona and Franc.

To determine long term trend: Switch Smoothy to Daily Timeframe. If price is above the 3 lines its an uptrend.

Mid term trend: Switch to 4 Hr

Short term: 1 Hr and 15 Min

GBP is only 11.9% of the index .. Eur has more than 50% stake in the index so it can be used with high certainty to trade along with the Eur/Usd .. But it also can help in longer term plays, combined with supp/ress on G/U and pivots .. thats how I use it

I would recommend people to download this and apply his template to your charts. You'll be amazed probably.

Good job Donutman for the programming! That wasn't easy to figure out I'm sure.
