Hi Mate

Yes, Got my hands full and mouth shut most of the time.

From what I have seen, everytime there is a large Treasuries auction in the states, the treasuries sell off and rally to new heights on the yield. And then when it comes time to settle the debt the dollar gets bought something silly.

Also technically, cable retraced sharply to the 158 level which is a significant 61fib of the major move north. Looks to be back in the bull trend to me. Got a target of 16280 atm on this long.

I am also watching the Dollar index like a hawk and taking most of my cable trades based on what the $index is doing and it has helped a helluva lot. Looks like a H&S play sinking the dollar to be honest.I think she is targeting the 80 support on $index today based on the fib projections and S&R levels. She needs to breech the 1h62ema on $index as she is there now. ... ah broke that.

I have been playing the bull today and have not taken the slower shorts

If we past this area and 6100... I think we could be heading towards 62xx for a retest of the broken blue tl (not extended on chart)..
Here's the chart with the extended line.... I exited my shorts last night at the h1 50sma and reversed for exactly 100 pips... on the sides now.. but looking to short at the line....

Good morning, nice trading. I had some similar trades last night and also caught a sweet ride south on the Mistress. She came off the 15 min 200 sma nicely last night. Did I see you with her?

You have become anagain, that's cool. I have played her for a couple of bounces off the 200 this morning. I am geared up for the GU short also.
