Yep...spent many an hour of my youth in the late 60's at a place called the 'Art Theater' in Indy.

I understand the theater is no longer there anymore.
Nope, it's gone! I think it's been replaced with a Drag Bar though.

Sounds dodgy to me mate... I tend to watch it in the privacy of my own home

Triple/Quadruple Witching as well. Last time we had Triple/Quadruple Witching, the market moved over 700 pips.
Right now a run for yesterday's high wouldn't surprise me.

Neither would a run for 6200.

Either way, it's all good. I love volatility!

No VCR's or DVD's back then.

Besides, as a teenager it was great fun to get a carload of buddies and head out for an evening of porn and liquor.

Personally I preferred to just go find some back seat action and let my buddies deal with the other stuff.

I'm actually expecting another sizable reversal here to play out a bearish Gartley.
Check out the current hourly candle.

Back seats were great, weren't they?

I had a '55 DeSoto that had a backseat that was bigger than some motel rooms I've stayed in.

The h1 did give us a hammer, now I'm a little leary on taking the long off of the opening of this new h1 candle. Watching my h4 and my 15m as well.

Yeah, we're sitting right at the H1 50/62 and the 50 fib of yesterday's range.

It was a pretty similar situation yesterday when I decided to close my long. Then...boom...rocket launch.

don't you think the 1h/4h cable chart looks like a descending triangle all week?

I didn't see it, but yes, it does look like one.

Cable is playing games at the moment, there seems to be a fair amount of demand at 6340 that is proving to be a tough nut to crack.

Flat atm.
