Interesting but do not know how to read volatility chart.It is going down sharply as I see , should mean the weekly movements becoming shrinking rapidly?

Prehaps it should be good for us trading mostly daily basis and the hyip/gambling part be reduced from market maker side.
Please clearify in brief if I am wrong & not understood at all.
thanks

Yes, you are correct...

With lower volatility it's not harder to trade, just different... And the old system you have backtested for a year might end up in zero or minus....

Lower volatility means (at least for me) that instead of having 30/70 SL/TP two times a day I might have to swap to 20/40....

For those who only trade price action or TA it doesn't matter so much but for those who are like me (semi mechanical trading) have to be careful...

the good things are that more traders follow the "rules" and the systems tend to last longer....

Why couldn't it be?

There's all sort of Big Mac Whacked Gap theories floating around here.

Including the one that "they" did it over the weekend in a super duper secret meeting. "They" managed to keep Joe Biden's mouth shut somehow (I guess his jaw got wired).

Not a real job work: I have the bad habit of saying yes to friends. A crashed hard drive is simple enough for a ten year old to fix, but everyone acts like its the end of the world.

Luckily I have the mind of a ten year old (damn I hope puberty kicks in soon)

I'm gone for now. Have a good weekend my friend.
Be careful on the open next week. I still see the trend as up, but there is the possibility of a dive south. Just go with the flow if it heads down, but watch your a$$ at 1.4 and 1.3745. On the up side watch 1.4330ish.

Now eat drink and be merry, for tomorrow we may die

i dont think we are out of the pasture yet.. but i did post some long term charts early friday. they showed us bumping on a long term resistance (diag fib wise).. the spike friday did not put us past the recent spike of 4444..so bullish move numbers and charts remain valid until we are below last weeks low..dont want a double bottom surprise. but until then i got some numbers for bears too.. if you watch numbers you will have a clue of direction.. so far fridays move was bearish with a little retrace before close.. just keep in mind the trend is up.. is that up trend changing? i dont know but its not strong. but then we may just be consolidating..im not biased either way i did posted some bullish numbers that were hit and passed and then became support.. this was a shorter term chart. the slightly longer term was rejected..

ok this is what i have.. bears have a little momentem... since chart numbers for bulls were not even touched. the number not touched was only #2 of 5 #s on my chart so i consider that bull move weak. but it aint over yet.. here is some clues the month week stochastic are at the top... getting below 4245/53 told me i was correct in my thoughts about where the bulls were digging in.. they failed

i could rant on but im tired and will let the numbers i post be proved right or wrong.. the smaller set of numbers im posting now were posted friday... i have not taken the time to get any of these numbers precise.. but they should be close.. within 3 r 4 pips... as always you can use these along with the red/blue personality numbers ect.

to keep me from being confused when comment later on these ill say there bearish predictive numbers. keep in mind im waiting for a direction and if this a turn we could get whip sawed for months.. light blue are the shortest term and if we continue lower or higher i will build a longer term chart.. the longest here may be a week/month???? who knows the pair does what it does.. light blue shorter term the same as fridays..4235 23 12 01 4190 76 62 40 18

mid term. blue numbers 4270 21 4190 59 36 10 4087 60 30 01 3951 3901

even longer..red numbers 4263 05 4169 34 05 4077 49 19 3983 47 3891 33

these numbers are not precise..they are off..i have not put them to caculator yet... on 2 of these charts have 4190 so this may be a busy place..or strong support..

whatever eu consolidates around are the valid numbers..just watch the reaction.. in sudden moves throw them out the widow...like after big news//

happy pippin

Head and Shoulders is nice. Gets rid of dandruff.

But what shampoo should you use after Head and Shoulders?

Thanks gatorinla for those great numbers .Anyway I feel 1.4153-1.4253 should be most safest place for scalping of any short or long, extending at times as far as to 1.43 -141.14 till get a direction ,timing I assume start with Zew Economic sentiment & confirm with US building permit on Tuesday.

If actually we come to know /predict any confirm movement of any size we can have earn any amount of money safely.Nobody should try please ,prediction is prediction & go with real move.
