man... you still here? how's yr trading? hope all good ..just checking up... see ya later.
Hey, Dropped in after being away for most afternoon. Trading good. Still in my short since the 15th . Cant wait to see what next week holds. Stocks are dropping like stones and will influence currencies as well.

BTW, my son have shorted the S&P index since a month ago. He made over $1500 past couple days alone with fairly small postions. Smart guy.

See you all.

Does anyone knows why candle bars are different??? Do they really differ from broker to broker??? Many of them look the same. But some of them are completely different!!!
I think it has to do with the spread. The broker with the wider spread will have a longer wick.

Really... Chinese candlesticks?? That's a new one. Once you subtract the misinformed forum quotes ((like turdy's)) from the couple of dozen google hits that come up, about all you have left is... nothing. Now the Japanese on the other hand...

Gotta give turdy two pips for consistency anyway... unless it's something HE'S doing, it's BS... ((check his backposts on fibs, pivots, TF's longer than a few minutes, profitable traders, pretty much anything anyone else might be doing... ))


And his last statement is so Bizarre ((even for him)) it doesn't even merit a response. All that angst must be taking it's toll...

On the other hand ---> Maybe he's on to something???

A bit dated I know, but then some things never go out of style I guess.

Alright, I would like to share some of my trading thoughts since I have not been doing it for quite some times and I happen to feel generous today and you can ignore them to your own detriments.

E/U- Current trend is similar to Prevailing trend which is bearish. Retracement Trigger Level for Current trend is @ 14455 and 14655 for Prevailing trend. Trigger levels can also be use as resistant levels becos even if its breached, Price will always pullback to fibo levels before taking on its new intended course/path. Therefore its always...



Alright....hope everybody is fine and I will post a continuation to my last weeks PA analysis as I am able and well. As usual, lets start with E/U.

E/U- This pairs is currently in a retracement mode within a Prevailing bearish trend. The KEY s/t trigger level is @14200level and if its breached will sent this pairs northward to test the Prevailing bearish trigger located @14580level. So how are we going to play if this s/t intraday trigger @14200 is breached ? As PA doesnt travel in one way direction, wait for a fib pullback @14140/60 to initiate a buy/long trade with initial TP@ 14390 and place your ISL@14070. For the more adventurous, its can also be a 2ways up/down trades as long as you are aware of ALL the KEY levels. Now if the upside trigger held and PA breached the bearish continuation trigger currently located @ 14076 level, it means that price will continue to fall to make lower low located @first stop@13960/13840 levels. Again wait for the first fib pb to enter a sell/short trade with ISL @14150 level.

As my current energy level is low, I will post my takes on G/U, U/J. G/Y later as soon as my energy is up and running again.

GL and cheers................

Certain critters don't have a Closed season in the settled up areas, it's always open for when they're being a nuisance...

Besides chicky... what's so bad about listening to what you have to say? I still read nearly every post of yours that I come across.

I don't know of a single other trader here at FF that quite has your.... uummmm.... "peculiar and very unique" perspective on things and I very much enjoy it...

Seriously.

Seriously.
This evening a guy with big financial muscles offered me ride home. On our way home he recieved a call from one of his advisors. Without knowing I was in the car and listening, the caller said something similar about me in a good way (You know we now have cell phone attached to car speakers). But I am so blind that cannot follow even myself.

Donnie,

Not the week but In fact I ended up in this week.

I am a bit longer term trader and therefore five days is too short a period to say anthing for a 1000 pip move. But it wasn't a good week, probably one of the worst weeks I have ever seen.

Housewife's are selling now into the panic. I'll exit stocks later

we should see some rebound Monday. Anyways.. Money has no way

to go now. Also we could Expect Gold/Silver Stocks and Bullion move up from here.

My Silver/Gold stocks are actually up today.

Horrible week for the Markets, thanks to Barabama banks bashing.
1070.50-1028 is the main key atm while next week will give some changes to US for getting stronger a little bit and time for cross pair to do what they should before massive movement expected by end of next week while NFP will making a new phase of PA..

just my thought

In my opinion, there's a great chance we go to 4225 (Only 44pips from todays high). If that breaks, we could see the 4250/80 area which would be my ultimate comfort zone to add heavy short positions.
i think you missed my point. before last up move i posted original post. i didnt add to my short when getting there. i didnt follow my system. note to self was to stick to system..

Your longs will turn man, it's only a matter of time. Dollar aint gettin no stronger(but neither is Euro) I'm not saying I'm long right now but I will be. I really didn't realize that you didn't run too many medium term trades...I've seen your posts in regards to your long term euro longs and some short scalps I believe.

Anyway, take care and I'll talk with you guys soon.

Not looking very good for bulls at the moment but if 1.41 does not hold we may get a yearly low by end January or February around 1.38 before the uptrend continues.

Below 1.38 exposes 1.35 which is the last frontier before 1.25

I am long euro vs usd, gbp, aud

eu is red but the other two have green pips locked in


A good long term trade might be buying at 1.38 and/or 1.35 depending on risk threshold..Selling below 1.35 will also reward with minimum risk

I think so too but not understand from where he took the longs , last 2 days were in a bull channel & any taken within this range should not be any problem in tp.Anyway there still may chance go up as price made new high each time plus weekly candle end having a bigger wick than previous .
Just my idea as per MK,s teachings and from present channel.Perhaps a 1.4211 limit up if not this wave down already rest on a bottom & if so( quite possible ) then any UP to top .confirmation next week.
Wish chicky come out with success next week.

Currency speculators increased bets against the U.S. dollar in the latest week, according to
Commodity Futures Trading Commission data released on Friday. The value of net short positions in the dollar rose to $3.12 billion in the week ending Jan. 19, from a net short position of $2.7 billion the previous week, according to Reuters calculations.
The Reuters calculation for the aggregate U.S. dollar position is derived from the net positions of International Monetary Market speculators in the yen, euro, British pound, Swiss franc, Canadian and Australian dollars.
