Sorry to be off topic, I read an article that Goldman Sachs helped Greece to cook their books. I am just curious to know how it is done. Does anybody have a true and detailed picture of how it is done?

Done a google search but results are sketchy.

Thanks.

The European Union has asked Greece to explain reports that it engaged in derivatives trades with U.S. investment banks that may have allowed it to mask the size of its debt and deficit from EU authorities.
According to the New York Times, one contract in 2001 -- carried out just as Greece was joining Europe's monetary union -- involved Greece selling forward future lottery receipts and airport landing fees in exchange for cash to write down debts.
The deal was treated as a currency trade rather than a loan, according to the newspaper, allowing...

Last week you said something about a bounce off the 3550 area....to 3566 area i believe and then continue downward.....

You still looking for 34xx area or the 32xx area....for the bounce to reload and Short again?

I am looking for a SHORT to 3380 area before a retrace back to 3650ish/66....

We are still in a channel on 1 hr and my Daily pitchfork still showing downtrend!
dont recall that. but if numbers were that close it was a tiny tf. and thats been over. i do recall saying if 3591 was respected i was looking for 3650/53.. missed it.. by 8 pips.. i also had some last night even higher.. but being so sluggish before reaching 3650 gives me doubt.. but it dont matter what i think.. i posted what math said. we are in a down move and bull targets not being reached is fact to this. 3483 +slip and 3186 + slip still valid.. as well as even lower numbers on bigger charts..

In the time between I will have a look on H1 charts ...

H1 chart EUR/USD


I can see 3x (three times) a HAMMER there ...

At 7h00 CET, 14h00 CET and at 16h00 CET ...

Which does not have much to say in that case ...

But it shows - that todays rejections where more impulsive in character - than downside swings ...


It is a kind of nowhere zone at the moment ...

We uses to say - "nicht Fisch noch Fleisch" ...

Sorry - I can't express that in ENGLISH ...

Maybe that is a bit an IDIOMATIC phrase - which can not be translated ...

Don't know...

Thanks but doesnt Greece record the debt as a liability in the balance sheet even though it is in USD? How would EZ officials missed it when they are doing due dilligent on the books.

*LMAO* the books were cooked.. the politicians forced the bean counters to do it. many other countries in ez have the same problem. if they have the same usd deal as the one with goldmen. the more u.s. banks could be on the hook.. we dont know if aig insured these or not... this story is very young.. and its much bigger then we know. its far reaching and the world may be affected. without a doubt some of europes biggest banks will bite the bullet. on other deals we dont yet know of. and with everything hush hush im sure the politicians in the piigs and even france are scared of the facts leaking out.. germany may be left holding the bag.. and it so they will leave ez holding the bag.. along with many banks.. this aint over.. the politicians are putting french lipstick on piigs

I think it was recorded as a sale because of the use of a swap (which I believe makes it an off-balance sheet transaction).

Ja ...

Ok - 1.3633 - still capped there ...

And of course - the major trend still points to the downside ...

But I am a bit alarmed by the small trading range of today ...

Normally - the Breakout - to either side could be more impulsive then - after such a day ...
