banks are da big player in this game, buddy.
Lol , Do 5abi , is not the big player in this game, just we call like that when we got a big move like that, but the really big player is hedge funds and big speculators...
High risk High return!

Barack Obama:

"Today, I fully support the effort of Secretary Paulson and Federal Reserve Chairman Bernanke to work in a bipartisan spirit with Congress to find this kind of solution.
What we're looking at right now is to provide the Treasury and the Federal Reserve with as broad authority as necessary to stabilize markets and maintain credit."

And sorry, it does matter that the guy that was supposed to be overseeing all of it, is now head of the US treasury.....
Let me get this straight... We're going to be gifted with a health care plan written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that hasn't read it, but exempts themselves from it, to be signed by a president who also hasn't read it and who smokes, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes, and financed by a country that's broke?

Good post exactly..It's surprises me we have some very intelligent people here yet they are more naive than a 6 year old child.
What's up with that the painting on the wall been there for ages for all to see.

I loaded a fresh short on the second peak @3780. I'm looking for 3735...we'll see what happens there. Seems to be nothing but helium and beer farts holding this up at the moment.

nope- forex is primarily bank's game- people like u and i got on due to better technology. ever wondered why forex options and futures never really caught on? cuz, you can transact any kind of hedge with ur bank.

as the other poster said, a handful of banks make up majority of the transactions dealt.

I am gonna post a chart later at night, but I dont see any more down. This thing is going a lot higher than what it is right now.

The only time I thought it will go down was yesterday that I mentioned in my post:
http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost...stcount=211456

and later nullified it when I saw the angle shift here:

http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost...stcount=211652

You are in Wave 3 of a impulse wave or you could be in Wave C of a different count. 3850 will be sliced and diced like a knife through butter, and we should see a retracement at 3970.

I Dont have time to show what I mean by the Wave3/C, but I am gonna do a post later tonight and will explain it there.

Sorry, its none of my business, but I am just trying to help out:

My advice is that wait till the start of the EUR session before going short, that way you wont get wipsawed.

Take Care

it might be a little early considering commodities have a bit more room to go, i sell small on the way up, then big at the top.

while some wonder why the technical and fundamentals haven't brought the EU down faster these last couple of weeks,... let's see,... the Euro has it's problems (understatement?), and the US's are out for all to see,... so i suppose karma will keep us in this horizontal range we've been trading in for years to come (a ground hogs day of 4x). there's gotta be a way for us to profit from it. let's try to keep our chins up. cheers, g~~~

this is spot on...according to the thinking at the time (not that I agree with their thinking). Rep. Paul Kanjorski broke down the sequence leading up to the events. It all started with a purported 550 billion electronic "run on banks". It's been awhile since I viewed the clip that appeared on cspan, but it's worth viewing if you haven't seen it. I believe kanjorski mentions paulson several times.
i own a store. my nephew runs it for me. if you ever heard of a little bank called chase. i have a few business accounts with chase. anyway we deal with a lot of cash. chase, yes chase called my nephew up out the blue and asked him if he could make a deposit. he is tight with the ladys there. so he made the deposit. we usaully have many thousands of dollars in 1$ bills also. he deposits them when he has a large amount normaly. so they asked him if he could deposit the 1$ dollar bills also and any 1$ coins. he was baffled upon them asking this. so since he was tight with the tellers he asked why. the responce was they did not know if armored car would arrive or if it had any money on it.. they got this from their boss who got it from the chain from the top. in other words chase ran out of money at this branch.. they were down to paying people with 1$ coins. this is just one bank in thousands with the chase name on it. later "the suckas gone down" was on the news.

lol you are wasting your time with that guy , they do not really know what they are talking about.

Goldman Sachs are one of the biggest players and they now have bank status

I think JP Morgan keep all their money in a piggy bank.

And the federal bank .... well those guys just trade mini lots.
