usdnzd just closed a long forgotten gap....

sometimes a realistic target can be .5 fib past prior extreme and within 3 times the prior corrections length of time..... such as , if the correction spanned 1 week, the target would be within 3 weeks.....

the wall of worry effect can lengthen or shorten that time by a factor of 1, depending on if the trend is up or down.....

the usdnzd is doing the easy part, the hard part is waiting 3 weeks....

//----

that dang collective jyp crosses retracement took out most of my jyp trades..... now the slow rebuilding is in process.....h

G'day Patience, yea they (Lloyds) used to published their trade recommendations before the merger, I remember I opened a demo account maybe around 3 years ago to follow their recommendations, the result wasn't impressive though.
G'day Shahab

Yep, I noticed that some trades were good and some were bad and they never used to seem to lock profits in fast enough even when they were 100 pips in profit and then the trade would go to loss. Doh! Each to his own I suppose.

I've also attached a report on the UK (if you feel like reading anymore fundies). I've had to zip it (there is only one document) as it was too big to be attached as a pdf.

This is why I just cannot go long U/Cad (Jurik RSX in red on daily, weekly and monthly). I was lucky to get out by the skin of my teeth on those positions I had up in the 1.02 area (after it initially broke support).

I know, this is what I think , but I'm trying to pick the bottom today, bottom picking is not a smart move anyway.

Well from a Jurik point of view it's not looking great for downside. Green RSX on daily, weekly and monthly - exactly the opposite of CAD. However, if Robert Prechter's well televised indice correction plays out between now and May, things could change very quickly - let's see if his timing is right this time.

I knew the .9220 R>S would be annoying in the way back down, atm .9211 needs to be taken out first as far as that S (.92110) holds A/U is bullish in Hr and above , but overall I have a gut feeling that we see USD strength later today

I think there is good chance that he will be right this time, the skyrocketing price of equity need a correction anyway, however I doubt that if we ever return to March 09 level

I quoting Igrok! This post is dated 9 March 2009 ...

Quoting Igrok
The levels of 1994 at around 3500-3700 look quite reasonable as potential bottom. I hope it will go there straight from here, slowly but surely. In case the market first makes a bounce back to 10K-11K level then it might look even worse, cause in this case the next MOT will point at zero, which would mean a complete disaster for everyone.
Let's all remain optimists though ...

It's only done 56 pips from high to low. Daily ATR for last 60 days is 99. Will be interesting to see what it does.

[EDIT] We got Fed minutes later as well.
