Oh you know that's true! What a tune anyway, I love rap in Spanish, so many things end in -o or -a, it's a rappers paradise.

I'm not trading this, I'm trading eurcad but 1.04 looks interesting. Not a very clear trend or anything though.

Chris, am I right in thinking that these days you take more trades from the weekly than the daily? Place your trade, let the noise happen and come back 2 months later to count your money?

Anyone else learning or speak Espanol o Italiano (I'm learning both).
I learned a bit of Spanish while working in Central America.

My wife is Brazilian so I am currently learning Portuguese.

They say the two are similar but try speaking Spanish to a Portugese and see how far you get! I tried it in the Algarve on holiday last time and it was weird, every other word worked fine but the inbetween words were way off!

Edit: Not to mention Italian! The woman in the shop where I bought the beer and asked her for some cold ones out of the fridge instead of the warm ones from the shelf looked completely nonplussed at my more or less (maybe was, maybe wasn't but made no difference) fluent Spanish. Anyway, my wife and I have been married for 3 years nearly and we both speak English... more or less...

Looks as if I may have taken at least one GBP trade correctly.

Entered this trade on the break of the BUOB. Trading this on a box trade against trend. Looks as if it may have reached resistance will probably close trade now.

nice trade. You are correct about the resistance too. The GBP is running up against the same on the USD.

We are getting very close to the end of the pull back on the Pound IMO.

As you know, I've been long the pound for a couple of weeks here, but I'll share my view for short opportunities:

Great trades Low. I am short GBP/USD at the moment but hanging on in there for a retrace.

Havent seen you on private forum recently hope youre doing ok, looks like it with those trades.

Thanks Maggi, I wish both our trades success.

It's nice to see you here. I've struggled with self-sabotage a bit over the last few months, and so I don't always feel like I have much to add to the conversation.

If these trades actually hit their targets I will honestly be surprised as hell, but I am finding that having targets really helps me stay in them.

Cheers.

I know what you mean.

Knowing a little Spanish has actually made it harder to learn Portugese.

My wife speaks Portugese, Spanish, English and Italian.

Thank God.

The US had another good goal disallowed yet again. This one was scored in injury time to win the group.

As a side note - the largest amount of fans traveling to S.A. for the cup? The US.

We have all the money to travel with right now

Soccer is growing here. It will never pass basketball, baseball or American football, but it is becoming more popular.

I LOVE American football, but it zaps all of our top male athletes for the Olympic games. Imagine our 6'4" 365 lbs. monster DT in the Olympic lifting contest. Or Bo Jackson and Barry Sanders on a soccer field.

Anyway, GO USA!

I see the reasoning, but you are using a two touch 6 month trendline as evidence that a 3 touch 12 month trendline and a 3 touch 2 year trendline are going to be violated. I think the highs in November 2009 must be included.

Your counter trend trade certainly has done well, but its still counter 6 month trend, 12 month trend and 3 year trend. On top of that it is going to have to cut through the 200 day SMA to get to 1.58.

I thought your Yen trade was brilliant, but this one screams sell to me. There are at least 6 different resistances it will have to fight through (2 6 month + trendlines, a 12 month fib retrace and 3 month fib 61 retrace, 1.50 psych level, 1.48-1.50 actual S/R and the 200 day SMA) just to get past 1.51. If it gaps through 300 more pips, I might be on the buy to 1.58.

Everything you just typed is completely spot-on. Like I said, if these hit their targets, I'll be as surprised as anybody else.

On a side-note: Rate raises (here in the US) have usually had a dampening effect on gold prices, and the market had been pricing one in, but today the FOMC tells us it probably ain't gonna happen....I think I could be a buyer around 1200.

We are about to make a move in rugby as well. There is a young kid from the University of Utah named Thretton Palamo that is simply inhuman. He is the next Jonah Lomu from New Zealand. This kid is an absolute tank.

You will know him next year, because he is also going to be a running back for the Utes. An absolute animal he is. He's a 6'4" 245 lbs. Flyhalf that simply runs through people. I saw him at the collegiate sevens championships here in Columbus, and is probably as fast as a wide receiver. Just amazing.

And he's only 18.
