Shit - all we need is a programmer and we can develop the Jackson Pollack Indicator , the JPI - could well be the next holy grail

Taken directly from "The Jackson Pollock School of Forex Charting"...

An interesting approach to be sure!


So you know where I went to school??? Your familiar with their work... LMFAO....

wow.too funny. But yea, I hear you ctic. Just some people I guess.
I'm also with you with how the usd/chf isn't following the usual correlation it has with fibre.I've been working at getting better with correlation relationship trading, but this one is throwing me off. I've also been trying to work the usd/yen but get burned with it as well.

I think it might be best to just wait until after the new year starts, but if you look at charts at the end of the day you see some really good setups.I'll hopefully be up and running with mbtrading by then as well.I've researched and noticed that you might have to pay a little more for a trade,but overall its worth it.

that doesn't seem to be the only correlation that's broken. DJIA/SP500 is diverging away from Cable/Fibre

true. true. But since I'm new to trying to play correlations, I stick to just different currency pairs.When I'm at school I sometimes pop into the business school building and see what the djia/sp500 are doing to see what cable/fibre is doing. But now, it's anybody's guess. Hopefully its just because of the holidays.

Eulogy, how do you like oanda? I'm with them now and although I do LOVE the spreads, I can't help but to notice the huge difference between their pa and others on mt4. I still do my charting with my fxsol demo for the 4 decimal pricing or my live account with IBFX. I just can't take the 4 pip cable spread on ibfx. But the charting on oanda is too off for me. I wish for my birthday (dec. 17) or christmas I could've gotten oanda to have mt4.My gold trading is a nice treat though with oanda.

Oanda suits my purposes just fine. Generally low spreads, no commision, no requotes, minimal slippage. Only thing that bugs me is the fact they have a limited history, no volume and no W1 or M1 charts. I use MT4 demo for charting to make up for it. PA is slightly different, I've frequently noticed that MT4 prices are always around 5-15 pips below that of Oanda's (no effect on spreads) and this varies across different pairs. Just a strange quirk that i've had to keep in mind when looking at my MT4 charts and trading off the Oanda platform.

yea it absolutely took me a long time to get used to the chart difference. Lost a few pips trying to make my trades like I was on mt4.

Certainly not a definitive answer however my bias is that Cable will hang around this range for the next few days. The European FX selloff seems to be triggered by the failed ECB auction earlier today although YM/ES uptick certainly was bewildering given the very bad data released. My thought is that YM/ES will be given the tank once volume comes back into the market. The first pairs that should be hit and most likely hit the hardest by this move would be AU and NU who up to now seem to have resisted any downside. GU and EU should hang around a bit before joining the party.

A/u n/u have historically been good because of their high interest rates. Face it, if you had an extra billion or two lying around would you want to keep it in the US that pays shit or put it in the country with the highest interest rates.... there are other reasons too but that is a big one.

perhaps, but certainly aus economy has pretty much flatlined in the last few months. retails particularly have had it tough this xmas and the housing boom that's been feeding the economy has stayed at the same level for the past year now. China's not going to be continuously feeding Australia for much longer especially with their own rate hikes and the expensive A$.

Can't say much about the Kiwi though, that economy's so small and shallow that even a single yard will push it to crazy high/lows.

Betting on rampant inflation coming the US soon with the 'shit' interest rates.

Fairly decent bounce off a short-term daily TL and a wicky candle. 165 pip daily range, NY moves typically over by now, so we may be done. Tryin' long, with a BE (perhaps) just below the last low. Partial TP at 1.54 and we'll see what Asia wants to do.
Quoting Beljevina
Took some minimal pips up to 1.538 and outta the rest; Asia wants to get in on the ECB mess of today & will like push this down further.
Arghh! Current price: 1.54, right up against the DPP.

Grr ... Note to self: stay in the trade! This Asia timeframe I find is love it and hate it, all at the same time!

Now, usually the DPP is a bounce, and often Asia PA brings things back right where we started, which, I would expect to get revisited, before he with the most moving power decides what next.
