Not just that, VIX has become a tradeable hedge instrument for equity traders at key levels. Just spend a bit of time on Google and see what you think.

fear/greed ratio ?

NP.. going in my Toolbox.. for sure... :d

im a daytrader, PA entry, SL and TP using levels..

S&P catching up with GOLD and OIL..

again if DOW Theory is RIGHT.. many traders are on Taking profit side.. the drop could happen very quick...


have a look at the BOARD
OIL -3.1% GOLD -2.1%
[Chart]
correct fear and greed, If you can when you have time put the VIX chart on top of the S&P and look back in time when big moves come. I think you will like it.

. this old dog's trying to learn new tricks.

If you can figure out a FMS/EFIS and know your way around EICAS, then technicals are not too hard to figure out.... Pilots actually make some of the best traders out there.

Yep I think the sooner America gets out of Iraq/Afghanistan the better.

The dollar will strengthen and the Euro will collapse.
Sorry to post this; somewhat off topic from EURUSD (although it plays into longer term fundamentals).

The Obama administration's 180 degrees out on which country we'll have lasting impact on. We will have made a positive change in Iraq that should benefit them for at least a decade. Our efforts in Afghanistan will diminish to near zero by the time the first poppy crop is harvested after our departure.
Iraq is largely modernized; Afghanistan is tribal. Iraq lives in the modern world; Afghanistan is like stepping back in time 1000 years.
Both efforts are the equivalent of using 100 dollar bills for fuel in an Aggie bonfire. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aggie_Bonfire

Ah, I take it you're a pilot.
FMS/EFIS and EICAS didn't click at first. Man, I've been out of the cockpit for too long.

For those wondering about the acronyms:
FMS = Flight Management System
EFIS = Electronic Flight Information System
EICAS = Engine Instrument Crew Advisory System

Just draw a fib on daily chart from dec 23rd low 3055 to today high 3430, find the price now is at 38.2 retracement which is 3291...


23.6 --> 3343
38.2 --> 3291
50 --> 3242

For the past two weeks, the pair has been on an uptrend, consistently finding strong support on the 61.8% Fibonacci Fan Line.

As the Fan Line goes higher with time, so does our pair.

Only will a break of the 38.2% Fan Line, lead for a retest of 23.6%, where we ended last week at.

Great chart Kill.... I like what you've done with the MM frame. What square setting are you using? 256/512?

Problem is if you hadn't gone to either country you wouldn't be in such a hole now.

And Iraq and Afghanistan would both be better places.

You can't use that recent high yet, I am unaware to how Fibonacci Levels react to recent highs and lows, but there are certain timeframes that you must stay at.

And it's still using the 1.3498 High.

Oh and why do you always sell when the trend is strong? Wouldnt it be more logical to wait for a pullback and buy just in case your selling against the trend doesnt work? Maybe THAt is why you are struggling in the market.
Guess the market proved my point with a 100 pip drop?

The trend wasn't strong and there werre many factors pointing to a reversal...

Just to let you know, The spike up took my S/l So I didn't even get the darn pips!!!

Did have a short on USD/JPY at the same time though and am up 50 pips so far

Dan thin market, don't think that spike would've happened in full time

Youre about to get stopped again. Practice being humble and things will start looking up for you and oh..STOP trading against the trend. The mkt likes to take out week shorts before going back to the trend and selling at the "top" , just shy of a hi isnt good as stops will most likely be hunted.
Like I said, stop got hunted but got the direction spot on...

Don't think that spike would've happened in the normal market?

Anyways... up 1% for the day...

Let's see

hmm...... i not sure which one to use. So I just use recent daily high and daily low. Just finding explanation for the 3291,maybe, LOL

By the way, where to get that fib fan? Do I have one by default in MT4?

Have the feeling the price might want to push to 3250 level. but if that really happen, the daily range will become 190pips today. Have no idea whether it is too big for daily range, anyone have any idea?

You were spot on, the low vols just plays havoc with the techs at this time of the year exaggarating "normal" moves, LH/LL and spikes up, good to pay attention to and ignore the moves against the trend.
