I just watched the speech. This ain't so good. Either the military set Mubarac up by broadcasting false expectations, or he double crossed them. It's going to be interesting.

Risk probably no so off right now.
No setup/double cross, IMHO. Just a tactical blunder on the part of Mubarak and the Generals.
September elections aren't going to work.

The best strategy would've been to step down, hand power to the VP and call for elections in 2 months. I'm very tempted to buy a few Brent contracts after watching the unwind on it today. I now consider a significant slowdown of the Suez on the table in the short term. That speech was double plus ungood.

Yep; I don't consider that to be bullish for the EUR. I'll be paying a close eye on Egypt over the next 12 hrs.
Mubarak's speech won't get 'er done. This is going to shift more power to the military ... it's their call on how long they'll tolerate this. The generals align with Mubarak. Not so much for the lower ranks in the military. I'm watching for a coup led by the Colonels.

Actually Turkey is the role model arabmuslim countries are looking at, it has a islamic party based government and leader and has managed to bring Turkey to 10% per year development far outstripping any European country, it is predicted by 2050 to surpass Germany! this would be unheard of and ppl be put in a lunatic cell just for thinking it, but it on the cards. Turkey has shown a muslimislamic partycountry can be free, tolerate and posperous all at the same time, why do you think Iran, Syria etc are reaching for closer ties? Also Tunisia and Egyptians...
Hope too..

Turkey is a beautiful Country.. and they realized something which no-one did..
Mixing with other cultures can be only beneficial, not limitation..

They've been for 500 years in South-East Europe..

And YES they are a role model..

Correction not ready. Targets around 3641, 3649 and 3656
May go higher.

Seems not to be a wave 4 but a wave 2 of one higher degree.

Maybe chart later.

Yes on both counts. Whare I watched the speech, and their commentators actually speak both languages.

There've been a lot of reports of strikes on aljazeera, including one at the Canal.

... I have no firsthand knowledge but I'm willing to bet that a similar movement is already in place. IMHO, the generals overplayed their hand by aligning with Mubarak and are now losing control of their subordinates.

By the way... You'll need to post actual trades. I'm not much on taking people's word. My only trade for today attached. I trade multiple lots. 3 lots is equal to 1.5%


You're serious right?

I am supposed to be impressed with this as a trade? You shorted on a day that dropped a buck and a half off top, and this is what you are going to use to crush my ego....

I can give you a list of people you can try and push around with this little nugget, but I am afraid you seem to be wanting to bring a knife into a gun fight and quite honestly and on a scale of witty repartee you are completely unarmed...

I actually already have my trades posted, and they actually go along with the charts that I used to take these trades...

In light of the spirited debate over the root of vsa, and the mention of the confusion it might cause to new traders, this trader's approach is a quintessential example of how trading should be done.

Not the method, necessarily. The approach. Consistency, relative simplicity, scalability.
