Could be my lucky day.

My stupid ass went short at 1.40916 last week right at a bottom, with my stop loss at 1.44965. $10 dollars a pip !!!!!

Came within about 39 pips of stopping me out before it went short.

By end of next week Ill either be super foooked, or super lucky.
Holy crap

Well, took a couple days, but TK backfill complete...

Now whut?
The question really is why the 10yr treasuries gain on bad data today. ISM and ADP were horrible, NFP is likely to turn out below 170k. So the question remains why the fuck did treasury yields go below 3% and thus the prices of 10year actually move up high?

This is the trading price for the 10yr on ECBOT...

no bulls yet.. we did not retrace .. even after h so for.. very bearish pa.. atm.. close below 4317.5 should bring 4277.9
Like everyone else here I am trying to work out your hourly levels just posted.

They are generally 14.7 pips apart, except for A and B and the level in between, they are 18.2 pips apart. Why are these different, please? Retracements?

Also which candle do the mid candle, upper and lower mofu refer to, please? The H4 maybe?

If it goes down with this data in the middle of the week, latent factor behind must be very strong. The only unusual thing is Europe bank holiday.

Heres the thing:

Treasuries are one of three factors on how to measure currency strength, the other two being foreign reserve currency holdings and sovereign debt and general debt levels.

Measuring dollar strength based on treasury demand isnt as easy as it sounds. Treasuries will indicate an incoming dollar demand when:

a) Treasury yields rise high enough to trigger demand
b) Treasury yields go much lower ( as todays showcase below 3% yield ) triggereing a sudden surge in demand

Yields correlate inversely to price ( obviously you cant have high yields and high price)

Higher price always means there is more demand than supply in the markets. My question is:

Why the fuck would people be buying 10year treasuries of a country which on a federal level has hit its debt ceiling, is about to be downgraded on their credit worthiness by SP and moodys.

Especially given the harsh data feedback today? Its a reasonable assumption to presume that people will always move to safe havens when equitys (stockmarket etc) become unstable or show inherent signs of weakness....

but this is just outright bullshit. Im just thanking whatever higher power there is that ive stopped doing a lot of currency trading and moved to oil and metals instead for now... Because this is just blatant manipulation at its finest.

Im done with the Euro for now...

you are seriously asking? what was happening to the yields 2-3 years ago on days like these?

I mean.. list reasons of why and take your pick. we all expect the investors to be rational, but we all know its not true. Its a subject of interpretation of who do you trust
