This will take place at Wednesday the 29th of June from 1 hour before London Opening. It will last probably 2 hours.

I know fti, you are not very happy with it. But becuase I have promised it, I will keep on to my word. You know, the value of our word is the only thing we have in this world ;-)
I can promise to you, that I'll not do any "magic tricks" or use any type of indicators....

nuke update:
Haute-Normandie, one of the largest plants known French series of incidents over a month. Employees are worried. The leaders of the Central relativize.

The central Paluel, Haute-Normandie, known for a month a series of disturbing failures, said Wednesday the information site "Mediapart." Developed to generate a wave of panic among its employees.

The causes of panic today are many: "repeated leaks, discharges of radioactive gas, triggers alert tags, contamination of workers," list "Mediapart."

A building site was evacuated several times due to harmful gases found in air, bring the witnesses interviewed by the news site. The repeated triggering of the alarm has further increased the anxiety of employees, panicked, rushed on the provision of iodine tablets in case of contamination.

Sixteen employees affected

The situation came to a head during the weekend of Pentecost. The No. 3 reactor of the plant was halted to address some leaks. The sixteen employees of EDF dispatched to the site announced that they had inhaled the occasion of xenon, a radioactive gas.

Information minimized by the communication service of the Central Paluel, which indicates that xenon is safe, it is removed by the body as the cigarette smoke.

Although the gas leak is repaired, another leak of water this time, still affecting the site. The failure of fuel cladding (the first barrier to the radioactive material) would be involved. EDF has yet decided to let it run the damaged reactor in the state for at least another year.

Corked wine

Again, the central Paluel perspective: leaks are concerned that "micro-leaks" for its leaders. There is no cause for alarm. "Work with a small leak is not serious in itself. It's like wine, sometimes it's corked, "says the communication service of the French Central.

According to "Mediapart" In total, between 2001 and 2008, thirty of the same type of leaks have been detected on French nuclear power plants. "Neither frankly catastrophic, not really reassuring, the situation illustrates Paluel daily that the system is vulnerable," says the website information.

According to this very short blog post, it's nothing more than a rumour:

With the French nuclear rumor being dispelled, EUR/USD is on the mend, back up to 1.4400…Options related offers remain in the 1.4400/20 area, traders report.

I would have expected to see a news article about it by now if there was any substance to the rumour...

EDIT: Am I a paranoid Brit, or is it more than coincidence that the only member of the MPC who keeps calling for an expansion of the asset purchase facility also happens to be the only American on the committee? Why on earth do we have foreign nationals working for the BOE?

euro near 1.45
soon will be 1.35 if when we finished with PIIGS.
one thing is leaders without honour is the in key.
all polotics and no honour, cannot figure out how voting works so badly.
need good upstanding leadership.
is difficult when people keep "bundling" deals into the system.
please bundle honour as number 1 citeria.
seems the whole free world's economics is in hands of NGOs lobbys and private institutions.
So whats the function of govt. other than taxation? oops, and war.
Still cannot figure it out.govts now not control sovergn trade policies,monetary policies,just look at greece, not even control their legal tender. All because want grow fast. if i want grow fast i'll leverage 1:1000 .
but i know if i do that sure i gonna hit the wall.
Seems gone are the days , people keep their feets on the ground, work with their hands and brains, and live and grow within their means. Every one wants be billionaires overnight. So if have mind in the clouds in the sky, surely splash is the price to pay. surely is bad mindset, brought about by the fast computer era. All driving their life at breakneck connish speeds and no control.

just listen to this funny chap John again. He makes good sense.

yeah , borrow OPM to grow, with no productivity to sustain nor support the borrowing.
When margin calls comes , is forced liquidation times in unrecoverable spin into the deep blues.
Rule number one. Never get caught in others jet wash, you will never never ever recover fronm the spin.
Never ever ever risk what you cannopt afford to lose. Same goes with people and same goes with countries.
This the same thingy created the sub prime loans bubble. Thsi the same that created the credit cards bubble. And now we see PIIGS grappling with same. And why? my opinion lost of soverign control and management, due to reliance on extenal goodwill ,also greed. So now where's the Goodwill? 30 years ago the nihon finance had to deal with their "property bubble" Today seems no one learned the lessons yet.

In money matters, "trust " is a dirty word. Any time i hear any one tell me. "Oh trust me." I packup and run. I had seen it all before. Everytime i gets screwed. no exceptions. Only in GOD , I trust. But i am sinner man , so God, not trust me.
These days , people sell everything based on projected capacity, nothing tangleble, only dreams. One of these is equity. no longer anything is based on NTA.(net tangable Assets) all buying and selling goodwill only. remember the nasdaq bubble? incubators? What created the bubbles? I call this vacuum.
why you think these days have Angels funds, to me more like the devil.
Today even business is the same, you want buy anything good, bundled with it is all kinds of parasites and shit. The paradigm shift in modern business models. The new age. What a connish line. They left out honour.

You know whats the opposite of honour,? is default.

OK, back to my grave.

Hi FTI,

Hope you are doing well I have a question regarding your method of using a scout and would really appreciate it if you would be kind enough to clarify.

I really like this method because it allows one to build up a position but I'm just not sure if I'm utilizing it correctly.

For example today I saw a sell opportunity of E/U at 1.442ish so I took a small scout position. Then when it went to down and then up to around 1.44 at which point I took more sell positions (soldiers) but then price went back up to around 1.4425. My question is, is the correct way to utilize this selling more at this higher level or to just let be? (I'm trying to use the 1, 3, 5 lots strategy)

Sorry if this is a real noob question but I'm really keen to learn

Thank you in advance for your help and anyone else who can clarify please feel free to jump in

Hi MaMood,

I rested ...
I read your invitation ...
The idea is very good.
FTI Why not be happy?
You are a good student teaching FTI.
But for you it's a very big challenge and responsibility.
You have a good test for the increased pressure ...
This can lead to good results in the future ...
If all goes well ...

@ cuthbert,
Love you too.
And thanks for the help, is has some effect. feels a tickle in the heart.
like someone in there mining Thanks again.

@kiwidoc,
The MM is no rocket science, needs some getting used to, because is a double edge sword. No give to minors, it can hurt them.
The MM is useless unless you had internalised most begining parts of this thread. Because is only 1 component in a whole mix that is required. It's no system, is a lifestyle. Without the decipline and market experience on how to use it effectively, can become expremely dangerous thing. You need know how to dance markets, then the MM has merits. Problem is, it cannot be taught, only can be learned.
Also without right mindset, will also cut yourself. Worst than the golf swing, you force it and splash.
Put 2 years study and practise, it will come to you.

Talk about golf, I used to play to singles, maybe playing to ladies now. Its been a long long time and my king cobras are getting rusty.
Reminds me, when i started playing , dare went on bank's competition and took the wooden spoon.
