ES and USDX are still in range .....no direction given yet and CHF is in a tight range....sideways...

Not sure is OIL is going to give the direction as Gold is starting to drop....still under 1600

very little respect for the levels we put on the charts
I dont even use my levels anymore TBH,their quite useless, but I quote them so people think I'm using them...kinda like when I used to work in an office, I would always pretend to be talking on the phone, to look busy....

It does not matter what system you use..the past few days were not the easiest to trade. It is choppy and messy with very little respect for the levels we put on the charts
Oh, I know. These dustbins are my little project right now but I'm still doing my regular trading as well to keep the coffers full. It's been a struggle all week.

The good news is that this is the first negative day I've had out of seven trading dustbins. Small sample size but still positive signs considering how difficult the PA has been.

Yup, all waiting for tomorrow. Took a few shekels out of a short with PtL earlier, other then that, not much worth trading on this pair.

The !d!ots sure came out of the woodwork on this range play today..... is someone really using a pastor to trade oil? The average retailer is stupid, but he is really taking the mickey.

Well, none of this smells right to me. The vol is picking up in the Treasuries (2 up last night, 1 down this morning in ZB), but going nowhere. The USA CDS are implying a double notch downgrade, and size is getting large (zero hedge has an interesting recap today).

I'm going to sit it out. Long optioned some USD quoted pairs, but expecting too much fat tail-high middle price action to feel good about trading it. Anything. Good time for a few days of recreation.

Good luck and be careful.
Very good post Oldquant. I wasn't paying attention to detail in Treasuries so thanks for that. I see what you mean and it makes a lot of sense.

Gold dropping means risk is on, however that does not correlate with equity pairs, so that is just a bit of covering of 1609, so you can expect that to bounce a bit if you are trading it.

Oil dropping is on the back of the numbers and further release of reserves of the 99.

So in both cases there is another explanation and don't go using it for checking on correlation on this pair. CDS's of the periphery actually dropped today, indicating a further move up in EUR, have a look too at 2 yr T, and you can clearly see the indecision the market is in right now. The race of the ugly sisters is neck and neck, neither is pulling ahead convincingly right now.

Freakin madness. Maybe we should sell euro as that Kazakh farmer sold his goat and the Chinese guy that bought it, heard from his shaman, that the Uruguayan CB was buying Pesos. Oh and the markettrader in Timbuktu said that silver was going down, as the price of coal was no longer correlated to the Renminbi showing a further strenghtening of the dollar, all indicating EURUSD is going down.
