The question was raised at one point this week: Why the hell is Asia that passive atm? Why don't they even backfill the charts? Any ideas?
This is how Asia use to be. I think we were just spoiled by the markets the last few months.

I remember just starting out and only trading asia... I had a pretty hard time losing more than 20-30 pips a night.

Stops in place. 8Hr & 5min charts. Long is my read for moment although my sneaky broker first
set my automatic stops to Cloggie's number 24 which makes me a bit suspicious

hm... that's strange, I considered these 20 pips ranges as exceptions since 2010, really.

given, that they must be long eu to the brim, that's kind of a strange behaviour. I'm sitting on coals (sidelines) for now, waiting for confirmations of either direction.

Not sure, beyond about the last year I really can't say I knew any better, regardless. lol

It is annoying though. I wish Australia and Asia could give us a bit of a pounding.

With new, clean restarted servers, they're off!

And, this from Z H's last post:

"Whether the combination of high short interest, month-end window-dressing, HFT, and hopium is to blame, the rebalancing across asset classes that is supposed to be what helped us rally so impressively in the last few days on vapor-thin volumes does not appear to have been 'rebalanced' in bond markets."

So is Z H starting to read this thread, now?

Well...I've said it before: We are all Tyler Durden. Who's to say I wouldn't happen to be a ZH contributor?
