I dont really see a reason as to why not, other than its gonna start thining out there...any rallies should be capped by 22/25...I still expect 4178ish to print..

Stopping quickly, and off for the weekend. ZB got within one tick of 141 this morning post NFP, and may still do it: back to 140+30/32 (two ticks).

To put the bond move this week in perspective, though, on an Exchange-Equivalent-Margin basis, the EUR would need about a 350 pip move: and it did about that. (In spite of what the gold and silver guys say about margins being set to try to kill the move, they are all about typical ATR levels, and they're usually pretty damn close to reality).

I'm getting a little bit more USD bullish, but for the worst possible reason: deflationary pressure. No longer 100% sure the best political direction for the administration right now isn't in that direction. If you're in a deep hole, one way out is to keep digging till you hit water, and turn it into a swimming pool.

This election is going to be all about the economy, and both sides need some scapegoats. The banks look like they may get the tap for that job, on both sides.

But for right now, it's the Weekend. Don't get too sunburned at the picnic.

I've been doing well! I don't know how the heck I pulled my monthly goal out last month... pretty sure it came out me arse though!!! hehe...

Hey as long as you come out on top that's all that matters. Sometimes losing months are just part of the game as well, but best not to have as many of those as possible! Things should start returning back to norm here (is there such a thing??) lol...

haha... I'll double down on a plane with ya and you can teach me how to fly!! I bet i'd have a nack for it... landing might be another question... but eh!! lol!

As for OSU, I havn't been paying much attention to tell you the truth... "scandal" after scandal... been getting a bit to whiney for my tastes... and i'm not a big follower of football as it is. Then you got the NFL doing the lockout crap again... they all need to GTFO. Bastads! Complaining about only making a few mill a year playing a game that they love to play.

Glad things are well... looking forward the last bit of the year here!

Hope you didn't bang to many planes up practicing that one!! hehe... yes, always dreamed of flying though... it really is just a sum of resources and time right now... I actually get to do the in-class stuff for free... so I may just be making up excuses. Don't want this to turn into one of few regrets that never came to be. That's a lot of skydives!! How fun!! Never done that either... but I have no fear of it. I'd be the first person jumping straight out of the plane if they'd let me! haha.... Opportunity never presented itself and I haven't gone out of my way to do it. Maybe I need to add that to the list for next summer. My first project that I need to finish up first is adding on additional 400-500 horsies onto my GTO. Expensive hobby :/

close in 7m.. is another. this 4260 area is important for bias. the h close after this one in 7 m should be st direction. if below its a stronger bear signal. for 4150. at 4150.5 area a decent N bounce cant be discounted or unexpected.
atm a touch at 4184 should do 4150 where a bounce is expected. but st formation suggest 4133? if 4184 is touched. (? bounce level) its getting late in the day. a week close below 4150.5 should be considered bearish. for this to happen equity's and most other commodity's should sell off. and should drag all with it on a bigger tf. since we have been to 4150 many times in the past few months. we don't have to bounce there. we can continue. 500 pips from recent high 45xx -500... about 4000

no bang ups but was a bit nervous on them. skydiving you just flared so that is what i would do flying and got over it pretty quick. i take it your GTO is a car? yea, i am a girl who knows nothing about cars
