Ah crap. Thank you. Forgot about it. The last of my 3 numbers: 4436, 4155 and 3867.

How could I forget about it? Tired or stupid. I'll say tired.

not this time, it's a retracement-level on the 2008-chart. on the bull-chart (2007), the um starts at 3866... but atm, my eyes are on the bear-chart.

Im still targeting parity

I thought I was crazy callin for parity at 7890... as did everyone else....

but we def still need some major FA to get there... till then im holding my UC longs and CJ shorts...

missed the boat on EC...
Well you are not that crazy TA wise is just the last monthly swing low.

However, FA (RISK) has rule CHF and is still far from over. I personally think 95.0x 105.0x should be the value area for the UC but will need time and calm... Time will be easy with patience but calm...that doesn't sound that realistic short term ...

I just stopped home for a couple hours to catch up a few things, read a few pages here, checked past 4 days run in simulation and ate my heart out (would have been short since 42 handle with one low cost fake (the Swissy), one countermove for a few), read ZH to catch up, and watched the Santelli / Tom Friedman exchange from CNBC posted there.

Ken, Rick Santelli is a real pits kind of guy. If Friedman had been in Chicago, as you have come to say, Rick would have had him at the Horse, and probably not the first time for him. Real no-bs, cut to the bone kind of guy. Not at all CNBC.

Okay, have to go.

Always good to have you check in, Q.

Glad you're well...poor Texas...sure is taking a licking.

I love Santelli. It IS tough to completely bash CNBC when he is around.

Pity you weren't around to place those trades...plenty still to come, though, when you've finished what you're doing. Was that Flipper that would have had those results?

All the best...continue to take good care.

No, that's IF I had been running the trend following logic on EUR. Thing was, I had pretty much decided that, in the face of the lawsuits on Friday, the box the Fed is in, and the LIBOR going to hell at the end of last week, that there was a good chance of a REAL repricing move in EUR, and maybe it should be turned back on. I didn't even check to see what Flipper would have done.
