The "Invisible viewers" ratio has crossed 25%. That may be a signal of something. Damned if I know what, though.

A metric that bears monitoring and analysis.

ZH just posted something at the top of their site which says some of the same things I did in my post above. So the EUR dodges another bullet, and the foolish shorts will be proven wrong again.

Now, if we can just get the memo to the bond market.

ask ur pup what the next tade should be... im certain she will have the answers
She said...hold onto what you got...papa!

Still holding my shorts. Ran into a friend while out. He had his dog and was going for a burger and a pint. I joined him. I suppose if 3720 gives way, I'll close out there.

This reminds me ever so much of the lyrics to "Changes in Latitude" that I'd go and You Tube it except I'm still memory bound until tomorrow morning.

3720 might be a little tight and very likely? This market looks so hopiated to me, what with the big 2 Day FOMCAGANZA!!! this week, and so much bad news that all the parents and uncles will have to act, that there could be some upside.

Honestly, I think the fundamental response is very asymmetric right now; any bad news or threats to be ignored; any shreads of hope to be bought outright.

I'm sorry, but this is dull. There's nobody posting here, and the E/U thread, as I expected, is quite net bullish, with the highest call being 1.42, even without the necessity of closing the gap sooner rather than later.

Be back later.

Yep...Friday's low of 3753ish would be nice to see a test of; does it bump its head...or blow right through and slap the gap-less hole? 60 pips away right now...maybe Frank...maybe London...maybe next month.

Yeah...I see a few bastardly levels down in the valley below.

Nothing will surprise me from here. 100pip drop from Wellington open didn't so nothing other than 4150 today will really make me raise an eyebrow. Moscow can be good for some WTF excitement when they come around; that's a ways away yet, though. Maybe China will get cooking.

I took off for a weekend last month
Just to try and recall the whole year
All of the faces and all of the places
Wonderin where they all disappeared
I didn't ponder the question too long
I was hungry and went out for a bite
Ran into a chum with a bottle of rum
And we wound up drinkin all night

Chorus:
Its these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes
Nothing remains quite the same
With all of our running and all of our cunning
If we couldnt laugh we would all go insane
