i fell asleep. i just missed one.. i got in, but later then i should have. any way im short now.
I took it, too, at 42.

Was going to wait optimistically for a decent bounce (that one to 85 was, but I was greedy, wanting the handle), but the bonds have just gone crazy in the last 10 min, the hopium-withdrawing stock market is looking sad and dejected, and it is (or was) your number, so why not.

i was talking about the trade s i just had. i dont have time to read all the post. so i didn't post with anything in mind. when im sleeping, then post most of the time i haven't read anything here first. so it may appear im talking out of turn, but not on purpose.

Hey, Ramses...

Wasn't it you who posted some end of the world kinda thang...
This ain't the end of the world. And if there would be a start of letting the markets clear instead of the arrogant CB/theoreticians thinking they can manipulate them, it might actually be the start of a Renaissance of sorts.

Teeth brushed.

Didn't think that all, mate. Just woke up thinking about it myself a few minutes ago. Just tying to hook you up with something to set your % based orders as discussed yesterday(?). I don't give a shite what you talk about and when you talk about it. I'll figure it out...or just ask if I can't.

Happy scalping...cut them up!

I got cold feet and covered it +3 +/-. I was emotional in putting it on; I had decided I wanted a higher entry, and da plan is da plan. If it doesn't happen, so be it.

the histogram looks like osma, the lines are your macd and signal...

osma represents distance between macd and signal...

counter trend scalping this atm, shorted from 70 earlier, but took a while to move in my favour so ended up bottling out quite early...

few spikes in yen compared to recent pa, boj possibly active on the quiet...

yeah, the regular macd just has the macd as the histogram and the signal line.

or sumptin, fackin too knackered to think, shouldn't be trading in this state really, but thinking we could be putting in an interim swing low before too long..
