Too nutso for me. Nothing I can do about it anyway, whatever these bozos are showing. All it will do is make me crazy, and risk doing something stupid in reaction to something that isn't really there.

Back when the adults get home.

We they really offering it there?
Yes they were. Not a momentary "spike" either.

If that's a "glitch" that gets written out...orders canceled...I would be very surprised. I have had an account with them for years. Have never seen an erroneous spike called back. I don't "trade" with them, obviously; just trans-Atlantic crossings, for the most part. Not quite as fast as Concorde ever was, but pretty quick...and cheaper than most...especially compared to traditional bastards.

Certainly didn't think to buy at the time, because it really didn't seem cheap. Only affect on pulse was the thought of weeks full of "gap" this, and "gap" that...which really did very little to the pulse. Kinda...meh.

Open there, or hit in a few hours/days/weeks...same shit.

Full-O-Shite(?) chart...

Have seen it before on Sundays with XE. Bumpy waters ahead. Welly, welly, Wellington should be fun.

We they really offering it there? I just can't believe there would be two market makers 200 pips spread to each other. And I do believe Oanda stands by their market, at least for a little size.

were just focusing on selling euros right now....i cant really buy spot right now, its just wayyy too risky. If get some type of confirmation to buy, then i will. Until then, Im downside biased letting my algo do the work. I think were entering some type of liquidation phase....even though my analysis is showing a bounce is very near. In a situation like this, herd behaviour trumps technicals.
there is buying point for this week down there but all i will do
lock profit and wait to reload sell on any rally
No buying for me

What are they showing right now (note it at :09, if you don't mind). Oanda is active around 3550.

market got the picture last week that ben will not be coming to the rescue anytime soon. XAU and XAG are speaking the truth best. Perhaps fed is letting market regress back to FV? then they will start the printing presses. I am seeing lots of signs that market will go lower. HF managers calling it a day, massive insider selling, huge open interest against equities to the downside, SERIOUS liquidity problems in US and EU banks. This is going to make 08 look like swedish massage.....USD going to get very strong soon
So true......, this is really only the beginning of a loooooooong drop.

But funny how the media talking heads and some others try to talk people into "bargain" positions.
