micro/term bears want 3458... and thats a LL and connect 3297 in a previous post. 3404 is the risk
we got 3358 in the after h trading.
there is a typo.. 3458 should read 3358

What has spoiled your visit?
Yo...I gave the short version at the time. Long version starts with: Low on sleep...high on tequila!

A pretty big posse of mates were in Vegas...from far and wide. We were all talking about...and trying to solve...the problems of the world...again, high on tequila. Two very dear friends were there...and shouldn't have been! One has lost his job, and house. Two kids...rough. Another has lost his job...and his wife and three kids. Really heartbreaking stuff...pretty emotional. Nobody knew until we were there. Vegas just seemed SO wrong at the time. I didn't want to wake up there another morning. I split.

Its Thanksgiving weekend in Canada. I came home and started making preps for a big dinner tomorrow. The two boys above have been flown here...arrived this morning...along with a couple others. Few more expected tomorrow...not really sure how many, so will just be a nice day of surprises. The setting is much more appropriate...and NO tequila in the house!

Sorry for clogging the airwaves like a truly useless bastard...a real Debbie Downer!

Was an emotional time...and Vegas was just ALL wrong.

I have no analysis to offer...up then down...or down then up! Plenty of holidays...Japan, US, Canada...so moves could be muted...and then sharp. Won't be playing much until tomorrow. Good luck to those that are.

Stay useless, bastards!

gbp below 5540 better 5532 could be a 125 pip move. below 5532 gives more confidence. but the r/r is about = there. its currently about 5560.. on bigger charts the move indicated is much deeper. so on longer term charts the risk being = in the st may be worth it. the blue tl line has been broken indicating the red will also.. as well as 5532.. on a micro r/r 5580 may be enough if your lucky as the risk.. on this 15 m you can see the bounce after breaking the blue tl.. nothing to write home about.. very boring.. but it is a crack.....
it under 5532... im gonna sell the bounce.

Hey mofo! How's things, brother?

Thursday/Friday were full of ups and downs. An up? I got word Friday that I've been invited to speak on a panel at the Audio Engineering Society (AES) convention in NYC on October 22nd. It totally clashes with a prior commitment, but is an absolute honor...would be my first time (Not THE guest of honor, or anything...just a chump on a panel! ). I'm optimistic I'll be able to swing it. I'll pay money to make it happen.

In town then?

g-man...

You posted a chart recently that showed your fib-channel settings. You included a screen shot of the values, but I think only three were visible...MT4 thing. I've never used fib channels...can you include your four values...in type?

EDIT...photo irrelevant...

Can't look back to find your chart, but think you had values of: -0.5, -1.5, 2.0 ....and?

Indeed mate. Not a good setting by any means... unless intentions of self destruction were present. Feckin right though... bringin them to Canada... many things to be thankful for, even in the middle of a cluster feck. Dishearting as it seems... we must always look to the future... and i hope your buddies are doing the same.

Entire world is falling apart, somehow i think we will prevail... hopefully more enlightened, lest we repeat the same mistakes over again.
