Dirty bastard AJ perking up again. Hoping for a quick rejection.
I took a small position, waiting for LO before I do anything of substance...

Good stuff. I'm in a similar position...suiting me just fine for this kind of action.

If that photo would resolve down to 64 pixels square or whatever it is that icons have, I'd use it is as Flipper's desktop and form bar icon.

Probably going to enter some chop here until some adults show up. I'm not going to watch. But for right this minute:

3550 today. Whole damned farm.

Will see what I can do.

Kinda why I posted it...to give you an idea for the "retail box" when you put him on sale at Best Buy, and the like!

^ That one is 64 x 64. This one is 48 x 48, which I think desktop icons are...

I ain't putting nothin' on sale. Those guys creep me out. I saw one today on some site: "unemployed waiter steals idea from the big guys and becomes millionaire at 26" Guy in the photo looked like he was still an unemployed waiter, standing in front of a nice car.

The only one who I ever admired was the Video Professor: teach people not to use the dvd drive as a cup holder, just charge them shipping and handling, and make a ton of money. That's the way it should be done in America.

Yeah, but I think it has to distill down to an .ico file/format. I know there's shareware that does the trick. I'm going to bookmark that and check.

Time for bed.

Why? The 48x48 above has pretty good resolution. The bar (whatever you call the blue bar at the top of a window) one might be a little problematic, since I think that might go all the way down to like 16 sq.

That's what the ico does, probably: handles up/down sizing. I don't have a clue.

And while we were horsing around with trying to dress him up a little, Flip trades through a head fake, and gets long again:

Will take a quick look to see if I can do it. Just hope it holds some resolution.

Did ok overnight. Left a partial on from last night...was up +100 at one point this morning. Had a nap...now at airport sending a few mates on their way. That partial close at +1.2 pips a short time ago! Hadn't even seen price since about noon EST...bastards! Put another one a while ago...short at 3665. Not a great entry...best I could do from phone. Will see where it gets to.

Nice job, I could never trade with an MobilePhone. Even hard with a laptop...

Waiting for EU to at least test Monthly Pivot and the 1.3700 area today. If the reaction there is strong I could consider a short for 30-40ps.

P.S. Flippers are better ON a girl....

Morning!

Placed with Dukascopy. Their app is pretty slick. Can even have indicators on your charts. Charts are very decent, so long as your signal is strong. iPhone's screen is just big enough. Much happier just monitoring and closing trades from the phone, but do saddle up often enough...particularly if I'm on the road. Just takes a while to get used to...and you want to have a pretty good idea of the state of the charts...SD zones etc...before doing it.
