if this is your line.. i think we are on the same side. i got 3826.5
and a imaginary descending tl at 3831 atm .. the st pa says 3822 3849 min.. even got my m r1 at 3872

now if we touch 3756 before a new high .. i c 3686 st min
if this happens.. it will be best with the next h... if it works like they should it will be fast.

Strongly agree with 1.383x. That is my TA line in the sand (stops above) for the fade. The problem is that euro is in mania move and without some FA to put stop to the crazy move, the next stop in my charts will be 1.387x next daily R and 1.397x daily breakout point that formed the downtrend which are way beyond my acceptable levels for this week to be considered a retrace and can cause collateral damage on the downtrend.

Right now we are trading FOMC 21 sep selloff so obviously playing the minutes for the FA trigger ...otherwise ....we'll see

I would say increasing by the day considering the lack of players evident in the market

ES going up on lo volume prolly the open interest declining. Who knows though LOL

Can you overlay the US threesome indexes there?
Back in the day a inc. volatility meant dec. value.... in most cases...

In other words; if you say the volatility is to decline, its actually a pretty good bull indicator...

also that everyone is freakin negative supports my sell in 2013 strategy...
