what is the haircut %? 20 50 80 100?... if its your bank. will you clear your account? if you close your account and others do the same. what happens? what happens if its a multiple of banks? what if most are in Europe. where does the money go? each account closed that goes somewhere else leaves less to backup the bad haircuts. the haircuts are not priced in. because we don't know what banks hold what or the % of the haircut. if money is pulled, the ecb better add a 0's to the trillion euro deal.. if money is...
will money come to u.s. markets, as euro losses value is my question.. will it decouple from the s/p? is up down and down up? will saving the euro destroy the euro?

Any views for today/tomorrow mate?...Closed last position on ES before NY and flat across the board now....euro seems to have found the equilibrium price a +/-100 weekly range but the movers should be coming after we clear the EZ politicians today....

Oil is the only one that keep holding the weekly break out but inventories and EZ move still left so. Gold still some ticks from resistance. CHFs and JPY flirting with intervention levels, AUD and NZD at S/R and indexes below weekly R....so nothing tradable here for NY.....

EUR mess is same as USD mess 2008 [nov-dec] exactly same confusion, rumors for rumors before TARP and QE1.
[every single dude goes in public to express himself. politicians are not doing their JOB, but they are focused [occupied with gambling, betting and trading.. so that's why we see what we see..]

Gold and Silver

posted today;

I am in gold & silver only.. [for now] buying every single Pulback.. so far very clean and tidy and not so sensitive on every NEWS or rumor.. breakouts are cleaner and with some realistic SL and TP, goes better then any FX pair [at the moment]

Silver looking to test 36.60 and gold towards 1800-1850. 4H [TF] gave us a breakout yesterday, while still in possible flag formation - momentum looks strong..


the breakout [yesterday] is still enigma for myself as a timing. Just before the EU summit. Maybe it is a fundamental shift, or just seasonal Buying as a result of Indian Diwali Festival. however, we'll see in few days as followUp .

cheers..

I'm starting to think the best trades this week to take are the ones where you trade cash for mojitos.

I am looking a lot lower before the announcement sub 1.380x so there is a glimmer of hope for trading the euro today or tomorrow. Still inside of the range and thats pure noise in my charts and barely 30 ticks below the roll so far...

We'll see
