Nothing like manic and panic moods. Markets have such fragile memory when uncertainty outweigh rationality that I wonder how many will blow when we get back to the boring stable economic cycle...meanwhile, let's enjoy the volatility.....

Exactly... I have had to learn in this environment over the last 3 years. Once we settle down, this is going to be a cake walk. Provided, of course, the entire system doesnt' completely collapse.

I think I am going to start tilling up the back yard for a garden regardless... LOL.

To be completely honest not necessarily. Low volatility will imply a massive restructuring of our short term TA trading plans. I don't know if you were trading before in the 2004/2006. It was pretty much untradable intraday below weekly (although on the positive side stops were a lot smaller even with an awful entry) in most trading instruments with steady trends only moved by reports spikes...

In any case, we are still far from that now so we have plenty of time to adapt later.

and the bank is backed up by the country that cant print. so when the banks have to keep more cash on hand. that money is out the system. if the bank losses deposits (withdrawn) or the bank just fails. a country w/o the money is bankrupt. one bad check away. when 1.4 is promised and banks have to keep more euros on hand. its out the economy, w/o printing, causing a lack of growth, and stagnation. it make the euro more scarce and more valuable. more valuable hurts the whole ez since its tourism and export driven. until the stagnation of the economy causes it to fall. w/o growth the ponzi scheme don't work.
they are inuring a ez depression. money goes where it can breed. the advantage the u.s. will have is we import a lot of crap. import prices rise and we import less. making us manufacture more at home. bringing down the trade deficit. money follows where it can breed. investors in europe will seek this.

Euro look ready for a breather to last breakout point as soon as NY opens and fails to breach the overnight intraday highs. Next resistance 1290xx is way too far for push without pullback in stocks so waiting for pullback to load in ES and small breather on the euro to last break out point on the rejection of H4 highs... GL all during the US session...
