anybody care to share how December differs from other months? (other than lack of liquidity). I have yet to live through December as a forex trader so pointers would be appreciated.

Things fly around a little bit faster (spikey), lots of consolidation as well. Other then that, business as usual. On par for how chaotic this year has been so far, you may not even notice any difference.

My question is... is this reflective that less people are filing for unemployment because they are obtaining jobs... or is it that they are no longer eligible for unemployment.

If I recall correctly, around the 20th was when it was really bad last year. But I was also only swing trading. I seem to recall price being in the same spot after 3-4 days.

yeah the spin gets old. but i guess they are trying to avoid world panic. with things like we are cutting 3% of the workforce to deal with austerity. so instead of getting a bureaucrat check for working. they will get a unemployment for not working. and these 3% are a containment when you add them to the ones already not working. few of them will be able to pay a mortgage, adding pressure on banks and value. few of them will buy a new beamer or Volkswagen. Or even pay taxes to support the gov.. all this as cost goes up each day not including the bond rates. people are so gullible.

All very true

After this move today I really dont see anyway the EU treaty gets done... it needs all countries to participate or it wont happen

Problem is each and every one of those countries will have to give up a large part of its soverignty and I just cant imagine the netherlands and Finlands doing that when they are healthy and functional. Makes 0 sense they would be willing to give over total control to the ECB to mentize debt(which is basically the only way out of this thing now... temporarily)
In addition to that crap PIIGS are in all likelihood mulling over if it isnt better to just drop out before they get absolutely steamrolled by Germany and the 4th reich

bottom line is if the EZ does this than Europe is under complete German control.... and I just cant imagine anyone wants that...
