ron paul is a fuckin nut. it just depesses the hell out of me to see his regressive shitstain of "ideas" packaged as somehow "progressive". sure he has been consistent but if he were totally consistent he'd get up on stage in full white robe and hood cuz that's who he really is.
He is a ghost??

nobody listen's to me its pointless wasting my breath....

i pretty much had it on point last week... about a week and a half ago i told ya "see u at 3000" sorry i was like 14 pips off... my bad..

we hit the 2980is stop level so on fri it looked like we were headed back up to retest the level...

so im kinda lost at the moment... i guess news will be the key ... for now a retest of the top is in order...


kinda looks like we may open lower

Ya timing is always key.... As u know i def know... And even a Lil miss timing can cost an intraday trader his ass( like when I jumped the gun early on those swissy longs a few months back)

I agree with ya though... Market seems ripe to consolidate after the up move waiting for this Greek thing, fomc, and the Gbp GDP numbers

All intraday for me till after fomc

We've definitely got to tag 3000, probably plenty of stops just above

Anybody know of a good schedule for sovereign bond auctions in the EZ?

also greece will get its money it needs negotiations will not fall apart... to much riding on it... so as soon as shorts realize they will finally give up and start covering.... although we should give you another chance on a dip to cover here, and for ppl that missed the boat to jump on.. so see u at 3200...

that really is still up for debate... simple fact of the matter is do the major hedge funds want to take the 70% haircut on their GGB exposure OR do they want to go ahead and let greece default so they can get ALL their money back via calling in their CDS's

Remember all it takes is ONE HF to block this entire thing... honestly all it would take to block this entire deal is one hedge fun to buy out a 3 billion euro blocking stake of UK-law Greek bonds ... then greece has absolutely 0 leverage and it is a forced credit event.... means a massive free payout and taxpayer bailout for europe to the hedge funds who are holding the defaulted GGB's...
Thats the problem with greece forcing this cramdown( which will be no doubt fought in court like it has every other time in history)... the PIIGS have 1.3Trill euros in Local law bonds, 800 Bil Euros in foreign law.... if greece presses this deal then 800 Bil go completely bidless.....


its a clusterfuck of epic proportions no matter what happens... Greece NEEDS to gtfo of the EZ... and fast... itll be painful for the EZ because then they need to deal with the MUCH larger problems of portugal and Big Bad italy(which should cause the EZ to completely dissolve since Germany wont be willing to bouy their monsterous debt/GDP levels...


i dunno... Bullish?

eu currently around 2900, i got no broker feeds for a few hours and likely won't be trading tonight anyway, but lack of greek psi sign off STILL is likely to weigh on EUR..

seems like we're always on tenterhooks waiting for some fkn announcement on greek debt restructuring these days...
