latest from fxl-

 

  1. Aims to complete second bailout negotiation with EU/IMF by middle of next week at latest
  2. Greece will not default
  3. 2011 deficit expected to end up at 9.5% of GDP
  4. Greeks realize more fiscal measures are necessary


latest from me-

nothing out of the davos champagne piss up so far tonight...

missing is doing all that they are supposed to do. creates more unemployment, and that =s less taxes..
= more deficit. in a mostly tourism economy. raising the prices tourist pay = less tourist. a rise in the euro just ensures less tourist. = euro failure.

there's nearly always a better entry g, and there'll be plenty of pull backs and shakeouts along the way, even if we're headed to 1.60...

closed those too early.. 4207 too..
closed my long on this one too early..

My favorite was I spent like 2 months waiting for the EU to hit 4911... I shorted it heavy... And stopped myself out for a loss at 4935... Lol!

Then just stood there and watched it fall and never reentered

forex can be a bitch...

my worst one was a boj intervention, i'd literally put the ranch on it, waited hours that night, then eventually closed and went to bed because there was way too much downside risk, woke up and boj had moved it about 600 pips, and i'd have had virtually no draw down, was as sick as a parrot, took me two weeks to get over it...

yeah .. i figured the bounce would be bigger. i got caught up in the fundies. . half the leg is the 3587 3600... that's what i usually look for. just like this one we are at atm.. 2910 62 77 are in the scope. and doing this then making a hh .. would make a run to 3773. as a likely target. the mid is 3485... these are rough atm.. the mirror image is 2334 mid with 2047 as the target. these are a month old, and still rough
