its crazy i dont know what kind of size u could lay down over they weekend but i guess they would have to fill you... who knows what the liquidity would be though

it gets tricky here.... the usdx is also hitting tl support atm.. i expect the gbp tp get to 6053 min.. if that tl in the usdx holds. for the gbp to hit the target. others pairs have to weaken verses usd. this may stall the euro from going higher.. it may also take a long time to equalize. only if the tl holds.. .

if it gets back there i am thinking the same thing......same for the Dow. anything close to 13,200/300

the ZEW may carry prices higher into NY and how much repatriation of the Euro before that is done......difficult question.

i shorted the Dow yesterday at 2:45 at 12,960 and the selling occurred in the last 15 minutes into the close so i may wait for another shot higher.....

you may be right....you also posted earlier about how the flows change at certain mkt hrs, Asia into London and NY?..........i sold the S&P and AUD/USD and AUD/JPY last week off that shitty China number and waited it out through the London session into friday morning.

the f....king thing hardly moved through the night which i thought was kind of weird but bernanke was scheduled to speak at 1 PM so figured the fix was maybe in for a QE hint....had to be out most of that day so closed out since i don't usually like to hold open positions over weekends (especially these days with all the gaps occuring) ........came back at 3:30 and it sold off later in NY

c'est la vie, right
