Only 1/2 day today and tomorrow for currencies with London closed. Indices at key levels and in full control for the next waves across the board.

S&P (ES) at the most important levels in play this year. 1278.xx very tradable for the rejection of lows to 1297/1299.xx for NY and early this week until US ISM. Hold or rejection of 1299.xx will be very telling TA-wise not only for stocks but also for dollar, gold and oil.

Bulls losing floor in US markets will definitively carry lots of momentum there and will put all markets in a new bear/risk...
Just got this in my email.

Ever thought what would happen to Euro if the EZ muppets issued Euro bonds backed by gold.

Looks like they are already thinking about it.

health-wise, I'm on the brink of feeling really good again, give it another 2 weeks.
trading-wise, I have changed a lot, adjusting here and there... I have 16 months left to decide if this is going to become my future, or not. so far, I think so.
how long have you been trading?

no problem with that, but that sequence sucks, as I don't understand it.

8:15 AM Portugal's €78B ($97B) rescue program is on course and the country's target of cutting its deficit to 4.5% of GDP in 2012 remains within reach, Troika inspectors say after their latest review. Portugal is now due to receive the next €4B tranche of the rescue. (Earlier: bank injection)



6:00 AM More on Portugal/banks: The government is injecting €1.65B into state-controlled Caixa Geral de Depositos, up to €3.5B into Banco Comercial Portugues SA, and €1.5B into Banco BPI (BBSPY.PK). The state will receive convertible bonds from BCP and BPI in return. The money is coming from a bank bailout fund created as part of Portugal's €78B rescue.




5:42 AM Germany indicates that it could drop its opposition to eurozone bonds, a banking union and other ideas if EU governments agree to give up more sovereignty to Europe, the WSJ reports. Germany is "willing to play ball" in a grand design, an official says; however, Angela Merkel is still publicly objecting to eurobonds.

does anyone coincidentally use LibreOffice? when I have a layouted table (all flashy, with colours, borders, etc.) and I want to copy a formula from one cell to a bunch of others, why does it copy the layout as well? any way to prevent that?

took a nap.. s/o on all but an older s. at 2410 +2 % for the day/month
it looks like a possible run to 2571.. its non symmetrical and counter. i wouldn't long it.. i also am not going to shorty atm. (other then a scalp for either)
since we are not going to close below 2309. a bounce has more validity. if you play adam and eve bottoms. we have one. that points to 2571. (more don't mean its good odds)

.against longs you got a lower trend with a brand new low with large upper wicks to fight,. we still don't have a close above...
we are here. i dont know how much gas is left in the tank. we still didn't really test 2622 area

Thanks for the link.

Not really sure about the technical arguments. With just the abstract from an interview it sounds closer to a random forecast more than a valid scenario.

European gold bonds sounds nice in theory but technically I don't see how it can work. Going back to a gold standard in the euro bonds but not in monetary policy via the ECB is wrong and technically impossible. Despite that, who is going to put/guarantee the gold in reserves for the bonds??? ...we end up back to the same problem Germany, France, etc guarantee everyone else so what's the point for Germany on introducing gold bonds?.

I need more info to make my own opinion on that front... I'll post the links if I find something else ...

if i was a owner of gold. i would love the rumors. if i was a bank with gold, i would put out rumors. India has put the breaks on its people buying gold. it was interfering with its growth. what happens when china does it. since its growth has slacked.
