Ken,

I'm a day late on congratulating you for a year on this thread. Yeah, I haven't been pulling my weight for a few months, but one monkey don't stop no show.

Anyway, I'm going to be back a little more. World looks pretty much like it was in the spring, except corn flakes cost a little more for them to make, and the EUR has a 2 right after the decimal point. Other than that, pretty much the same old crap.

Anyway, happy birthday, RUT.

OQ.

if the ea is going to drop. then the eu should be weaker then the au. so if i was going to s the eu or au. and the ea looked bearish.. i would short the eu.. and if i was to long.. vice verse.
yes this has helped me pick up a lot of extra pips, knowing which one to short or long. for a usd play its either au or eu depending on ea.

for the last two weeks eu has been the best way to play usd short, and au the best way to play usd long, but before then, it was opposite for a very long time (since EA 1.30)
Be hopeful in a winning position, and fearful in a losing position.

and now you are shorting ea
means au long
nope.. the au and the eu can go either way.. as can the ea.. but if the ea drops. the au will be stronger then the eu.. meaning if it goes up, its stronger or if it went down it would go down less.

An opinion I share...and I think is REALLY well put. Problem is...

I stink at Admin..."firing" people! I also enjoy the "edges of acceptability" but am pretty good courting said edges. Most here are of a similar disposition...and that's what made this place a lot of fun.

(relatively) Lately...arsehole incarnates have (somewhat) taken over. There has been enough displeasure voiced about quite a few (repeatedly-mentioned) cooks. Summer has been fun...a broth most of us are more than willing to collectively put down the drain. The core...
Wait... What's going on?

H4: Two levels we "may" be heading toward fairly quick: 1940 equals the 23.6 Fib of the recent wild run down (more clear on next chart), and D1 50ema (Red MA coming in at the top)

Calling the underlined in quote above "hit" in my book (near enough).

Time for some new channels?

We'll retrace soon, and I'll clean some out. At least that's what I keep praying myself...I mean...telling myself!

Yeah, I missed something too...

I guess there's been some drama around these parts in the last few days while I've been enjoying myself during the summer doldrums.

Not enough action in the FX markets making the kids a lil restless?

Yes praying is more like it

Double top here we can only hope

Not looking good if Aussie wants 104.10 and E/U doesn't go down faster :/
