Sure Fudomyo, sry I forgot. I really dont remember everything. But now when you reminded me, yes, I remember you were posting charts. After break of that 50% 2000-2008 leg, I really didnt think we would retrace that soon. Then Draghi jumped out of bushes, well, you know the story. I admitted we will see ,266 when we crossed ,2406 on weekly move.

If someone hasn't conquered their emotional and intellectual weaknesses, they won't be successful at anything, including trading. Everyone is coming into this with different skill sets and experience so one size doesn't fit all in terms of necessary personal development.

The concept of trading psychology is played up to the point it can become a hinderance for some people. It really comes down to mastery of self and all the other pieces fall into place. But if you had to define the critical psychological element of trading, it's the ability to...

12:49 PM Now taking questions (live here) after a speech in Berlin, George Soros says - absent policy actions taken to generate growth - the depression much of the EU is suffering through will reach Germany in 6 months. Germany must back growth or leave Europe, he says. Soros this weekend.

9:54 AM A masterstroke by Mario Draghi, the ECB's OMT nevertheless is a wish, not a done deal, writes Ambrose Evans-Pritchard. Nothing happens unless Spain and Italy submit to what are surely to be Carthaginian bailout terms. Nothing happens until the Bundestag approves the rescue funds. Nothing happens unless the German Constitutional Court rules the ESM is legal. Soros: It's a done deal.
