No I don't think so ....They all end up doing +/- the same in the 2nd time. They make more noise for election and the opposition (Republican this time but it is the same and works both ways when Republicans are in Office) feed the media with extreme positions...

At the end they deliver the +/- the same from wars to internal reforms but with a different "topping". Either you get the meal with a extra tax cut for the certain very small high income target or you get the meal with an extra subsidy via medicare or benefits, etc for a very small lowest...
the so called patriots wrapped in a flag. want to give away Americas greatest asset. the ability to make things, the economy from making things. take away GM and Chrysler. Ford came flat out and told us w/o GM and Chrysler, Ford would fail. not to mention thousands in the support cast of manufacturers in north America. With 10 million more out of work. where would the dominoes fall? the cancer would have affected all industries eventually. excluding the hated lawyers with a wind fall in bankruptcy cases. even the toilet paper industry would have suffered (less wipes ).
so we lose Ford, Chrysler GM ect. We lose a entire skilled workforce to build the war machine.. This is the one question. i would like to ask the hawks. Who will build the tanks ect. the next big war.. Will we buy them from China? Will we use a S Korean or Japanese manufacture located in the U.S.? and allow them to see sensitive design? and after send them a check. I would like to ask this question and get an answer. not a talking point unrelated.

bit unfair this choice @ 3100
3200 would look safer, so I choose 2444
But prefer to wait for next week to place my final bet....
i dont see it either.. i see 3209 and 3227... but i didn't see 9334 min on the chf July 26 either (600+ pips). so i will respect any reversal signal from now on..

Any truly patriotic American...which (thankfully ) there is no shortage of...same as it ever was. Who built the war machine in the latter half of WWII when all the "skilled" men were spilling their blood (to prevent an absolutely demented gobshite from turning this fragile place into the biggest laughing stock of the universe.) No shortage. If it wasn't women...it would be children.

If it clears the (blue) H1 200ema...could get positively-swappy!

H4 Stochs pointing down, too...trying to make something of it.

Would love another bounce to get some more in.

the mid at 0.81128 just got pierced towards 0.81844. wave-wise, it makes sense and looks was better (read: clearer) than anything else atm.

plan for next week: wait for pb to ~0.804 to L towards 0.818x.

And a double one mate with the ECB. The 2 biggest CB in the world in coordinated action.. markets are going wild ...

Euro finally entering in Resistance in one go for the close 1.315x testing (can only said wow), usually takes 2 or 3 mini daily legs to cover a breakout like this from 1,268x...

Clearing last one in the ES just a few ticks below final target in the best trade of the year by far for me equity/time/speed/size/risk/reward ratio ...

Levels only for today FED:

Clearing [almost] all on targets (only holding final ES for the just in case with NY but with unhealthy stops).

Coordinated action concluded with a clean sweep and QE3.

ES the same risky but tradable with QE3 knee jerk reaction a further break 1434x [highlight] to 1483x[/highlight] but if confirmed with W/M rolls will open all time highs (1600s!!!) .....[80% completed / check ]

Will prove the downfall...looking back in 100 years, or so.

Some may argue it was the creation of the FED itself...even further than the "Gold incident" ()...tough to argue...and I guess the two eventually became linked. Some fat fak(s)...let's get rich today...fak tomorrow...it isn't ours anyway!!! oink oink oink

Thoughts on calculating this bar as a s/d area? Normally the s/d are in plain sight... bear then bull candle, bull then bear candle. Those are the easy ones to pragmatically calculate.

This one, however, I would have missed the buy on retest of the break, because its bear candle and thus doesn't create the bull/bear or bear/bull combo that gives away the sd zones.

Thoughts?

Edit: And on the flipside, I would have been stopped out on trying to sell it. So yeah... lol.

Edit Edit: More information, I view s/d zones in two ways. One way is the swing highs and swing lows. These are the major zones where you will find me buying and selling counter or with trend. The other is more so these bear/bull bull/bear combo bars, where I can get all kinds of intimate with the current order flow. I am trying to work on an order flow indicator based on this swag to quickly give visual assist. This type of candle is the last piece of my puzzle.
