Got 5 cross-country flights in the next 4 weeks. Anyone got any suggestions of books to read (non trade/business related)?
Was thinking maybe:
-Any Hunter S Thompson book
-Game of Thrones
-50 Shades of Gray (Obviously kidding)

But I am stumped, any suggestions ?
Gracias Amigos
You said you no trading/business book, but I have recently read "Principles" by Ray Dalio (Bridgewater), which was good. I have the Pdf if you wanna read it on your iPad. I like classic novels like "the razor's edge" or"the moon and sixpence", but those are not everyone's taste.

Those are some intense books
I'm downloading the razor's edge to read on my flight tomorrow.
I'm thinking about The Great Gatsby for the flight back. Haven't read that since I was a kid.
Funny things about Dalio's Principles, I had an interview with BWater a while back and they said the best way to prepare for the interview was to read his principles. BWater is a very interesting place/culture.

brilliant post Cube!.........i read this about her from the Camden New Journal........"people living deeply have no fear of death"......

http://www.thecnj.com/review/2008/05...052208_03.html

It was a real measure of her sensitivity and big-heartedness that, even at the peak of her fame she would concentrate her writing on the lives of ordinary, everyday people.

More recently, we connected again on a very deep level, after her diagnosis with cancer, which had afflicted me years earlier.
There was no flinching from the experience; as always, Nuala was stoic, and shatteringly honest.

Anaïs Nin wrote that “people living deeply have no fear of death”.

Nuala’s last email to me said: “I’m back in the silence of Clare with the dog. Gatwick a slum. We will – not we might or maybe – we will meet again.”

It was not to be, but she did give an amazing interview on RTé about her impending death, and it is very special.

Nice.. that's so true I also say a lot of people are afraid of life so prefer to die a little every day. Best wishes.

TradeYourEdge posted an interesting Weekly EUR/USD Channel earlier, I've just noticed the identical pattern on the 4 hrly... (hope I'm not repeating anyone). Both charts posted below. Time to find me some short signals I think... I'll try and ignore the DeutscheBank positioning showing a big increase in interbank shorts overt he last two weeks...

Further to above, one can Buy a EUR 1.2780 Put for one week with double knock outs 1.2840 and 1.2600 for 10 pips. Potential 10 to 15 times risk reward providing you aren't knocked... 10 pips obviously being less than halve the points of just sell sopt with a 1.2840 Stop Loss....

Hi All,
EJ looks like its due for a drop back to high 1.03 levels. Just taken a short with a relatively small SL to what I normally take. Japan's elections will have a lot to do with any Yen pairs, something to be careful of trading yen.

I'm thinking (1) take profit for 20pips or (2) SL=BE as soon as 20pips gain, then let it down. Probably I go with (2), seeing this fib worked twice at 50%.

Am I doing wrong???

EJ the last one turned out as planned. Missed my by 6 pips, manually exited.
Its now on top of the channel, taken a couple of short on the return from overshoot. This is a long term trade. Will probably be a bumpy ride, but worth it.

Very interesting. What are your SL and TP, if I may? I would never think of taking short at this point.... (I've been waiting for the PA to Fib76 & 107.00, but I'm not sure now seeing UJ just turned around at Fib 76=82.50)
Sorry, but I'm just so curious the way you trade
