Good stuff...much the same here.

Only looking for half my regular monthly target this month. Got a very forgiving bounce off the lows this week, because I had a few stinkers on the go. Hoping to wrap sometime this week. A decent move in Gold could ice it today.

In exchange for a free gift today, I'll gladly give some back to the market overlords in the New Year.

Dax breaching to 4 year highs and now within swing reach to all time highs with a break. ES more importantly crumbs away from final target 1440.xx. A further break above this afternoon with FA support will open all time Highs!!!. Gold like usual with macro fundamentals in play a bit more cautious given FED and still on launching platform. Dollar already left the station preemptively.

Euro trading air intraday at these levels that will suck a lot of weak hands in and out until the move pans out. Open and clear QE4 will open 147x non stop on air in the ES, Gold 1800 and Euro 1.334x. Lost faith in oil and decided to skip any trade as other oil fundamentals are weighting heavier in the instrument. FED disappointing will only put as back on the bottom of the range (so fade the top of the ranges if possible TAwise) until Fiscal cliff mumbojumbo close this year.

GL all, nothing much to see in the rest of the European sessions. Same trades, same levels, same everything (except oil that is cancelled). Very thin intraday sessions expected until late US afternoon so as usual in these circumstances expecting very sensitive markets, treading water on unsustainable levels for the news....

Back in July, off the coast of Newfie Land, on a beautiful, lazy summer day, my friend and I were drifting along, absorbed in the laziness of it all. Suddenly, without warning, an overbearing sense of dread overcame me. The classic “hairs on the back of my neck tingling” kind of dread. I proceeded to douse the sails and put up the storm trysail. All the while, my friend could only stare at me in amazement.

Finally, she could’t take it anymore and blurted “what in bloody hell are you up to?” My reply was simple – “ I’m getting ready.” “Ready for what?” “I don’t know, I honest to God don’t know. But whatever it is, I want to be ready.” And wouldn’t you know it – out of nowhere, no warning, no prelude – WHAM – we got hit by a squall the likes of which I had never seen before, certainly not in this part of the world. Somehow, we muddled through and soon, all was right with our world again.

This has absolutely nothing to do with anything, but (on a bit of a smaller scale), I’m getting that uneasy feeling again. I’ve just spent the better part of the last six hours scanning numerous articles, analyses, predictions, etc., related to the upcoming Fed decision. It seems everyone and their mother is 100% completely convinced that we will get the hoped for “QE4” today (whatever form it might take).

And all I’m left with is the age old adage that the market, given the chance, will find a way to screw the majority opinion. If what is hoped for doesn’t happen, there is going to be a shitstorm of a world of hurt on a whole bunch of folks.

Soon we shall see. Careful out there today.

PS – Probably, absolutely nothing out of the ordinary will happen, and things will continue on their merry way. But damn, it would be so cool to bear witness to a fine, fine shitstorm…
