really nice

with all the mistakes I am making this morning i am lucky to get any ... to embarrassed to post all of them so just take my word for it and hopefully once i get back on schedule here my brain will function a bit better. right now my crown is so crooked it's falling off

just stick to the levels , they are all playing out

EU is above the intraday swing @ 3308 now and below ADR , still some opportunities to grab a few

nice

giving EU a miss for now

EY ranges are simply too good to ignore

do less for more
understand for sure. EJ was the main reason i wanted to get back trading the London open. got tired of waking up and seeing that 200+ pip move. that and NY sessions is being a dog lately

once the dust settles after latest BOJ schemes and plots , i expect the Yen to settle back into a small (smaller) trading range

it will put the brakes on EY ranges as well

untill that happens , i plan to cash in

Equities forming a mid term top. ES and DAX can set the high of the month (and prolly the high of Q1) as early as today/this week close (sidelined). Oil breached strong 96.1x but is set for a swing 91.xx and 87.6x, Gold holding steady 169x. Actively looking for a way in those. Euro stuck in wide chop zone 1.328x held 2nd test intraday yesterday opening the final leg of the swing to 1.344x and 1360x. To the other side intraday 1.322x marginally open as long as 1.336x (top of the wide range) is holding...

i see 318 pip drop on the gy.. atm at 140.20 ish.. and maybe much further. its in the bounce atm, so a weakness signal should be looked for. as down day with a -3973 close may do it also, we have been there once already today... the eu at weakness to 3361 was another i was looking for.

getting into mid morning retrace territory, if it follows it's usual m.o.

hour and a half till i need to start getting ready, but also have a 10 minute hike to get to the car and then need to defrost it, can't park down my road if there's snow as i have hills either end of my road that haven't seen a gritter or snow plough in years...

c if the next h is above or below 3313... if above 3319 we should take a shot at 3360.. no opinion, if i was going south. i would have expected 3319.. next close below 19 is one thing.. but below 13 is added weight..
got a s/o long,,, with so tight s/l... missed the long ride..
