Got it, will read it over the weekend.
I saw that youtube-series about the Million-Dollar-trader, which appears to follow the same concept. That was as interesting as it was disenchanting.

Silence tell you all ...we are so so so close that is better not claim victory until the deal is finish ...whatever the case, light volume and prolly "early" close cause the storm in NY which can make the afternoon US session very tricky and for the 1st time in 6 years we have ALL TIME HIGHS within realistic short term range....

Check Gold too...

Donchian Channels, volatility breaks, etc, no not at all. I was more interesting in the discipline and rules implication for the conversation with Hatch. Nothing to do with what I do.

EU budget approved and Gold I don't really understand how it can keep holding the break down much longer ... it is literally hanging on air ... ES is just floating to final target so even Dr. Doom is on board now (that is massive surprise ...lol ...only 125% move up later he finally admitted) so let see if we can push in a manic light volume move with Europe closing.

those chaps were real cowboys in their hay day, Dennis ran a couple of thousand up to a few hundred million, then gave back most of it...they where breakout traders, always pyramiding, worked well in the 70's and 80's during the great bull markets in commodities...

s/o eu 3414 trade at be on the spike to 28
opened another 3395,, still in atm. may close if we dont move soon
ej was up 200 and now just 160 ish.. entry 125.39 its keeps going up and down.. i may tp it..

kiwi has a 75.50 target, and suggest the current high is a high until. so weakness on bounces near 78.0 or 78.42 ish may be the way to go, up to a hh.. with the 75.5 min target.. atm 77.35
gbp is red for me atm..

can someone research the trade #s between the u.s. and china not matching. it would be more independent then just me.
its probably why the aud has pointed to sub 1.0
the kiwi is more food related commodities the aud more mineral.
