{quote} Some call them MM (market makers), just imagine if you have tons of funds and you are able to statistically see the retail trades that are being opened and closed because you are the one taking the trades. Wouldn't it be easy for you to take advantage of that, even legally.
Forget about retail traders, they are only a tiny portion of the market

{quote} im considering buying a piece of land in say vietname or cambodia for like 2000 USD, and i get to grow wtever i want. seeing how they legalized pot in US, ill grow pot. and export it into US. hows that?
Russian gymnasts and export opurtunities
Though i dont know about Vietnam and Cambodia when it comes to the laws for that stuff? Now that i think about it the weather seems preferable to the current weather here: -8 C and heavy snow. I know China has really weird way of looking at it. In India its illegal but i think people have better things to do then try to find out what people are smoking.

I am aquinted with a viatnamese woman. Though it would hardly seem appropriate to ask. Google would provide the official story, but not the practice of it.
But from what i understand, in vietnam, if you have a few notes of say the federal reserve and you are willing to let go of some of them, then the "laws" are about as flexible as a russian gymnast. Even when it comes to murder. The general vietnamese way of looking at life seem fatalistic. Meaning that they seem to think that if you are supposed to die at a certain moment, then measures such as seatbelts, kevlar vests, speed limits, helmets, pulling your punches, dosing your heroin instead of guessing wildly and so forth seem to matter little to them. Meaning: To hell with statistics!

{quote} poor bank depositors who believe depositing their money in AUD denomiated Deposits would earn them 2.5% per annum interest... LOL which reminds me how when AUDUSD back then when it was aorund 1.05 - 1.10 regions, banks were hard selling poor old grandmas to open an AUD deposit account, saying AUD would earn you high interest.... then you saw what happened to AUDUSD....
what about multinational corporates ?

Seems like we're more likely to get sold off later, but the possibility for a run to 1.17 remains and it could happen this week IMO. Trade safely grass hoppers. Clearly would love to see 1.17 as I'm targeting 1.0, but we very well could have topped out and won't see 1.16 again for years to come.

And us tiny retail traders are part of that bottom of the food chain, we are tiny but we are aplenty. Most so called hedge funds are just tiny retail traders pooled together anyway. Lol.

{quote} Daily pivot 1.1440. If it goes down below 1.1430, then we are likely to see 1.1400. But I doubt it will break 1.1430. Upside target minimum 1.1540.

{quote} what about multinational corporates ?
As far as I know, corporates are at the bottom of the food chain of the FX market. They provide bread and butter for all others.
Big hedge funds move the market and they are at the top of the food chain. Big banks serve as market makers and sit in the middle of the food chain, and they mainly make money from commissions.

The big boys= the richest bankers in the world that pretty much rig every market there is. Most of you live in a fantasy land and you think these movements are random. I can't say I know exactly how it's rigged but I do know for a fact that it is rigged in advance by the wealthiest people in the world.

1) Or: Trading is only interesting in terms of quantifiable data. Which names to call which people are another topic: Poetry.

2) Or: Psychoanalysis = trading. Thing is, how do you translate that into: Sell, buy, close or do nothing?

3) Or: The analogy of the food chain is taken from the natural world and has to do with eating. Trading has to do with pushing buttons and staring at numbers. Do these things mix into a fruitfull analogy? Yes? No?

1.1) Regardless, i want to see a chart, not words. The words i can make up for myself and apply wildly, such as:

Ive seen people speculate for years and years about who does what and in what "food chain" order. Pretty much all of those people arent trading any more.

FYI: I do NOT include Darkstar as one of the people speculating. He seems to know, not speculate. Not that any of the stuff he is talking about seem applicable to me in practice, but thats another story.

Back to trading mood after a short break to Shanghai. Good morning All IMO, 1.1409 and 1.1204 are due. Not sure which one falls first. Based on the available news structure, 1409 may go first. I wish 1204 to go first coz I am bull biased for time being
Yesterday, PA went against my wish. Hopefully, I am on the right side. Looking forward 1414 and 1356.
