{quote} flys into a new country, then flys across that country, then flys into another new country....all in the same two weeks and you say life should be somewhat "normal" good lord!
I know...sounds ridiculous...BUT!!!

For the last week, or so...I've been checked into a king-size equipped hotel room...and slept in it for about 45 minutes. Flight cases, my feet...and the odd random couch were the more likely suspects to catch my Z's.

Me Ma lives in Vancouver. She's literally meeting me at work tomorrow with a "packed lunch"! That's the closest to normalcy that I've had in a long, long time! Very sweet...can't wait! I have my hotel room here now...will be able to avail of it each night...AND...even go stay at my Mom's/friends...for a few. All is well!

Dear sisse..Thx for your info and analysis. Please I want to ask you..do you expect more up in eurusd? Or the down move will start here? Thank you
Just want to echo my friend, Hoom's post...

Don't be silly, mate (mohwazzan). No offense meant, but...WTF? Surely you're smarter than what you just displayed?

Not to be a prick...but if your second post doesn't show more brain power than your first...it will be your last (in this thread).

....This is not a process that start on an exact time and date!!! Its just a very important information you need to have in the FA background for whatever you are planning to invest/trade. It will start in the next few weeks and any sane trader has to be aware of it ... Fighting hikes is choosing the pattern of MORE resistance and as you know we look for EXACTLY the opposite when trading. sisse
good advice, mate. UST's and US financial equities said a mouthful post FOMC today (ie, bonds fell, financials rose) and it's all about the ffr hike on the horizon, whether it's a Sept horizon or June or 2016 or whatever. (Note the FOMC removed any calendar reference at all, so all future FOMC's will be showtime, live ammo if the data has lined up.) So now risk bears just need some help via some good US econ data prints in Q2 and beyond. Global macro threats (Greece, China, whatever)
complicate the ffr hike calculus but those do nothing for the risk bull case, so....my takeaway is the bull path is getting steeper.

omg it's about time...

I haven't really been here, so I'm not sure how everything is flowing.

I like that brand new people to forex, or forex factory, can interact in the thread; just because people with knowledge haven't been here before, doesn't mean they may not be welcome at OUR table in this dusty saloon. Likewise...innocent questions asked by people new to any game can often make one dust off dark corners of the brain...cast a new light...on how they used to view things.

Point is: is everything OK with the thread (posting rights)? There's a LOT of brain-muscle in here; not many donkeys post. If it starts to slip...say the word...and the flag thing will increase. Although...I'm still not convinced on how that will improve things.

Anyway...random thought...random replies.

Compared to Dublin...this place is Heaven!

In Dublin...they'll brick ya...take yer wallet/cash/general good stuff...and leave you to wake up on your own.

Vancouver: I am a junkie. I am requesting your belongings...you should comply, or I MAY harm you!

Me: I'm from Dublin, Vancouver junkie. Take one more step in my direction...and I'll bleadin brick ya!

(landed in SEA(tac) yesterday. Day with friends. Rolled on the train to Van today. Other than the extreme mountain (range) peaks of Vancouver (not singular like Baker)...beautiful...sister/brother-type cities. I'm convinced...heaven on Earth.

I'm not going anywhere (after July 1st-ish) for a long time...I'm home! So I would LOVE that, mate.

We'll see what it all brings, but I may give a gentle reminder along the way. You...good man! I know we'd have a fine laugh. Until then...see you here(ish).

Cheers Foo!

I also forgot to mention, there's a very talented trader (my mentor 5 years ago) you might be interested in meeting and exchanging ideas with that lives downtown. Let me know if you want his name and I can PM you it.

btw... is it suspicious if someone energetically apologizes before he's being insulted?
Hmmmmmm....tough wording there, Hatches...

If I've ever "energetically apologized" in my life...I've done something SERIOUSLY wrong/offensive. <---years ago. In fact...so far ago...that I think I was SO young that I didn't give a shite about what I was apologizing for...therefore...it wasn't a very "energetic" apology...as in...half-arsed apology.

BUT...apologizes before being insulted?

Insulted? Hmmmmmm...maybe a tough word? Anytime I've ever been insulted...there was no fore warning. Just had to deal with it when it arrived.

If somebody is anticipating backlash from some sort of dodge they've cast...I would say...YES...it could be considered suspicious. Dubious may be another word to ponder.

I meant "accused", not insulted.
