So I wish you all a great Memorial Day Weekend. Not sure if I will have any charts yet, but as you may have noticed, I also enjoy some music, jokes, literature, and poetry when market is closed or slow. Hope some appreciate it.

A Ballad of Heroes
Austin Dobson
Because you passed, and now are not,
Because, in some remoter day,
Your sacred dust from doubtful spot
Was blown of ancient airs away,
Because you perished,must men say
Your deeds were naught, and so profane
Your lives with that cold burden ? Nay,
The deeds you wrought are not in vain!

Though, it may be, above the plot
That hid your once imperial clay,
No greener than o'er men forgot
The unregarding grasses sway;
Though there no sweeter is the lay
Of careless birds,though you remain
Without distinction of decay,
The deeds you wrought are not in vain!

No. For while yet in tower or cot
Your story stirs the pulses' play;
And men forget the sordid lot
The sordid care, of cities gray;
While yet, beset in homelier fray,
They learn from you the lesson plain
That Life may go, so Honor stay,
The deeds you wrought are not in vain.
ENVOY
Heroes of old! I humbly lay
The laurel on your graves again;
Whatever men have done, men may,
The deeds you wrought are not in vain!
The world you desire can be won. It exists.. it is real.. it is possible..

{quote} Nice to see you guys hanging out here. No charts, but if anyone is interested, I suggest you play around with EU. I have posted many around but it is a harmonic paradise at the moment, so I suggest checking it out. PS, I strongly recommend you do it by hand. It is a much better learning process and allows you to see the patterns.
Yes I agree Scott, but being a beginner in this approch, I need the help of this semi automatic indicator but still drawing by hand, because I still have trouble viewing the fibo levels and legs, this way of trading is good, thank you for your help

Written by Charles Henrywood

Grant peace, O Lord, across our strife-torn world,
Where war divides and greed and dogma drive.
Help us to learn the lessons from the past,
That all are human and all pay the price.
All life is dear and should be treated so;
Joined, not divided, is the way to go.

Protect, dear Lord, all who, on our behalf,
Now take the steps that place them in harm's way.
May they find courage for each task they face
By knowing they are in our thoughts always.
Then, duty done and missions at an end,
Return them safe to family and friends.

Grant rest, O Lord, to those no longer with us;
Who died protecting us and this their land.
Bring healing, Lord, to those who, through their service,
Bear conflict’s scars on body or in mind.
With those who mourn support and comfort share.
Give strength to those who for hurt loved-ones care.

And some there be who no memorial have;
Who perished are as though they’d never been.
For our tomorrows their today they gave,
And simply asked that in our hearts they'd live.
We heed their call and pledge ourselves again,
At dusk and dawn - we will remember them!

Thank you Chris. I can not stress how important it is that people know and remember history. For life and trading. What is trading? Well, lots of things but we are trading a probable future based on what happened in the past. Or for us, to honor and respect those who have given us so much.

Further, I would rather read a good poem or anything intellectual rather than some spamming, nonsense, or peter measuring contest any day. There is a big mental and psychological component to trading so having the proper mindset and constantly expanding our mental horizons is important.

Well you are welcome. And thank you.

Let me say this, the people you mention I have gotten to know a little bit and they are good people and knowledgeable. There are some real and excellent traders here at ff. They have something to offer as well as some of my other friends around here.

However, for the most part, I see a lot of garbage here at ff. I really do not care for the most part, but most threads are counterproductive. There is so much garbage that anything of value is drowned out. Further, there is a lot of spamming, nonsense, and negative/amateurish attitudes. As you say, trading might be simple but it is also hard, so we have to keep a clear mind.

It is my hope we can share ideas, charts, and methods and learn. Keep it clean and don't mind questions, jokes, or anything interesting when market is slow or closed. This can be a lonely business. Not sure how it will work or how long it will last, but I would post charts around here at ff and get crickets....

So, I figured I would just try to post them all in the same place. And invite my friends to share whatever they feel like sharing. Don't be afraid to post a chart because you do not consider it harmonic. Harmonics is a lot of things besides patterns.....or animals....

For example, the two humper Nesse harmonic , sometimes she has a tail, and it is smaller

BEHOLD!

Edit: it is an actual pattern I look for. Often a continuation pattern. Judging by the prices I think this one failed

Hi Guys
I love fundamentals and like to have some kind of reading on it.

Lets see we can break this down

1.We know Feds won't raise IR in June this is stated by them.
2.Feds projected ideal growth for IR hike is 2%!! We are not even close prompting many to believe that we may not even see IR hike in 2015
3.Absence of real green numbers and somewhat soft numbers I anticipate deep corrections coming on USD next few months.

Worth reading

"The near-term breakout in USD/JPY raises the risk for a run at the 2015 high (122.01), but the fundamental developments coming out of the world’s largest economy may undermine the bullish outlook surrounding the exchange rate should we see a growing number of Fed officials show a greater willingness to further delay the normalization cycle.

Speculation surrounding the Fed policy outlook may play an increased role in driving dollar-yen volatility as the Bank of Japan (BoJ) preserves a wait-and-see approach, and another series of dismal U.S. data prints may drag on interest expectations as the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) Minutes show a greater willingness to retain the zero-interest rate policy (ZIRP) beyond mid-2015. The preliminary 1Q U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) report will be in focus going into the last full-week of May, and the updated print may dampen the appeal of the greenback as market participants anticipate a 0.9% contraction in the growth rate versus an initial forecast for a 0.2% expansion.

A marked downward revision in 1Q GDP may encourage the Fed to retain the ZIRP for an extended period of time, and we may see a growing number of central bank officials adopt a more dovish tone should the weakness from the beginning of the year carry into coming quarters. With FOMC voting-members Stanley Fischer, Jeffrey Lacker and John Williams scheduled to speak next week, the fresh batch of rhetoric may ultimately spur a near-term pullback in USD/JPY should the policymakers talk down bets for a September rate hike.

Nevertheless, the technical outlook highlights the risk for a test of the 2015 high as USD/JPY breaks out of the near-term range, and a more bullish formation may take shape in the days ahead should the U.S. developments highlight an improved outlook for the U.S. economy and beat market expectations. "

Hi Davit,

Might be worth taking a look if you haven't already at what Draghi and Kuroda said today.

Dragi Article 1
Article 2

Kuroda Article 1

I prefer the U/J shorts at top of range.

Hi Squawk
What do you consider top range 122?

Here is a better article

BOJ slightly more upbeat on economy; Kuroda sees no need for more monetary easing

I'm thinking pretty much anywhere here. Committed sellers area so just waiting for a trigger. Don't think I will be taking anything Monday unless we get another spike up with the low volume or it looks to fill the last spike. Love to see one more exhaustion spike on low volume that gets filled.

Thanks for the link Davit.

Hi Thodie
Progressive selling from here to 24 (which I don't think will reach near term) is good idea targeting 119-118
next few months.
MM love crushing Bears only to turn around to crush the Bulls.Without IR hike USD is on thin Ice, June projection is out the window
Yellen already spilled here nonsense so I am looking corrections cross the board.

Hi guys,

Thanks for some good discussion. I don't mind the fundis, trained in them. Good to discuss.

No charts, but there is massive ab = cd on monthly with fib confluence from memory. H4 crab, GJ monthly . Could be nice short. Then again, I have been at the pool drinking beer and don't have access to any charts so caveat emptor.

Keeping powder dry.

Thanks PharmOr. This is actually legitimate, harmonic pattern that I consider to be on exotic side. Might delve into at some time.

Ok need pictures for this one. The larger ab cd on usdjpy is on thread, PharmOr found it. I don't particularly like this platform as I can not get as precise as I prefer but I believe gets the point across.

Not bad from memory, apparently the buffalo theory is correct.
