Stop making money...you make so much on FF, HF/CB are jaleous of you
I've thought about this at length. If I can make 30% a month, consistently- why are hedge funds happy about 30% a year? Obviously the answer has to do with percentage of capital risk, vs the ability to fill orders as large as theirs agasint orders as small as ours.

Many think the hedge funds have the advantage....and sure- they do in regards to information...but twitter/ransqwak is the new Reuters/Bloomberg....and the gap will only get smaller.

I'd argue that retail has the advantage when it comes to agility. The reason people work at hedgefunds/goldman, isn't just for the money- it's for the power. All traders have the ability to make money, few are in the right place to gain power. GS is one of those places.

{quote} this can be discussed forever but i seriously doubt someone manipulated the 40k coin toss outcomes anyway, good luck
Yes, it is a chicken and egg debate Manipulation is not always malevolent or even intended, though sometimes it surely is. Some suggest simply having a result in mind has a measurable effect, especially on a mass level - see mass meditation studies on effecting outcomes. Also see, randomness problem in computation, and chaos theory. Turns out, it's really really hard to get a random result

Anyway, as far as the markets go, I always ask: what is most profitable for the market? Figuring that out is not always easy, but I've noticed the market always moves in its own favor (and to know that you have to figure out what is in the markets favor).

I think of the market as a self-interested person that is trying to confuse me, manipulate me, fake me out, lead me down blind alleys, baffle me with numbers and news, and turn me round and round in circles chasing a chimera all so that I will keep giving it my money.

The simple answer is that what is most profitable for the market is for it to take my money. I've found it has helped me a lot to keep that in mind when I make a trade.

Hi all, it will be the belly ... but I believe that this week we will see the dax @10785, therefore I imagine a much higher EURUSD
Hi, it sure is dropping. I aint buying anything below 11137. Actually now testing again, but too late to enter. So better wait tomorrow. But perhaps the best would be scenario to short @ 11400 for hikes sellof. Prolly too late, but summer is long.

i like your observations. they say chaos (randomness, unpredictability, uncertainty) is the opposite of the order. but i think chaos is actually the absolute, perfect order which generates the pseudo orders. this is becoming a philosophy talk so i stop here.
meanwhile closed the shorts and opened a few longs and entering into scalping mode.

{quote} More like 300:1, the moves posted are smaller moves in a much larger move that may kick off tomorrow. I lied, added one 1053, 1/4 the size of the others. Same as the retest I talked about yesterday. Just normal pa....easy and common scalp....even while others were commenting the 50% touch in favor of bulls......you'll see it if you put your cursor to the hourly at that spot. Most times a resistance is broken, it'll come back to retest the break....often it's better to trade the retest than the original break. The same is true when tops are...

Yes, need to stick to the matter at hand, the eurousd It would be cool if more would maybe try and anticipate the moves it will make in a general way (within a timeframe) with a few good reasons besides lagging stats or obvious news items.

I'll give it a go, for the time being I expect it to range up and down within the range that it dropped and went up this morning. This leaves everyone wondering what direction it is going to go next once it inevitably breaks out of this pattern. As a result, the market makes more money.

Eventually it will move in the direction that will make it the most money. I'm simplifying, but up if there are more short dollars, and down if there are more longs. (Or both in a whipsaw if they are equal). But first it has to generate volume by doing what it is doing now. It is not just stop hunting, it is teasing new traders so they will put in more money that it can then move to take away.

It will likely form a triangle pointing roughly to the right before it moves out of the pattern it is in now. One reason is less and less buyers and sellers in the market, or more and more equally. The pressure or lack of it forces things to a point. Eventually, the next market takes over and moves it to its own benefit until the next one takes over. Each market works for or against the others depending on its own collective self interest.

Nope. There're other things than FED that affect CAD.

My risk is -5 pips so I will risk it.

Gold is more of fear of inflation hedge and the fear diminished with rate hike is looming.

As for Crude, it will settle and find equilibrium - this I can not predict the sequence but the lows may get tested

I agree. Considering the current global environment, it should be somewhat of a non event.
