... roll around the only level in play for the week @ 1.117x ---> Bulls seriously starting to cough at these levels on top of a full house of dollar hawkish comments and reports. Tracking W roll 1.117x [check/held] and trailing remaing longs to stop me out on the minimum wind....
---> No surprise in the Euro. As expected with neutral short term range compressing and about to explode for the Q roll. All eyes 1.129x for the next few sessions as it will be the rain maker in the short term swing and also the directional flip for the mid term swing for the next Q.

---> More importantly equities losing foot again in the US session. Losing 1940.xx o the W close opened a quick test of lows but sadly I was looking at the other side so completely missed the move here. All eyes in 1868.xx in the S&P for the Q roll as failure to hold will unlock a super fast leg to 1820.xx and the extension to final destination 1790.xx (Steel support)

$1740.xx (Steel Support) | $1820.xx (very strong) [in play] | $1940.xx (momentum)[check taken] | $1985.xx [check] ...|Actual|... $2021.xx(soft) [check]| $2070.xx

Very active sessions expected. Here not much to do, I was very wrong on the short term leg in Equities so flat by default but trying to jump on board if possible with the Q roll. Flat on Oil (stopped out on the remaining trails) and not interested to trade it at these levels, Still holding Gold and remaining Euro until the Q roll and the compression range break out...

I have Euro's 1.1240/60 area packed with interchanging areas if interest, which could reverse it, but 1.1310 and 1.1350's are the ones to watch..
Gold is heavy, but it points for another comeback in to 1150's for another high.. Which seems a bit off from others... Yen sits on very important 119.70's. One of these going to go...

Yeap i see your levels. We are +/- in the same line ...I would only add the key macro levels as we're closing/opening the last Quarter of the year and they will have priority in the next few session of the minors like 1.131x/2x....

It will blow sooner or later lets see how it pans out ...

S&P also looks ready to blow. The next major resistance after186x is a long way down.

Strong bulls holding 1.1143 from 1.1118. The Euro by itself seems very well supported at these levels with the ECB holding the reins on QE. It's the dollar story to track, then, with the very hawkish comments from Yellen and the latest GDP print. I've got 1.123x and 1.1280 as resistance. I'm sure the highs are well capped now after those comments.
Slightly refreshed levels in play. They held from around 1.1143 and 1.123x flipped and taken back with 1.1280 holding the test.

Sell-off in equities early in the week but European stocks recovering decently enough and S&P next up.

A lot of bulls were buying between 1.12200-1.12400 and even more bear were selling.
Now soft bulls has been erased, while bears are in the money -> time to erase bears.

Monthly/weekly/daily are still buy for me.
H4 is sell since daily top (1.124xx), while H1 and under are also buy.
So overall still in buying mode -> the lower I can get in (and the closer to higher time frame levels), the better it should be.

Euro, Yen and Gold struggling at similar areas pointing for a possible USD strength renewal. Intraday ranges are confirmation limits. Still, Euro could renew bullishness towards HH after dipping in to 1.1180's. UJ battle between buyers at 119.70's (75/85) and sellers at 112.20's - these are the areas to target HH or LL.

Damn it... I got a nagging problem with my wifi, which employs its power-saving capabilities against my will and even ignores the kernel-module I compiled for that purpose. So, it's either a cable-reel, or Windows10 at one point. The moment I upgrade to Windows10, don't expect me to curse, rant or even coincidentally fart in front of that machine any more.

I'm not sure, I'd trust the connection even if I found a solution. Is it possible that Windows just doesn't "know"/use the power-saving features?

I'm not sure where you are going with it, but I do know this....

even your Commodore 64 (if hooked to the internet) isn't safe from NSA. However; if you use wifi, you can always just say some pervert must have hacked your wifi and accessed your IP. Make sure you have a large magnet nearby when the Feds knock late one night.

PharmOr is right. Adi Shamir (the S in RSA) giveth and Adi Shamir taketh away.

El Gamal (the other one PGP can use), if I remember correctly from my days in high tech is comparatively easy to crack.

And that's not counting that a keylogger (which Windows 10 includes) can just record your password, and then you don't have to crack anything. Or that (and this is speaking from experience) certain types of security software require licenses before they can be sold/distributed legally in certain countries. And these aforementioned countries do not grant such licenses unless you hand over to them the server encryption keys.

Hmm got the same problem here... is it the rtl8723be module? Switching off power management via a kernel option helps.

Couple of things to check as far as I know.
1-In Power options of Laptop, High Performance or Balanced there are options for wireless adapter setting and power saving mode. Set it to High performance.
2-In wireless adapter own properties remove check for Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power
3-In wifi adapter settings ıf you have properties like transmit power set it to Max if you want.

Hope those will help.
