Why are you talking to yourself?
Man...this stung me. :/
How should I react to my previous statement/observation?
If I would just post a new reply, than how would anyone know what I'm talking about and why?

I thougth you are here to make money and therefore you like to read posts, that are actually about giving trade hints BEFORE a move starts. Captain hindsights are in every forum. Another story if you are here to feel pro/smart...and an other story if you don't like me posting here - no problem pal - there are plenty of other forums (and I'm not offensive...rather recessive - I'm going to find an other).

Peace.

{quote}it's a BOJ/FOMC double ended dingdong. Can get ya coming or going. But if the BOJ holds off and then the Fed surprises, we could see equities crap pants big time.....versa vicea the other way.
Hit nail on head.
and mindful of the volitility that uncoordinated moves of this "scissors/paper/stone" dual event may create,
do you think it likely that the Fed and BoJ each already know the others intentions? I mean to a more direct extent than we are already aware of.

What a wonderful conspiracy theory..Lol

Considering your last 7 posts (I only went back 4 pages) all but two of your posts in the thread since March have only been you quoting yourself- it seems to me you're the only one that will miss you if you leave.

I see it now- you came from EU thread, no surprise there.

No, no...I'm super calm...

I leaved Eursusd forum (just when Sisse did) because of those smartass commenters back there...and Pharmour's post just reminded me to those old days, when people who felt very self-confident at that specific moment..started to bully others...and started to act like the forum would be "their".
And of course without any "valuable" post...

I have no hard feeling to Pharmour, just don't understand:
if you feel odd this "quote myself" thing, than why don't you join to my little conversation?
No...
Rather post a non-sense post.

Same here the day sisse left the eurusd thread ... even i left the thread ... even this thread is of no value if sisse stops posting ... and which cannot be denied by any1 who are active in this thread ....

So i request both of you not the start a cold war , we all have a war with the market ... so be all together to beat them in their own game ....

You are right pal. Have no friends here - thats true.
Just thougth you (or someone) can find value in my posts.

(you came from EurUsd thread also pal, but now you act like some kind of aristocrat landlord, lairdship)

As far as I can say: hathor has been once in a while posting some of his stuff - for me of absolutely no value as its not self explanatory and I do not understand his logic. However, its not frequent and it seems to be clearly market talk which may have value for some people who get it. So I do not think there is a problem with him posting here unless he spams the thread with his market talk which does not happen.

So I think the attack was not worth it unlike on some shi*theads who were spamming the thread not so long time ago. And now may be better if we get back to markets with some quality trading posts as is usual here

Hey guys, I closed all my positions (shorts - EURUSD) on monday. Looking for more shorts later on a new high (within the range extremes). I read the analysis of Danske bank and they expect the range conditions to continue because they don't expect a rate hike. But that's not the only reason (they list 10 reasons why in another analysis). I find their insights a valuable addition to what's happening here on the forum so I thought I'd share: http://danskeresearch.danskebank.com/link/WeeklyFocus160916/$file/WeeklyFocus_160916.pdf

I check their weekly focus regularly and they have some interesting points. See http://www-2.danskebank.com/danskeresearch for more articles if you're interested.

They project EURUSD going to 1.10-1.14 for the time being. December (or H1 of 2017) they expect a rate hike to happen. I don't believe every word they say blindly, nor do I believe everything in this thread, but it's nice to see multiple (researched/substanciated) opinions.

I am glad we have the same view. If no break at FED of course. So we have to wait for after the fact that the "extreme" doesn't turn into "momentum".
PS. my maps are a bit simplified. Still need to master drawing them better in time.

True, however; if there's a surprise hike I'd expect us to see momentum trades on both EU and GU, as neither have tested a new low- so my plan there will be to jump in and hold on, I imagine it'll be ugly for both sides so little leverage is a must

GU will be falling into uncharted territory- and monthly seems to favor the bulls technically- so a big WTF

Yes, IF.

Maybe I can't express myself well, maybe my market view/logic is not valid, maybe both. I don't know.
All I know is - I have to listen to my 'odd logic' and I share it with love

Sold EurCad. Time will tell.

2) Sep 16, 2016 11:02
'Seller's hat' has been formed.
Time to fall or fade.
Have a good day mates!

Cad new: negative
Technically: good buying level/position
Idealistic version: what a positive mix for EurCad, lets go higher
Crude version: very good situation for the filthy market makers
Well...lets see what kind of World we live in...

Squeeze is on.
AB=CD is finished, but still aiming its 127% extension.

5) Sep 19, 11:54
EurCad - done.
Eyeing with SP500...imho decline is in sight.

6) Sep 20, 15:56
Look like retesting of previous down move has been finished, lets see, if it can make new low.
In case of returning to daily top, I'm out (Stops are at entry).
