Ya mean their own board....or this board? ;)~
& I gotta say.....
even tho the trend is your friend & all that blah blah....gettin real hard to go short aud here.....I wont be surprised if it tests the highs on the week north of 70.
Then again if not & I'm wrong....that might be less of a surprise ;)~
...so maybe it's not all that wise afterall ta have a female overseeing trading ops? ;)~
05 & 32 are fairly close to one another on the keypad :0
but now after lookin at what its' done since.....even @ 32 you'd be in pain...albeit not quite as much of course.
yeah..that sure wreaks either way ya look @ it.....seriously....really sorry about that one.

Interesting lil stock tidbit.....
bein that the mrkt is where it was a decade ago.....if you woulda held a 4% dividend yeilding stock all these yrs & simply added that dividend back into your position...even w/the stock going nowhere, sitting here @ b/e after a decade you'd still be up 48%.
& under the "did u know header"
40% of the total return delivered by the S&P500 is in the form of dividends.
Now if that's not a case for dividend stocks....not sure what is?

a 27 pip diff.....
how can they do that? are you saying you put in a standing order to short @ 6732 & they filled you at 6705?
I must be missing something here.....did the spreads perhaps get really whacked out for a few mins....maybe this what u r gettin at?
Otherwise I can't imagine how they could get away w/such a thing.
Well I'm sorry to inform you but you are not the only dollar bear 'round here.
ya just gotta guess when the fix will be off & hold on for quite the bear ride when they finally decide this run is over.
& to this end....I'm really rootin it for it to go up even more b/c the harder they rise, the harder they fall.

"Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing."

1 would think.....
tho I'm beg to have another school of thot on the matter....perhaps the powers that be are gonna keep proppin it up as only they can since the US is in the funk that it be...& most likely will be for quite sometime ta come. After all....it'd sure be the double whammy of double whammy's if the greenback was totally in the crapper at the same time as the econ in genl...we couldn't possibly have that now could we? Of course not...so perhaps the bull dollar argument holds some weight to it....just not on the fundamental side....but it seems as of late that no one really gives a hoot about fundi's anywho.
So now u watch....just as I'm beg to maybe change my tune a bit.....down it'll fall & this post will be nothin more than blowin more smoke....& speakin of which...that's quite the peace pipe there....me'um Sitting Bull say....dollar should be no'good'um but the gods do not agree....so far....so perhaps me'um Sitting Bull be on da'pipe a lil too much..so we'll be passin it 'round now.

"Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing."
Warren Buffet
Here's a hack copy & paste job from the Currency Trader piece.....sorry if it doesn't read exactly as it should....but ya get the gist....there's also a few charts in this article that I was not able to copy.
Gotta run....back a lil later on....
The Rand’s Rocky Road
South African economic fundamentals won’t be doing the country’s currency any favors in the months to come.
A slowing growth picture, weaker commodity prices, political instability, and emerging-market risk aversion are just a few
of the negative factors plaguing the South African rand (ZAR) in recent months. The currency has been on a weakening trend
since the start of 2008 and recently touched its lowest level since February 2003 as the mid-September global market panic
reached its peak (Figure 1).
In January, the U.S. dollar/rand pair (USD/ZAR) was trading as low as 6.69, but rallied as high as 8.36 by mid-September
during the global rush to exit positionsand limit exposure (Figure 2).
Even this year’s all-time record high move in the gold market in March failed to inspire rand bullishness — and gold has
always played a pivotal role in South Africa’s economy and currency. For years the rand was considered a classic
gold proxy trade, as South Africa was the world’s leading producer of the metal. Ashraf Laidi, chief FX strategist at CMC Markets, says the correlation between the rand and gold has been falling apart.
“In 2008, South Africa is no longer the number one gold producer,” he says. “In 2007, China became the number one gold
producer.” On-going issues with electricity power
outages, which power the gold mines, have been a factor in decreasing production from South Africa. South Africa’s mining production declined for five straight years into 2007. In 2007 alone, gold production fell eight percent.
Dwindling Growth:
After posting strong 5.1-percent gross domestic product
(GDP) growth in 2007, forecasts for 2008 are much lower.
Ideaglobal estimates the 2008 rate to be in the 3.3 to 3.8 percent range, while Moody’s Economy.com expects growth
around 3.4 percent. South Africa is generally regarded as the economic powerhouse of Africa, with strong trading flows with Angola, Zimbabwe, and Germany. Within the financial world,
investment-grade credit ratings and high internal interest
rates have attracted investment and carry trade flows in
recent years. However, currency strategists say the positive
fundamental perception is beginning to crumble.
“South Africa’s outlook has deteriorated since the start of
the year,” says Ruth Stroppiana, chief international economist
at Moody’s Economy.com. “As the business cycle slows and household spending eases under the weight of tighter monetary conditions, growth is forecasted to decelerate from the heady heights reached in previous years.”
Alvise Marino, emerging-market economist at Ideaglobal, says it has been a significant slowdown. “Four years of boom were fueled by consumer demand, and a lot of it was fueled by credit,” he says. “Over the past five years consumer-credit debt has grown relative to GDP. It’s at 78 percent right now. The fallout is an increase in personal bankruptcies.”
Inflation Recent government data reveals inflation is still pushing higher and is well above the central bank’s inflation target of 3 to 6 percent. “Inflation has been outside their band for a year now,” Marino says.
The most recent data available (August) revealed a 13.6-
percent CPIX inflation rate, which excludes mortgage costs.
South Africa’s official repo rate (the central bank lending
rate) stands at 12 percent, as the central bank has been in a
tightening mode since June 2006. However, economists see signs the South African Reserve Bank’s tightening cycle has peaked. In the intermediate term, the pullback in global commodity prices points to a more moderate inflation outlook.
Political upheaval: The political turmoil ushered in by the recent power struggle within South Africa’s dominant political party, theAfrican National Congress (ANC), only added to rand uncertainty. On Sept. 25, Kgalema Motlanthe became South Africa’s new president, replacing Thabo Mbeki. One-third of the Mbeki cabinet had resigned that week. “We do not expect any immediate change in economic policy, yet even the increased perceived risk of an upheaval of the business-friendly policy which Mbeki has stood for will be enough to keep investors wary of South African markets,” Marino says.
No relief in sight: There are few bullish silhouettes on
the horizon for South Africa and currency strategists see risk of further rand weakness. “The combination of moderating
commodity prices and the country’s deteriorating economic outlook will weigh on the rand in coming quarters,”
Stroppiana says. “South Africa is definitely in the
doghouse in terms of fundamentals,” says Brown Brothers
Harriman’s senior currency strategist Win Thin. He sees the potential for more depreciation in the rand ahead, with the USD/ZAR pair in a likely range of 8.00 to 8.50.
Waiting on Washington: With the fate of the U.S. financial
system extremely uncertain, global money managers could continue to shy away from emerging-market opportunities in favor of perceived “safe-haven” plays. “The global macroeconomic outlook and the forces associated with the U.S. government proposed intervention is going to have a pronounced
affect on ZAR trading,” says Larry Goodman, head of emerging-market strategy at Bank of America.
Of the potential $700 billion bailout package, Goodman says its specifics and how well it is communicated in terms of shaping global confidence will impact high-yield emerging-market currencies in the weeks and months ahead. {END}

Edit: Now y on earth would u say a thing like that...after all...it aint like Paulson is still there...lol

So I gotta side w/Nettles once again.....not only would I not be trusting of GS...I think I'd use them as a barometer for what not ta do. :0
At any rate....just thot I'd share some info from the other side of the fence on this one.

indeed that was a classic.....gotta love La-dee-dah...hehe
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=32938761
closing out the xau @ 797 for a lil over $3/oz tp.....
now about that aud....down 22 from the 70.17 entry
yeah....what he said.....only prob is.....
I think our younger gen of today (at least those who are 20-30 y.o....if that's still considered young..lol) will be suffering right along w/us for quite sometime. & the sad thing is...it's really not the kinda suffering u r ref to. Suffering to help make the future brighter....we're suffering b/c of the dues we're just beg ta pay thx to past admins.
Tho hopefully folks will finally wake the F up & be willing to make the sacs needed to help ensure a brighter/cleaner & thus more efficient future. Just thunk if we woulda started down this conservation path when Carter was Pres....all the money & resources we woulda saved by now...& surely our dependance on oil wouldn't be nearly what it is today...most likely forcing opecs hand w/lower prices....gas would be closer to $1-1.50/gal tops & most likely closer to $1/gal.
& speakin of the future....heard Ron Paul give a 30 min speech that was aired on CSPN this wknd....he was speakin to the John Birch Society. Now there's a Republican I would consider giving my support to...& I say speaking of the future b/c he spent much of his talk focusing on our youth of today. He's impressed w/how they seem to be focused on the right core set of values...conservation, self-responsibility & the willingness to get out there & work for a better future. Sure is a nice change from all the yrs of the "Me Me Me" gens of the late 70's right up thru the early 90's.
Sure hope he's right about the younger gen....we surely cant afford goin down the same path as we have been...& if anyone thinks Obama is gonna offer the kinda dramatic change we need....I'd be awfully cautious there.
At any rate....ya sure got your head screwed on right as far as I am concerned UB.

Too much work for the buck indeed...especially if one is on the left coast clock as far as 4x goes. That's def something else I should consider....going for the long term trade....set it & forget it.....guess tho the flip side is ya gotta have wide stops...& of course the stomach & ammo...note to self.
Also long gold here @ 793.875 while short aud/usd @ 70.17....kinda hedgin myself I realize but I think both trades should eventually come home to roost tho not at the same time of course.

"Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing."
Warren Buffet
yeah...think I finally figured that one out last summer....last wknd in June/1st week in July when Trichet was rumored to raise'em. As I recall the euro rallied hard for several days (weeks) into that announcement....so hard that I thought when he finally does raise'em, I just couldn't see the euro gonna higher still. So I thought ya know what....betcha as soon as he raises, it'll fall like a rock....the trade that goes against conventional wisdom I guess you could say.
So he raised.....nothing happend at 1st....then approx an hr or so later.....down it went...& down hard. I made a demo killing on it & then thought...just wait for the right set up...no need to try & trade the daily charts....or if ya do...just nickel & dime it while u r waiting for the big trades ta set up like that euro call a few mos ago.
Anyway....indeed it's trades like that which can really give ya a huge payday if u r waiting & at the ready for it. Kinda hard to find those trades today in this mrkt dynamic tho...thnigs are so messed up now it's hard to know what's really gonna occur...more or less when.

Agreed....thinken of finally gettin my acct funded for this reason.
Actually only thinken of trading solely for what could be considered no brainer events such as this...tho the gambler in me knows better....I'll most likely end up tradin the charts on a daily basis once funded....against my better judgement.
My goal will be not to make $$$ tho at the beg...just wanna prove to myself that I can hang onto'em while waiten for the no brainer trades to set up.
I did go back & edit my last post....added a comment or 2 that pretty much is inline w/your thots on the matter.

So what ya thinken....
76-78 neighborhood?
& mind ya I think that should be considered a conservative retrace.....the low 70's or at least re-testing the previous lows (or at least the high end of those lows) is what should be occuring....the ol double bottom effect.

Good read Bud....
makes one wonder why folks dont even give folks like Barr (or Nader for that matter) more of an ear....& I guess I could also add Ron Paul in there too.
Amazes how folks truly feel they are open to at least listening to the views of others, yet when asked what some of the other platforms are all about w/re to this economic situation...most folks haven't a clue.
All they can say is...Obama wont raise taxes on those who make less than 1/4 mil/yr or that McLame wont raise'em at all...& for this they feel that's all they need to know & tune everything else out...so shallow.
yes, & b/c of the above...in short, we're all screwed.

you interested? I was gonna ask Nettles but I'm not so sure she wears lipstick? :0
Hi Friends . . . . . I’m against the $85,000,000,000.00 bailout of AIG. Instead, I’m in favor of giving $85,000,000,000 to America in a “We Deserve It Dividend.”
To make the math simple, let’s assume there are 200,000,000 bonafide U.S. Citizens 18+.
Our population is about 301,000,000 +/- counting every man, woman and child.
So 200,000,000 might be a fair stab at adults 18 and up.
So divide 200 million adults 18+ into $85 billon that equals $425,000.00.
My plan is to give $425,000 to every person 18+ as a “We Deserve It Dividend.”
Of course, it would NOT be tax free.
So let’s assume a tax rate of 30%.
Every individual 18+ has to pay $127,500.00 in taxes. That sends $25,500,000,000 right back to Uncle Sam. But it means that every adult 18+ has $297,500.00 in their pocket. A husband and wife team has $595,000.00.
What would you do with $297,500.00 to $595,000.00 in your family?
Pay off your mortgage - housing crisis solved.
Repay college loans - what a great boost to new grads.
Put away money for college - it’ll be there.
Save in a bank - create money to loan to entrepreneurs.
Buy a new car - create jobs.
Invest in the market - capital drives growth.
Pay for your parent’s medical insurance - health care improves.
Enable Deadbeat Dads to come clean - or else.
Remember this is for every adult U S Citizen 18+ including the folks who lost their jobs at Lehman Brothers and every other company that is cutting back. And, of course, for those serving in our Armed Forces.
If we’re going to re-distribute wealth let’s really do it…we’re going to do a $85 billion bailout, let’s bail out every adult US Citizen 18+!
As for AIG - liquidate it. Sell off its parts.
Let American General go back to being American General. Sell off the real estate.
Let the private sector bargain hunters cut it up and clean it up.
Here’s my rationale. We deserve it and AIG doesn’t.
Sure it’s a crazy idea that can “never work.”
But can you imagine the Coast-To-Coast Block Party! How do you spell Economic Boom?
I trust my fellow adult Americans to know how to use the $85 Billion “We Deserve It Dividend” more than do the geniuses at AIG or in Washington DC.
And remember, This plan only really costs $59.5 Billion because $25.5 Billion is returned instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam.
Ahhh…I feel so much better getting that off my chest.
PS: Feel free to pass this along to your pals as it’s either good for a laugh or a tear or a very sobering thought on how to best use $85 Billion!!

"Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing."

Under the topic of "did u know?"
Back in 2000 Paulson who at the time was head of Goldman testified in front of Congress that in order to be more competitive w/the European's....they needed to go from 15-1 to 40-1 leverage...& at the time he was denied....I think they said Levitt (whoever he was/is) was the main one responsible for seeing to it that Paulson got denied. Mind you of course Paulson was not the only one who was lobbying for this at the time. Move forward 4 more years & Paulson gives the same speech to Congress for which he was finally granted approval to take it up to 40-1.
Now 4 yrs later where are we?....Paulson of all folks is now asking to be bailed out...tho now not as the head of GS of course as we all know.
I think this is what is meant by the phrase...the fox is guarding the hen house.
Fast Money & Ratigan have really been great at explain'n all this...& it seems as if he's really tryin to dig to the bottom of all this & find just exactly where & how this all went south...& the more I watch & learn....the more sickening it gets...& I'm sure as this story unfolds it's gonna get uglier no doubt...the corruption, greed, manipulation & conflict if interest...especialy as it relates to Paulson. & yet here we are allowing him to oversee this bailout. WHAT ON EARTH ARE WE DOING!!!?????

are u kidding me?......
not only do I think things for the most part wont change under an Obama regime....they'll most likely get worse....especially econ policy wise...not that I think a Mclame office will fare any better....but the way I see it...it's gonna take a tremendous change in how everything is run to see any significant change. & I surely don't see that drastic of a change in an Obama white house....not even close.
Put Nader in there & then we may see some change w/in a few yrs or sooner....Ron Paul too imo.
Nope...dem or gop....we're screwed either way..

OK....I got 2 hrs of Fast Money ta watch....& speakin of which.....anyone here join Ichan's group yet?
At a minimum, this is a very fundamental change that needs to occur...so even if you are one of those folks who dont vote (especially if u r 1 who doesn't vote) you should seriously consider puttin your name on that list. This sick greed has got to be stopped & it sure doesn't seem as if Uncle Sam really wants to do that much about it....it's gonna take a public outcry I'm afraid & this is what Ichan is trying to captialize on...do it while folks are PO'd.

Yes....actually been tapin it for the last coupla weeks now....I gotta head out the door 1/2 way thru each day for my 1st grade p/up....so I cant watch the last 30 mins til later on in the eve when the lil 1's are upstairs bein read their stories.
Buffet now in....guess the bottom is w/in 5-10% now...tho the sell off at the end of the day was a lil shocking to me....yeah itza Fri & all BUT w/the news that Buffet is in & that it's his own personal acct I woulda thot more folks woulda been buyin in to that.
I'm now revisen the bottom call...& finally I'm revisen up....hehe
8200-8500....so the double bottom may very well be a higher bottom than the 1st.....wonder if Paulie has a pic of a gal w/1 cheek that's a lil higher than the other? ;)~
& I gotta tell ya...been visiting a few of the conspiracy threads over the past week or so....a few comments....man alive are many of those folks F'n NUTZ!!
A) they think they know finance but it is evident they really know squat!
B) most are angry up da waaazooo.....everyone is suspect in their eyes....I think they feel I'm a captalistic pig who was sent there ta spy on'em...lol
& C) wondering if most are so far off on drugs to the point where their paranoia is actually reality....many times they seem to be contridicting themselves. Poor folks are so damn confused.....their stories change so many times they have no clue which end is up :0
Hard to disagree....

http://www.cnbc.com/id/27239479/site/14081545
well at least Buffet is buyin now....& NOT w/Berkshire $$$$...his own personal acct.
So perhaps we're w/in 5-10% of the bottom.....dont think Warren would be off by more than that.
I'm out.....'njoy the wknd all.

Agreed....not sayin it's gonna happen..at least anytime soon...don't get me wrong on that. I may be on the fringe...but I haven't fallen off...yet...lol
But as mentioned.....the fact that they are even talking about it is scary in & of itself. & it's not like they'd have to get everyone onboard all at once mind you.....just a few major countries at first....which would then just about force others (at least the ones who're geogrpahically close) to get invloved as well. Heck....did they not already get the ball rollin w/the euro?

Sure....if u r willing ta give up approx 30% off the top.
tell ya what.....as far as 4x goes....even a self-proclaimed pro will wipe ya out just as fast as u can wipe yourself out. In fact some may say that u will be able ta hang onto your $$$ longer as u will treat it differently.....especially if the acct begins to dwindle.
Having said that...I was considering this when the cAt was doin this a few mos back.....sendin him some $$$ & if there was any profits I was gonna take those & trade w/em myself. As I recall, he did get up fairly quick...(other folks...I never did send him $$$)...had a very good 1st mos - 6 weeks...after that I think is when the clouds began to gather....not sure where his venture is at now? Perhaps he can give us an update when he comes up for a lil air down there deep in the heart.
But that's just one example....even someone as savvy as the cAt will have trouble...so I'm not sure if 30% off the top is worth it? Even the other T/A Guru who began the pip'n board got his handed to him fairly quickly.
This mrkt is nutzo right now & will most likely be for quite sometime....not so sure I'd wanna go the managed route...or at least til things mellow out some & get back to "normal" trading ranges...whatever that will prove to be?
