anyone looking to go long at the 200ma? Was that you Pennies that brought it up earlier?

well i had to step out, my limit buy hit at the weekly pivot, but I wasnt impressed so I took my 4 or 5 pips and got out... then had to run to a meeting, and now back I see that it was a good thing I did. Looks like it came within 50 pip or so of what I show to be the bottom of the LONG term up trend channel. So I would think that this area + or - 100 is critical to determining if the up channel holds or if the major reversal is called.

ok everybody row the other way now...

little further and my long will trigger... just a dozen more then thats enough....

Anyone have any thoughts on how to play this NFP? I was thinking about setting a limit buy at the weekly pivot, thinking the initial pop would be down, hit the pivot then head up toward the 1.51-52 areas... thoughts?

this freak candle has me confused. it me it seemed, new release... 5 minutes later... boom, now which way? I am proud that I was on the sidelines though. I did think about short at the R1 but chickened out thinking it was 'to da moon'.
HA!

No problem, any time. Im no professional like Pennies, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night...


Oh, meant to ask how you've been feeling lately... get those health issues under control I hope!

UGH, I just checked back in , had a limit short set on the euro... missed the trigger by ..... .00001 well at least it didnt run 100 points, just a dozen.

Either that or misery loves company...lol

kinda scary how we've been 'thinking' the same things lately... ***looks over his shoulder all paranoid***

short from here (1.5107) with a t/p back at the weekly pivot 1.4995 or so.

well I got stopped out with 15 pip profit... seems to be loosing steam, I was thinking it would make it to the R1 weekly, but now Im not so sure. Looks to be making one of them "hey Im going the other way" candles on the hourly. Almost London close, time to turn around eh.

anyone notice that gold broke the 1200 mark... come on e/u get on up there... t/p at 35 and short limit at 50.

WOW, what a list. Thanks!
RE: brokers,
Thought you were using Alpari, did you have trouble with them?

Would one of you please email me the IFT. I thought I had it already but I sure can not find it, and the copy and paste one in the ibox isnt working for me... thanks in advance!

bah humbug. maybe one of these days Ill learn. back to the drawing board.

sure would like to see that e/u drop a couple hundred this evening... Appreciate any help you guys can muster! LOL

ugh, I guess Ill hold my e.u over the weekend now. I dont know what I was thinking...

I wish, still 60 in the hole.
Good recovery on your swiped 20!

hope you go in big on e.u I need all the help I can get... I went in too early in about an hour ago and have gotten steam rolled. ouch.

All I can say about the e/u and gold is... WOW.

limit short set at 1.5102 - logic: the daily R3 at 1.5104 and weekly R2 @ 1.5106, should regroup from there... looking for about a 60 pip regroup, if it triggers. TGIW!

Well the DOW broke what I had for a resistance level... so now what? Maybe gold 1200 or more?

I am considering a long limit order right at the daily s2 of 1.4808 and with unemployemnet #'s coming out in just over 1/2 hr, we may head toward that 1.52 zone. JMO

Pennies, click the 'other' tab at the top, the look for image upload.

I didnt have a problem...???

Yeah Ive pulled about 10% this morning on this e/u move... when you look at the 4 hr on mt4, sure is a lot of red there... should move back toward the daily pivot, but who knows.

Good move! I like most here, am envious... and one day when my circumstances are favorable, I'd love to make the same choice.

Well it looks to me, like yesterdays HOD met the 50% fib point on the DOW, and I would suspect a strong down trend to develop from here. If I had to call it, I would say somewhere between 4800 and 6300 would be my thoughts. E/U should follow, like ST said this am, 1.30's or better. Time will tell. Crazy gold, I would guess back to the sub 1000 mark before Christmas.

wow, had a limit short set at 1.4985... then BANG, all the sudden Im 20 in the hole. Imagine that.

Bernanke - Excess Supply Of Labor Greater Than Suggested By Unemployment Rate


Hum so you mean them gubberment #'s might not be telling the entire story...

Bernanke: Fed will keep eye on sliding dollar, but pledges anew to hold rates at record-lows

what in the world could ben have said to cause that type response? Is he sending everyone a $1000 walmart card?

Dow getting close to the 10400 mark... Dont remember who it was that had the 'line' drawn there... maybe SG. 10440 if I remember right...

WOW, XAU to highs again this Sunday night...

Close enough... I knew I could count on you guys...Thanks! Im out, platform closed... enjoy the weekend! be safe!

How about one of you 'Pros', dump on the e/u for a brief moment and get it back to 1.4900 so I can clear out for the weekend.... pretty please.
Thanks

How about that 4 hr candle on the e/u.... reckon it will retrace?

It busted on me last night... oouch. It will take me a few weeks to recover... I think you did well in clearing your shorts... I should have when you did.

Fun times like this make me think I'd make more money delivering pizzas on the side.... :-P

Is the market open or closed today? FF calendar shows a banking holiday, but Im not sure about the markets??

Ditto the other posts... Take a break from the fried road kill and have a carrot stick once and a while and get to feeling better... Your in our prayers!
