Well, TooFuzzy, there are thousands, if not more, so called "wise" sayings that usually means nothing more than sayings from people that were not so wise after all because these sayings are based on global observations of mass behavior of the general population. . .a behavior that is driven by ignorance and fear. . meaning of course: The saying does not apply to people that are 1) not ignorant and 2) are fearless, as far as the saying pertains to a particular subject

This of course means that people that are fearless in one situation may well fear other situations. . .for example a 13 year old girl may be fearless in regards to sailing solo around the world but may fear snakes. . . you probably have heard about the Dutch 13 year old about which a Judge has decided today that it not necessary to remove the parental jurisdiction over this girl saying sol around the world. Something that would apply to 19,9999 % of parents of 13 year old girls does not have to apply to some girls that know more about sailing than 99.999% of the adults the world. At the same time this 13 year old may know less about surviving if while sailing the weather becomes rough or when she encounters other perils she may know nothing about.

In regards to investing it is no different. I know exactly what I am doing but I may not know enough about how a turbo generally moves in order to make a bundle the first time around. Just like the sailing-girl does not know enough about the detailed “weather mechanics" she is prepared to take the gamble that it will not get worth than she thinks she can handle. . . my situation is no different I am willing to gamble some money in order to learn turbo investing on the fly: I know what I am doing but do not know enough about “turbo mechanics”

I feel the USA has a great power to recover and therefore I gamble that the EUR/USD Index will drop before it hit the Stop-Loss. Today the EUR/USD Index and the value of my turbo dropped. Mostly due to a rising trend on the Dutch AEX Market. A great time to invoke my Vortex AIMing Method and buy extra. . .I did at € 2,81 knowing exactly that I wanted to gamble on a rising trend in the USA in response to the European markets. I figured that Americans would be inspired enough by the rise of the Euro so that later today the Dollar would gain in prince so that the EUR/USD Index would drop again and stay low over the weekend to drop more on Monday when Asia and Europe had realized that they were too positive on Friday, so that the EUR/USD would drop further yet. My Buy @ € 2.81 at midday, before the US market opened, will then pan out. If I am wrong my position might have been be liquidated at the closing time of the marker. .now about 2 hours ago. . . I have not peeked yet at the closing price, so I do not yet know if my “educated guess” paid off. . .I am not going to speculate as yet what “educated” means in this case J.

I am walking on the edge in this one.

Let those so called "wise" sayings not stifle the sense of adventure! I suspect that the EUR/USD Index will be € 3,50 on Monday.

Now it is your turn to be adventurous: "What will the EUR/USD Index be on Monday at 09:30 Amsterdam time in your opinion?"
