If you want to expose yourself to so many currencies on the short side, go for it. It doesn't sound like you're serious though, or even that the trade is worthwhile.

It's not the level that's giving me the signal, it's the timing.

I know what's in the dollar index. That's a red herring. If it makes you feel good to explain it, that's fine. Just don't come on here and try to lecture me.

Who wants out of the Euro? That is a myth. In fact the Euro has been a shelter for some of the worst countries. Secondly, the loans and real estate may be bad in the eurozone, but the US is in 10x worst shape. European banks had higher loan standards throughout the last boom. They are much more...

Listen, your douchbag attitude makes you sound more like a prick than an authority on the subject. So, even though you want to sound cool, or smart, you still have not made me change my bias. Short the dollar.

Yeah, but I'm saying it 'now', when the dollar index is hovering around the 87 area, not in the 70's. It's all about timing. I'm saying now is the time. But you have to scale in. Not all in right now. It's going to rally for the next few days, which in my opinion, will be the trade opportunity...

DO NOT SELL THE REAL ESTATE NOW! The real estate in the next 5 years will make you more money than the stock market. If you sell now, you are selling at the bottom. Take the 50k and mess around. If you are successful, then you will have more to play with. If you lose it, at least you still have...

I'm not talking just one cross pair. I'm talking the dollar index. You can access this using futures: DXY or IDX. The US government is going to need to finance more bailouts for banks. The federal reserve is going to open the money gun even more.

Why would you want this? You are better off with NYSE open book. But if this is what you want, I would go here http://www.directedge.com/API.aspx?s=subscriber and ask them directly.

The money gun is coming out again. Just wait.

There are no strategies in trading. It's all one thing, understanding market behavior. Knowing how markets move, and why. This understanding (or wisdom) allows you to trade any way, according to what opportunities you're seeing in the economic environment.

This dollar rally is full of hubris. Sell this sucker hard. Scale in every 50 pips double down. The US is about to enter a shit storm.

I think the data on china lately is bunk. There is a chance in my mind that we could see a major problem. I don't believe that the chinese consumer can absorb all the excess capacity that china has from the worldwide slowdown. Unless they do a huge currency devaluation, there is no way they will...

:eek: People say California is in bad shape, look at the east coast. Scheisse, this is setting up for a major fucking collapse. Bernanke needs to pull the money gun from the banks, and start dropping dollars from helicopters. Unless small businesses and consumers balance sheets are fixed...

Snake oil: Your system may be profitable for a few weeks, or a few months by a small margin. But with slippage, commissions, and other data issues and programming errors, over the long run, it will fail. Backtesting does not show true future results, it's just a gimmick. Thinking you can...

With China buying up and hoarding world commodities, huge monetary expansion, and an Asian style savings style, could we see them follow Japan's lost decade? The Chinese economy is continuing to grow, but only by their government intervention in the economy, forex markets, and huge monetary...

You have to wait until it breaks down before going short. The sign of a short squeeze capitulation is a high volume parabolic move, then you start seeing the short ratio come down as the price falls. If the short ratio increases on a pullback, it's going higher.

With 1.5 trillion of mbs's in the pipeline from the federal reserve, I don't see how deflation will continue from here on. That 1 trillion will be leveraged by banks 8-10:1. So, we're looking at 8-10 trillion dollars coming into the mortgage lending market in the next couple years. The jumbo...

Haha, so true. Vegas is dead, they need a new place to go. China government too strict in Macau.

A lot of those shit towns are in decline. But the prime real estate near the coatline is still holding up quite well. There are still people with money that have been waiting for 5-10 years for an opportunity like this.
