    Overleveraged Consumer

    Remember when we had no credit cards? Remember when gas was $1/gallon? Remember when you needed a job to buy a home? The world is aligned differently today. "Remember, remember, the fifth of November." :confused:

    TOS desktop users...do you lag? IT guys, need some help.

    So I opened up my TOS account, downloaded the TOS desktop trading app and I am lagging...freezing...bottleneck. Sometimes, I can't even load a webpage without a long lag. I am running XP pro, Verizon DSL 3 mbps (actual more like 2.3mbps), P4 w/1.5 Ghz RAM, cat5 cable direct into router from...

    "Fed's buying dollars!"

    15 yrs ago, I sat on a small spot desk. We used to say the Fed (CBs) was in the mkt and was buying or selling dollars. I rarely hear of this anymore...have they stopped? Anyone swinging "yards" here? Have I lost my mind?

    Short the Euro/USD Now!

    chaos, ...this might sound incredibly illilogical and a potential pride crusher...but, ever think about doing the opposite of what you're doing? It sounds like you're placing your stops where the public is placing theirs. You should be entering at those levels, not getting out. In most...

    December Gold (GCZ7)

    I think you can throw out #1. The fed would lose the zero credibility they have now.

    December Silver (SIZ7)

    I like watching long term charts...20-50 years or more sometimes. These levels on commodities are getting crazy. I think the silver bull argument is strong here. Currencies, metals, energy, ags, equities - all near record highs. So what's the Fed going to do? Cut, cut, cut 'till...

    December Silver (SIZ7)

    Realist, I enjoy reading your handiwork. Been thinking it's about time for silver to catch up to gold, I especially like the quiet breakout. I don't know much about silver supplies, any funnymentals that might support higher prices?

    $/yen

    to me, mkts are inter-related but also trade independently when certain levels are tested...but what do I know?

    $/yen

    ok, no more fun and games...hope none of you are long and good trading. I'll shut up now.

    $/yen

    too weak to even retest 114 at all...sell another

    $/yen

    you know just for the hell of it, let's put a paper trade on here...sell $/yen ...113.95 low. 114.23 stop.

    $/yen

    I haven't traded currencies in 15 years, but rather be short then long here. Short term levels being tested here is what I see. SP, $/yen, etc... NAS and DOW also close, $/yen may get crushed below 114 if US equities fail at those levels. Chicken or the egg potential.

    $/yen

    Just saying be careful if you're long equities...if the mkts stays weak and the yen keeps getting bid, stocks may go even lower. We have some potential vol pickup here. Look at gbp/yen, same thing...some interesting levels being tested here. but...what do I know?

    $/yen

    look at this - careful, stocks already under pressure...unless you're short of course. FF 100% chance of 25bps...baked and cooked?

    anyone watch the corp/treasury spreads?

    I looked around and did find a recent chart, but once again, nothing longterm. When I had my bloomberg terminal, I used to plot my own spreads. That thing is a beast of a research tool. I doubt most users utilize even half of its capabilities. Thanks for the help and make $.

    anyone watch the corp/treasury spreads?

    Thanks for the info. When I went to the site, I noticed the charts are very short term. Do you know of charts that go back a few years? Preferably 10 yrs or more? Thanks again...

    Crash Alert!! 10/16/07

    are there levels on the yen to force an unwinding of the carry trade? never understood when they turn on/off. Reversals/news failures/fakeouts can have great risk/reward ratios sometimes. The $ rally against GBP and Euro look like great setups, congrats. Hope you took advantage...
