    Ivan's Trade Thread, part II

    TradingWise, hehe - yes - still on that long trade - and it's worth €12k still... It did start to look promising in JPY yesterday (weakening) - but it was because of the absolute havoc over there. I see that commentators are increasingly mentioning BoJ and MOF ... so something IS brewing. As...

    Back from seeing some more news ... Asian markets sharply lower - that is the erratic behaviour --- that means that it is risky business trading currencies right now. EURJPY will go upwards again... :D Great risk can mean great rewards or great ruins...

    Ivan's Trade Thread, part II

    I just stopped for thinking some moments .. the action is toying around ON EURJPY and EURUSD ... whiplashing. I think that is indicative of the creeping lower we saw up to this situation and some counter-measures into the market - which made it so erratic. That's it - I think it will go...

    I got that +35p on the EURUSD, but the size was crazy :) 03:27 -- stopped the EURJPY at +78pips - I don't get this anymore... I'm too tired. 03:28 and just as I say that and do the stop it jumps to 135.50... That's it - I just let go +52 more pips just because I'm tired .. hehe. 03:30...

    Wow, David - I would seriously reconsider that one... EURUSD going opposite of EURJPY - more risk to my EURJPY trade - but I got in with €1mn on the EURUSD at 1.3557 That EURUSD scalp looks very weak, but ... will decide roughly 03:06 CET. Ooops, my EURJPYs got stopped... at +15...

    OK, the spike down in EURJPY was a signal that something is going to be happening. Better watch a little and see how it plays out... I am looking for long entries here - but it doesn't completely look like the right time. Maybe I'll just go a little lighter wrt risk on EURJPY and then hold it...

    Prophet, what made you make that trade - just interested in your thinking... Personally I thought it was a very close stop for a small anaemic range which has already been touched 1.3580... i.e the risk of touching your stop is very great - compared to the possibility of reaching 1.37 first -...

    This is financial armageddon?

    LOL, I was thinking that I was coming down with the flu, but that picture really made my night. Thanks! Here're some in return... <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/p0LTu1ZmS1c&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen"...

    My profits are diminishing on my long trade - €15.5k now ... but also remember for tight stops - the trading hours are really not favourable for every kind of cross - so the risk will be different. Also - from the markets today - people will give some time to thought, which might make...

    What was that about?

    Hehe, it was just a silly poll if it would be OK to find out the identity of someone on ET, and then kill them... just a joke - but several (the majority?) voted that it would be allright. Of course, that is not "healthy" wrt what kind of "guidance" you would give people even on the Internet...

    Killing People Like Soros: Kosher?

    AAA, I assume Al Gore does not have the complete picture - especially of something as complex as climate change. Him identifying a stronger newly influence which offsets the balance, that is valid though - and it cannot be disregarded. It must be understood - but in the whole of the...

    My next prediction. (The Euro to fall apart)

    I won't be turning my back to you anytime soon then - thanks for the "heads up." :p PS! Lookup what "indoctrination" means - about being unable to view oneself with healthy scepticism or critical reflection...

    My next prediction. (The Euro to fall apart)

    You engaged me, remember? "Save the agenda-laden crap." Just like in any self-defence - if you attack me - you'll get what is coming. When you are a black-belt in some martial art, and then sparring with someone less experienced - most times you treat them carefully, not striking the living...

    Buying Euro

    This is what I mean about not trusting the 137.50 in the EURJPY, hehe... better wait for "trustworthy" conditions. I haven't been scalping today - because I don't "see the markets," but rather been posting here and reading up. And - I won't do any more reporting on trades I do... it's just...

    (and yet) "The Economy is fundamentally sound"

    They are lying through their teeth - because in the same breath they talk about systemic flaws and risks.

    My next prediction. (The Euro to fall apart)

    But it would be best that you made a bucketload of USD - before(!) it paired out, right? :)

    My next prediction. (The Euro to fall apart)

    I say "encourage" while you say "demand" - the difference lies in individual freedom and respect for others. That is what you are fundamentally mistaking - about reasoning and thinking - and also the flaw I consistently point out. To understand what is fundamentally communication, knowledge...

    My next prediction. (The Euro to fall apart)

    Actually, what I encourage is for people to start thinking and reasoning for themselves, and use that as a basis for their decisions - not buying into whole ideologies fabricated by others. You would have seen how I repeatedly make this point throughout my posts - if you'd be bother to read what...
