    well - good luck with that. I am betting on flattening sell-off from here...

    And Ben says NOTHING!

    second that. This board is full of suckers who think that Fed is here to offset their trading incompetence. In fact I think that was the best speech I remember in the past several years - he could not be any clearer.

    Crude spiked to $68 briefly AH

    good question! I saw Eurasia poll recently (asked largely of traders and investment pros) and if I remember well the premium was deemed to be less than $5 (when barrel was $60). So I guess it is somewhere in $5-$10 range ($10 assuming that all tensions in Middle East would go completely away -...

    *** My Trading Plan ***

    and OP - you should read Businessman's advice from top down - not the other way round. In trading one of the biggest differences is between being brave and being stupid - most of successful traders learn it the hard way though - so go ahead as you wish...

    *** My Trading Plan ***

    to the OP. wtf is this? is this some kind of high school game? I do not understand your plan at all. For instance why do you push yourself into a trade with minimum size? the only thing I got is that you want to be rich - well nothing wrong about that. Just make sure you practice on level 1...

    Bernanke speaks with forked tongue

    I am with Ivanovich on this one (assuming he is sarcastic). Yes - there are times when fed is not needed in monetary policy (in fact likely 99%+ of time) but I still see some value added in remaining 1%. If things turn really ugly (panic^5) what do you do? That said I would like to have fed...

    Dow 12,000

    I presume you did the opposite to what I was suggesting. One thing I learned here is that there are a lot of clueless people - which is great for future of trading :D don't worry - it will get better for you :(

    US$ dropped to 2-yr low vs Euro

    true - this is a bit confusing. But effectively what the fed is saying is that if there is any problem they are ready to helicopter in. That takes complacency back into the market making carry trade attractive again. imho

    US$ dropped to 2-yr low vs Euro

    is this some kind of ito hallucination? by the way there is a "Check Spelling" button when you post, i.e. you can have your vomit grammatically correct. "Brentwood" has maybe something to do with Brent crude but definitely not with the gold standard. Have you ever been to China? No...

    Dow 12,000

    very likely i am speaking longer term than you. i did not like the statement at all - US economy needs confident tone from fed especially because of its dependence on foreigner capital inflows. Statement like that undermines price stability, long term yields, dollar and reduces US wealth. If...

    Dow 12,000

    wtf it looks that even I will become US market bear. tommorrow looks extremely dangerous - both for bonds and stocks. I bet we will get some talking from the fed soon about how serious they are about inflation fighting - only this time everybody will give a ****.

    Bond rally nearing an end?

    that's like fixing your car by throwing it over the cliff. both the weak dollar and pile of cash will inflate economy for years - even today the part of the inflation is lagged from dollar depreciation in the past few years...add to it outflow of foreigner money (already happening) and I am...

    Bond rally nearing an end?

    I feel like an idiot - I was just about to start to believe that this fed is different - and would care about inflation. just another corrupt (or stupid?) bunch of socialists.
