What's all this emphasis on the TIC data? Did it really move the markets last time it was released? Honestly, it is not something that I have ever really focused on and I personally don't expect it to be a huge market mover either way. That's not to say that the market won't move today because...

This is the type of pearls of wisdom espoused by Fxsniper that make him so humorous (in a laughing at him sort of a way) to read. If you don't see anything wrong here, you've got problems: "I hold to the theory that a dollar can only be one place at one time. It may be that market...

Ivanovich, I'm afraid that you do not understand the history involved nor the Genesis of this thread. I believe that most people on this thread know each other. If not personally, through many conversations in cyberland. Of course there may be some lurkers who do not post, but I believe that the...

Prince of Forex has a nice ring to it, hmmm...Coming from Coinz, the one-time self proclaimed GOD of Forex? Have we been brought down to earth a bit. I certainly think that the Prince of Forex is at least a bit more 'mortal' than the God of Forex right? Fxsniper, might I suggest that you not...

My pleasure. The point is, all currencies are appreciating against the dollar. You can throw a dart and take your choice. In the end, EUR will do the same. For me, and I think for most traders, we all like to bet on the ones that get there in the smoothest manner. Bottom line, all currencies...

Hi Steve, Excellent question and frankly, one that I've been pondering for a while now. In fact, I'd take it further and think about Kiwi, AUD and CAD. I suppose that I chose EUR because it had the right 'volatility' characteristics for me. I felt that CAD is too boring and moves too slowly...

By the way, lest you think I'm a permabull, I intend to make just as much money when the EUR trends down (could be years down the road, I have no idea), than I am with the EUR trending up. I'm a trend follower. It will take a LONG time to convince me that this trend toward a weaker dollar (it's...

Ivanovich, I went back and read all 24 of your posts. It is either some arrogant negative comment on some previous post or it is a dollar bullish comment. I doubt that you have been long the EUR and as for the other issue, you are not the ET police, nor the judge and jury on someone else's posting.

By the way Snipe, the market is one living organism. It is similar to the human body which is made up of many tiny cells, DNA, RNA, etc. each pulling in different directions. The brain is made up similarly. The market is a collection of living tiny organisms each with their own opinions pulling...

Ivanovich, I would strongly suggest that you heed your own advice and stop being a dick. You know not what you say. Personally, I do not need to defend myself, my record or my comments. They speak loudly and proudly for themselves. I am free to say whatever I want and whenever I want. I can talk...

It's so funny how many people claim to love and respect the book Reminiscences of a Stock Operator but get involved in these ridiculous conversations about why things are going to go here and there and justification, etc. The answer to Ivanivich's question is, it's the Trend stupid- the single...

Keep thinking that way and you'll be relegated to drive a Pinto like Coinz. What could you have possibly seen that makes you think short side Sunday? It's impossible, you can't be thinking that!

By the way, if I'm the big hot shot hedge fund manager you refer to (thanks for the compliment), I have 100% of my liquid net worth invested in my Fund, I have my reputation and my career on the line. Don't you think that qualifies my trades as meaningful to me? I had a nice day today but still...

What if, against all possible causes, perceptions, reasoning and sanity, it starts falling? Falling to 1.2000... to 1.1800... to sub-1500s? I'd probably lose nothing just like you did when the market shot up 900 points against you. Seek professional mental help, seriously.

Good stuff, thank you very much!

That site is like crack (the globex book). Now I'll get even less sleep!

Nah, I told you, I like others to do my dirty work. :) Still on the bid at 129.10 for 99 left. Was hoping Coinz (fxsniper) would hit me since he thinks EUR is going down to low 1.2800s tomorrow.

Wow, thank you Chinook. That's wonderful stuff. Opens a whole new world for me. Thanks!

Just got hit on 1 contract at 129.10. Still there for 99 more. Anyone want to hit me while you still can? Next bid 1.2900 below.

Yes, I'm concerned about that. However, that's what has caused the choppiness that we've seen in the last few sessions, weeks, months. Otherwise, EUR would just go very smoothly to 1.35+. Overall, the $ weakness is so pervasive and pronounced across all currencies, EUR has no choice but to...
