    Ivan's Trade Thread

    I think the EURUSD is a bit choppy at the 100ish pip scale. It is still in the +/- around 50 pips area from your trade, but very uncertain as to details of where it will go next. I think there is a rationale and good probability it will flip over 1.40 again this week. Surely the market...

    Russa Invades Georgia - Full Scale Invasion

    Like I pointed out earlier in this thread... South Ossetia now wants to join Russia - the only natural, reasonable choice they have as a weak ethnic minority who can not trust the rest Georgia and especially the government of Saakashvili. The leader of South Ossetia said Thursday that the...

    GDP #'s rigged

    There is a reason that GDP numbers are constantly revised and 20-20 hindsight on increasing time scale gaps are all subjective to reason adaptation - self-justifying and adjusting. This constantly feeds into market reasoning... :)

    cabletrader, yes, always true - and good to scale appropriately with those strategies - balancing risk size and timeframes. I do think that if the 1.36 - 1.40 EURUSD area becomes prevalent in trading sessions forward through the US election, then there is a good set-up for establishing and...

    EURUSD waking just on the edge of and below of 1.3940 it seems set to spike down with some tension surmounting, afterwards which there is a good probability for a relapse shooting up over 1.40 again. Appears like it's looking for some choppiness in my opinion... A good rationale for this is the...

    Risky trying to catch intermediary bottom so soon... but looking good so far; it looks like a moderately anticipating market breaching 1.40. Any scaling strategy? :)

    Ron Paul Throws Support To Cynthia McKinney

    Indeed a very strange move... As a rule - supporting the larger green supporters might seem sound, but they seem to really have pushed the envelope on the US population with a coloured female candidate... More of a statement than any real impact on outcomes. :D Ron Paul's economic...
