A Lot More Directional

Quote from Jack_Larkin:

... dude, you had us thinking you blew up with that butt hurt thread about not being able to hit the side of a barn door.

I go through times where everything I touch turns to mud

man, I learned my lesson

got short the dollar like every good cnbc watcher and made some money

then I noticed Jan 1 2013 something was happening. Looked like fiscal cliff deal anticipation short covering so I got long and made some money

Then I figured the move was overdone and got short again

Then I realized I had been trapped by fomc

never again wil I get directional

I'm

long aud.usd
short eur.usd
long gbp.usd
long usd.cad

that makes me

long aud.cad
long gbp.cad
short eur.aud
short eur.gbp

and there I'll stay, doing my normal thing, adding and occasionally subtracting

at first it was a really big deal, hitting a new account high. Now I realize, that's just my normal job, and I'm supposed to do that every month.

ok, well that's good as long as you stay young

I sold some more on the way down

thereby lowering my average price

so now that makes me short from 3059

what a convoluted mess this whole trade has been
]
and 2013 started out so good

if I ever get out of this trade alive, I'm just going to go raise chickens

getting a little relief from that long aud.usd, that's a hard one, because I know they need to go down so bad. I'll be buying all the way down.

Sooner or later, someone is going to have to pay the piper. And if I don't run out of money first, I'll be collecting the tab.
