This is my new journal recapping my views on what happened weekly in the ForEx market.
You're invited to look at my journal but I don't recommend reading it.
For those of you new to trading currencies, "ForEx" stands for Formidable Executions. A method of trading, traced back to Iraq, involving currencies and other types of money, coins and cash. Beef jerky is also sometimes seen floating around the open market.
The main rule is, whoever has the most, wins the most.
This week (18th - 24th) the big event was the yen falling against the USD - 220-pips (or, points, depending on which side of your monitor you're closest to).
This tumble is seen in a chart as a spike UP because chart-makers never figured out how to make the yen look like it's falling on a chart when it falls.
The remedy for this is to sit upside down on your chair at your desk.
If your monitors are plugged in somewhere else, then have someone roll your chair to where they are. Or, try to skate yourself along with your hands dragging on the floor.
It is not advisable to sit upside down on your toilet, though, in case your monitors are kept in your bathroom.
Water can run up your nose, that makes the charts look blurry.
The reason for the fall in the price of yen was determined to be due to a man named Tosh Fukui, running through the streets of Japan in a panic Monday, screaming, "The sky is falling! The sky is falling!"
It turns out Tosh is not related to the BoJ's Gov. Toshihiko Fukui, though numerous newspapers immediately quoted Tosh's exclamations.
Asked later what all his commotion was about, he shook his head slowly and said he was misquoted, that he wasn't saying, "the sky," but rather, "Thaskiee," the name of his girlfriend who recently broke up with him and began dating a Sumo wrestler.
"I just kinda snapped," admitted Tosh, "The pressure finally got to me, I guess. Sitting awake all night long, clicking though my old digital pictures of my girlfriend. Thinking about that big, fat wrestler sweating all over her all night... she was such a virtuous girl once...," Tosh added as his right eyelid twitched uncontrollably.
"Once," being the keyword there.
