Quote from makloda:
I remember there was a guy here on ET not too long ago who was advising people to switch the base currency of their trading accounts from USD to EUR (when it was trading at 1.50). Never saw him again.
Another guy on here suggested that Americans (living in the US!) should take their USD pay checks and exchange them into foreign currencies in order to hedge themselves against the imminent collapse of the USD. That was three months ago.
The screaming is always loudest at intermediate tops and bottoms.
