HAWKMOON and AMPRO: in previous posts, you both utilized the term " key drivers". Might I impose upon you both for a definition of this term? (or where I might go to learn further).Yen and Swissy X's have been good;{however,this is not "rocket science" and I desire to learn how to anticipate $...

Re: #54 This P.M. was reviewing M/W/D charts on G/Y and E/Y (as mentioned in a prior post to check out the latter for some clue to possible direction).Noted a slight blip and went to G/US and E/US. From an earlier Tech course (day trading variey), there was a general rule that E and G usually...

Thanks Again A-M Informative article, after several reads (like eating an elephant- one bite at a time) I have a few questions. How does injecting/withdrawing money into system keep interest rates at "targeted level"? Is the primary goal of " quantitative easing" to stabilize/strengthen the...

Today ( Dec. 5 ) doing my FA research. I noticed articles re: BoE and possible intervention(?); the WSJ ("considering.....unconventional steps to revive US economy") and Japan (re:rate cuts). There followed a talk of "Rinban", that I was unable to fully understand. Could I impose upon some...

Reviewed this thread on the weekend ( especially posts 33,34,35,48). Reviewed my cleaner M and W charts wrt trends.Decided that short was the way to trade on Sunday.Last week's retrace would have made me doubt myself and consider Hedging. The G/Y movement today proved the wisdom of your...

Less Equals More That was one of the items that was bothering me during chart reviews (one or two would say "go"; others would be neutral or suggest reversal on that TF.) it made for the crystal ball to be murky. The charts and info provided yesterday, made it easier for me to choose a...

Well, if you wish to make God laugh- make plans. I had every intention of doing serious reading tonight. Due to increased demand on my time, I was only able to review the charts AMPRO and HAWKMOON kindly provided. Reviewing the charts repeatedly ( to me they complimented each other) an "AHAH"...

ping pong Gambling was the key word today. Some players were certainly flexing their muscles. I feel the rest of the week might be interesting and the 148-151 band bears watching. Plan to spend some serious reading tonight when work finishes.

Thanks AMPRO and HAWKMOON Indeed, the 148-151 looks like an interesting area for bull/bear interaction. I believe the Mizuho site suggested a Nov month close greater than 150 for hope of a upswing. If, less. then was suggested that 139 could be successfully retested.

AMPRO, thank you once again. I appreciate the time and effort that you have taken to respond to my queries. The quality of your responses have been amazing. I read and re-read the posts by you and WASP. Each time,there is a further nugget of information ( a different perspective) to assist my...

AMPRO and WASP All of the above was "spot on"! Since reading the suggested sites and others, FA has added appreciably to my trading decisions. Less anxiety and second guessing before commiting to a trade.NO being stopped out of a trade ( due to a loosening of stops) , patience; as I now am more...

Have spend several hours reading and re-reading the material from the sites provided and a few lights are beginning to turn on. The info provided has also enabled further clarification of the various posts ( esp. #19 and #7). Looking at the Monthly and Weekly charts on the G/Y, I have a better...

Too true! I would sometimes find myself looking at reams of indicators on different TFs and end up up not knowing in which direction to trade. I have been pleasantly surprised with some of the FA reading material that you have provided. I seem to get a more firm idea of where the future moves...

The BNP Baribas has been extremely useful. Gave me a good view into the future. Have not completely digested it, but some important insights as to what I lack in my trading decisions. ( am I going over to the "dark side")? Today was an excellent example of why I desire more Fundamental knowledge...
