That was a good call from July.

The Goldman are offering advice on what to do when the Fed makes its announcement this week.
http://www.efxnews.com/story/20743/what-expect-fomc-wed-how-position-goldman-sachs
We all trust them - don't we?

Our US Economics team expects the Fed to trim its monthly purchases of US Treasury bonds by US$10bn to US$35bn

Goldman got it wrong can you believe it.
Some of the 'smartest' brains in the country and they either got it wrong or misled their customers... how could that be. Sack them all instantly.

When Asia and Europe come back on line.

Should see some DMA margin call's.

Might try a half size DAX short at the top of your channel.

John Maynard Keynes has some excellent quotes.

Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.

If farming were to be organised like the stock market, a farmer would sell his farm in the morning when it was raining, only to buy it back in the afternoon when the sun came out.

Capitalism is “the astonishing belief that the nastiest motives of the nastiest men somehow or other work for the best results in the best of all possible worlds.”

I should have drunk more champagne.

More QE coming.

Soon you will be able to sell your council house in the UK and buy the White House in the USA.

Great way of getting rid of resistance area in the ASX and HK, gap above them
