Where will you park your lear jet?
"Anyone who is of the view it is more likely than not they taper tomorrow is misguided... if you think i am wrong then the dollar is begging to be bought and you don’t need to have any other position than long the dollar buy it now and since you’re sure they taper – spend the afternoon ordering your lear jet or yacht because you will be one of very few winners tomorrow ..."

In my opinion this is a set up for a no taper announcement with a spike upwards and then a big down move. 'cause the taper IS coming and its getting closer every day.

No. It's called the edge and it's on John Bollingers site. It gives stats as to week / strong days on days of the week/ months/ holidays and sequences. Yank only so only good for dow or s&p. I've got a month free trial (without taking payment details!!!) So if you want to play with it just ask and I'll run it.

ok, someone posted a moving average backtesting tool , you could enter tw ma's and it tells you how you would have done ,

the best combinations were when one ma was half of the other , like 30/15 or 21/10

6 years into this U-S-A (shout it out) created economic pile of excrement and not one of the UK MPC thinks we should consider raising interest rates.
Exactly how much did our cousins across the pond shaft us?

Buy the dips until it rips,
then run like rats from sinking ships.
