  2. Wow. I went out for a hour came back an the S&P futures were down 12 after hours and GBP/JPY down 100pips from when i left. Obviously the street not impressed by INTCs numbers and this will be met with selling by in the Asian session of the carry trade.

    209.21 st 210.5 tp 207.21, but ultimately i think we'll go to 2, so will review around Tp level.

  8. Must be a head fake. US Cpi figs out soon. CPI core will never be 0.1 or less. So I am shorting again here.
    208.61 st 209.11 tp 207.11

  10. Got up this morning to find my short closed and reversed. Now long. Also long GBP/USD. I'm not convince quite yet that the GY long is all that sustainable in the long term but short term is fairly stable with short covering and decent buying. All time frames are just about in harmony with a nasty trend reversing candle on the 4HR. 1HR easily broke it's upper channel trendline and 4HR just blew through it's R1. 211.00 is now R1 and R2 is +/- 211.95. 209.75 is S1 - thats the test to watch.
