whew! good day for me in the forex market glad I was in who knows what will happen tomorrow on Friday then we have New Years to navigate And that is one holiday celebrated by almost everybody otherwise, a whole month's worth of sins forgiven in just one day after Christmas say what you want about Jesus, but on a forex day like today, you gotta love him
