I think I, and most others, would appreciate keeping this thread civilized. From all apparences this is not a "my junk is bigger than yours" thread, but an exploration of ideas, starting by a person who is searching for something beyond pinbars, to try and gain a better understanding of what is actually going on in the market.

I find this thread very interesting, and would hope some of the more egotistical of you could tone it down a bit as to not scare others off.

Last year while I was in Japan, there was a few weeks where I stopped trading, took a pen and paper and tried to "draw a market" out with descriptions, in terms of supply and demand only.

It was a difficult exercise, but I am going to try it again. Having a good understanding of what is causing price to move is very important to me, I have no faith in indicators / strategies using calculations of past price to try and predict future movements, so trading that way just doesn't work for me. I really want to gain as good an understanding as I can of why price is actually moving.

This thread is helping me, and I hope it can continue in the manner it has before the last few hours...

I think for me I am going to do some research on electronic markets and how they work. Until then I don't think I can add much to the conversation.

Guiana? I Spent two years in Japan, but never made it to France

I made some great friends in Japan, 2 of whom I would probably consider my new best friends.

I have in the past watched fx futures, and I started an IQfeed demo this week with CME data and market depth. Of course I have no idea what I am looking at yet...
