You left out a big step there, though. Before we leave, Trump is gonna seriously weaken Iranian influence in Iraqi and the region. Just up and leaving without doing that first would probably be a mistake. You think it was just a coincidence that ...

Yep, sure "appears" that way, don't it?... but keep in mind that high-stakes politics almost always involves some degree of Kabuki Theater.

You're right that the U.S. played a huge role in destabilizing the region. But it's VERY important to remember that that was Pre-Trump. Almost everything we've done over there over the past couple decades was OPPOSED by Trump, and he continues to ...

Wait, doesn't Trump WANT to leave Iraq? Wasn't that one of the things he ran on during the campaign? He distanced himself from the likes of Bush (and even Obama) regarding Iraq, including the idiotic war/invasion itself? So... hmm... now they are ...

Hey man, I haven't been around much the past few months, though my New Years resolution is, of course, to restart and this time become filthy rich!
Anyway, just stopping in for a second to say hi, and Merry Christmas to you and any of the ..."AUSSI" my thread and anything I want to put here

Yes, we've all tried to help Tony during these difficult times, but he's just a really slow learner... sad really.

I've always preferred scalping over any other type of trading. But thanks to all the crazy news-related moves over the past few weeks, I'm now considering going even further. Really short-term, small-gain trades... maybe shoot for 3 or 4 pips max, 5 ...
Brexit Deal Hopes Rise As ‘Last Minute Compromises Are Made’

Yeah, and here's my theory on that: Normally an opening gap is closed pretty quickly, and often thereafter price reverses again and heads back in the original direction. So maybe here, this is planning to drop so far (due to the "bad" Brexit news ...

I don't think I've ever gone into a trade with hedging specifically in mind. Like most others have said, I can't really see the logic in that... or at least the required timing and discipline required is beyond my capabilities.

Yep. I wasn't happy when Trump brought in Bolton, because like you say he's always been a warmonger. Of course I knew if anyone could keep him under control, Trump could. I mean just use Bolton for his vast knowledge-base, but NOT really use any of ...

A lot of people (especially those with TDS) really have no idea how Trump works. They think he's a moron and super compulsive. Which is just the opposite of reality, and is a huge reason he won (and is still winning)... because people drastically ...

That was pretty impressive. I don't think I'd have the nerve to keep doubling down like you did. Actually, when I trade the news I usually do the opposite, taking smaller trades that usual. Anyway, good job... even though you could have LOST pretty ...
