Aus, attached is a Bar Clock indicator that I modified somewhat. It will show you the server time and the time the current bar has been active. If your broker is not active yet, it will just show what time they closed until it becomes active.

No, you aren't the only one. The market is very touchy right now and what the feds did on Friday was just a band-aid on a gaping wound. If we get any more bad economic news this week, I think we can easily see another strong reaction to the ...

Incredible — Wow, just wanted to catch up on the last couple pages of the thread. I cannot believe these guys. Please, anyone who doesn't like what Auslanco has to say, or if you don't agree with him, or you think he's full of it, then just ...

LOL, it must be talking in it's sleep to you then I guess that's one thing we won't be able to learn is your gut feelings.

Aus, what did you see to go short? It looked like almost every time frame was bullish at the time. But yet, you were right. How did you figure?

It appears the FTSE opened higher slightly, took a small dive down to negative territory and now has fought it's way back up to the positive side. Now at +22. Meanwhile the Nikkei looks like it closed around -874 or -5.42%

I use FxUniversal which is really FXSol's GTS platform. It has a cost of carry chart that will tell you the percentage you will be paid or pay on each pair for each level of leverage.

I actually changed the maroon line to a lighter color as well and I don't see that one at all, but like you said, Aus doesn't use that one anyway.

Thanks Que, That fixed it. I thought you were purposely trying to make the 3rd line invisible.

Same here. Only the blue line and the 50 level line. Using the default settings.

Maybe some quick stop hunting by some of the brokers

I think so too. We started the week at the 61.8% fib line from last week and it's only gone down since then. Lots of room for a retrace. Plus it is triple interest Wed starting around the world. While the carry trades might be gone for awhile, ...

Wow, it looks like a jackhammer trying to bust through the daily pivot and what I've got as the 61.8 fib from today's bull run.

Thanks, that's a great explanation.

They are talking about the U.S. stock market in general. If it has a good day, the G/J tends to also be bullish during the NY session. If it has a bad day, then the G/J might be bearish for that session as well.

I'm not so sure I would totally blame the dow for this last increase. Just seems like there was general yen weakness across the board. Look at EUR/JPY, USD/JPY, AUD/JPY, NZD/JPY. They all jumped up like the G/J while the GBP/USD, EUR/USD, USD/CAD ...

On the 1 hour chart, I show some retracement confluence at about the 240.87 level. There's the 38.2 fib line from the weekly fibs and the 50 fib line from the last swing hi and swing lo from friday to today. Also, the 21 day SMA crosses just above ...

Just touched the 5SMA on the 30 min chart and is hitting some resistance there.

My broker opened a little over an hour ago (FxSol essentially). Their FxAccucharts show only a 13 pip gap on G/J between Fri and today. My charting package, which is MT4 with a MoneyTec demo account started being active 10 min ago and shows an 80 ...
