WTF IS THIS?

“Nowhere more so than in FX!”

Did I mysteriously slip into a coma and it’s really Christmas Eve? … is Europe &
Asia on Holiday? … has the coronavirus destroyed brain functioning among the
living? … and you wanna call anything in FX this morning a “market”? … 15
hours into this clusterfark of nothingness to start the week, and EURUSD doesn’t
even have a 29 PIP range … yea, I’ve seen slow before, but this is ridiculous!

A crying shame the shit weasel bullion banks of the LBMA have ruined XAUUSD
with the “traders tax” … I don’t care what the range for the day is, paying $1+
bid/offer spread, then add onto that the inevitable slippage they’re gonna stick
you with, and it’s a “losers proposition” … paying upwards of 4%+ of the day’s
range to make a single trade is defined as “stupid shit” in my book.

Over in “wishful thinking” fantasyland a/k/a stock indices, prices elevating on
“hopium” from Moderna that a vaccine for the coronavirus has been found
… even if true, somebody tell me how all of the millions of jobs & small
businesses that were destroyed come back like nothing ever happened? … how
about the trillions of QE, does that go back into the Genie bottle? … a greater
Ponzi scheme the world has never ever seen before … NIRP here we come!
… make no mistake about it, you are living in a time of the greatest financial
malfeasance, corruption, and future destruction of your wealth & money ever
to hit the world.

Reversal day in FX today, with the small range giving way to the 20 Day Range
MA plus some, near the European close in both EURUSD & GBPUSD … strange
day to say the least, as somebody was hell bent near the close to touch 1.09 in
the Euro straight up the ladder from the 1.08560-ish area, no doubt to set off
perceived buy stops at the century level … a quick glance at the daily
candlesticks, and quite frankly the last 7 trading days have been a joke in terms
of range, given what we’ve seen since late February … meanwhile, gold getting
obliterated, down about $40 off the high … I guess everything is good again,
right? … how does that square with FX going higher? … as I said, strange.

Three algorithm buy signals today in EURUSD … TURNKEY PAMM / MAM UP
RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF 0.1% - 0.2%

All 3 buy signals perfect in terms of all parameters & timing … fills great, and
latency on fills great … why can’t they be like this in their CFD’s? …  and while
it looks like an active day from the daily range of about 120 PIPS, I can assure
you it was anything but that … very brief spurts of trading activity followed by
hour after hour of mind numbing nothingness … as I write, EURUSD breaking
above 1.09 and hitting more buy stops along the way and extending the day’s
range some, around 120 PIPS now, and no doubt the “MOMO” position trend
followers on the daily piling into LONGS cuz their moving averages crossed
over … “yea, good luck with that” … but hey, even a blind squirrel finds a nut
once in a while”! … and of course, the POL Pie Holes are open for business, with
both Merkel & Milksop Macron going “blah blah, yada yada” over a bailout fund
for Europe, and that got the ball rolling … apparently, somebody somewhere got
to both of ‘em and begged for mistress fund relief [with their appropriate cut of
the pie of course!].

European stock indices up big today as well, cuz nothin’ says “stock lovin’” like
free money from the government … ahhh, good times! … death rate going down
now also, so everything is good! … what a farce all of this QE bullshit to infinity
is … this is not gonna end well … but quite frankly I could care less, cuz the
indices outside of the H33HKD are pretty much worthless to trade … high
spreads, and atrocious slippage are the norm, and no thanks.

Europe is now closed & the New York afternoon is upon us, and that means
outta here!... not interested in algorithm signals when the criminal New York
banks are in charge, cuz too much bullshit happens on their watch ..… until
tomorrow mi amigos … Onward & Upward!! 

Have a great day everybody!
