Unsustainable Appetite in FX, Equities & Oil

We're witnessing more signs of peaking appetite, this time inside the individual Forex pairs, as well as more failure in oil and Chinese stocks

Hey Asad ,

The saga going on...i go long ( and i"m sorry if i let you down ) because something is very wrong with oil ( that"s was in my mind ) and because the situation becomes very serious to my account ( ok , i play to the wrong side , i lose a lot , but this is the game , i know the rules - cut this f...ing loose and that"s it ) ... was a hard , expensive and pretty painful lesson for me ...ok...Moe was wright : look on Bloomberg ( i hust type api in the search section and reed the first article ) the stockpiles of crude declined by 6.13 million barrels last week etc.
Right now i am long and i think i will keep it ...i do not know for how long...bur remember something , at least for me , the oil markets it is the most volatile market and 60-70 and maybe better is from speculators , biiiiiiiiiiiig speculators (GS , City , MS , BAC and the rest of the gang:)) , so ...you understand what i mean...in my opinion 70 and even 60 is a over valuation price for oil ...but this is it ... i don"t have the Andrew Hall"s skills and nerves...maybe you are wright wirh the short position...
Finally , if you wannt to ask me me some , do it
Force be with you

Hello Asad ,


Sooo.... was a very hard day to me....
What"s happened to me ( and this is for real , not just words , i can proof that ) : lake i said i was short and around 14.45 gmt , after the news from usa i had some profit , but one of my big enemy - the greedy - make me to do not close the position ... and then the price up and up...lake i said i play on crude brent oil , ICE "s quotes... and in 71.53 i opened a new short position ( lake you ) ...in that moment i made a mistake ( the theory say never build a red bigger position , but in my opinion sometimes , but ONLY SOMETIMES it"s works ) and then ... in 72.23 i made the fatal error to make another short position - better i cut my hand myself :) ... lake i said yesterday i am filling unsecure somehow with this short position and in 73.00 i succobed ...i close the short position with a biiiiig looooose...but now i am long...wait a sec , i will return in few minutes
