I visited Robben Island earlier this year. Very interesting (as was Cape Town generally).

In Thread: EUR
@Xaron: Your Euro short reminds me a bit of that Lloyd Bridges character in "Airplane"

"Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit drinking...." etc.

"Looks like I picked the wrong day to short the Euro...".

- Don't worry, the joke is really on me. I'm also short.

Horribly so.

FWIW, I had been expecting it to fall (continue falling), bearing in mind recent stock market falls, but the SM seems to have stablised, plus a lot of correlations seem to have broken down, at least temporarily.


But I'm trading like a lemon these days, so don't take any notice of what I say :)

@Said: OK, using those dates I see more or less the same numbers as you now.
Having said that, choice of dates seems a little arbitrary, and that's always the problem with trendlines.
But thanks, and it's certainly heading in the direction you indicate.

@Said: Where is the earliest touch on your trendline? (i.e. how far back are you going?).

I think I see what you are getting at, but I can't make it come out with those numbers.

@Asad (or anyone who cares to comment): If the stock market does really crash (and it seems not unlikely), will gold crash with it?

And to think I was long cable earlier today, then thinking I'd made a potentially serious mistake, cut the position for a v. small profit. Oyveh!

Isn't the sharp gold fall and sharp dollar fall (compared to EUR) also a bit strange?
"Interesting" day today.
