Gold & Yen's Perfect Desert Storm

Yen strength still eclipsing USD rebounds during risk aversion. while gold's ascent is better gauged against currencies other than the US dollar.

@Ashraf: Actually, you probably _should_ charge for this stuff. Actually, whatever they are paying you, IT'S NOT ENOUGH!

And we aren't paying you anything, and we should be.

Just to make it clear - I DO read twitter. (I was a bit late to the party, but now I am a faithful follower). For some technical reason I can't yet figure, my laptop (which I depend on, but after this week, surely I can afford a new one ...), does not seem to support Tweetdeck. Wierd problem. I will keep trying....or maybe try another laptop.

Account +69% this week (can't believe this myself, let alone convince anyone else...only a small account in the grand scheme of things, but still) ... this is at least 75% thanks to Ashraf Laidi!

Ashraf - If you don't charge -- you should install a "tolerance meter" for questions asked.

Read my latest IMT on GOLD, and PLEASE get on twitter/IMTS/rest of website so you can READ what ive been saying about gold for past 10 days.


its really very frustrating that i spend hours talking about something only for people to ask me a question without bothering to read about it. if i workhard at analysisng and reading than i expect people to at least read before they ask.

should i start charging for this stuff?

@ PippedOff. GS also being the crowd that called for USD200 oil when it stood around USD140 - days before the plunge. Their credo of sending their staff off to do "good works" in public is nothing more than a means to pack the jury of government power with their own people under a righteous guise. I hope Volker lasts long enough to cut them down to size. Worth watching his interviews on The Charlie Rose show BTW.

@Lilgeo: Nice trade if you got in there. I've been in and out in various places, and made plenty of pips and , but no one continuous trade like that. I closed my last position at 1052, as I didn't want to risk getting stuck near the bottom (?) close to the weekend, then have it shoot up Monday (been there before!). May be a wrong decision, but I've made plenty in the last 2 days, so no point in trying to squeeze out every last pip.

Having said that, as recently as 1 hour ago, Ashraf tweeted this:

"Tenfourty gold can be seen today"

so you _could_ make even more profit.

(That position I closed was from much lower down and could easily have gone into drawdown with the speed gold can move, so that's why I didn't risk it. Your situation is different if you were in from 1116).
