Im showing +38 cents right now.



Im moving to G as well today depending on the late morning action. The downside for strong mornings like this is that it is a good setup to move out right into a -FV.
I things are setting up for a neg FV. There must be a lot of folks like us wanting to lock in profits. I think US may drift down after lunch. Hope I'm wrong.
 
Dollar is getting killed by UK and EU. They have fed type meetings tomorrow I think. Are they going to raise rates? Dollar is back down to near 80 again. It may bounce tomorrow. Meanwhile great day so far today. Bloomberg has us up 1.4%


No meetings tomorrow. That was last week I think. Perhaps the minutes from the meetings tomorrow?

Pound rises after hawkish BoE inflation report

LONDON - The pound strengthened after the Bank of England's quarterly inflation report suggested interest rates will rise to 6.00 pct by the end of the year.

In its quarterly Inflation Report, the BoE said the annual rate of CPI inflation will only fall back towards the 2.0 pct target in two years time if rates rise once more in the next few months.

The central bank said the risks to the near-term inflation profile are slightly higher than they were at the time of the last inflation report in May, but the risks to the medium-term profile are slightly lower.

"On the face of it, the most likely scenario is that the BoE will tighten once again unless there is a surprisingly acute downturn in domestic demand, a sudden retreat in pricing intentio ns or greater dislocation in financial markets," said Daragh Maher, senior forex strategist at Calyon.

"All are possible, so a rate hike is not guaranteed, but it is questionable how long the hawks will be willing to wait before pulling the rate trigger again," he said.

He added that sterling markets have priced in an 80 pct probability of a rate hike happening in November. At present the benchmark rate is at 5.75 pct.

However, if next Wednesday's minutes to August's rate setting meeting reveal any signs that there were calls for a hike, then that probability may rise further, Maher said.
 
Ebb scooted over to G. As one who is still holding/hoping with 100% I the question now is sell some today and lock in profits or stay and hope to recoup the terrible losses from last 2 weeks??? Others?

Ive got to take lunch early today. Showing +42 cents right now. Someone please run it again closer to noon so we can track any potential FV action in the afternoon. Thanks!
 
I'm not sure what index is used primarily for the .5% market movement that would trigger an FV, but the S&P 500 was 1490 at 11:30. That would mean a -FV level would be around 1482.6 at market close.

S&P 500 opened at 1478 this morning.

I'm following Ebb right now so I'm hoping for no -FV.
 
Im staying in 1 more day. This decision could be being influenced by the fact that I have had my ever-widening a$$ handed to me over the last couple weeks due to captivity.

I'm going 100% G today. So I'm thinking positive and hoping for a +FV. That means we need for the SP to close above 1497.4
Hey, it could happen.
 
anyone leaving some in I? I think I'll leave 60% and take the rest to the lilly pad, realizing never to risk it all again!!!! LOL! Hard lesson learned. (:
